Fox calls for repeal of 20th Century….
I found this today, and although I knew it to be true just by the fact that Fox News a.k.a The current Republican Party is anything but fair and balanced….it was helpful that someone took the time to catalog their actual viewpoints.
The full article is posted here.
I can’t do it much more justice than the article itself, but the fact that Fox and Republicans can convince people to vote against their own interests astounds me more every day.
I am constantly shocked by Right-wingers ……
who carry signs that read “keep government out of medicare” (a government program)….
who advocate for personal freedoms and smaller government EXCEPT in the cases of personal choices like woman’s right to choose, when they somehow argue for more government inside our bodies…..
who believe that homosexuality is a choice and still are against it, all the while fighting for their own rights to live freely as they choose…..
who are steadfast in the claim that the country should get back to the constitution, and do exactly what it says, EXCEPT when it comes to the amendments that grant birthright citizenship, all the while refusing to acknowledge that the right to bear arms was not in the original constitution…hence the word AMENDMENT….
who regularly claim that this country is and always was a Christian nation, but refuse to admit that they don’t believe in their neighbor’s flavor of Christianity when it suits them….whether it be Catholic, Protestant, Orthodox (thanks Wikipedia)….
who will willfully ignore the fact that the current democratic administration has lowered taxes on them more than George W. Bush, while rallying as part of a Tea Party to lower taxes, all with the idea that “when I become rich, I won’t want to pay that much tax,” …. which ends up keeping people in poverty and widens the income gap even more.
Like i said…it makes me crazy.
Someone made a few tshirts that sum up a couple of good points too:
The one on the left is a little bit far…but replace the word “homeless” with the words “animals from a plane” and you’ve got an accurate slogan there too.
