Woodrow Wilson

Somebody should pass that on to the DNC and all the democrats, who seem to think it is a good thing to BELONG TO THE GOVERNMENT.

OMG...how can they be that stupid...It brings back memories from awhile back when they said here's your sign...it was a sign that just simply said "STUPID"

But I guess they can just walk around together and use this sign... :stupid:
A liberal who is mugged by reality becomes conservative.
