I just noticed something interesting about Repukes and weight loss
Edited on Tue May-16-06 08:27 PM by saracat
I belong to a weight loss board that has lots of Repukes. They frequently delete my posts as political even if I say nothing about Bush! I recently noticed a correlation with weight loss and political affiliation. Almost all the Repukes blame advertising and the media for their weight problem! They feel it is not possible for them to lose weight as long as commercials showing food are allowed. It seems they think it is irresponsible of the networks to even allow food commercials! This proves what kind of sheep they are. Another thing I noticed, they cannot follow the rules of a diet and whine constantly that they just can't give up whatever. Liberals usually master the diet plan, (actually "read" it) and lose weight.The Repukes spend all their effort trying to have their cake and eat it too. They are constantly regaining their weight and never blaming themselves. Just wanted to share.

1. I certainly have encountered people like that on a diet board I used to go
to but, at the time, there were no political comments at all so I couldn't make that correlation.

My sister, who is a Republican, always blames her thyroid and talks about how she doesn't overeat. She forgets that we've seen her at family functions loading up her plate. But she's that way about everything in her life -- she's the ultimate victim. :shrug:
