Red State DUers- Make SURE your neighbors know how your reps voted

-stress that THIS is what they voted for...throwing granny on the street,starving the disbled.
If you live in a "Xtian" area like I do, ask them WWJD...starve and deny treatment?

here is a link to check and see how your Congressional Representative voted.
Ask them why they hate their constituents so much.

Needless to say, in the heart of Texas- this will be done :)

2. Most of my neighbors are _proud_ of it..

They think it's a great idea..

And the "Xtians" are the proudest.

WWJD only applies to sex and only then if you're not a Republican.

of the Republican Party. They claim they know the REAL TRUTH because they get it from "FOX "News"...They claim FOX "News" does not tell them what to think they just tell both sides & let them decide! LOL! I SWEAR!!

YES, religion plays a huge role in why they vote the way they do...They honestly think America is Jesus favorite country & we are a super power because of that alone!

The STUPID HURTS!

7. The hardest thing about talking to my neighbors is *keeping* them from talking politics..

There isn't a subject it's possible to discuss where they don't drag extreme right wing politics into it.

To quote Davis X Machina: �The salient fact of American politics is that there are fifty to seventy million voters each of whom will volunteer to live, with his family, in a cardboard box under an overpass, and cook sparrows on an old curtain rod, if someone would only guarantee that the black, gay, Hispanic, liberal, whatever, in the next box over doesn�t even have a curtain rod, or a sparrow to put on it.�

3. thanks w8liftinglady

i just wrote to Burr of NC: why do you want to destroy medicare? why is taxpayer funded health care okay for you but not for poor senior citizens? i will waste no time in spreading the word that Sen Burr wants to dismantle Medicare so that the rich can keep getting richer and the poor can just...die.
