So since the Republican party is the super rich manipulating rednecks, and you were a Republican, which are you? Super rich or a redneck?
Someone bright enough to figure out the bullshit, eventually.
So here's the thing. From 1981 to 1992, I was in the military. So under those circumstances, voting republican actually made a lot of sense. So that explains my votes in 1980, 1984 and 1988.
1992, I was over the military, and frankly, gave Clinton a serious look. But there was something truly skeezy about the guy. I considered Perot. But he was nuts.
1996, I voted for Dole, but didn't think he was going to win. The worst day of Dole's campaign was his retirement attention stunt, where he made this long speech about how he made governemnt bigger. Did he not know which party he was running for.
2000, I voted For Bush because I really, really did buy into the crap that Clinton's so-called Scandals were actually a big deal. and I voted for him in 2004 because frankly, Kerry seemed kind of gutless.
2008 was when I had my moment of doubt. This was after I got screwed over by my last employer and realized the GOP was the party of the enemy. But I still voted for McCain because, hey, the guy had a clue. He knew Bush fucked things up, and he was basically an honorable guy.
Then in 2012, you guys really did it. you nominated the ******* MORMON. And there was no way I was going to ever vote for A ******* MORMON.
Now, 2016, I could vote for either Rubio or Walker, if they demonstrate they kind of get it that the middle class is hurting and we need change. But you dipshits will probably nominate Jeb Bush and wonder why no one wants to take a third ride on that stupidity.
