Why I hate Republicans Part III

[Taverner]

- They claim to be 'persecuted' as Christians, yet they howl in terror if a Muslim wants to build a Mosque 2 freakin' blocks away from the WTC.

- They go after Rangel and Waters like there's no tomorrow, but they have no problem with Tom DeLay being as corrupt as he is.

- Extraordinary Climate Change is taking place as we speak, yet like a child denying he did anything wrong, they scream 'there's no such thing as global warming'

1. Taking off from your last one

They don't "believe" in anthropogenic global climate change despite a mountain of scientific, peer-reviewed evidence, but have no problem asserting as fact that President Obama is a foreign born secret Muslim based on little more than the red-crayon scribblings of media half-wits you wouldn't trust around the corner with a burnt-out match.

2. And Jimmy Carter is the Worst American in US history!

:wow:

I'm still trying to get my mind around that one.

In my book, Jimmy Carter is one of the Heroes. As are the majority of those on their sh** list.

My list for Worst American So Far would have Dick Cheney up front and center - for all the death and destruction that his actions and policies - have directly and indirectly been responsible for - not only to his fellow Americans but to the global community. I remain convinced that he was one of those who encouraged Bush I to launch the First Gulf War (not that Bush I needed much encouragement) so he has blood on his hands from that one too.

3. My dad (a wingnut amongst wingnuts) says he thinks Carter was a Soviet Agent

Trained to deliver the West into the hands of Communism - - and this is today, not when he was pres

5. Yikes ...

I can't even imagine what he bases that theory on. But it must be prevalent among the wingnuts.

Does he know that Carter was a graduate of the US Naval Academy (graduating 59th out of a class of 820 - take that John McCain!), served in the US Navy and would have made it his career but for the death of his father when he had to return to Georgia to manage the family business? Unlike Bush II, Carter was successful in his business attempts. I wonder when he had any time - given that his life was transparent and he was living and working where he was well-known - to become a Soviet Agent - especially without anyone in Georgia noticing. It boggles the mind.

I wonder how many of the wingnuts actually a) served in the US military and b) ran successful businesses. It seems to me that Republicans talk a lot about it but Democrats actually do both.

6. Yes he does, but he fosters all kinds of RW conspiracy theories

Obama is the AntiChrist, Nixon was innocent, Reagan is the greatest President ever to inhabit the White House...etc...

4. Right...persecuted

I think Atheists are persecuted more than Christians, but that's my opinion. Besides, when was the last time we heard the term "anti-christian" violence?
