The hypocrisy of the Republican party continues to astound me. "Country First" is their slogan of choice at the RNC. I totally agree with the sentiment, which is what makes me so upset.
Country comes before your love of unnecessary guns. Country comes before your love of gas guzzling SUV's. Country comes before desperate and unworkable attempts to cling to non-renewable sources of energy. Country comes before keeping yourself comfortable no matter the impact on the environment, the world or those around you. Country comes before expanding the federal debt. Country comes before pandering to the public on taxes. Country comes before outright lying about your opponent's tax plan. Country comes before relying on trickle-down economics despite 20 years of evidence it does not work. Country comes before pretending your economic and tax policies are not the reason we are in a recession. Country comes before labeling Democrats "tax and spend liberals" when it is your party that has grown (by orders of magnitude) the debt, the trade deficit and the size of the Federal Government since Ronald Reagan was elected in 1980. Country comes before spying on its citizens. Country comes before forcing your religious beliefs down the throats of your fellow citizens. Country comes before continuing an illegal and immoral war in Iraq while our troops in Afghanistan lack sufficient support. Country comes before using a hero, posthumously awarded the medal of honor, as a campaign ad.
Country First!
