    A Day In The Life Of Joe Republican

    "A DAY IN THE LIFE OF JOE REPUBLICAN"

    Joe gets up at 6 a.m. and fills his coffeepot with water to prepare his morning coffee. The water is clean and good because some tree-hugging liberal fought for minimum water-quality standards. With his first swallow of water, he takes his daily medication. His medications are safe to take because some stupid commie liberal fought to ensure their safety and that they work as advertised.

    All but $10 of his medications are paid for by his employer's medical Plan because some liberal union workers fought their employers for paid Medical insurance - now Joe gets it too.

    He prepares his morning breakfast, bacon and eggs. Joe's bacon is safe to eat because some girly-man liberal fought for laws to regulate the meat packing industry.

    In the morning shower, Joe reaches for his shampoo. His bottle is properly labeled with each ingredient and its amount in the total contents because some crybaby liberal fought for his right to know what he was putting on his body and how much it contained.
    Joe dresses, walks outside and takes a deep breath. The air he breathes is clean because some environmentalist wacko liberal fought for the laws to stop industries from polluting our air.

    He walks on the government-provided sidewalk to subway station for his government-subsidized ride to work. It saves him considerable money in parking and transportation fees because some fancy-pants liberal fought for affordable public transportation, which gives everyone the opportunity to be a contributor.

    Joe begins his work day. He has a good job with excellent pay, medical benefits, retirement, paid holidays and vacation because some lazy liberal union members fought and died for these working standards. Joe's employer pays these standards because Joe's employer doesn't want his employees to call the union.

    If Joe is hurt on the job or becomes unemployed, he'll get a worker compensation or unemployment check because some stupid liberal didn't think he should lose his home because of his temporary misfortune.

    It is noontime and Joe needs to make a bank deposit so he can pay some bills. Joe's deposit is federally insured by the FSLIC because some godless liberal wanted to protect Joe's money from unscrupulous bankers who ruined the banking system before the Great Depression.
    Joe has to pay his Fannie Mae-underwritten mortgage and his below-market federal student loan because some elitist liberal decided that Joe and the government would be better off if he was educated and earned more money overhis lifetime.

    Joe also forgets that his in addition to his federally subsidized student loans, he attended a state funded university. Joe is home from work. He plans to visit his father this evening at his farm home in the country. He gets in his car for the drive. His car is among the safest in the world because some America-hating liberal fought for car safetystandards to go along with the tax-payer funded roads.

    He arrives at his boyhood home. His was the third generation to live in the house financed by Farmers' Home administration because bankers didn't want to make rural loans.

    The house didn't have electricity until some big-government liberal stuck his nose where it didn't belong and demanded rural electrification.

    He is happy to see his father, who is now retired. His father lives on Social Security and a union pension because some wine-drinking, cheese-eating liberal made sure he could take care of himself so Joe wouldn't have to.

    Joe gets back in his car for the ride home, and turns on a radio talk show. The radio host keeps saying that liberals are bad and conservatives are good. He doesn't mention that the beloved Republicans have fought against every protection and benefit Joe enjoys throughout his day. Joe agrees: "We don't need those big-government liberals ruining our lives! After all, I'm a self-made man who believes everyone should take care of themselves, just like I have."

    Those dastardly Republicans. Thank you for reminding us that Capitolism would've wiped out both the USA and humanity as we know it were it not for the loving, concerned, give-till-it-hurts liberals. Remember, Neichke (sp) said "Pure Capitolism is pure Evil"...

      The Civil Rights Act would have never been passed if it wasn't for Republicans.

      House of Representatives: Republicans favored the bill 138 to 34; Democrats supported it 152-96.


      Blacks would probably still be slaves if the Democrats had been in charge nonstop since 1789.

          I don't think the Republicans are much different.

          I do think the Democrats have become liberals and have gone far left. It makes the Republicans look like rabid conservatives from their perspective.

            I don't agree, the rabid ideological divide has moved right. When did Democrats begin to move left? During the New Deal? The one the current Administration is so bent of destroying.

              I wouldn't mind seeing the loony left wing destroyed.

              Yeah, I'd say the New Deal started the trend. That's why Democrats are so hell-bent on not changing social security, even if it does crash in forty years. It's an artifact from their glory days. It's their legacy.

              I don't see how the divide moved right. The ideals of the standard Republican are pro-life, anti-abortion, smaller government, pro big-business. If that's far right, then I guess that's what I am.

                You have that in reverse, the party has been hijacked by well-meaning, but wrong-headed religious zealots (in the late 1970's).

                Many Republicans consider abortion to be a matter of personal choice of the woman and would shudder at the corporate whorishness of both parties, but mainly of their own.

                Many Republicans would have once been booed if they dared to question the ultimate good the New Deal has done.

                After all, Liberal capitalism is what defeated Communism. I truly believe that the United States would have adopted state Socialism or even a Communist rebellion would have beset Amerika as the Depression worsened!

                  The New Deal is the best thing Democrats have ever done in this country, bar none. It's just not working now, because 40 million workers have been aborted (abortion being one of the liberals' political cornerstones) in the last 32 years, making the social security system obsolete. Instead of 16 workers paying for every retiree, it's gone downhill fast.

                    If you thought about living people half as much as you did about fetuses and reanimated corpses, you might actually be able to talk some sense into your own party. Pro Life my ass.

                      And then Joe Republican takes a look at his paycheck, and sees how much money is being taken away in taxes, and he begins to cry.
                      I've got the cure you're thinkin' of.

                        What's not pro-life about the party, FORD?

                        Schiavo wasn't a corpse by medical definition, seeing as how you liberals say a fetus isn't a human being by definition.

                          Multiply that x 100,000 for starters.

                          Then add to it the REALITY that it didn't do one goddamn fucking thing to make THIS country more secure, nor any other country on the planet. Including, and most especially Iraq itself.

                            How do you know she wasn't killed by terrorists over there?

                            We'll just agree to disagree on the war.

                            You'd rather go to Kofi Annon and the United Nations while Saddam bribes them off with Oil for Food funds, all the while allowing terrorists to go unfettered through his country. I prefer a more direct, proactive approach to this issue.

                              Terrorists are all over the country NOW, aren't they? And they have nothing to do with Al Qaeda either, but rather they're Iraqis who either 1) really hate occupation 2) really hate other Iraqis or more likely 3) both.

                              There is no victory for the BCE in Iraq. All it would have taken was a good look at Yugoslavia to see what was coming there. Saddam was to Iraq what the Iron Curtain was to Yugoslavia. Say what you want about his methods, but he kept the (artificially created) country stable. Which is why the BCE/CIA installed him in the first place, and backed him for so many years.

                              Eventually the Kurds will want their own state, the Shias will want to join with Iran, and the Sunnis won't appreciate being boxed in, and it will disintegrate into a bloody civil war. How the fuck does that make anybody "safer"?
