Education For A Republican

[midcan5]

Folks our enrollment quota has been met again this Fall. The upper class neighborhoods are doing well and since they are, our cost structure will be changed. That's how capitalism works, but hey you knew that.

Check below our reply to potential students for some free lectures about topics of interest.

Are you $#@!ing kidding me?

Are you the kidding kind? If you enroll in our night classes soon you'll be on your way to a successful career and spokesperson of our college. You'll be able to challenge the liberal policies of equality and fairness and make them into the problem. Join now.

Yeah a whole paragraph of partisan hackery before rolling my eyes and putting that little punk on ignore after a google search revealed several other posts the exact same as this on other political forums. He's a troll, nothing more.

Troll is so unfaltering. Our school takes pride in our ideas and the above is a revised curriculum. We must spread the word. It is important that you check through our courses carefully, and if you should find one that is either irrelevant or hypocritical such as 'compassionate conservatism' we'd like to know. Our professors and student teachers are all ears if you know what we mean. We like the grassroots label, we may integrate that concept into our brochures.

Special Lecture Notices:


'Irritus now conducts free lectures covering issues that are important to our public at large. Lectures will include timely topics that often confuse and complicate our simple message. Ambiguity in messaging can confuse our base and often even us.


Guns Safety and Slogans:


Citizens have every right to be safe in America, a massively armed society does not make anyone feel safe. Obviously it's important we support weapon manufacturers but at the same time our people must win re-election. So this lecture will cover how to avoid being looked upon as a nutcase with no concern for voter's safety. Topics include:


If your constituency is not full of rabid gun nuts how you can abstain from voting.


How to answer questions about the death of a loved one by unnecessary and once illegal automatic weapons.


How to appear sincerely concerned over children's deaths.


If your constituency, like Ted Cruz's, is full of gun nuts you're among the lucky ones. But death is final so try not to smile so much. We must appear caring.


Following the lecture there will be an open forum in which tactics going forward will be covered.




War Lecture


Another war, more deaths, more Muslim hatred of America, how do we talk about and defend the complexity that is the Middle East today and the hard part is how we justify all the spending that could help America, but instead is used to pay for cruise missiles?


Number one rule, always mention Hitler.


Then say we cannot look weak and the world is really on our side even if they are not.


Make sure collateral damage is aimed at the foes and is really their fault.


Bring home a badly wounded child to be used as a detraction from the horror of war, shows how much we care.


Praise the bravery of our people and the courage of our congress even though most would never serve in the military.


Remember always that with war come war profits and you know that mantra.



Topics will be frequently updated as topics and issues enter the public arena and confuse our base.

Special Notice: What Not To Read.


Irritus college has received several requests for lists of banned books so that a new student browsing a bookstore other than our college bookstore does not inadvertently purchase a book that would confuse or complicate issues for our students. While we hate to use the word 'banned,' this list contains books that under no circumstances should even be opened for perusal - they are that dangerous.


Charles Darwin tops our list, Howard Zinn and Noam Chomsky are also verboten, most of our students already know these three names, but many of the authors below are not as familiar and should be avoided. Any book from these authors could confuse our students and even our teachers. Remember if a book does not contain God, Guns, and Freedom on its cover, use care when reviewing.


Irritus has a broad selection of writings to keep conservative republicans occupied and away from complex ideas. Ann Coulter, Glenn Beck, Michael Savage, Jonah Goldberg, Mark Levin, Sarah Palin, Sean Hannity, Bill O'Reilly, Dinesh D'Souza, and other conservatives write simply and to our point. You'll be glad to know we also have a rush order in for Rush Limbaugh's new book on being a patriot. Get it, 'rush' order.
And check sites that propagate our message: Newsmax, Fox, Heritage, Cato, Tea Party, Washington Times, and Wall Street Journal among others.


Asterisks represent the worst of the worst, double asterisk are really really really bad. Please do not Google or investigate our list.

[Tired as hell]

What kind of no-life has time to type up all that garbage?

LOL. Yet much of it is factual. I don't agree much with the social issues listed, but it's dead on when it comes to business and the free market. Business and freemarket when used by cons means, "if it's good for business, it's good for America". Even when they fire millions of americans and hire communists, in order to increase profits.

Cons always confuse individualism with selfishness and immorality. The only people who should have a responsibility are those that should be responsible and help corporations exploit workers for profit. Corporations ain't people so they don't have any social responsibility. Just make your profit anyway you can. And to hell with everyone else. That is conservative individualism. But these cons always corrupt the language, in their double speak. FNC is a master at it. They used to call it propaganda, now they call it the news.

Tired, that's a tiresome repetition of a liberal view of what conservatives say. Not one word of what you say is true for conservatives.

For example, it was the authoritarian Plato who first confused individualism with selfishness and the collective with altruism, when the opposite is true.

Also, there's a major difference between being pro-free market and pro-business, major difference.

Irritus leads the Way, Proof our methods work

What can we say, do we simply pat ourselves on the back or do we not show results, just say IRS, Benghazi, Fast and Furious, Marxism, Socialism, add in an opponent's name and the base follows and repeats. 'Deficits' and 'children's futures' work perfectly. Even 'unemployment insurance' has become a victim whistle word. Our base has helped elect ideologues who parrot the lessons of free market capitalism, free enterprise, they help destroy union fair wage ideas, and they make social justice a negative idea. No raise, no increase in minimum wage, can you spell success.


Recently the Catholic Church elected a Pope who presents a point of view contrary to our goals. So far the labeling has only started with our most ardent free market fundamentalists such as Rush. We need to tread lightly here as the Catholic church position on abortion and contraception, as well as gay marriage, has contributed greatly to our base. Single issues still control many voters, this is a good thing. We will follow up on means and methods to dilute and negate the new Pope's community and old fashioned American values.


We really want to take a bow on the 'Fifty year on Poverty' mantra, say it didn't work, and that it only created a entitled (lazy) class, and you won over our political and corporate supporters. Meanwhile as Reagan and the Bushs did - add in lots of republican held states - and you can see we have won that war. Face it readers, poverty creates cheap labor, and cheap labor increases profits. Insecurity is a great tool. Inequality is another area in which our message is winning the war. Wealth is earned, sorry for you, wages are stagnant, it's your fault. Of course use care when noting these issues and stay away from honest statistics.


It is important we add other subconscious whistles to our stock of easy answers and other distractive elements of communication. With that in mind we have instructed our facilitators to challenge their students and we challenge you reader to do the same. Slogans please, awards will be announced later this year.


In markets we trust,

Immigration Special Study 110:

In addition to course study in 'Words and Slogans 201' (see above), Irritus has added an additional two credit course on Immigration from our Southern border. Irritus realizes immigrants often come in from the sea, the North and through air travel, but those immigrants are predominantly better suited for as our base. Seriously folks the last election may have been won by Hispanics and women voters, while we can't control all our women voters, god knows we're trying, there are many counterbalancing principles such as traditional marriage and Anne Coulter to assist our base of women in having the proper viewpoint. Now how do we work the key words given our long history of immigration, Adjunct Professor Purity Nuptias gives an intense five lecture series on words and phrases. Videos of former Representative Michelle Bachmann and Rep. Louie Gohmert present critical fear tactics and hyperbolic nonsense sure to keep your base anguished and sign making. Additional note: please double check the spelling on your signs.


Spelling Help for our sign makers: Illegal, criminal element, Constitution, disease, Ebola, marijuana, prostitution, words to avoid children, humanitarian, compassion.

Please keep those donations coming, a word from some of our special students below.

What kind of no-life has time to type up all that garbage?

I was wondering the same thing, but only for a moment since I had already read other garbage from the same no-life.
