Campaign Slogans

The harpercons are not just soft on crime. They're pro-crime. Their economic policies create the conditions for crime and criminals and their prison policies create repeat offenders.

Dignity. Where is the dignity in unemployment or precarious employment? Stable jobs, strong unions, decent wages, create dignity and confidence in the future. The harpercons want to rob you of your future.

Free and fair elections. The harpercons are serial violators of election laws. They're the most detestable hypocrites imaginable. Now they're proposing legislation that will make their criminal behaviour our official election rules.

In conworld, dignity like integrity, is for losers. Same with the titles of bills. Warped eh? Should be a law against it.

So i see harpee has jumped on the Ukraine bandwagon now with sanctions and defending so called 'peaceful' protesters (including skinheads and other fringe assholes that get their kicks in torching national libraries) ....anyway, its not a surprise. Its just another hypocritical statement made by a steaming duplicitous piece of shit. If we could attain the same number in crowd that Ukraine had down at their Independence square, originally for booting out some snake involved in election fraud (sound familiar), there's no doubt that martial law would be invoked and we'd see heads kicked a la G20 summit. Fucking GROSS.

liberalandlovingit,

I started this post in response to one of your last comments elsewhere. But I'm too depressed and dispirited to muster much enthusiasm.

Anonymous,

Fucking gross is right. The total hypocrisy. And they appear to have "won." I doubt Putin will take this lying down. And the fascists in authority now are going to alienate people themselves. But the USA will let them slaughter their opponents with impunity.

Thwap, having spent most of my life at one extreme or the other (bi-polar), as well as being in my various substances at one time or another, I understand. I can help. Lots of others can too. Better days are ahead. If only, (which it isn't) mathematically speaking! ;)

Thanks lali (get it?)

You're not "pushed to the left and loving it" 's latest incarnation are you?

Just curious.

Thanks again for the kind words.

I'm no~one's incarnation and I was never pushed left. I sought and I found. Liberalism to me is the most like democracy~~it's not perfect but it's the best we've got! (I've been reading and posting around here for years tho', a double?)

thwap said...

Okay. PTTLALI was a pretty good blogger and it went silent a while back.

Regardless, I'm happy to have your contributions. Sorry i don't post so much.

...do you not answer your e-mails or do I have an out-dated address?

thwap said...

Sorry about that. Answered.

Twap; a) I've received no reply. b) Did you check out "The Authoritarian's"? And, c) Do you fish?

lali,

You're not the person from T.U. who asked if I was ever going to answer my emails?

"The Authoritarians" ... I'm sorry, but I'm drunk. Did you ask me to read this or something?

I used to enjoy fishing, but it's been at least 20 years since I've done it.

Hi! No, I'm no-one you've ever met before. I entered your "Win A Date With Tad Hamilton" contest--while drunk, I might add (you emailed me and told me I didn't win,I lived too far away, dashed my hopes and heck it's just a quick spin down the 401!...anyway I'm the one drunk-typing drunk-history lessons!! Forget about the authoritarian's. They're a smug minority who'll get their's. It's always time to fish--good for the soul, brother. BFN & Have a great day THWAP!

thwap said...

I'll save up for a fishing license and wait for a free day in the warm weather. It's been a while since I've killed something. Then again, I could throw it back in the water, with a gaping tear in its cheek!

...there's catch and release or just...doing. It's what separates us from game-hunters.

...been a while since you've-- "killed something"? alrighty, then...
