They can change the name of it all they want but Bull S---- is Still B.S.
Call it manure, call it dung, it doesn't matter it is still Bull Sh--.
They have been the party of, for and by the rich for years so why would the working middle class or anybody else believe any of their new Bull Sh--?
Maybe they should change some of the people that run their party.
Look at the Speaker of the house, He said over and over again from the frist of the year that the House was NOT going to put a spending bill out until the Sen. did,[ that they already had two passed by the House and had sent them to the Sen.]
Well I guess somsbody must have told him that any bills that the last Congress put forth do not carry over to the new Congress and it is the job of the House and NOT the Sen. to put forth spending bills.
Have a nice night

Their only chance is Chris Christy, but they have rejected him

I think it would be funny if he went Democrat and won the Whitehouse in 2016

With Loonie Tune followers like Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, Neocunt and Jimmy Z can you blame them?

What are you talking about?
Why don't you step back and take a look at just what the Republican party has become.
Take care of the rich and screw everybody else.
They don't give a s--- about the people on S.S.[ people that paid in to the system for years and the GOV. took that money to run the Gov. and now when it is time to pay it back the Repub. want to call it an entitlement program and want to cut it to the bone.]
If you look at it over 3 TRILLION dollars of our National debt is owed to the S.S. system, I guess they think by cutting back on what thay pay out to the people they owe money to will make everything better.[ and the S.S. systen needs 3.5Trillion to beable to run for the next 75 years then add in what they take in in taxes and it should be fine]
ONE of the things they never should have done was make a law that allowed them to take all the money that was left over from what they paid out in S.S. Ben. and put it in the Gen. Fund.
Well it is time to change the law and make the GOV. keep their hands OFF the S.S. system and make them start paying back what they owe the S.S. system.
They did it back in the 50s when thay took money from it to pay for WWII , paid all that back, and IF we had NOT kept cutting taxes and used some of that money to pay back the S.S. system there would be more than enough money to pay S.S. ben. for years to come.

You may not agree with their political beliefs, but those people you listed are not stupid. They are highly intelligent and have advanced degrees from very reputable institutions. Most of the Conservatives like Limbaugh and Palin are either college dropouts or community college tards. "W" would have been a community college tard if his daddy and granddaddy had not gotten into Yale with their money and Skull and Bones influence. Of course, the Dems also have a few dummies like Al Gore

They want to rebrand themselves now granting benefits to same-sex couples as civil unions, before younger voters permanently brands republicans as intolerant. This is their plan to attract racial minorities, women and young voters embracing a more socially liberal stance. Political spectrum is left or right, we have socialism or capitalism, they lie so much they have confused themselves. There plan is not to change their policies but to do a better job to paint a pretty picture of the party's positions and win back voters.
They will always be the haves and promote have not’s to push around.

The Republicans are pandering to the homosexuals because many homosexual couples have two-income households with no children. They pay alot of taxes,so they are fiscal conservatives , but not social conservatives. Many neocon politicians are closeted "airport men's room toe tappers"

Daddy and his fiends got "W" out of an AWOL charge.[ a one year drunk ]
They must have paid off a lot of people seeing "W" went AWOL for a year in the time of war.
IF a reg. guy had gone AWOL for a year back then [ durring a war]he would be just getting out of jail now, but not "W"
Daddy and his friends pulled even more strings to cover up what "W" did and got away with.

I'd like to see Carl Paladino governor if he DID "pander" to (what I call) the "1970s-era social 'liberation' movements": Not just leaving legal same-sex marriage alone in New York, but legally-controlled (not merely 'decrimmed') marijuana, and leaving Roe v. Wade alone too even if individual states can still put their own tight restrictions on abortion.

Regarding the middle one I'm a diciple of what's called the "REVERSE gateway-drug theory of pot": As long as it's illegal adult users have to patronize clandestine dealers who often sell other drugs, and it is this exposure that's the temptation to "move on" and not the intrinsic nature of weed.

Same goes for 'stoners' who eventually drift toward New Age-y attitudes and lifestyles (what our generation called the 'granola-hippie Gandhi syndrome')- this TOO is an indirect result of its PROHIBITION, and not due to some strange inexplicable Eastern/Jainist spirit within it!!!

I would expect that you would show admiration for the toe tappers. After all, that is such a plainly visible sign that they are trying to reach across the political isle.

With that logic there shouldn't be very many alcoholics around should there? Alcohol is natural too! Wait now hold on a minute...you are a stoner aren't you?

Anyone that gets a hold of the seeds can grow the crap. The dealers come in because of two reasons: the laziness of the the nominal pothead prevents them from growing their own AND the nominal junky wants to get the most wasted for their time so they have to choose the dealer to get the "good sh!t". You see, it's an addiction just like other drugs. Addicts crave it just like addicts crave alcohol, coke or heroin. It takes on different forms, but the addiction is there.

In the words of Charles Bukowski- "I don't care if two men want to sleep together so long as I am not one of them"

I have more respect for Barney Frank because he is honest about his gayness and there is no wife being deceived and no children being destroyed when the Republican toe tapper gets discovered in the closet

President Jimmy Carter, summer, 1977: "Penalties against possession of a drug should not be more damaging to an individual than the use of the drug itself". Marijuana MOST ASSUREDLY fits in this category, and that statement ALSO means if legal alcohol and tobacco are more damaging than marijuana (which they are) then there is NO valid reason for outlawing the latter, and in fact to do so is tantamount to a 'persecution' rather than well-intentioned 'nannyism'.

I've always considered the fight for DEFACTO, LEGAL-AND-'LUXURY'-TAXED marijuana for adult use more of a 'culture wars' issue than a "drug" issue for this very reason, and even to this day there are Harry Anslinger / Carlton Turner / Richard Nixon / fictional Sgt. Joe Friday types still out there who actually agree with Carter, but noneheless still think cannabis in raw,'unprocessed' bud form should remain illegal because it tends to attract the (various) kinds of people that they just tend to hate in general!

This PERSECUTION must end, and as an economic bonus New York State could use the revenue as well instead of clandestine sources.

Daily Horoscope for May 18

Aquarius

Watch out if you're going shopping, because you'll be tempted to splash out on impulse buys. This doesn't matter so much if you're feeling flush, but it could cause problems if you're supposed to be counting every penny. Whatever the state of your finances, you may buy items you don't need and possibly even won't like when you look at them again tomorrow.
