Will Republicans Opt for More Hate vs. Hope Tonight?
Filed under: Presidential Campaign 2008, Republican National Convention
What is it with these people? Are they all idiots? Does every Jack and Jill in the Hall at the RNC actually think that there is room in these United States — that there is any consideration in the idea that is ‘America’ — for some of us not to be patriot-worthy — because we disagree with them?
I’m speaking of the “Country First” signs being waved around in the martial mob that is the conclave in Minneapolis-St. Paul.
The implied message behind the mob is that if you aren’t there waving the sign with them – or just cheering at home — you don’t put your country first.
Well, this proud Navy veteran who was for the Iraq war before we legalized torture and found out the neocons cooked the intelligence books would just as soon piss in the Republican Party’s general direction (and all over one of those stupid fucking signs) than listen to one more straw-man building, country-dividing, fundie pandering line of BS from this convention.
I feel better now.
