    so you can instill fear into people about the healthcare system to justify government management? so you can instill fear into people about our energy future to justify your policies? both of these are issues we shouldnt even really be having a dialogue about. if you need energy or healthcare, buy it from the private sector. if you cant afford it, then maybe you are the one with the problem.

    like i said, if you believe it, good for you. i like to believe things that are more journalistic in tone, that lack sensationalistic language and headlines.

    It's people like the kool aid drinkers that jerk off to Obama pictures and watch his speaches like a Porno that vote for the damn fools that make decisions for me and the future of my family. These damn fools that print money out of thin air and causes our dollar to drop in value. The same fools that want to raise the debt limit. The same fools that rant and rave about fox news because they spotlight such foolishness. Without fox to point out the decisions made by our government that effect each one of us we would never hear about anything other than democratic talking points and the goose stepping media that drool over Obama.

    right. both sides have the exact same criticism, the other side is influenced by information that they do not agree with. the question is how much we celebrate when we realize something really obvious.

    certainly opposition views are vital to a healthy democracy. i am not sure what the problem is. have we yet noted that the article was so awesome, it had to be 13 pages long?

    I guess it's impossible for us redneck conservatives to understand where the kool aid drinkers are coming from since we don't wear shoes or brush our flopin teeth.

    I have not a clue why they can't grasp the silliness of that article and why some choose not to read it.

    But apparently, that school of thought makes us uneducated hacks….

    Don't forget hacks with bad teeth and dirty feet because everyone knows conservatives don't wear shoes or own tooth brushes.

    You sound like a kook, when you say things like this.

    Get your metaphors right when you rant. "Goose-stepping" is a metaphor for fascist right-wing extremism. "Tree-huggers" is the left-wing extremist metaphor your are looking for.
