The Lovenstein Institute - Scranton, PA: "It is tough being a Republican in 2008.
Somehow you have to believe concurrently that:
* Jesus loves you, but shares your deep hatred of homosexuals and Hillary Clinton.
* A woman can't be trusted with decisions about her own body, but multi-national corporations can make decisions affecting all humankind without regulation.
* The United States should get out of the United Nations, but our highest national priority is enforcing U. N. resolutions against Iraq and Iran.
* 'Standing Tall for America' means firing your workers and moving their jobs to India.
* 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 best way to improve military morale is to praise the troops in speeches, while slashing veterans' benefits and combat pay.
* A president lying about an extramarital affair is an impeachable offense. A president lying about WMD existence to enlist support for an unprovoked, undeclared war and occupation in which thousands of soldiers and hundreds of thousands civilians die, is, somehow, solid 'defense' policy in a 'War against Terrorism'.
* Group sex and drug use are degenerate sins, unless you someday run for governor of California as a Republican."
