A rational debate?

When is the last time Republicans engaged in one of those? Was I even born then?

Rational debate is the kiss of death to their so-called "arguments" and the last thing someone who compares the President to Hitler and claims he plans to kill your grandma wants to get involved with.

Rather than 'rational debate,' I'm calling for people to recognize the health care reform issue for what it is: survival of the fittest.

If a species were too stupid to eat food, they'd die out. If a species were too stupid to breed, they'd die out. And if a species were too stupid to understand that they're being played for suckers and fools by the fascists on their television screens - brainwashed to deny themselves medical coverage for example - then in the end, they'll get exactly what they deserve.

God Bless America.

we can't let the smoking gun be a mushroom cloud!

they brought the fight to our shores, so we must take it to theirs!

we must fight them over there so we won't have to fight them over here!

if you don't support the war, you don't support the troops!

the world is a better place without Saddam!

enhanced interrogation techniques keep us safe from the terrorists!

warantless wiretapping keeps us safe from the terrorists!

habeus corpus, like the geneva conventions, are qaint notions when we are at war!

in a time of war, civil rights must take a back seat to our safety!

a war president is not bound by laws or the constitution!

death panels are going to pull the plug on your grandma!

I just turned 60 and I know I "wasn't born then". Republicans fought social security with exactly the same kind of hysteria.

Rethugs are incapable of doing anything rational! All they know is hate-mongering and fear tactics. It's their life-blood. To be rational is against their "moral values"
