Why you must vote Republican (a devil's advocate comment)
Edited on Sat Sep-30-06 10:54 AM by ngant17
Repugs want to trick people into thinking they need Big Government to protect them from the world terrorist threat, mainly because they've abandoned the platform of states' rights since the 2000 vote scam, and to them, the individual no longer counts in the big picture of the never-ending war on 'terra'. Because only big guns and a big army (which only Big Government can muster)are the only ways to defeat this new threat which is harder to define than the old communist threat.

Before 911, you had the communist threat. But it was easier to identify communists and socialist because of the red flags they were waving. The terrorists often have no national flag to wave, they often are not even a recognized government in the lands where they are found.

This above logic will be accepted by a lot of Americans because there are literally millions of us who can not think rationally, logically and coherently. I think it has something to do with mass media control of the information.
