Democrats SUCK!!

[Y]

Not me.  I stand for the United States of American Flag and YOU WILL NEVER see me burn it like you ilk is doing.

A flag is nothing but a piece of cloth and not at all any of the nationalist, quasi-religious, bull-pucky you want to keep infusing in it.

Burn it and a nation isn't destroyed.  Burn it and its people aren't destroyed. 

Burn it and the nation's government isn't destroyed.  Burn it and our laws aren't destroyed.

Do you get the drift now?  The flag is nothing.  Your ilk should stop trying to wrap yourself in it.

[Y]

Owning our shit.

This is the best thought, and the best two lines in the piece:

She fought an honorable fight against racism because in the end, that's what people voted in favor of. "Take back America" and "make America great again" weren't about the economy; they were code for "don't let the brown man be equal to us".

As someone else said, this election was 'whitelash'.

As the article points out, Democratic/Progressive etc. voter apathy allowed racists, bigots, and authoritarians gain control of our nation's government(s).

While we can blame the nation's racists, bigots, and authoritarians for the result, we knew what they were, and we deliberately failed to stop them.  They only had the numbers to succeed in their takeover because the Democrats/Progressives didn't take their societal responsibility seriously enough to get off their duff in masses enough to stop those racists, bigots, and authoritarians from acquiring the seats of power.

This reminds me of the election of Richard Nixon as president - and prior to that Ronnie Ray-gun as governor of California - with what I won't be surprised with as the same results.

Paul Ryan said, I am shutting down Medicare in 2017. 

LIE...

Another lie from Hank.

Ryan Plans to Phase Out Medicare in 2017

...Paul Ryan has been pushing to phase out Medicare and replace it with private insurance for several years. But now it's real with unified Republican government. He just said he will try to rush it through early next year while repealing Obamacare...

...I've heard a few people say that it's not 100% clear here that Ryan is calling for Medicare Phase Out. It is 100% clear. Ryan has a standard, openly enunciated position in favor of Medicare Phase Out. It's on his website...

I agree, Y.  I feel the same way when people get all upset about not standing for the national anthem.  Do these people stand for the anthem when they are watching a game in their home?  I don't think so. 

[The Troll]

  There was a movie theater in Anderson Indiana that before the show started he would play the National Anthem.  I was there one night and he played it and I didn't stand up.  A young punk behind me start to give a ration of shit over it.    I told him I paid to watch the movie, not to stand up.  Then I ask him if he have been the military, he said no.    I told him I had spent my time there and to sit down and shut up.     He sat down and he shut upped.

Here's your BLM people Obama thinks is a great movement.

Explain this one.

That was explained by the White House at the time.  The president had a slip of the tongue and misspoke.

Hilarious: Letter To The Editor "12 Reasons I Voted Democratic" By Phoenix Brooks |

Facebook
JAMES ANDERSON, OF TALLADEGA, AL, SUBMITTED A LETTER TO THE EDITOR IN THE SCOTTSBORO DAILY SENTINEL THAT FEATURED THE 12 REASONS WHY HE VOTES FOR DEMOCRATS EVERY ELECTION CYCLE. HIS REASONS ARE A RIOT, AND SINCE THEIR APPEARANCE IN NOVEMBER OF 2012, THEY HAVE GONE VIRAL, SPREADING LAUGHS ACROSS THE COUNTRY. SINCE WE ARE IN AN ELECTION YEAR, IT MIGHT BE APPROPRIATE TO REVISIT THE ARTICLE.

1. I VOTED DEMOCRATIC BECAUSE I LOVE THE FACT THAT I CAN NOW MARRY WHATEVER I WANT. I NOW MAY MARRY MY LABRADOR.

2. I VOTED DEMOCRATIC BECAUSE I BELIEVE OIL COMPANIES'  PROFITS OF 4% ON A GALLON OF GAS ARE OBSCENE BUT THE GOVERNMENT TAXING THE SAME GALLON OF GAS AT 15% ISN'T.

3. I VOTED DEMOCRATIC BECAUSE I BELIEVE THE GOVERNMENT WILL DO A BETTER JOB OF SPENDING THE MONEY I EARN THAN I WOULD.

4. I VOTED DEMOCRATIC BECAUSE FREEDOM OF SPEECH IS FINE AS LONG AS I AGREE WITH WHAT IS SAID AND NOBODY ELSE IS OFFENDED BY IT.

5. I VOTED DEMOCRATIC BECAUSE I'M WAY TOO IRRESPONSIBLE TO OWN A GUN AND I KNOW THAT MY LOCAL POLICE ARE ALL I NEED TO PROTECT ME FROM MURDERERS AND THIEVES.

6. I VOTED DEMOCRATIC BECAUSE I BELIEVE THAT PEOPLE WHO CAN'T TELL US IF IT WILL RAIN ON FRIDAY CAN TELL US THAT THE POLAR ICE CAPS WILL MELT AWAY IN 10 YEARS IF I DON'T START DRIVING A PRIUS.

7. I VOTED DEMOCRATIC BECAUSE I'M NOT CONCERNED ABOUT MILLIONS OF BABIES BEING ABORTED SO LONG AS WE KEEP ALL DEATH ROW INMATES ALIVE.

8. I VOTED DEMOCRATIC BECAUSE I THINK ILLEGAL ALIENS HAVE A RIGHT TO FREE HEALTH CARE, EDUCATION, AND SOCIAL SECURITY BENEFITS, AND WE SHOULD TAKE AWAY THE SOCIAL SECURITY FROM THOSE WHO PAID INTO IT.

9. I VOTED DEMOCRATIC BECAUSE I BELIEVE THAT BUSINESSES SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED TO MAKE PROFITS FOR THEMSELVES. THEY NEED TO BREAK EVEN AND GIVE THE REST AWAY TO THE GOVERNMENT FOR REDISTRIBUTION AS THE DEMOCRATS SEE FIT.

10. I VOTED DEMOCRATIC BECAUSE I BELIEVE LIBERAL JUDGES NEED TO REWRITE THE CONSTITUTION EVERY FEW DAYS TO SUIT SOME FRINGE KOOKS WHO WOULD NEVER GET THEIR AGENDAS PAST THE VOTERS.

11. I VOTED DEMOCRATIC BECAUSE I THINK THAT IT'S BETTER TO PAY BILLIONS FOR THEIR OIL TO PEOPLE WHO HATE US BUT NOT DRILL OUR OWN BECAUSE IT MIGHT UPSET SOME ENDANGERED BEETLE, SPOTTED OWL, GOPHER OR FISH.

12. I VOTED DEMOCRATIC BECAUSE MY HEAD IS SO FIRMLY MISPLACED TOWARD THE SOUTH END OF MY BODY; IT'S UNLIKELY THAT I'LL EVER HAVE ANOTHER POINT OF VIEW.

NO TREES, SPOTTED OWLS, OR RED COCK-HEADED WOODPECKERS WERE HARMED IN THE SENDING OF THIS MESSAGE.

"12 Reasons I Voted Democratic"

Why I voted Republican:

1.       I voted Republican because you can blame problems on poor people instead of the rich ones who actually run things.

2.       I voted Republican because firefighters and teachers are scum-sucking leaches, but the oil companies raking in record profits NEED those hundreds of millions in taxpayer subsidies.

3.       I voted Republican because I believe companies like my cable TV provider, insurance company and credit card  company could do a better job running the country than the government, no matter how much they screw me over.

4.       I voted Republican because I don't trust the government, although I favored the government spying on my health/financial records and tapping my phone when Bush was in office to keep us safe from 'trrists.

5.       I voted Republican because I don't really care whether terrorists, murderers and drug dealers own guns or not.

6.       I voted Republican because I believe climate change doesn't exist; if I can't see it with my own two eyes, it doesn't exist.  Like gravity.

7.       I voted Republican because I hate women having abortions, but once the baby is born and dies from a preventable illness that' okay.

8.       I voted Republican because I believe in laying off workers to boost profits; then I get to complain about lazy unemployed people.

9.       I voted Republican because I understand capitalism.  Demand doesn't increase jobs...ensuring corporations pay no taxes and cutting healthcare and education does.

10.   I voted Republican because I care about the deficit and support cutting services that I really need.  But extra tax cuts for the superrich that actually caused the deficit should be extended indefinitely.

11.   I voted Republican because I believe in never having to  solve any problems in the government because I insist government is the problem anyway.

12.   I voted Republican because I hate activist judges, unless they are conservative (Yes, corporations should get to spend unlimited money in elections).

13.   I voted Republican because spite and fear is better than hope and change.

Would be nice if our POTUS would address what happened in Ohio and thank the officer who was on scene. Giving condolences to the families of those hurt would be nice too.
