How bad do you have to be to do this?

Not quite sure what this has to do with the Election, although it is the perfect analogy of mrs. clinton's campaign.

Wow -- any idea what the heck happened?  I don't know from heleo-copters.
If you want to worship an orange pile of garbage with a reckless disregard for everything, get on down to Arbys & try our loaded curly fries.

O k I goofed. I wanted to put this in the lounge so if a mod would move it I would really appreciate it. What happened is the pilot didn't watch what he was doing andhe flew righht into the hanger door with the rotor baldes. The amazing thing is no one was hurt or killed with all the parts flying around from the crash.

Ah -- I couldn't see the doors because they were above the camera.  On replay the cameraman was lucky HE wasn't injured -- had he not been inside the hangar who knows.

And I still like my analogy -- if you can't get a video of a train wreck, this is then next best thing!  ;)

There's a reason why patriotism is considered a conservative value. Watch a Tea Party rally and you'll see people proudly raising the American flag and showing pride in U.S. heroes such as Thomas Jefferson. Watch an OWS rally and you'll see people burning the American flag while showing pride in communist heroes such as Che Guevera. --Bob, from some news site
