Who is this idiot? "I Am A Republican" ?

Anyone ever heard of him?

Did he really put an ad in the Washington Post?

ON EDIT:
Seems the ad was placed in October 2004.
Sorry.
Someone just shared it with me today.

Here's what I found on the "foundation"

1. “What is a Republican?”
“… a rich, greedy, egotistical individual, motivated only by money and the desire to accumulate more and more of it, at the expense of the environment … the working poor ….and all whom they exploit…”

OR

a MORAN who has been conned to support the agenda of people who fit the above description!

17. BlueEyedSon, I have a question. It's probably a dumb one, but
I've been wondering why so many people here spell moron "moran".

2. Here is the disconnect...
WHAT I AM … is a former democrat who now understands that it is the soldier and not the reporter that guarantees us our freedoms of press, speech and dissent.

WHAT I AM … is a man who believes in the sanctity of life. A man who is repulsed by the pandering of the political left for votes, at the expense of the unborn.

4. "I am a Republican"
therefore, I can afford to put an ad in the paper, instead of actually using my money to help Jesus do his work . . .

7. Whatever ...
I will forever equate republicans with demonic, selfish half wits. They can say they're good people all they want. I've been scarred for life. I can't even think about a republican without becoming anxious anymore. They are so easily led and they just take whatever their "master" says as fact while we come closer and closer to annihilation due to their selfishness. :rant: :shrug:

8. Seems to me, he is a person with a clear, but insolent, POV...
If he spent $104+ thousand to tell people what he is, he is an idiot.

9. And...Oh Yeah...here's one you forgot , George J Eseff, Sr:
And I Am A Man...who violates section 501(c)3 of the Internal Revenue code by using tax-exempt foundation resources for partisan political purposes, so that other working taxpayers who are forced to pay payroll taxes, will have to cover for my sorry ass.

(Note: He operates as the "George J Eseff, Sr FOUNDATION")


Ya forgot that one you self-absorbed, arrogant , censorious knucklehead.

13. If the foundation paid for the ad - it wasn't "his own" money.
He wrote it off as a charitible donation and is therefore not just any republican, he's a Lying-Ass Republican!

WHAT I AM … is a man who feels the need to spend, $104, 655.60,(tax paid) of his own money,

10. What Al Capone was is a Mob Hitman Leader.....
.....Doesn't make the fact that he claimed he was a saint, an angel, and a do-good machine any more irrelevant.

In fact it makes it all irrelevant. Doesn't matter what you say, it matters how you act.


Actions speak the loudest above all words, do as I say, not as I do

12. Sounds like he's copying that "I am a Canadian" ad that was so effective
for Molson Beer. Remember that one? It poked fun at the erroneous perceptions Americans have of Canadians, while invoking feelings of pride in being a Canadian. Watch it here: http://archives.cbc.ca/IDC-1-73-1395-8738/politics_economy/beer/clip13

16. sugarcoated talking points and outright lies
Edited on Fri Aug-19-05 08:04 AM by TheFarseer
This dipstick doesn't even know he is being duped.

on edit - actually, if he took out this ad for 100K, he's a greedy asshole wrapping himself in the flag and toting a bible to mask his greed and selfishness. Thanks for perpetuating lies jerk.

21. My, but he's really quite self-important, isn't he?
Edited on Fri Aug-19-05 08:47 AM by DarienComp
"WHAT I AM.... WHAT I AM.... WHAT I AMMMM...."

Apparently, Republicans believe that the only effective way to use a rhetorical device is to drive deep into the ground. In fact, I'm quite certain that the only reason he ends where he does is that he couldn't think of anything else to add to the list.

on edit: Rereading it. It's full of goopy sentimental sounding bullshit too. Now that I think about it, Bill Maher is right. Republicans like to pretend they're tough, but they're really just just a bunch of sentimental whiners.
