I’ve seen more dumbass tweets and comments lately that directly say Republicans are the cause of everything from Tornadoes in OK to bridge collapses in Washington.<\/p>\n

I’ve got news for you people… <\/p>\n

As a Republican I wish I had that kind of power… If the Republicans had that kind of power do you think President Obama would have won the election? Here’s a better question. If Republican had that kind of power… do yo think they’d unleash it on other Republicans? <\/strong>Uh… NO dumbass they’d have destroyed democratic strongholds!<\/em><\/p>\n

Ok, So stop with the moronic diatribe. <\/p>\n

I’m disappointed in, and ashamed of a lot of folks in this country.<\/p>\n

In particular I’m ashamed of people who in the midst of a disaster, chose to comment along partisan lines making political points.<\/p>\n

Need I remind you that 24 children DIED in Moore OK?<\/p>\n

How is this any different from the tragedy of Sandy Hook? Oh yes, one was a tornado the other was an insane guy with guns.<\/p>\n

I guess there is a difference… but not to the parents who buried their children.<\/span><\/p>\n

Where is the wailing and gnashing of teeth? Where is the 24 hour news coverage? Where’s the indignation? Wheres the outrage that a public building wasn’t safe for children to be attending school?<\/p>\n

Within hours of the tornado touching down there were people making comments publicly on Twitter that implied, or directly said somehow a red state like OK was deserving of a tragedy BECAUSE they were a RED state. <\/p>\n

Worse yet were comments saying that because the Republican party had voted against a bill (apparently loaded with pork<\/em>) to allocate more money for victims of hurricane Sandy, Oklahoma was somehow Karmic payback. <\/p>\n

Frankly, one dumbass comment I could overlook as someones village idiot getting access to a computer.<\/p>\n

However, the torrent of similar comments on Twitter and even being posted on major news sites covering the tornado simply made me want to vomit.<\/p>\n

I was offended, sickened, and honestly wanted nothing more than to backhand the lot of these people. Including some people I call friends. I haven’t decided yet If I’ll still call them friends… Time will tell.<\/p>\n

How the hell do you figure anyone was deserving of a MILE WIDE tornado?<\/p>\n

In a disaster there are no Democrats or Republicans, there are just people who have in many cases lost it all. They’re Americans<\/strong> and they’re hurt and their community is in shambles.<\/p>\n

The only thing we as Americans should be saying is “How can we help? How do we get them supplies and medical aid?<\/em><\/strong>” Costs be damned! Let the accountants figure it out later. <\/p>\n

Glen Beck, whom I don’t listen to… I know he’s a media personality, I know he’s a conservative, I suspect from what I’ve heard him quoted as saying that he & I will probably not agree on too many points<\/em>… called on his listeners for unloaded 18 wheelers to load up emergency supplies an hour after the tornado touched down.<\/p>\n

He used his fame and media connections to start coordinating relief efforts.<\/p>\n

He could have been taking pot shots at FEMA. He could have started flinging shit at the Obama administration. I don’t know if he did. <\/em><\/p>\n

What I do know is that a Tweet that came from him and was retweeted, gaining momentum and that more and more people were saying great idea! How can we help?<\/p>\n

That’s what Americans are supposed to do. <\/p>\n

Political posturing, grandstanding, and bullshit are supposed to evaporate when it comes time for us to pull together.<\/p>\n

Maybe we All should remember that.<\/p>\n

I’d suggest that the Ultra Liberal Democrats take note…<\/p>\n

I’m a Republican who’s not pleased with the Republican party. But I will never switch to the Democratic party if this is what passes for acceptable behavior.<\/p>\n

I will however redouble my efforts to help the Republican party repair itself and grow.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
