Republican No More, I joined this forum got a ZOT!

Life long republican - Drive by troll

[Sara F]

All my life, I believed in Republican values -- individual responsibility and limited government. Then it happened; I found myself with a small child, unemployed and disabled. I turned to my church, and after years of regular tithes, suddenly I just wasn't their problem. My Republican friends? I was now a pariah to them.

My only relief was to turn to government assistance for housing, food, and other needs and I was able to survive with dignity.

So chalk me up as one who no longer drinks the GOP koolaid.

Well, your winning plenty of friends here wity your sunshiney attitude. You should have chose actual friends instead of making them up in your mind, along with your kid and disability

[Andy from Beaverton]

If you believed in Republican values, you would tell us the truth and show us your voter registration card that says you are a DumbAsCrap.

What does this have to do with being a Republican??

Or is this about attending church?

I'm confused.

Where's your husband, SaraF?

Or did you get pregnant out of wedlock? Monica Lewinsky could teach you about oral contraception...

"Sucks to be you."

(IF some slimebag had left you, you'd have mentioned that in your little jeremiad there...)

Cheers!

I can understand your disatisfaction and your looking favorably on the help you recieved.

Question though, did the government assistance you received really go so far as to keep you afloat, help you keep your lifestyle?

I don't think I have heard of a case where that safety net you bounced into was all that comfortable.

Something does not sound right in your explanation of events.

Since you've decided to become a Ward of the State, and obviously enjoy being taken care of at others' expense, you've shown yourself to be tremendously irresponsible. I only hope your dependency doesn't rub off on your children. Thank you for improving the overall quality of the Republican party by disappearing.

... and then apparently, even though disabled, and with a small unclaimed child, you logged onto F/R to post this screed.

[hinckley buzzard]

You'll be happier amongst the liberals with your attitude.

Really. This is probably why she didn't mention having any family to rely on, the usual first line of support. Of course it's the republicans' fault, that she doesn't have any reliable personal relationships. Poor thing, she's definitely 'rat material.

[Bogey78O]

So public assistance turned you into a Democrat. Great story.... uh yea.

Dear Sara F,Who gives a rats a$$!

[Right Wing Professor]

The local college Republicans broke in, forced her to make an obscene phone call to her boss, kneecapped her, and left a toddler that they'd kidnaped from Headstart before driving away laughing maniacally.

Those crazy kids! They promised me they'd give that up!

Just like a democrat--always trying to buy their way out of problems.

Sara, hon, tell your story walking...

[Not A Snowbird]

Forgive my skepticism, Sara.

You don't sound like a person with conservative values to me.

[ConservativeMan55]
