KarmaOverDogma's Journal: What It Takes To be a Republican

This is perfect for my first Journal Entry.

I'm not against Republicans Universally, but the general gist of Hypocrisy that the Republican Party engages in on a National Scale is nevertheless, IMO, well illustrated in a very humerous way below. (I cannot take credit for this message, which was forwarded to me in an email).

It is also worth noting that I am sure that Democrats can just as easily have their own Hypocrisy list as well. I would love to see one.

Here it is:

If the truth doesn't set you free, at least it can make you laugh...

                What it takes to be a Republican

A woman can't be trusted with decisions about her own body, but multi-national corporations can make decisions affecting all humankind 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.

Group sex and drug use are degenerate sins unless you someday run for governor of California as a Republican.

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.

HMOs and insurance companies have the interest of the public at heart.

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

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

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.

A president lying about an extramarital affair is an 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 driving record is none of our business.

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

What Bill Clinton did in the 1960s is of vital national interest, but what Bush Sr. did in the '80s is irrelevant.

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

Feel free to pass these on. If you don't send them to at least ten other people, we're likely to be stuck with Bush for 4 more years.
