GOPers Dispute Facts, Deeds, and Words — Even Their Own

Rush Limbaugh "Mr. Republican" Said as Much

Post Hobby-Lobby (5-4) Decision

(Spreading Like Wildfire)

True: Hobby-Lobby Plan Covers Viagra for Men 

(Their plan also covers Vas snip-snip)

Yes, these are cartoons, but sometimes they make the point better than anyone else, and usually the image sticks. So, kudos for those I posted above.

Now, look at all the things wrong in America right now from the real obvious: poverty, lack of healthcare (and the assault on the ACA), guns, crime, education, unemployment, and the less obvious: pollution of both our air and drinking water, global warming on our weather patterns and what that holds for the future.

Then look at the Republican solutions ever since 2010 taken from here (there are more examples), and from here (original source story):

Legislation against the teaching of evolution, banning the word “gay” from schools, denying women control over their own uteruses and health care decisions, banning contraception (e.g., Hobby-Lobby), legislation to put children back to work and limit the pay of middle class workers, legislating the Ten Commandments, and BTW, none of these things address any of the real problems faced by Americans every single day. 

Even when they do touch on an actual problem – proclaiming days of prayer to combat drought – the solution is laughable. Somehow they think that will stick; it will with their base, but that's about it.

Obvious Fact: The GOP has no intention at all of addressing these or most other serious problems. 

They are, however, very anxious to address non-existent problems, to identify and then legislate against them. BTW: There has been no evidence of job creation legislation coming from the Republican-controlled House. Nothing at all.

Examples: Despite an electorate that is overwhelmingly pro-choice, there is no doubt that the GOP’s first goal is to deprive women of their reproductive rights and to frame that argument not as one of health but religion. It is in fact so important an issue to the GOP that out of some 40,000 laws of all types enacted in 2011, as RMuse wrote here recently, “there were nearly 1,000 bills in state legislatures to restrict a woman’s right to legal abortion services” (up from 950 in 2010). 

Alternet lists the 10 worst states in which to be a woman. The lone piece of good news was the unexpected sanity of Mississippi voters. Interestingly, the GOP is now trying to co-opt the War on Women for their own, accusing liberals of waging war on “pro-choice” women, or declaring that Obama is waging a war on women and that the Obama White House has been a hostile work environment. This is while Congress, already in 2012, has taken no less than eight votes against women – in just three months. It is frightening to think what the final toll might be by December 31.

A recent report from the Guttmacher Institute details the extent of 2011’s war on Women’s Reproductive Rights.

GOPers who read this, and I doubt it would be many, will dispute, ignore and toss anything on this page, and that is their choice (wow, they support choice after all), but they can not dispute, ignore, or toss the truth (the facts) no matter how hard they try to bury and hide body of truth. I believe we will find out in November 2014 (I hope so) and certainly in 2016 (again fingers crossed for savvy voters). Stay tuned.
