Is it really that hard to THINK instead of parroting right wing propaganda?

9. Yeah well that's the 30 percenter's for you.
 There will always be a section of the population that will cut their own noses off in spite of their faces. These are the same idiots that answer Nigerian scams. And honestly think Iraq is about bringing freedom to the Iraqi people.

Some you can't help, you just have to put up with them and move on.

What's sad, is these folks make for good news, or so the piss-yellow journalists think. They don't make for any news at all. Its hardly news worthy to find some nut-bar in the obvious minority to rail against whatever the topic is. What that is, we call sensationalism. But I suspect you know this already.

I feel you pain, I've been embarrassed for my country since 1994. From Newt on, its all been down hill.

13. Ha, I've been embarrassed since 1980
 when I sat in my living room with some friends from grad school, all of us stunned that America had just
elected Ronald Reagan.

16. I was 7 and didn't understand politics then.
 1992 was my first election, but that time I had seen Regan call my mother a welfare queen, and Shrub was well, Shrub. 'nuff said. But then Clinton was a breath of fresh air, and I was proud that my country had elected him to office. then 1994 happened and it all went to shit.

Granted in hind sight the Big Dawg was not the kind of President I wanted, NAFTA... f**king dammit. Still he was better than any Bush, or Regan or McCain on any day of his 8 years than they were (and are) in their entire life times.




And they think we are stupid ?

I think it is a good question. Why would so many Americans rally behind a complete neophyte who can't go to the bathroom without a script and whose closest friends over the last 20 years have been anti-American terrorists and general America haters.

And almost half of these same people were willing to put up someone whose only credentials are being in a sham marriage to the most corrupt, immoral President in a generation.

People are, indeed, ****ing stupid.

Even if <heaven help us> Obama wins this election...

I'll still be proud of my country.

Apparently no one at the bonfire is old enough to brag of hating America since Warren G. Harding stole the election, but DUmmy apnu is moved to come back and apologize for being only a hater-come-lately.

I guess I didn't realize they had a heirarchy of hatred that depends on seniority.

I have never heard a conservative say they hate this country, or that they're ashamed of this country. If they have a beef, they take it up with the dumbass politician(s).

Face it DUmmies, you hate the damn country. You need to take your sorry asses South of the border to Venezuela or Cuba.

Oh, and that lowering of the IQ you idiots keep yapping about? It's been a snowball since you got your f'n grubby hands on the Damn educational system. It's seen with integration, when you felt black people couldn't succeed with the standards of the day. Can you say racist? It's seen with affirmative action and quotas, and the fact that you think they can't compete in the job market. Can you say racist? It's seen when you morons stop keeping score in ball games. It's seen when you ****tards make teachers stop using letter grades and red ink because you think it'll hurt the feelings of the child, not kick them in the ass and motivate them to do better. It's seen when you promote shit like African American studies, basket-weaving, ceramics, and Sociology over business, science, biology, and physics.

You ****ing idiots are the movie "Idiocracy" personified. Got Brawno?

Ask [you], they'll agree with me.

More examples of childish libs crying because the world refuses to bow down to them and acknowledge them as being the best and brightest.  They'll never look at themselves as see that they're the problem.  But it gives us a few chuckels from time to time, so it's not a complete waste.

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.

I look on this after making six ounces of formula--two seperate times--and my daughter takes it once, and my ears start ringing.  Actually, I'm the conduit for a wealthy Nigerian businessman who wants to wire the princely, vast sum of $55,000,000 into your account for safekeeping . . .

Rebel, you're right about the dumbing-down of things today.  The idiocy that is prevalent at all levels of goverment is stunning.  I thought that, by moving to a job in NYS government that wasn't dominated by PhDs, that common sense might start prevailing.  Thing is, I moved to an area dominated by lawyers.  I'm really not sure who has more common sense--the afore-mentioned daughter has as much common sense as the two groups combined, at ten months of age.

Hell, I need to do back to sleep.
