An elderly man suffered a massive heart attack.

The family drove wildly to get him to the emergency room. After what seemed
Like a very long wait, the E.R. Doctor appeared, wearing his scrubs and a long face .

Sadly, he said, "I'm afraid he is brain-dead, but his heart is still beating."

"Oh, Dear God," cried his wife, her hands clasped against her cheeks with shock
"We've never had a democrat in the family before!!!"

There was a man who was a lifelong conservative and die-hard Republican. He had campaigned for every Republican for as long as anyone could remember. He grew old and feeble and as his last days were drawing near he called his son to his bedside and asked that as his last request his party affiliation be changed to Democrat.
"Father, No, how could you even consider that?" his son bemoaned, "you helped to sway and even register more than half of the Republicans in this town, I cant believe that you would really want that."
The old man looked up at his son, took a raspy breath and said, "Son, if someones got to die, it may as well be one of them!"
 
Things a good republican must believe:

Saddam was a good guy when Reagan armed him, a bad guy when Bush's daddy made war on him, a good guy when Cheney did business with him, and a bad guy when Bush needed a " we can't find Bin Laden " diversion.

Trade with Cuba is wrong because the country is communist, but trade with China and Vietnam is vital to a spirit of international harmony.

Jesus loves you, and shares your hatred of homosexuals and Hillary Clinton.

The USA should get out of the United Nations, and our highest national priority is enforcing U.N. resolutions against Iraq.

A good way to fight terrorism is belittle our long-time allies, then demand their cooperation and money.

Providing health care to all Iraqis is sound policy. providing health care to all Americans is socialism.

Global warming and tobacco's link to cancer are junk science, but creationism should be taught in schools.

Government should limit itself to the powers named in the constitution, which include banning gay marriages and censoring the internet.

Being a drug addict is a moral failing and a crime, unless you're a conservative radio host. then it's an illness, and you need our prayers for your recovery.

The public has a right to know about Hillary's cattle trades, but Bush's drunk driving record and cocaine arrest are none of our business.

If condoms are kept out of schools , adolescents won't have sex.
 
Dude most posters on this board are going to open up on you as you know. My respect to you for stating what you believe and what in many cases I also find to be true. I'm going to have to remember that post for many of my Republican friends. In fact I think I'll go to the bar right now for some political discussion in my largely Republican part of the world. It should lead to some interesting discussion. Keep up the good fight.
 
Now I understand why some of the "ol'guys,
I used'to read on this forum are no longer on
here.

Some warned me, but it took firsthand exp. to
understand.

You guys were right.
 
Thanks Corn, actually I got these from a fellow disenchanted republican a while back . My cowtown is mostly republican also, I've never been a fan of Bush or his war and a few years ago speaking out against either were fighting words in the local water hole, if I wasn't big enough most of them were cowards and hadn't had enough friends to keep the pack effect from starting I'd have had several dances. now days even the Captian America types admit somethings got to change, you can have a debate, a few beers and some laughs without the traitor crap being thrown at you. have fun at the bar , if I didn't have to wait on water to restart a couple pivots that's where I'd be headed.
 
What's the matter Ive? is it like when the " colored folk " got to join the golf club?
 
By they way Dude,
It' LVE2143.

Dude, you're a sheathead for dragging race into
this.

You know better. We, know better, so let's keep
it clean.

After that little response of your's, I'd like to shove
a 7 iron up your you know what.

Race-baiting POS.

I thought a little better of you than that.

I was DAMNED wrong.

Lighten up dork, with all the racial crap that goes on around here you thought that was over the top? grow up, I didn't say anything you couldn't hear on primetime TV.
 
FOR CRYING OUT LOUD.... Don't you all think we're taking ourselves a little too seriously. Personal attacks on this forum mean nothing to me nor should they to any of you.. $10 bucks says your opinion ain't going to change anybody's mind.

We are all Americans and are working toward the same goal... voice your opinion and listen to others. It's called democracy.

If you are the most offensive... what do you win?

At least the dude has a heart. Not naming names but I know a few cold hearted, brain dead bastages out there, They live in the White House!!!

Race baiting? I thought it was funny. if you didn't you could have said so in a civil mannor, I'll try to be more politically correct if you're going to go Sharpton on me.
 
I didn't know you could edit your own post? that would come in handy, now my last post doesn't make sense. OK I'll back off too.
 
Well I'm new to this site and if the other sections of this forum were like this I would definatley be on my way. Being from central california I come from farming family. My grandfather bought all the grandkids our first hunting licences and a lifetime membership to the nra. So you know what side I'm on. That being said, I'm not so blind to understand that this country needs balance...If the elephants got everything they wanted we would have fully auto rifles and no where to use em because there would be oil and gas wells all over our now already threatened wilderness areas. Same for the donkeys (jackasses) sorry, could'nt help myself. Anyways, Like I was saying if the dems had it there way we'd have no guns,and the only farmers left would be growin dope on there balconys in downtown Berkley! And...And...And, Who knows how it would affect our beloved heritage. Most liberals cant even begin to understand conservation through hunting. They think we need to let all the deer and squirrels lead a peacefull life while we keep crankin out kids and building homes on thier habitat.I know there's plenty of other issues at hand but I guess my 2cents is this, We all have priorities that fall on either side of the political bounderies. But we must not fall short of protecting whats most important of all.....The right to keep and bear arms at any cost, and to protect our hunting heritage and lands no matter what the letter next to the canidates name. Sorry for the long post....Good luck to everyone in the upcoming draws and hunting season....Ryan
 
Hardway I'm with you on the gun thing but I have to ask , just what have the republicans done for the farmer? Tom Daschle was the only pro ag voice we had in DC and he got booted over religious issues in his very conservative state. as a farmer/rancher I hear this all the time and when I ask the question I just ask you I've yet to get a good answer, clear back to Nixon's time the republicans have been tough on ag. welcome to the forum, well some of us still aren't welcome but we hang around anyway.
 
Not to mention all the dead people who voted for Daschle. All farmers / ranchers we associate with are Republican. Dems continue to try and restrict their operations from envrionmental issues on their own land to dust control when they disk.
 
arrowone4me. What! Are you saying all farmer/ ranchers are Republicans or just the ones you know? Do you remember the lack of control on farm chemicals in the 60's. As an Iowa farm kid Im still waiting for some of the effects of what we used carelessly at times to effect me. Daschle was an effective force for agriculture, difficult to do today to many urban congressmen with other issues taking the spotlight.
 
Hardway. Ben Nelson a jackass (democrat) is an effective force for ag. in the Senate for Nebraska and other midwest states IMO. Chuck Hagel our Republican Senator is not much of a force for ag. Welcome to the forum enjoyed reading your opinion. I just don't think you can generalize republicans are good for ag. and democrats are bad depends on constituents they represent.
 
Dead people who voted for Daschle? you're right most farmers are republican but it has more to do with rural values than economic reasons. the dems have always been better friends to ag than the republicans have but most in the industry won't admit it. if the price of oil hadn't made bio fuels a major issue American ag would be a total wreck right now and the government wouldn't have done a thing about it. why should they China has lots of poison food we can import cheap for a while anyway. I'm not trying to turn this into an ag debate most of you have made it clear you don't care for the industry, Hardway made a comment and I asked a question that's all.

WHAT I FIND DIFFICULT TO UNDERSTAND IS HOW ANYONE COULD POST SOMETHING LIKE THIS AND BE AFRAID TO ADMIT HE IS A LIBERAL?
DID ANYONE ELSE NOTICE HOW CONVENIENTLY HE LEFT OUT THE CLINTON ADMINISTRATION?

Well maybe I should have been a little more specific. The local issues across this country are too abroad for me to generalize all reps and dems in specific groups, But here in my home state of Ca I would say at least 90% of the farmers in my area are registered republican. And that goes for our local supervisors of whom are mostly farmers and most of our Farm Bureu elected officers. Now to address your question huntindude, most of the issues we are dealing with here in cen ca are enviromental issues....Clean air act,what chems we can use,how we use them,dairy waste, and so on. But the point being, most of the time were up against the liberal enviromentalist which I have no use for. Most farmers would agree NAFTA is'nt really what we thought it would be. Works great for some export markets but has destroyed some local markets with cheap imports. So what I 'm saying is this, I dont believe all dems are that different from reps. The reality being the dems are lumped in with the liberal wack jobs and the rep are in with the conservative dont listen to ACDC Wackos and we usually only have two choices. So there you go, Most level headed people fall somewhere in the middle and maybe leanin one way or another. My priorities lean Republican and yours may lean Democrat but on most issues were probably leaning torwards the same common goal.
 
I was talking on a national level so your local issues could be very different I'm sure. I think you're right, most of us want the same outcome we just see different paths to get there.
 
Huntindude is right. Most farmers love democrats. That's because there are few small farms left and the agricultural giants like being paid to not grow. Subsidize then socialize, right dude?
 
No it's more like subsidize just enough to keep too many farmers alive thus keeping the market in the toilet. then open up to unregulated imports of cheap low quality crap. the farm programs have been the best investment the tax payer ever made, they insured a cheap stabile food supply. sorry to tell you but food prices are going to go up, some things way up, farm programs may not be needed anymore but you're going to start paying for your meal, and it's all thanks to bio fuels. the crops I grow aren't in the programs but many midwest grain producers have been working the farm and a job in town for years just to survive, they're now going to get a fair price as we all will for our products , I love it.

When most people find they can't make a living doing what their doing, they get off their butts and find something else. But not farmers, they whine, they complain they say their going broke. Heck, I've seen them whine all the way while driving home in their new Cadillac just puchased with cash from the local dealer. You see, I grew up on a farm also, and I have a excellent memory!
They also appear to have a lot of free time.............

mossback maybe after two , three or four generations on a farm or ranch it's hard to just walk away. some producers can't cut it and they do fail, as they should but in the past many areas and for many crops even the best ones couldn't hold their ground. ag isn't like a popcorn stand you don't just set up and start sellling, it takes years to rotate ground, crops, genetics, seed or whatever. you're one of the ones who doesn't need ag because you get your food from the store I can tell, American agriculture will continue to supply a stabile safe food supply but it may no longer be cheap. go ahead and eat your cheap Chinese imported crap and take your chances we don't care, we can sell to the biofuel plants and you seem happy to pay whatever they ask for fuel.
 
Great points made huntindude, Its unbelievable how different the challenges are there compared to here in nor cal. My family farms about 90% almonds and if we were'nt able to export we'd be dead. I wont quote the # but a very small % is consumed here in the U.S. with most of our product going oversees. Speaking of whining......You know the difference between a dairy farmer and a puppy.......... When the puppy gets big he quits whining!
 
Man Hardway, that is funny. Our dairy guys are crying like little girls over feed prices. No one will grow silage corn for them with grain corn being so high. boo hoo.....

JB
 
See my area is just the opposite, our main crops were mint oil and Garlic seed, sent Gilroy, China and India have killed us with their cheap imports so it's back to hay, wheat and cattle here on the high dessert. I hear you on the dairymen, I've sold hay to them for years and they ALWAYS have something to whine about, if it's not the quality it's the price or both. in their defense if I was tied down 24-7 my whole life I'd be worse, I can't imagine a worse life than a dairyman but they can't imagine any other life. I love dairy products so unlike some of the whiners on here I appreciate them. it's hard to imagine a gallon of gas costing more than a gallon of milk, and like always with ag they get a small fraction of that.
 
Hah! I figured that would get a few comments. With all respect to the dairymen though, It aint an easy life. They have some serious air quality/air pollution issues here in california right now.And I hear ya about their feed crops, with fuel costs so high they cant afford to truck the corn and oat silage to the dairy. If its not within 10 miles or so you better find somethin else to plant cause they cant afford it anymore.
