« on: September 25, 2008, 01:28:46 PM »
I'm not going to bother with the OP since I started to doze off after the first paragraph.

Funny exchange

It was the following exchange that got me laughing.

4. And homes for us homeless people.
   
Yes, I do believe this is part of the plan.

Redistribution of wealth, indeed.

When you are the beneficiary of someone’s kindness and generosity, it produces a sense of gratitude and community.

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.

Oh Jesus, I must be in an alternative universe. So we take the absolute biggest losers, failures at life, mentally ill, and/or lazy and make them in charge of something they are obviously so good at making and managing: money. Their smarts overwhelm me again :bow: :banghead: :banghead:

Did anyone else hear on Rush where Frank said that the feds should be the landlords?  Talk about taking forever to get your sink fixed :thatsright:
Destroy all that which is evil, so that which is good may flourish

Women and children are precious resources to be protected at all costs.  Men are expendable commodities whose function is to protect those resources, at all costs.

So how does it feel to know that someone's kid in the heart of america has blood on their hands to defend your rights so you can maintain a lifestyle that insults his family's existence?

I dunno about this bobbling primitive, the "bobolink" primitive, who's rated as a bottom-of-the-barrel primitive.

She's always griping about being homeless, when in fact she isn't homeless.

She's in public housing, paid for by the taxpayers.

The only thing I can figure out is possibly the bobbling primitive expects rent-free (to her) housing something along the lines of a wing of Buckingham Palace.

Just what we need, more subsidized government housing for democrat voters who will only tear them up.
“The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But, under the name of ‘liberalism’, they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.” - Norman Thomas, U.S. Socialist Party presidential candidate 1940, 1944 and 1948

Frank, didn't this idiot, bobbolink, say it left subsidized housing because it couldn't get along with the manger ... there by making itself homeless on purpose?

Yes, she did, but then was placed in some other public housing, but whether temporary or permanent, the bobbling primitive never said.

I think the bobbling primitive should move from Denver to Baltimore, where resides the real-estate mogul the sparkling husband primitive, with all these really nice restored row-houses.  Since the sparkling husband primitive is always griping about cold-blooded Republicans not willing to share, and warm-hearted Democrats, I think perhaps the sparkling husband primitive can help the bobbling primitive, setting her up, rent-free, in one of his luxury row-houses.

Coach, sir, you know as well as I do that there's exactly two chances of that happening . . .

1)  Slim, who is on the west coast (probably hunting down TominTib) somwhere . . .

2)  None.

I'm putting a bit of cash on "None," even though the odds are about 1-5.
