The Force is With Me
Piss off shorty.
Do you know how many millions of times I've had Dixie, WRL, you, or superfreak tell me, desh, BAC, and others to stop being mean to republican politicians over the last few years? And it always comes with the warning that it will "backfire" and cause Bush's poll numbers to go up and it will benefit the republicans.
Guess what shorty? Ever since the liberal net roots and liberal activists learned to fight like republicans (dirty and mean) in the last few years, and ever since the Bush-bashing has become relentless and non-stop, Bush poll numbers have done nothing but crater. And the republican party has become nothing short of a joke. Lifelong republicans in cyberspace and elsewhere have had to resort to claiming that they're "independents", that they "never really liked bush", and they have been shamed into running away at full sprint away from bush and republicans.
You know what I think shorty? I think when republicans tell you to stop being mean, it's because they don't want the tactics they've successfully used for years turned against them. To them, Bill Clinton was a cocaine-running, Vince Foster-murdering criminal; Al Gore was a serial liar; John Kerry was a fake war hero who lied to get medals; Barack Obama is a radical black muslim or a racist black christian. Depending on what day of the week it is.
Yeah shorty. Republicans don't want their own tactics used against them. 90% of them were cheering the swift boat liars on. And the other 10% didn't raise a finger to object to it, or stop it. Out of earshot of liberals, that 10% was yucking it up with fellow republicans about fake purple hearts, or at a minimum secretly praying that the Kerry smears would give Bush another shot for a second term.
Stop being mean to republicans? Surely you jest, shorty.
