Why do republicans hate working people?
posted at 3/12/2011 9:32 AM EST

I'd like to ask the wingnuts on this board why the GOP is out to ruin teachers, bus drivers, janitors, police officers, fire fighters, trades workers and other union employees? The republican party goes in to a rightwing tizzy at the mere mention of increasing taxes for the wealthy. And, the GOP protects tax cuts for big oil and other large corporations the way Rush Limbaugh protects his stash of prescription pain killers. Why? Does the GOP feel that average working people are to blame for all of our fiscal issues? Does the republican party want to do away with the middle class? Just curious. Oh, and by the way, enjoy the majority while you have it, because I don't think it'll last too long:)........You've shown the world what complete whacko's you truly are.

---
There are a surprising number of rightwingers in those Boston.com (Boston Globe) forums. I enjoy making them mad.

1. To answer your questions from the GOP/TP prospective of course it was the
middle classes to blame for our fiscal failures, why it was them who forced banks to give them loans they couldn't afford to live in big houses. It was middle class workers who brought in unions to force poor businessmen to pay them wages they didn't work hard enough to deserve as well as retirement packages that were way more then they deserved and forced business to provide health care, age limits, safe working conditions and forced businesses to clean up the toxins that workers had to work around, everyone knows union workers didn't deserve any of these things because the union worker is lazy.

Then on top of that it was the middle class who forced government to enact safety net programs to protect the elderly, poor and disabled, not because it was good for the country but to make sure the middle class didn't have to provide for family members who found themselves in those conditions, after all really it should be religions responsibility to take care of these dead beats and today these safety programs are eating up all the tax dollars the hard working non union real Americans put into taxes.

Never mind facts in any of this GOP/TP know it is true because they seen welfare queens driving Caddies, BMW's etc to the store then use food stamps to buy lobster, steak and expensive wine with food stamps. Now if the middle class had been grateful for wages business was willing to give them while providing none of those perks, why America would be able to run government without taxes, so yes it was the middle class to blame for everything bad in the U.S., while those poor filthy rich had to pick up the tab which meant they couldn't create jobs.

9. I'd really like to find one of those banks
We want to buy a house. It sure would be nice to find one that would loan us that kind of money just because we insisted they do.

3. A response from a wingnut!
In Response to Why do republicans hate working people? : How drunk are you? How is it you think Reps are out to "ruin teachers, bus drivers, janitors, police officers, fire fighters, trades workers and other union employees?" What evidence do you have to this? How is what happened in Wisconsin going to "ruin teachers, bus drivers, janitors, police officers, fire fighters, trades workers and other union employees?" As far as I know all of the teachers, bus drivers, janitors, police officers, firefighters, trade workers and other union employees all still have jobs. In fact the measure that was passed prevented 1,500 jobs from being lost. So please, tell us all how Reps are trying to "ruin teachers, bus drivers, janitors, police officers, fire fighters, trades workers and other union employees"

11. I knew this would become a talking point
"In fact the measure that was passed prevented 1,500 jobs from being lost."

All they do is repeat, without any examination of the facts, what one of their crazed heroes say, in this instance Scott Walker. Also, if you really want to mess with the heads of some rightwinger/teabaggers up this way, post to some of the articles on the Boston Herald website. However, you might want to say a prayer, down a shot of Jack Daniels, and hug your loved ones before posting 'cause there's some scary shit being communicated on that site.

10. Hey they're on Facebook too.
Their profiles, if you're not friends with them, are minimal, but sufficiently open to show their love of ayn rand.

14. The Boston.com ones are easily angered
It doesn't take much to get them ranting and raving:)........ I have fun toying with them. It's become a hobby for me. I consider it a good day if I can make at least one wingnut have a tantrum:)......

It does worry me that we have people like that in this country.......
