Original article: "Your father was a monster"

Yeah, sure, teach them about the Holocaust

and in the same class include Abu Ghraib, the invasion of Lebanon, Gitmo, TIbet, Gaza, Reagan's Central American death squads, the genocide against native americans by the USA, slavery, Pol Pot, the ORIGINAL HOLOCAUST (Catholics killing one third of southern France and literally burning the heretics while they prayed and sang hymns), the Armenian Genocide, the Ukraine starvation by Stalin, Vlad the Impaler, US firebombing and incineration of entire cities in WW II, the atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, the Rape of Nanking, the Vietnam War (oh yeah ,the girl on fire with Napalm and My Lai), Numbers Chapter 31, Darfur, South Africa's Apartheid,, East Timor, and the Holy Inquisition.

What do you think teaching kids about all that is going to do for them?

I bet the people that make horror movies for teenagers are going to have to raise the bar on torture and horror to compete.

Can you think of anyone who might be offended by the curriculum?

HMMMM.

Let's drop Gaza and Lebanon.

Happy now?

Better leave out Numbers 31. It makes Moses look bad.

Everybody happy now?

No?

OK, Lets just talk about the Nazis and the Holocaust and lets keep it simple and just talk about the Jewish victims. Nobody wants to her about Gypsies, Homosexuals, mental defectives (think of the special ed ids), communists (hey, they are the bad guys, unless its China), the old and infirm and all the rest would just cloud the issue and give them too much information.

OK?

Good.

At least all the kids who are not Jewish will KNOW that THEY don't have to worry about a thing. Monsters doing evil things to people is NOT THEIR PROBLEM.

You really want to do that?

Then all the Jewish kids can wonder why it's only them that monsters hate and kill. That should make them feel pretty special. Therapists could use the business.

Keep in mind I have just scratched the surface of the evil that humans are capable of and thankfully I only know a very little about it. Evil doesn't like to call attention to itself.

Seriously folks, before you watch the Ten Commandments this year, pick up a Bible and read Number Chapter 31. It takes less than ten minutes. Evil is a universal.

Sucks don't it?

Now go play a first person shooter video game.

My dear bhalsop,

You need to be more assertive.

You are also making people who take bribes look bad.

My dea l3fty2007,

Shame on you! DC is counting on the revenue from sucker, uh , citizens.

4 million people

20 dollar Obama t-shirt

10 dollars for two beverages

10 dollars for lunch

5 dollars worth of buttons

20 dollars for a program

5 dollars for a plastic poncho

20 dollars for dinner

20 dollars for alcoholic beverages

That is a minimum of 110 dollars from each visitor for a grand total of 440 million dollars poured into the DC economy.

Most people are going to spend a lot more especially if they are going to ball, party or nightclub.

Probably at least 200 million for hotel rooms and house or room rentals.

Add in limo rentals cabs and robberies and that is probably another million.

DC is probably going to be looking for about a half a billion dollars in revenue from this.

AND YOU CALL DC A SHITHOLE???

Have you seen the toilets on July 4?

You can't even find the hole.

If you want to see something real cool, wait until after dark and watch the rats come out to feast on the leftovers. Don't worry, they won't bite you. It is an awesome sight. Discovery Channel should do a show on just that.

"The Shoe Thrown Around the World"

Wherever this asshat traitor and war criminal goes, shoes should be hurled at him.

Eventually it will become tradition that one must remove one's shoes in the presence of the President.

Sympathy? The world only regrets that he wasn't hit square in the puss.

Original article: WTF of the day

I am SHOCKED and OUTRAGED!!!

I am glad that women and feminists would never be so low, base and creepy as to use a mechanical device to replace a nan for sex.

Oh, wait a minute . . .

The Globe - CIA owned Tabloid has it on the cover this week!

Ever wonder why people hate Hillary Clinton so much? Thank the AMERICAN MEDIA GROUP'S supermarket tabloids, planting memes and propaganda in everyone who goes though a supermarket checkout line. (Not available at Whole Foods and Trader Joe's).

GET OVER IT! If the CIA is running with the Obama Citizenship story - it must be for a reason.

Cellulite, fat Britney, stars without make-up and Obama's Birth Certificate!

When are you Salon writers going to wise up and become journalists?

THIS STORY GOT LEGS!

RUN FORREST, RUN!

What a sack of morons.

Just show the damn Birth Certificate from, 1961 or AMEND the GODDAMN CONSTITUTION!

You can call us crazy if we want to see that which doesn't exist, which means we are right.

Does it exist? Can he show it? Do we have to rely on the GLOBE to cover this???

What a sack of morons.

My dear LondonLad,

These Obama trolls are too stupid to understand that. They are logically challenged. So is the whole damned country.

They wish I would take the medications that they are on which impair their cognitive abilities. They even mention their favorite brand.

Why not?

She has the same qualifications as Clinton and Palin, a famous name and good looks.

Pus she was born in the USA.

My dear Obama Trolls,

If Obama cannot show the 1961 document, just AMEND the CONSTITUTION.

I got no problem with that, BABY!

Now put up, shut up, or AMEND up.

The prophecy of "Demolition Man" must be fulfilled. As it was filmed, so shall it be done.

What a sack of flaming morons!
