The Randy Report: The Republican Party's biggest problem in one photo

--------------------------------------------------------
Conservatives never learn do they? They much prefer the status quo. As long as they don't Fully Embrace Diversity they will never win the White House Again.

How does one go about fully embracing diversity?

 

[Uncensored2008]

Anyway... we've wandered far afield so let's get back on track... Oops mixed my metaphors.

The OP is trying, I assume, to say that a lack of minority support is the GOP's biggest problem, and is using a picture of Republican teenagers as evidence.

It is probably true that a lack of minority support is a problem for the Republican party. If it is true, what do you propose the Republican party do to change it?

Dude. The picture Torch used was a group of German Athletes, not Americans at all. We would have minorities in our party (more, that is) if Democrats would stop taking their minds hostage. Each time one does make a run for it, the Democrats assail them and accuse them of betraying their own kind. Geesh, that's far more racist than anything I can think of that Republicans have said.

ROFL

These racist scum have to dig deep for their demagoguery.

How does one go about fully embracing diversity?

It starts by acknowledging that you are not the only one that is around. And then by setting out to fully correct the wrong done by treating every American as an Equal.

Does your quest for equality involve posting pictures of German athletes?

By letting free men diversify themselves, not by forcing them to diversify.

 

[Old Rocks]

That would be the party of White alright, the party the darkies won't vote for, which is why they don't want them voting...

Actually most of us on the Right that I know personally, are giving up on the ballot box entirely, and turning much more towards the ammunition box as the proper means to make the necessary changes in this country.

Good luck with that, asshole.

Elaborate on what you mean by treating every American as an equal.

What are some specific things that the GOP could do to treat everyone as an equal?

EDIT: I skipped over the acknowledging part. For the sake of argument, let's say Republicans are all aware that they are not the only ones around.

You are saying that an important aspect of equality is equal freedoms. Do I understand you correctly?

Oh look everyone, it's batshit - bringing his special brand of racist crazy to the thread.

How much Sterno have you huffed today, batshit? How many quarts of MadDog have you downed since lunch?

Still sleeping in that dumpster, batshit?

A position that believes in a fact as opposed to a position the disbelieves a fact?

So it went from a test to being a simple open ended question. A question that had nothing to do with what you thought he was saying. Where did this simple open ended question come from then? Oblivion?

false! it was a test and an open ended question.. do you need to be spoon fed?

I have already pointed out the logical problems with using that question as a "test" of the previous statement, and the question was not open-ended.

Try again.

false. in reality the only logical problems with that question are yours.

bullshit...This was posted by Rep. Aaron Schock (R-Ill.) after speaking to the National Teen Age Republicans, or "#futuregop."

If that's the "future of the GOP," Republicans could seriously be in big trouble as the diversity of the US continues to grow.

here you go:

Things Only a Republican Could Believe:

•Parents who don't want their children to pray in school are Anti-American zealots -- parents who don't want their children to listen to a speech by the President of the United States telling them to work hard and get good grades are noble patriots.


•Peacefully demonstrating against the country starting an international war is treason -- showing up with automatic weapons to protest healthcare reform is democracy at its finest.


•Any government official with a desk job should have every action scrutinized -- any government official with a badge and a gun should never be questioned or disrespected. At all. Ever.


•Questioning the legitimacy of an election because the "winner" was selected by the Supreme Court is sour grapes -- questioning the legitimacy of an election because the winner (by the largest number of votes in American history) is really a Kenyan born Muslim despite all evidence to the contrary is being a vigilant American.


•Lying about a blowjob is an impeachable offense -- lying about a war is no big deal, really.


•Investigating a shady land deal involving the First Lady is a matter of National Identity -- investigating the use of torture at the direction of the Executive Branch is a partisan witch hunt.


•Executing Japanese officers for waterboarding prisoners during WWII shows that we have the moral high-ground on human rights -- waterboarding prisoners of our shows that we have the moral high-ground on human rights.


•Sitting two rows in front of Jane Fonda in a 1970 anti-war rally is an OUTRAGE! Shaking Saddam's hand in 1983...meh, not so much.


•Anyone who questions the president during a time of war is giving aide and comfort to the enemy and should be deported...unless the president in question has a (D) next to their name in which case you should undermine them at every turn even if you have to routinely make shit up to do it.


•Socialism, Marxism, Communism and Fascism are all interchangeable words that mean pretty much the same thing.


•Anyone who abuses drugs should be locked up indefinitely...unless they are a popular Republican radio host in which case they need your prayers as they recover from the illness of addiction.


•Health Insurance companies have your best interests in mind and anyone who thinks otherwise is trying to turn America into the Godless heathen nation of Sweden where EVERYONE in the country dies (eventually).


•Obama is an atheist communist muslim who attended a radical christian church.


•Believing that human activity could impact the global environment is crazy talk -- believing that an invisible man in the sky personally told George Bush to invade Iraq to fulfill Biblical prophecy is logically sound.


•The verdict is still out on evolution -- but Jesus Christ returning in our lifetimes is a pretty much a given.


•The media are unquestionably biased against Republicans -- Talk Radio, The Washington Times, The Weekly Standard, The Wall Street Journal, Rightwing Blogs, Fox News and NewsCorp are not part of the media.


•The government should have no part in regulating multi-national corporations as they make decisions that impact the lives of millions of people -- government should regulate individuals by determining who they can marry, what kind of intercourse they can have, what they can smoke, how to manage their pregnancy and how to proceed with end of life decisions.


•Communicating with hostile nations is a stab in the back to our great nation -- Reagan communicating with the USSR during the Cold War was Political Genius.


•Iran is a mortal threat to our nation and anyone who attempts to talk to them is traitorous scum -- selling weapons to Iran and then funneling the money to start wars in South America is clearly in our National interest.


•George Bush kept the nation safe after 9-11 (NOTE: the Anthrax attacks, the DC Sniper and Hurricane Katrina don't count. Also, the fact that 9-11 happened on his watch despite receiving a security briefing specifically warning of the attack doesn't count either.)


•Social Security, Meidcare, public schooling, public libraries, fire departments, police departments and the US Military are as American as Apple Pie -- universal healthcare is ZOMGDEATHPANELSOCIALISM!!


•George W Bush is a regular 'ole Texas rancher just like you and me despite the fact that he was born in Connecticut, attended two Ivy League schools, bought the Crawford ranch just before running for president, sold it immediate after leaving office and is terrified of horses.


•The two guys at the center of the Watergate and Iran-Contra scandals are trustworthy voices in discussions of current national policy and should be taken at face-value.

The Republican Party's troubles only begin there. It really is much worse, and honestly, I do not see a solution to their problems. While the country has been in a conservative mood for the past thirty years, that is now changing. The country is becoming more liberal. That does not mean it's becoming ultra liberal, but it does mean that it is completely moving away from the hard core far right. With the country moving slightly to the left at the same time that the Republican Party is moving further and further to the right, well you can see the problem with that.
