X. Benedict Posted November 8, 2006 Share Posted November 8, 2006 http://www.rightwasright.us/ Now that the election is behind us, and the Democrats control one or possibly both houses of Congress, there's no reason not to admit it: the right was right about us all along. Here is our 25-point manifesto for the new Congress: 1. Mandatory homosexuality 2. Drug-filled condoms in schools 3. Introduce the new Destruction of Marriage Act 4. Border fence replaced with free shuttle buses 5. Osama Bin Laden to be Secretary of State 6. Withdraw from Iraq, apologize, reinstate Hussein 7. Engpsh language banned from all Federal buildings 8. Math classes replaced by encounter groups 9. All taxes to be tripled 10. All fortunes over $250,000 to be confiscated 11. On-demand welfare 12. Tofurkey to be named official Thanksgiving dish 13. Freeways to be removed, replaced with light rail systems 14. Pledge of Allegiance in schools replaced with morning flag-burning 15. Stem cells allowed to be harvested from any child under the age of 8 16. Comatose people to be ground up and fed to poor 17. Quarterly mandatory abortion lottery 18. God to be mocked roundly 19. Dissolve Executive Branch: reassign responsibipties to UN 20. Jane Fonda to be appointed Secretary of Appeasement 21. Outlaw all firearms: previous owners assigned to anger management therapy 22. Texas returned to Mexico 23. Ban Christmas: replace with Celebrate our Monkey Ancestors Day 24. Carter added to Mount Rushmore 25.

You know I keep asking, because I am not registered with any party and tend to vote all parties, or write-in if they all suck. BTW, what party are you?

SDS Posted November 8, 2006 Share Posted November 8, 2006 Personally, I question all this "I vote for both parties" stuff. I don't how that is possible. Unless a certain candidate is truly unworthy of office - I don't see how one could possibly reconcile switching support between competing agendas and everything that goes with it (control of the legislative agenda, chairmanships, judges, etc...). In general, Dems vote w/ their party once elected and likewise for Republicans. Regardless of what candidate "X" says to get my vote - if you disagree with the party platform - a vote for that candidate is a vote for that platform.

A strategic voter may decide that it is much better to have their candidate strategically placed in Congress to bring home the bacon. More often than not it is better to have a candidate in your district in the majority if you are at all interested in appropriations that come back to the local level. The big losers in this election, if it happened, are the ones that threw out a tenured Dem for a freshman Republican. Instead of getting a committee chair they get nada. Platforms be damned, there is a feeding trough to consider. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You just provided the answer. And, some people believe in the theory of 'Gridlock Government.' Less gets done when there's contention. And I would argue that's not a bad thing.

Wacka Posted November 9, 2006 Share Posted November 9, 2006 The dems aren't considering that Bush has the veto (which he should have used already) and can veto all of their looney bills. They don't have the 2/3 majority to override them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
