"Commies
"Commie faggots"
"Hollyweird"
"People's Republic of (Madison, San Francisco, whatever locale offends them at a given time)"

Add to this list. Best sources can be found in Nixon, Reagan, Bush and W years.

1. Oh, but I taunt my RW brother in law in Madison when I
refer to his city as the "People's Republic of Madison" just as I refer to my city as the "PEople's Republic of NEw Haven" when I talk to him!

It's great fun. It lets him know I am onto the Repub talking points and deflates the entire value of it AS a talking point.

Use their words ironically against them. They really can't find a comeback or if they do, it's lame.

At the Third Aniversary Rally in my town.
It brought back fond memories.
