Wannabe Minority Republicans Wake Up!

This post is directed at the wannabe conservatives who are working class joe's who aspire to be "the man". More pointedly the non-white voters who think being in a Red State is somehow cool or by association think they're well off. You're not reaping those Bush Tax breaks if you're making $40,000. You don't benefit from decreasing social programs. You're getting played by fake "Jesus freaks" who put gay marriage on the ballot to get your vote. And to prove it, ask yourself this: does the GOP have anyone like you they'll promote and vote for?

“Just a few years after the Republican Party launched a highly publicized diversity effort, the GOP is heading into the 2008 election without a single minority candidate with a plausible chance of winning a campaign for the House, the Senate or governor,” notes the Politico. This dry spell is the longest since the 1980s.

Don't think you poor white guys are off the hook, either. Being scared is no way to go through life. You live in a backwater, the newest building in your town is the Post Office. You make less money and work harder. But you still vote for the GOP. You're useless.
