Democrat Pilot And Republican Co-Pilot Argue Over How Fast They Should Fly Plane Into Ground
The Babylon Bee ^ | June 1, 2021 | The Babylon Bee

U.S.—According to alerts from the FAA, the flight crew of a Boeing 747 flying somewhere over the United States is locked in a dispute over how fast they should crash their plane into the ground.

Witnesses say the pilot, a Democrat, wants to fly the plane into the ground at 700 MPH.

The Republican co-pilot, however, has proposed crashing at a much more reasonable speed of 600 MPH.

"We need to be responsible here!" said First Officer Dan McTan, who prides himself in his Conservative values. "700 MPH is reckless and irresponsible! Crashing at 600 MPH will allow the crew and passengers a full 1.3 seconds of additional life before they are incinerated in a massive fireball! Let's be reasonable!"

Pilot In Command Xanderillo Cruggsteen disagrees. "700 MPH is the way to go and you're a racist!!!!" he responded with a loud and terrible shriek.

In the end, the crew members elected to dive into the earth below at 695 MPH. Thankfully, the Democrat pilot and Republican Co-Pilot each had very expensive parachutes and were able to bail out safely before everyone else went down.

It became apparent to me that this was the case in 2005 when W said “see ya’ at the signin’” about amnesty.

Both parties have been importing a permanent Democrat majority of foreigners for 30 years.
They intend to use those foreigners to steal our country from us and subsume it to the United Nations.

Democrats in the DNC proper are insane.

Republicans in the RNC proper are about 5 years behind the DNC.

I think there’s much truth to your comment.

W thinks he might only need Manuel to trim his lawns.

China thinks they might only need W for his kidneys.

This aligns with my idea that the only difference between the two parties is that the Democrats want to turn totally socialist on Monday and the Republicans say it can wait until Thursday. The timing is the only difference between the two.

It’s a sick game with the GOP being the fake opposition to provide the illusion of there being a choice for voters. Both parties long term goal is destruction of the middle class end enslavement.

Reminds me of the current “infrastructure” bill.

To be specific that is what RNC believes in. Not the Republicans in general.

This reminds me of why I joined the Constitution Party and left the Republicans. For me they were valueless because their motto had become, “Vote for us we are just as good as the Democrats”.

As I saw it, it was, “Vote for us; we’re not quite as bad as the Democrats and what other alternative do you really have?”

Point taken. I’m sure most of my former fellow Republicans — I left last October — don’t believe in the same warped visions as the GOP-e politicians.
