I have seen this on 10 or so walls, so instead of eviscerating each of you in front of all of your friends, I’ll do it on my own time. My responses to each of the original 12 points:
1. You voted Republican because you feel the need to compare every LGBT person to a dog. You think that anyone who loves someone in a different way than you is engaging in bestiality. You don’t care about making this claim publically on facebook, because even though all of you probably have at least one gay friend, you don’t mind shattering their world on an issue that has absolutely no effect on your own personal life.
2. You voted Republican because you don’t want to research facts before you blindly accept them. According to the Natural Resources Defense Council (also out of Oil Companies Tax Returns) Oil actually makes closer to 34% profit off of every gallon. Good thing you didn’t let something like facts get in your way.
3. You voted Republican because of GREED. Don’t try and lace it as who thinks whom is a better fiscal manager. You want to keep more of your money, and don’t want to help others who need it. Possibly because you only want to follow certain aspects of whichever major world religion you belong too, and ignore any altruistic message each one may have.
4. You voted Republican because you truly don’t believe in freedom of speech. Any argument you may have to the contrary is ridiculous. You suppress rights and thoughts of anyone who isn’t a straight white male. You are the party of homogeneousness; you represent small minded speech from a small portion of the populous.
5. You voted Republican because you chose to completely ignore the portion of the debate where President Obama said he wouldn’t touch gun laws, or infringe upon 2nd amendment rights. In fact the Brady Report (a grade given to leaders on their efforts to eliminate guns) gave Obama an F. If Gun rights were what you voted on, then you completely missed the target. Just to be clear, I am one of 6 total democrats nationwide that support gun ownership, and one of the others is President Obama, so you can take this and shove it up your ass.
6. You voted Republican because in the midst of the largest and most destructive east coast hurricane in the history of our nation, during the worst drought of the last 50 years, under the highest sea levels recorded, during the most expansive levels of acid rain, you still believe that our climate isn’t changing. You also don’t seem to know the difference between the opinions of your local station’s meteorologist, and the majority of climate scientists worldwide.
7. You voted Republican because you consider the victims of rape to be under the same circumstances as people who have committed murder. I’ll let you explain to me how you can allow the definition of life to be from Conception to Conviction. (trade marking that if it isn’t taken) You voted republican because you fail to grasp the concept that Pro-Choice isn’t Pro-Abortion. No one is going to make you get an abortion if it goes against your religious views, but you seem to believe that your religious views should dictate the ability of others to have a choice.
8. You voted Republican because you don’t understand how the social security program works, nor have you ever read the inscription on the statue of liberty. You seem to be under the impression that the ancestors of anyone who isn’t Mexican immigrated here legally. You think that the dwindling of social security is a result of democratic swindling, and not of the population boom of the 60’s, 70’s, and 80’s. Last time I checked, yours was the party of Pension Busting, and 401k ruining. I’m glad you choose to focus in of Social Security though, and found a way to blame it on immigrants who do the job’s you’re content to not have to deal with.
9. You voted Republican not because you believe business should make profits, but because you are content with businesses making profits off of working peoples hardships. You don’t have a problem with the CEO of Hostess getting a 300% raise while the workers take paycuts, and the company faces bankruptcy. See your reason #3 for voting Republican.
10. Citizens for America. Nuff said.
11. You voted Republican because you don’t give a flying fuck about people who lost their lives or welfare in the Deepwater Horizon explosion and the resulting damage to the fishing industry on the gulf. You voted republican because people whose livelihoods are destroyed by your reckless abandon, are somehow replaced by people who gain livelihoods off of the oil industry. You voted republican because you’re too stubborn to begin relying on a power source that is sustainable. But mainly see reason #3.
12. You voted Republican and then reposted (or wrote) this article because even though the majority of the country thinks differently than you, you are unwilling to do something someone else’s way, and are committed to wasting the next four years opposing change, for better or worse just because your cannot accept that so many people across our nation don’t feel the same as you. Get over it and let the rest of us get to solving real issues.
