If you a Republican voter, what's motivating you to vote today?

[Old and In the Way]

* A 4+ Trillion Bush debt?
* Corruption Central in the Republican Party?
* An elective and unjust war, founded on lies that has killed 100's of thousands?
* An administration that ignored the warnings leading up to 9/11 that killed 3000 Americans?
* A totally botched federal response to the Katrina hurricane?
* Putting plans to build nukes on the web?
* Outing CIA NOC's for political gain?
* The world thinks we are the #1 terrorist state in the world?

Or, is it the thought that NANCY PELOSI could be Speaker of the House? :scared: BOO!


:rofl:

1. Speaker Pelosi

aaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh / cue Stephanie Miller scream

[Iris]

2. blind greed

same thing that always motivates them. It obliterates even fact.

[Hav]

3. .

GAYS!!!!11 and babies!

[truebrit71]

4. The same thing(s) as always...Greed and fear.

That's all they have left...

[Dr Fate]

5. "The queers are gonna GETCHA!!!!" n/t

n/t

[Nite Owl]

9. It probably still is for a lot

but isn't it sort of ironic considering Haggart and Foley.
For some I doubt that they will ever get the hypocrisy of the GOP.

[warrens]

6. The usual: Hate, racism, greed, homophobia, war-lust, envy, and

latent desire for the guy next door. We're pretty predictable, us repukes.

[codjh9]

7. May I add, an outright attack on the environment during the whole admin.?

But of course, Bush is 'protecting the public', which means allowing far more coal emissions, other air/water pollution, 'further study' on global warming, in the pockets of Big Oil/Big Mining/Big Timber/Big Anything. Of course, some recent religious and political 'leaders' on the Right have been in other... men's... pockets lately. Haggard? Foley? Others? (Not that there's anything wrong with gays, but these are people who 'hate' gays, because they're ... gay themselves? :^)

[marlakay]

8. Only people I know watch Fox News

Doesn't that just say it all???

[spooky3]

10. The USPS delivered my neighbor's Repub. GOTV flyer to me

Before I delivered it to the right mailbox, I read it. The Repubs. seem to think that bogeymen and women motivate their voters. It said, essentially, if you don't vote for our traditional values, John Kerry will vote against them. Nancy Pelosi will vote against them, etc., etc.

[fuzzyball]

11. It's the same issue which has been good for the repugs since 1994....

TAXES TAXES TAXES TAXES TAXES TAXES TAXES TAXES TAXES TAXES TAXES TAXES

If we make this our top priority item in our platform in 2008,
the GOP is toast for good.

[Morgana LaFey]

12. I'm not Republican, but I'll bet for a lot of them, everyday folks,

it's the fact that they don't want to admit they were that bone-crushingly WRONG. Whadya think?

[Old and In the Way]

14. I think you are correct. As the base shrinks, those left are more closely

ID'ing themselves as Republicans. It's like a sports ID to them. In baseball, I'm a diehard Red Sox fan. I hate the Yankees. If the Sox lost every game, I'd still be a Red Sox fan. Politics should be different. If the Democrats were doing the stuff Republicans are doing...I'd be pulling the levers for Republicans. I think this ID is critical for Republicans and they play to this with their base. Look how they demonize their opposition.

[Morgana LaFey]

22. Good points nt

[sweetpotato]

13. Gay marriage

Its the only issue on the ballot here in South Carolina that's really drawing the crowds.

We are voting either for or against an amendment to our state constitution declaring marriage = 1 man + 1 woman.

[RUMMYisFROSTED]

15. Ignorance.

[slackmaster]

16. Those demmy-crats are going to take our guns

Someone had to say it.

:hide:

[LittleClarkie]

17. Why ask us?

Unless the point was to ask Dem voting Repubs why they switched their votes.

[Old and In the Way]

18. Just a little rhetorical question.

Hey, maybe I could post this over at FreeRepublic? I'd bet I'd get a lot of thoughtful answers. :rofl:

[LittleClarkie]

21. I'd be interested to hear what Dem-voting Repubs have to say

so I was hoping that's what you were asking. No such luck.

[trof]

19. Oh Pelosi, natch.

And they SHOULD be shakin' in their boots.
That lady is gonna kick some ass and take some names.
(I hope I hope I hope)

[SoyCat]

20. FIL is 85 and hasn't paid attention to politics in ages...

he just votes for the people with R beside their names. It's sad isn't it?

[ddbaj]

23. AHHHHHHH!!! HOMOSEXUALS! TERRARISTS!!

TEH DEMOCRATZ R GOEN 2 RAISE MAH TAXES!!!!!111

[fujiyama]

24. They want theocracy

and bloodlust. They are violent and irrational.

Pelosi will destroy 'Merican values.
