Hate Roe v. Wade? Disgusted by Social Security? Don't want Medicare? Cool

all you have to do is:

1. Hold your breath until you turn blue on election day
2. Don't support the Democratic nominee
3. Don't work to see that we get a Democrat -- any Democrat -- into the White House
4. Hang on to all your money and don't donate
5. Trash the nominee as much as you can
6. Take the "Well, let's just see how "electable" he/she is without me" attitude
7. Don't convince everyone you know that the fascists coup is almost complete.

If a Republican takes the White House in November, you can say goodbye to:

o Roe v. Wade
o Voting rights
o Social Security
o Medicare
o Medicaid
o Welfare
o Gay rights
o Unemployment insurance
o Environmental protections
o Worker safety
o Worker rights
o Minimum wage
o Unions
o Quality public education
o Community colleges
o What's left of the Constitution
o National parks
o Water (they are working hard to privatize all water supplies and delivery, so you will have to pay through the nose)
o Religious freedom -- more importantly, the right not to be religious
o Veterans benefits
o Privacy
o The right to seek redress through the courts
o and others too numerous to mention

7. It's the Supreme Court - all they need is one more vote and
freedom as we know it is gone. They will have their facist majority and it is correct that all those things will be at issue, plus more. Court decisions affect us all the time and things we've taken for granted a long time will be threatened. Take a hard look at the religious right wing and ask yourself if you want to live that way - because that will be the way everyone will be living.

8. Add employer-funded health insurance and jobs.
McBush wants everyone on their own when it comes to health insurance. He'll give you $5,000 to buy a $12,000 policy which you won't be able to get if you have a pre-existing condition. McBush also loves trade agreements and will ship more jobs offshore.
