The “Wide Awakes” Sleeping at the Wheel in Response to the Government Distribution of Wealth

In Human Waste, Neo-Capitalism, War and Politics on September 18, 2005 at 11:20 AM

Good grief! I was just doing some surfing on one of those blog trafficking sites when I came across this post from Glen at The Half Asleeps The Wide Awakes.

Read the post. I submitted a rebuttal that hasn’t shown up yet. I won’t count my chickens before they’re hatched, so I will reserve judgment on that for later. In the meantime, I thought I’d put my rebuttal here.

I wrote…

What the….. I can’t believe what you just said!

Liberals changed this country? Excuse me, but isn’t President Bush in charge of this country. This entire country is run by Republicans. Even the Dems in office are Republican-like. Why are you blaming Bush’s mistakes on the Libs?

Redistributing the wealth? Excuse me? I have a full time job and am making a pretty decent amount of money. I am a Lib. Do you not realize that MY TAX DOLLARS ARE FEEDING THE POOR TOO?

Are you implying that it is just the Republicans that work, and that Libs just sit on their asses all day collecting money from your salaries? You’ve got to be kidding me.

What about the Illegal Aliens freeloading off us the U.S? You guys never complain about that. You continue displacing all your anger on the Libs and not the big guy in charge here. Illegals come here getting free education, driver licenses, mortgage loans, reduced apartment rent, no deportation for crimes committed, no checking on their immigration status because that would be politically incorrect, they get welfare, food stamps while they procreate like rabbits. Bush is not doing ANYTHING about this problem, and he’s pissing of the Minutemen by calling them vigilantes. Our security as well is in jeopardy while the towel heads from Al Queda are following behind the illegal aliens through our borders. And you Republicans say that “We’re fighting the war in terror”. The hell we are!

This is not a communist country. It’s capitalistic. If you feel you and your children aren’t getting enough food in your mouths, then it’s your responsibility to work harder, and (2) to complain to your congressman to stop welfare, food stamps, health insurance, and social security.

Sir, that’s where most of your taxes are going to. And you have the nerve to blame another tax payer like me??? Do you not realize that my taxes are supporting the war in Iraq and organizations like FEMA? But you blame me??? Even though I’m working my ass off to support even YOUR causes???

Your statements are unreasonable.

Blame Bush.

If our country is Libertarian, Conservative, Republican and run by the GOP, then there is something horribly wrong with this picture.

Or maybe Bush is just a wussy push over? He’s just giving in the the Libs wishes? Do you want a wimp as a President?

Your rant reminds me of wives who are cheated on by their husbands. Rather than blaming the husband, they blame the “other woman” instead.

Fundamentally, there’s nothing wrong with your argument. However, sir, you are pointing the finger at the WRONG people.


Well, that’s my response to the idiotic claims made by our fellow Republican bloggers.

But I’d like to add a side note in response to this:

OK, Left you win. With all your programs to fight it, programs that
have stolen honestly earned money out of my wallet as well as food out
of the mouths of my children,

Written again by Glen from that same blog entry

If you read this news article, it shows that most of the Red States are more obese than the rest of the country. So, it appears to me that Glen’s children are hardly starving.

  1. don’t hold your breath waiting for your rebuttal to appear on their site… like most of the hypnotized faithful, they only air what they want… comments are often edited, deleted or simply ignored… many similar sites don’t allow comments at all… and why should they…? they’re only following their role model, our president, who is proud of the fact that he doesn’t read, he doesn’t pay attention to polls, he doesn’t watch tv news… he only listens to those who think exactly like he does…

  2. Me thinks that I may have said something that made a little too much sense for them on their blog, and I’ve been banned as a result of it.

    …(unless of course, they’re all busy at church today)…

  3. You have a really great blog, btw.

    Don’t let the right get u down.

  4. Thanks, Graham. I don’t and I won’t.

  5. This is my impression of a typical Awakes post:

    “George Bush spoke yesterday. The liberals are morons. The war in Iraq
    is awesome. Moonbats are stupid. All liberals suck. I like Anne Coulter.
    The last thing I thought logically about was what to order for dinner.
    Liberals are morons.”

  6. I have a fun game for you to play with the Wide Mistakes or Cao’s blog. Play “Six Degrees of Separation” and I can almost guarantee you that you will eventually run into a site with a swastika or hate speech on it.

  7. Republicans/Conservatives really make me laugh. They blame everything on Democrats/Liberals and the poor. They think all welfare, food stamps, and medicaid should be completely cut, instead of reformed, they think abortion is wrong, but the death penalty is perfectly ok. We are currently fighting a war in Iraq over lies, but yet they defend it and think that the libs that are calling for impeachment are “loonies”. The Republicans are responsible for the increasing deficit, but they blame the libs…it cracks me up.

    I might not have my daily laugh if it weren’t for them.

  8. The Bastard, what is “The Six Degrees of Separation”?

  9. That’s interesting, bastard, considering Hitler was a socialist. The American Nazi party supports Cindy Sheehan, but of course, you would never admit that you’re sitting on the same side with the swastikas…it’s much easier for mental simpletons to deny their sympathizing with Islamofascists related to the muslim brotherhood who worked for Hitler and do the *heil* salute.

    Hating Israel apparently is not bigotry, lol…

    You guys should go back to sleep…

    BTW, I love your design, ticklebug, it loads really fast, and is a delight for a quick perusal…and a hearty laugh.

  10. Cao, I hope it’s not me you’re telling to go back to sleep.

    Anyway, my hard earned tax dollars are still going to those who abuse welfare, illegal aliens, Republicans who have children on SSI, and all other Liberal/Republican causes.

    Thanks for the compliment on my new layout.
