things republicans believe

Published May. 14, 2008

Just to be fair -

Things you have to believe to be a Republican today:

Saddam was a good guy when Reagan armed him, a bad guy when Bush's daddy made war on him, a good guy when Cheney did business with him, and a bad guy when Bush needed a "we can't find Bin Laden" diversion.

Trade with Cuba is wrong because the country is communist, but trade with China and Vietnam is vital to a spirit of international harmony.

The United States should get out of the United Nations, and our highest national priority is enforcing U.N. resolutions against Iraq.

A woman can't be trusted with decisions about her own body, but multi-national corporations can make decisions affecting all mankind without regulation.

Jesus loves you, and shares your hatred of homosexuals and Hillary Clinton.

The best way to improve military morale is to praise the troops in speeches while slashing veterans' benefits and combat pay.

If condoms are kept out of schools, adolescents won't have sex.

A good way to fight terrorism is to belittle our long-time allies, then demand their cooperation and money.

Providing health care to all Iraqis is sound policy. Providing health care to all Americans is socialism.

HMOs and insurance companies have the best interests of the public at heart.

Global warming and tobacco's link to cancer are junk science, but creationism should be taught in schools.

A president lying about an extramarital affair is a impeachable offense. A president lying to enlist support for a war in which thousands die is solid defense policy.

Government should limit itself to the powers named in the Constitution, which include banning gay marriages and censoring the Internet.

The public has a right to know about Hillary's cattle trades, but George Bush's drunk driving record and cocaine arrest are none of our business.

Being a drug addict is a moral failing and a crime, unless you're a conservative radio host. Then it's an illness, and you need our prayers for your recovery.

You support states' rights, which means Attorney General John Ashcroft can tell states what local voter initiatives they have the right to adopt.

Clinton's business interests in the 1970s in which he lost money are of vital national interest, but Bush's activities in the 1980s in which he made money under questionable circumstances is unimportant.

That was my high school graduation class. Look at today's times and how things have changed and the population has flowed. The barriers that are in place to raising children and all the times the government has stepped in to make things better. What can't we have classes on teaching how to overcome any obstacles and how to self help your self. Teach self respect. Faith in themselves. If the little kinds can grow up learning that, then maybe they wiill not make the stupid sex mistakes and getting pregnant just for the heck of it knowing that they can just have an innocent life ripped out and move on to more mistakes. who needs BC with abortion. It would be different if I hadn't learned that that fetus is in pain when the abortions are given and that is where I think we need we need to review the research learned on fetal development and the nerves developing on these infants. I understand their pain sessory is developed a lot earlier than first thought

The question you ask could be countered to a conservative - How can the far right conservatives advocate teaching abstinence in school, then not allow abortion when a pregnancy occurs and then not want to give any financial assitance once that baby is born?

It's hard for me to debate so intensely when I have seen the degrading of our own children who attend school, becasue when I went to school the incentitive was not to get pregnant becasue first of all mama and daddy will kill ya, and you can't graduate high school. We had one out of about 70 that got pregnant and she had gotten secretly married. What are the odds now on children who have had this sex education.

wcnc - Sounds good to me.

This is funny! As usual the "Dimo-cr*ps" remember only half of the story then lie about the rest! Bill Clinton made china an equal trading partner and so on! You can't correct all of these lies.This guy I'm sure has been fabricating this list of cr*p for days(or months)the slow witted do that! And yes Hillary probably knows Jesus she has been around a long time...I'm sure she had a pet tyannosurs (t-rex for all you dimo-cr*ps)!

"gzchem- Please use your brain......The Bush admin says that Al Queda did 9/11 but that Irag was giving them funds and a place to train, which I believe is true given that Sadaam hated us and could care less who these terrorists hurt...."

wow, someone has been duped. i thought most people that this was false. especially after the pentagon released documents that refuted this.

"Ken D- that's your opinion and in mine, you've been fooled!! I don't listen to the media, I read and discuss with those who know and make my decisions instead of listening to people with an agenda and follow after them."

so do you talk to saddam, or member's of al queda or something? where's this "inside" knowledge coming from?

Ken D- that's your opinion and in mine, you've been fooled!! I don't listen to the media, I read and discuss with those who know and make my decisions instead of listening to people with an agenda and follow after them.

...the truth about Saddam and Alqaida is, Saddam Hussein asked Bin Laden to leave and that he didn't want his "help". Bin Laden was a threat to Saddam and his way of life. If we kill Bin Laden, he becomes a martyr to create more extremists...We have to capture him and we are not really sure he is even still alive due to his nephrological problems...

jabrn- OK, I'll give you those stats, but then why doesn't the government say that all women on welfare must be on birth control (the shot or implant, not the pill where we just have to trust these women will be responsible!!). If the government is paying her support, the government should have some say in how she lives her life.....And for those who think it's an invasion of privacy or some other right, then they can take themselves off of government assistance..... SO, with your stats, we could decrease abortions by maybe 25% just by doing that. Then, increase education for birth control in the other age groups and decrease the "price"of adoptions and educate more on that and we might be able to keep abortion legal (making the libs happy) while severely decreasing the number of abortions (making the conservatives happy).......How does that sound??

"gzchem- Please use your brain......The Bush admin says that Al Queda did 9/11 but that Irag was giving them funds and a place to train, which I believe is true given that Sadaam hated us and could care less who these terrorists hurt...."

Shows that you can fool some of the people all of the time.

Gafan - I would love to see reform across the board with "entitlement" programs... I think as a country we should help those get an education and help them become independent... Now the system is so broken it doesn't encourage indepence it makes those on it more dependent... I am not for a blank check. Honestly with our three choices right now for pres. is anything really going to change? NOPE - it will be the same ol' same ol'...
