Let's remind Republicans we know:

"Patriotism means to stand by the country. It does not mean to stand by the president or any other public official..." - Theodore Roosevelt"

War is a racket. It always has been. It is possibly the oldest, easily the most profitable, surely the most vicious." - General Smedley Butler

"Truth does not change according to our ability to stomach it." - Flannery O'Connor

IQ Test (a joke)

A man enters a bar and orders a drink.

The bar has a robot bartender.

The robot serves him a perfectly prepared cocktail, and then asks him, "What's your IQ?"

The man replies "150" and the robot proceeds to make conversation about global warming factors, quantum physics and spirituallity, biomimicry, environmental interconnectedness, string theory, nano-technology, and sexual proclivities

The customer is very impressed and thinks, "This is really cool." He decides to test the robot. He walksout of the bar, turns around, and comes back in for another drink.

Again, the robot serves him the perfectlty prepared drink and asks him, "What's your IQ?" The man responds, "about a 100." Immediately the robot starts talking, but this time about football, NASCAR, baseball, supermodels, favorite fast foods, guns, and women's breasts.

Really impressed, the man leaves the bar and decides to give the robot one more test.

He heads out and returns, the robot serves him and asks, "What's your IQ?" The man replies, "Er, 50, I think."

And the robot says... real slowly..."So............... ya gonna vote for Bush again?"
