A Mishmash of Politics Stuff

Sometimes, I really wish David Horsey was better known. He sums up my feelings perfectly on so many issues…

For those who are in favor of gun control (and exercising the 2nd Amendment responsibly), join the NRA Blacklist.

Anyone want to do me a favor and tell me what sectors contributed to the precipitous GDP growth, considering that the job market is still really tight and most of those new jobs created are with the Asian counterparts of American companies?

Then there’s this little song

We’re all Republicans now,
We’ve all come around somehow
We’re all wearing flight suits
With big parachutes.
We’re all Republicans now.
We’ll defend this land everywhere
From the comfort of our armchair.
We’re proud to be patriots, glad to be hawks.
We salivate whenever Rush talks.
We’re smarter and nicer and better than you.
We’re chosen to lead, and God says so too.
He’s a Republican
He’s a Republican
He’s a Republican now.

We’re all Republicans now,
We’ve all come around somehow
Even old Democrats
Can change their hats.
We’re all Republicans now.
Affirmative action must go
Unless it’s somebody we know.
We’ll put conservative judges back on the bench,
More executions, let’s start with the French,
No more free lunch, everybody must pay,
If you want health care, Canada is that way
We’re all Republicans
All Republicans
All Republicans now.
