Republican Party, Teabag Party and the Libertarian Party absolutely SUCK!

[Lester Sasquatch]

  I bet a retirement check that if Obama presented a bill to drop out of NAFTA.  The Republican Party would vote 100% against.  Want to bet.

  Do you think they should cut the wages of the minumum wage workers.

  Make a waitress and waiters work for tips only.  Hell they are trying to get you to check yourself out at the stores.

  Do you  think they should get rid of Social Security and put it in the stock market.

  Do  you think they should get rid of Medicare and let the private insurance companies  handle all of it.

  Stop all abortions, even if its rape, incest or the life of the mother.

  If you answer yes to any of these questions YES, your a Republican.

  What is your answers to these questions Lester.

1. I agree with you.
2. Actually the way it works is that the employer must make up the difference if the workers tips come up to less than $7.25 an hour. Some places take the total amount of the customer's receipts, multiply them by 15%, and put it down as income for the employee regardless whether the customer left a tip or not. I think this sucks.
3. No, but they should also not use it for any other purpose that the one it was collected for either. Both parties have dipped into the SS funds. This is wrong.
4. I don't really have an opinion other than if someone is anti-abortion it should be for all abortions with no exclusions. I lean towards allowing a woman to do what she wants with her body though, it is her business and not the governments. But I also think that they should let her smoke a joint in her own home if she want to.

EDIT- I forgot the medicare question. Certainly not, maybe try to root out all the fraud but otherwise leave medicaire alone.

  You would have my heart Lester, if a Troll had a heart.  But your sure have my thanks for being a good person.

  By chance have you seen how the Tea Party candidates are hiding out from the news media.  Hiding and keeping their mouths shut.  Hoping that the people will forget the stupid and crazy things they have said and the things they want to do to the middle class and the senior citizens.

  Oh, how I hope the American can see through the lies and bullshit.  We don't need a Hoover Depression.  Less us   Hell that won't work, they got God on their side.    It would be funny, if they weren't trying to kill us and America.

Troll, earlier I posted my opinion about abortion in response to your question. I would like to take this opportunity to expand on my answer.

I believe that abortion is wrong but at the same time think it is not a the government's job to get involved in the issue. Just like some folks believe that the consumption of alcohol is morally wrong yet it is still legal for those over 21. Please note that I am using this an example, I personally see no moral conflict in having a drink. Where I am not yet certain of is the rights of the biological father. Since the fetus is also part of the father, without whom the pregnancy would not be possible, I feel that he should have a hand in the decision. Now let me make it clear that the woman should certainly be compensated should the decision be made that she carry the child to full term and, upon delivery if she does not want the child, the father will assume full custody and responsibility. If this is the case, it is my opinion that the father should pay for all the medical expenses and a monthly stipend to the woman bearing the child. A payment that increases in amount each month until the child is born. That way, in the unfortunate event of a miscarriage, the father would no longer be required to continue payments as long as all of the incurred medical costs have been paid. Now I am at a loss as to the amount of compensation that should be made. Obviously I have never experienced carrying a baby but from observation see that it becomes more uncomfortable as time goes on. During the first trimester for example I do not feel that the payment should as much as the latter stages. I would think that if the woman works and has to take time off, she should be paid above and beyond what she would normally receive in wages.

While this proposition can certainly be improved on, it is something I think is better than not giving the biological father any input on the destiny of his own flesh and blood. I am still undecided about cases of rape or incest but lean towards not giving this option to the father and the decision is at the discretion of the woman. On the other hand, I find it hard to punish an innocent child for the manner in which it was conceived. Then again, the other option is like punishing the innocent woman so it is hard for me to arrive at a firm decision. The reason I wanted to make this post is to clarify the fact that I feel that abortion is not a good thing but, like I said, there are some things that the government has no business sticking their nose in. Usually I am pretty set in my opinions but not in the case of abortion. I guess this is mainly because I could never imagine myself in the place of a pregnant woman and how she might feel both physically and emotionally.

  I don't like abortion anymore that anyone else.  But most of the boys and men to knockup the girls and women and won't pay for the fun, were more interested in knooky than anything else.

NOBODY SHOULD CONTROL A WOMAN'S BODY BUT THAT WOMAN OR THAT GIRL.  NOBODY, EVER!

  I wish that we could put something in a baby girl that would keep her from getting pregnant until she's at least 21  years old.  It will never happen.  If I could make it happen, I would.

Unfortunately, pregnancy is the least of a young woman's worries. If there were such a device, my fear would be that it would give young naive girls a false sense of security so that they'd neglect to protect themselves against disease, HIV or AIDS.

As for abortion, I agree that the decision rests entirely w/the individual. My beliefs really don't matter. I wouldn't assume to force my beliefs on anyone, not even my own daughter re: the subject.

The Republicans claim they want less government, but would like nothing better than to tell a woman what she can do with her body, an individual who they should marry and force words in our mouths such as the pledge. Basically legislate perceived morality on the individual level.

  It really boils down to the Republicans Party values.  DO AS I SAY, NOT AS I DO.  Old Newt Grindrich who told his second wife out of three.  And after he told her that he was still going to screw around on her with the third woman who turned out to be his third wife.

  His second wife asked him about trying to empeach Bill Clinton for the same thing.  To which he replyed.  "It is not what I do, it what I say to the American people that counts."

  This is what the Republican Party preaches and the Republican Party does.  And there is some many stupid religious people and just plain dumbasses who can't see it.

  Well, I seen all of the Tea Party candidates, talk about a bunch of Loony Toons character's not a smart one in the group.  I hope none are elected because they are no good for the Republican Party and absolutely no good for the middle class and America.

Now, right out of the gate, I am admitting this is an opinion piece. But there are some interesting facts buried in it (with the corroborating links) which give me pause. I hope they give all of you pause too.

For example:

At a time of two wars, when thousands of veterans are returning with terrible mental and physical problems, Angle also has signaled that she's interested in privatizing the veterans' health care system. That has spooked Jonathan Abbinett, 57, a disabled combat veteran who served in Vietnam and the Persian Gulf War. "I risked my life -- I sweated, I cried, I bled for America," he said. "And the promise is, I get my health care."

followed by this:

Nor can Angle claim the high ground when it comes to dependence on government -- her husband, a retired Bureau of Land Management employee, gets a federal pension and federal health insurance...

And there are others.

Government aid has flowed to a company owned by Wisconsin's Ron Johnson. Miller received federal subsidies for farmland he owned in Kansas. Paul, an ophthalmologist with many patients on Medicare, wants the government to cut spending -- but not Medicare reimbursements. "Physicians should be allowed to make a comfortable living," he said.

Which leads to the conclusion...

There's nothing wrong with any of that, if only the recipients would acknowledge that other people are no less deserving of government help and protection. Alternatively, they could stick to the principle that the feds should stay out of the aid business, whether it's for the jobless, the elderly, farmers, corporations or themselves. But is that what we really want? "It all comes down to selfishness or selflessness," said Abbinett, the disabled veteran. This year's anti-government candidates, almost all of whom have jobs, money, health insurance and good educations, should consider his words.

Ya know those posters of George W that say "Do you miss me yet?"  Here's one flaming liberal who does. The current fashion is to accuse the Obama administration of promoting socialism. But has anyone else noticed the aim of the Tea Baggers seems to be a return to feudal customs?

[Henry Hawk]

I know I am supposed to stay out of this stuff, but....I'm so tired of the "tea baggers" are this and that....All the tea party attendee is,nothing more and nothing less of AMERICANS who are fed up with government OVERspending...there are a few loonies, but the vast majority of them have NO agenda, other than restore Washington back into doing what they are supposed to do, other than SPEND, SPEND, SPEND and to scale BACK the powers of Government....Sharron Angle may not be the BEST, but who IS?...and she is only one person...but she represents a much better figure than Harry Freakin Reed...

There is a reason WHY, those "tea party" candidates  have jobs, money, health insurance and good educations and that is because they do NOT rely on the Government to take care of EVERY freakin problem....AND that is what THEY want to bring back to the table, enabling Americans to be able to accomplish these things without Governments help but rather getting our economy back into the hands of the private sector, and allowing THEM to create jobs, Healthcare and GOOD educations...

[The Troll]

  Yeah Henry, let us go back to he 1800s.  Life was so good back them.

  God love those God loving assholes Teabaggers who wants to put the poor, poor people into poverty with doing away with the minimum wage and let's put all of these poor poor old people on Social Security into starvation.

  Putting SS it into the stock market.  Doing away with Medicare and Medicaid, instead of putting destitute poor people into a nursing home when ill and down and out, hell, let the Teabaggers kill them.

  Hell let's get the poor waitress and waiters and let them work for just tips.  So the tight, cheap people, who eat there and don't leave tips can really help the poor workers.  And the people to own the restaurants keep all of the money.  God is great.

  Damn I hate cheap, greedy, robbing, stealing and lying Republican Teabaggers.

what in the hell are YOU talking about?.........you have swallowed so much liberal Kool=ade, I bet your mouth is red as a baboons behind....

  Oh, my dumbass Teabagger, you haven't been listening to the your Teabaggers friends have been saying and drinking.  How about Joe Brown from Alaska, Christine O'Donnell,  I'm not a witch, Rand Paul, Sharron Angle and the Mayor candidate for New York. "I'll take you out".

  What I don't get is how someone who is college educated wants to put the dumbasses in control of our government.  Also I don't think you GREAT TEA PARTY WIN is really going to happen,  more like a fart in an Indiana wind storm.  Not much of a smell.

[Lester Sasquatch]

Who the heck is Joe Brown from Alaska? Is he on of those guys who fish for crabs on TV? What's he got to do with the tea party?
