Seems like it should just be

I. They aren't Democrats
II. They aren't Democrats
III. They aren't Democrats
IV. They aren't Democrats
v. Therefore they're automatically evil.

The Democrats have their own problems but if you had to find the cause of the insanity in our political system you wouldn't point to them as the root. I doubt the author could write an equivalent article for the Democratic party.

It takes a serious level of false equivalency to think this is a bipartisan effort.

[CultureKing]

Disagree, but mostly because those terms make it seem like Romney/Ryan would intentionally harm America and I do honestly believe that they want the best for the country. It's just that my personal vision of America is different (more inclusive) than theirs.

I'll agree with points I, II, and III, but points I and II are applicable to just about every politician these days, leaving point III as the only valid one. Voted disagree.

The correct solution to this problem is to find a paper bag and to breath in and out of it.

[Vosem]

I. Yes, but that's not a reason to vote against them because the other side is no better. (Sorry, Gary Johnson...but SJoyceFla's signature overlooks something very important.)
II. "demagogue" = "someone who disagrees with me" From your POV, Romney/Ryan are demagogues -- from mine, Obama/Biden are.
III. No.
IV. No.
V. No.

Those reasons sound like Republican-style campaign points from recent elections. Especially 2004's "Kerry hates America" campaign.

Believe me, I hate Mitt Romney as much as the next guy. He's a two-faced lying phony POS. I also hate Paul Ryan, especially when he came to Pittsburgh and the jackass had the gall to wave a Terrible Towel. He's a damn Packers fan. The team responsible for us not winning our seventh Lombardi. Bastard. Paul Ryan and Mitt Romney hate Pittsburgh... Which means I hate them.

It takes a serious level of false equivalency to think this is a bipartisan effort.

But it's also not as thinky.

v. Therefore they're automatically evil.

Correction:
1. They are Republicans
etc.

wtf is an "economic arsonist"?

Shopkeepers who burn down their businesses for the insurance money?

[Free Palestine]

Yeah, sounds like Dem hackery to me.

[fezzyfestoon]

There are a LOT of people that need defeating if those are the only reasons.

or sells businesses for a profits at the expense of those who work for that business. Kinda the same thing.

This thread is unproductive and not even posted in the right forum. I'd move it, but I think we'll just be better off if I lock it.
