I'm Voting Republican is a satirical look at the likely outcome of another four years of Republican government. The not-so-subtle message behind the film is the importance of a united bloc of citizens willing to take the time and effort to vote Democrat in order to improve America's domestic and foreign policy.
@nafaidni If we can only get back to the Government spending level under President Clinton it would be acceptable. Todays it is nearly 45%, during Clinton was 32%, yet by all measures things are worse. Check the figures of people still looking for a job add to it those who simply gave up all together . It will send chills down your spine.
Rememeber the fable of the Goose that laid the golden eggs? The private sector is the goose. Take care of it. Protect it. Nurture it.

Not only did the private sector add almost 2 million jobs, it also laid of a massive number of GOVERNMENT JOBS!
What more could you righties ask for? Government layoffs account for a third of layoffs in 2011 and the private sector is still expanding. If this were a Republicant president, they'd be cheering for him achieving such progress in only 3 years.

"Health care, durable goods manufacturing and hospitality and food service are the basis of much of that growth. The healthcare industry saw an especially huge gain of 350,300 workers, helped in part by an unprecedented influx of young men into the industry...
By and large it was lower-paying postions that saw the most job gains... a truth that helped undo losses felt by groups hardest hit by the Great Recession. But any private-sector gains were countered by big losses in government positions"

"the labor market ended the year on a positive note, with the jobless rate falling in December to its lowest level in almost three years. And it has quite a few areas of economic strength to thank for any progress.
All together, the private sector created 1.9 million jobs last year... After months of struggle, the job market finished strong, adding 200,000 jobs in the final month, while almost simultaneously seeing jobless claims fall to their lowest four-week moving average since June 2008."

GDP isn't the greatest indicator of progress; if it were, then I think more people would actually think the recession were over in 2010, when the real growth rate was over 3%; something that happened in only two years for Bush (it was over 4% for five years under Clinton, and +3% was certainly not common for the 2000s).
The things that people actually notice are things like job creation, which is higher than since 2006. I believe the Great Depression took 5 years to even stop at all.

@Ferret34 obviously the stereotypes are inaccurate. its an exaggeration of republican values. the video does well in its serving its purpose; its not supposed to be an intellectual, complex analysis of what republicans really believe. nice attempt at an intelligent comment though

Wait... was that Republican... or Democrat? 'Not sure there's much difference. In action, the Parties are much more alike, than different. Nicely assembled collection of sophomoric, one-dimensional, largely-inaccurate stereotypes. Politics by caricature. Nice production values, though.

@hawker445 You keep digging your hole deeper. Your assumption is proving that you are a moron. I am not a Republican and am not party affiliated. And your assumptions about the wants of the republican party are based on speculation.

@budakhan79 No, i can see the bad parts of it. And what are those to you? Killing babies and tree huggers, big government? There are more lies and hypocrisy that resides in your party. If you keep doing what you are doing now per say, (using as much oil as you can) there wont be any left for future generations due to growing global demand. Politicians in your party would rather keep 3rd world countries the way they are.
