Today's Challenge -- Can You Do It?

[SYTFE]

Hilarious how the resident 'tards have to go all the way back to when the GOP was a progressive party to name anything.

we freed the slaves

unfortunately, modern democrats are hellbent to put them back on & keep them on the plantation

great thread - thanks!

Ehhhh Wrong!!! Nice try though, made me laugh.

I'm sorry public school has failed you. Hopefully DeVos will fix it for you and future generations

 

[TemplarKormac]

we freed the slaves

That's pretty much it.

Nothing more to see here.

SYTFE what were you thinking?

SYTFE and "thinking" in the same sentence?
Nah!

I thought I'd ask anyway... just in case.

 

[Timmy]

Gee . You only had to go back 150 years to find good republican policy !

 

[CrusaderFrank]

Name ONE positive thing to come from Republican policy.

We beat the USSR so badly we only left them one play: exercise their option to take over the Democrat Party

 

[SYTFE]

Gee . You only had to go back 150 years to find good republican policy !

They're only proving my point that ALL positive policy came from progressive policy over the years. There's a reason why they have to go so far back in time to name anything.

 

[TemplarKormac]

Gee . You only had to go back 150 years to find good republican policy !

And you need only go back 60 seconds to find another poorly thought out liberal comment.

 

[Pop23]

Republican party back then was the same as the Democrat party today. Everyone knows this.

I love the smell of desperation in the evening.

It's so...... well....... humiliating.

Nothing desperate about it, it's a fact that they were progressive at that time.

Suuuurrreeeeeee

 

[TemplarKormac]

They're only proving my point

Not really.

The aim of your thread was to trap us in a logical conundrum. You hoped we couldn't come up with any good Republican policy.

But when we did, you started dismissing us/them. Your biases against Republicans forbids you from seeing anything positive about Republicans.

Which begs the question:

Are you being honest when you post threads like this?

Except that Obama was GW, Terms 3 & 4.

And you still haven't.

Is there? I'm open to hearing something. Anything.

 

[Borillar]

You have to go back quite a ways to find any good from the GOP, but they did give us an end to slavery, the National Park system (that they would probably like to privatize or do away with now), and the Interstate highway system.

 

[guno]

End to slavery, desegregation, civil rights, economic prosperity, self reliance, charity. Etc.

 

[TemplarKormac]

And you still haven't.

I did, you dullard. We all have, and you refuse to see it. We obliterated your thread.

See, you started out great, naming something positive the GOP did do. (of course they were the progressive party back then) But nevertheless you answered the question.

But you just couldn't help yourself -- you had to go stick your head right up your ass and go full retard with a dumb ass comment about the modern dems.

Well, played.

you had to go stick your head right up your ass and go full retard with a dumb ass comment

Name ONE positive thing to come from Republican policy.

What? Surely you aren't that partisan?

The GOP have done plenty of positive things, though none are recent.

1. Setting up the Interstate Highway System, one of the greatest achievements post WWII -- Eisenhower.
2. Making NASA a civilian space agency, passing the Science Education Law -- Eisenhower.
3. Sending in troops to Little Rock, Arkansas to enforce racial desegregation in schools -- Eisenhower.
4. Opening up relations with China, one of the biggest accomplishments -- Nixon.
5. Large scale desegregation of public schools down South -- Nixon.
6. Man on the Moon in 1969 -- Nixon (though the ground work was done during Johnson's time).
7. Cooperation between NASA and Soviet space program -- Nixon.
8. End of the Cold War, fall of the Communist regimes in Eastern Europe- Ronald Reagan.
9. No Child Left Behind Act -- this was a landmark act for disadvantaged students -- George W. Bush
10. Promotion of alternative fuels to reduce US dependence on Oil -- George W. Bush
11. Produced William F. Buckley, Jr.

The Republican party wasn't always the sh*tstorm it is today. There was a time when it was a party was suffused with, and more importantly led by humane, intelligent and thoughtful individuals of integrity, or at least more of it than is apparent these days, even considering Watergate, which was an abuse of executive power for political gain, not for personal gain, self-aggrandizement and browbeating opponents.

Hmmm does it look something like this?

Your challenge has been met and conquered.

 

[TemplarKormac]

Welp, that's lights out! See ya!

Name ONE positive thing to come from Republican policy.

It turned you into whining jackass...or at least accelerated you down that path you have been on since conception.
