Rant and Rave for 11/29/12

MOULTRIE — In response

“Mr. Psalmond, you asked why the Republicans didn’t stand up to Obama. Well, that was what the election was about. Obama won. So which Republicans are you talking about? Hopefully not those clowns that offered themselves for office this time. And how well did the Tea Party serve us? Yes, I’m a Republican ... a very dissatisfied one."

Let me clear it up

“There seems to be some confusion out there about the difference between Democrats and Republicans.

"So to clear it up I consulted my Washington-to- South-Georgia dictionary. Goes like this. Democrats are socialists. They like and protect socialist programs like Medicare and Social Security. Obama is a Democrat.

"Republicans are industrialists. They like big business and wealthy people. Their goal is low or no taxes on these two groups. And by the way, they don't like those two socialist programs I mentioned. Hope I've been helpful."

Closet Republican

“It looks like they were right. Obama has a secret agenda. He lied to us all. Turns out Obama's a Republican. At least that’s what Mr. Psalmond is claiming. After all, cutting Medicare and Social Security are at the top of the Republican agenda aren’t they?"

What's that?

“Mr. Psalmond, what have you been reading? You say the Democrats want to cut Social Security and Medicare? I think you’ve spilled coffee on your notes."

I'm upset

“I have lived here nine years and have not missed a Christmas parade yet, until this year. I am upset that it has been changed. Not everyone is going to be able to attend. Some have to work. College football? Really?

"I understand Packer playoffs, but those few should make a change for the many.

"I am upset that I will miss the parade and sharing it with my grandchildren's first Christmas."

Twilight zone

“Well I guess we've officially entered the twilight zone. Mr. Psalmond is now claiming the horror of the second Obama term is cutting Social Security and Medicare.

"Stop me if I'm wrong but ain't the main argument for the Republicans is that they can't get a debt deal because Obama wants to protect those two entitlements?"

All those fears

“Boy, Mr. Psalmond raised some pretty good fears didn't he? But he forgot the worst ones.

"How about the unbelievers being sent to FEMA camps.What about the ‘Death Panels. And don't forget the UN going house to house confiscating our firearms.

"But last but not least, Obama imposing Sharia law on the U.S. Get ready ladies, those burkas are going fast."
