Is this the thrid plea for money?

That was the unfunniest thing I ever saw.  Leave it to a libtard to attempt the lamest of humor.

We might consider donating...maybe...if you stop stifling independent thought by banning anything that even remotely looks like a conservative.

The biggest reason seems to have been omitted:  Why would you give any money to people who seethe with mindless hatred for you?

Yes, and that's highly unusual.

In the past, usually it took only one bonfire from my fellow alum Skins to get it going, and burning, until the goal was achieved.

I suspect what's going on is that primitives are being tight, giving the minimum of $5, instead of more like they used to.  And 345 (the last number I recall seeing) x $5 isn't but peanut shells.

By the way, thundley4, sir, it's the third man on the totem pole, Elad, who's the elusive enigmatic one, the one hard to define because he stays in the background.

EarlG, the second man on the totem pole, the British subject, is Lord Marblehead, because he thinks he knows all about America and Americans even before the soles on his shoes are dry from coming ashore here.  He's trying to emulate Fanny Trollope and Charles Dickens and Randolph Churchill, and flops worse than they did.

Thanks Frank.  I don't spend much time on the Island, and many of the primitives look alike. I only remembered that Earl was one of the big guys.

Oh yes, historical Britons who smugly condescended to tell us all about ourselves, based on their own preconceived stereotyped notions. The British are famous (infamous?) for going to foreign lands and criticising the natives for not being British. Makes you wonder why they don't just stay in their island paradise. (Actually, I know the answer to that one-they want the "foreign savages'" money, or labor, or land, or technological savvy.)

The left are quite proficient at doing exactly that.

Unfortunately for them not all people are quite so nihilistic.

Judging by the suck factor of the captions, EarlG must be the one that also writes the Top Ten Conservative list, or whatever its called.

Awful.  Truly awful.
This post is disruptive, hurtful, rude, insensitive, over-the-top, or otherwise inappropriate.

No, my friends, there’s only one really progressive idea. And that is the idea of legally limiting the power of the government. That one genuinely liberal, genuinely progressive idea — the Why in 1776, the How in 1787 — is what needs to be conserved. We need to conserve that fundamentally liberal idea. That is why we are conservatives. --Bill Whittle

Sounds like a donation to a mosque.
