100. What else do you think we should just give to republicans?

Clearly you're willing to give up women's rights. You're willing to give up the separation of church and state. You're willing to let LBGTQs be discriminated against.

FUCK THE REPUKES!!! Don't give them a fucking thing. Fight with everything you've got. Even if you lose the press will broadcast what you want and what you're against because the media loves a fight. Fight, fight, fight. It may not help with this particular issue but keep doing and eventually everything we want will be attained.

It is poor strategy to give repukes anything. That has NEVER worked for us in the end. That only works for repukes. Hell, don't even give them the respect of a decent name. They're filthy lying stinking repukes. Make them earn respect.
