New Right Wing Talking Points

"Lame stream media".  It means any media outlet who reports the truth, and not the Right Wing party line.

"Ask about the $150K the Obama administration offered, Reverend Wright to shut up."  Totally bullshit story, started by Glenn Beck.  It has no basis in fact.  As, Bill Maher says about Mormonism, "A religion so crazy, Tom Cruise WOULDN'T join it, but, Glenn Beck DID!"

"Drink the Kool Aid".  This one is really a stretch.  The phrase goes back to the Jonestown Cult (who, by the way, were religious nuts.  Like Republicans) who all took poison in Kool Aid, because their leader told them to.  But it wasn't, Kool Aid.  It was, Flavor Aid.  They were too cheap to buy the higher quality, Kool Aid.

And it implies that since we believe what Liberals know to be truth, and we believe in science and reality, instead of bullshit and religion?  We have drunk the Kool Aid of our, "cult".

Well, if your supporting a guy for President, who's a Mormon?  And you think I'M a member of a cult?  I have my doubts about you being Kool Aid free.  But I'm pretty much OK with my not having had THAT drink.

Trying to debate politics with Republicans these days is like arguing with a four year old.  The only answer you get is not a reasoned, fact based argument.  It's just, "IknowyouarebutwhatamI!"  Or, a long list of the talking points, and bullshit outlined above.

Ronald Regan was the devil.  He was awful for American politics.  But credit where it's due.  He sure taught the dumb how to stick to the talking points, and win elections.  Because he made sure that having an education, and actually knowing what's going on around you, didn't matter!

You just stay on message, even if the message is AGAINST you!

As Forrest Gump says, "Stupid is, as stupid does".  And stupid votes for Republicans, even when you're poor and don't have health insurance for you or your kids, and you're out of work, and you're convinced Unions are ruining the country and you only finished high school.  Who do you think gave you a weekend, dumb ass?

You're stupid if you vote for Republicans and you hate a national health care plan.  Who's going to pay for your health care when you retire from you shitty job, and your employer no longer has to?

You're stupid if you think the Democrats are FOR abortion.  No one is FOR abortion.  But we want women to make their own choices.  We want them to do it, instead of Orrin Hatch.  Is that so wrong?

You're stupid if you think the Democrats are coming for your guns.  Based on what?  Mitt (I torture my dog) Romney told the NRA convention last month, that, "Obama is coming for your guns."

Oh yeah?  The only two gun laws Obama has signed allow you to take a gun on an Amtrak Train, and into a National Park.  Yep, he's out to get your gun.

I'm a left wing, Liberal, Democrat who's traveled to places you Republicans fear.  Like France, and England, and Canada because they have, "Socialized Medicine".  You know what?  Everything Faux News tells you about how the folks their hate their socialized medicine is bullshit!  They LOVE it!

And it's a lot cheaper than medical care here!

You right wingers believe bullshit, even when it's in your own self interest to disregard it.  Cause you're stupid.

Stupid is the new, right wing talking point.

If it's supported by science, or reason, or someone who won a Pulitzer Prize, or Nobel Peace Prize, it has to be wrong!

Dumb.  Republicans are dumb.  They willfully deny science.  And that's stupid.

Even Forrest Gump had COMMON sense.  Today's Republicans?  Not so much.
