We're wrong. Republicans ARE pro-choice.
It finally hit me…..

the Republican constituency's ideology is, surprisingly and actually, securely rooted in a Pro-Choice stance.

It’s abundantly clear,and made more so every day, that they believe Americans should:

* choose to be wealthy over being poor
* choose to be heterosexual over being homosexual
* choose to be healthy over being ill
* choose to be Caucasian over being non-Caucasian
* choose to be natural-born citizens over being naturalized citizens
* choose to be employed over being unemployed
* choose to be Christian over being a member of other religions
* choose to be not raped/robbed/killed over being raped/robbed/killed


And that’s just for starters……

I don’t even think I’m being sarcastic…not sure.

1. As long as the choice belongs to them, they certainly are.

2. Your not far off.
There is a delusion that effects groups that are well off, they think they are there because they did something better then someone else, and think everyone should do that if they want to be there.

They are personal responsibility, but only to self gain.

So if you rob a bank, and get away with it, or a pension fund, or schools, or hospitals. Then you did something to have the money you have, and everyone should be able to do that if they want to have money.



For instance, the people that have not decided to correct the beer and travel money that is due to me, they think if I should have it, I should be able to get it. However the only way to convince them would be to crush them, then they could not correct that. And if someone else gets crushed, they say what the turtle guy said, that we should not judge what we do in America by what happens in Japan.

The way they think is fascinating. First they say because they have they should have, then anyone that loses must have suppose to have lost, and it still isn't them losing.

So the only way to correct that thought is to remove there power, but when doing that, then they can't pay the beer and travel money, the only real meaning of 'to late' when someone has to be crushed to know they should correct things, and being crushed they no longer can correct anything.


But anyways, someone is going to send me the beer and travel money that is due, because they can not all be that stupid.
