The GOP Needs a Bath

Posted on May 27, 2008

Dear Senator McCain,

We have nothing against you personally, but you have been soiled by the company you keep: the warmongers and social conservatives who use fear to promote a backward agenda. The Republican Party has become entertainment that no one wants to watch, a song that voters can’t get out of their heads, an unreal reality program with all the nuance and depth of a 60s TV sitcom. But people aren’t laughing. They’re getting ready to change the channel. This will happen on November 4.

Yours Truly, The Majority of American Citizens

From inquiring minds at Buzzflash: “So once again, we ask: Which McCain are we getting?

McCain #1: I support right-wing pastors. I strongly believe in what they have to say. I could listen to them all day long. Oh, what I said in 2000 - political opportunism. Show I can rebel against the party.

McCain #2: I don’t agree with Falwell, Robertson, Hagee, Parsley, and the others. They make me sick. I’m sucking up to them for political opportunism, and because I really need to suck up to the base. Why don’t they think I’m not conservative enough?”

Below is an example of GOP scare tactics (as noted on Pam’s House Blend). Be prepared to barf.
