Camille, did you just drop in from Pluto?

You are the one who's been prattling about Limbaugh's 'talent' all these years. Hey ... I just heard something scary, too: Saddam Hussein might attack Kuwait!

Glenn, will you EVER stop bashing Obama?

You do realize the GOP almost destroyed the country, right? And they are still trying to finish the job. But every goddamn day, it's another vicious snark-fest on Obama. Are you Nader with a facelift? Give it a fucking rest once in a while.

Corporations run the world ...

Corporations will kill it. It will be 20 years if ever before any link is 'proven' after the money buys off the Republican party and half the Democrats. And not only on this particular issue.

Sunday, May 17, 2009 09:37 PM

Walken, you prove again why the GOP is dying

And not a day too soon. If you believe your own tripe, you are a fool. If you don't, you are a lying pig. The very first letter writer hit it on the heads, as did so many others.

@readerreader

Screw the firefighter -- so he "spent more than a $1,000 on study aids, overcame dyslexia, studied intently ... and gets rejected in a six sentence opinion." What did you expect Judge Sotomayor to do? Show "empathy" to the guy? Or apply the law as she saw it? Sucks being him.

Do conservatives EVER examine their own absurdity?

And as far as your state voting analysis goes, Obama will crush whatever ridiculous sacrificial lamb the GOP coughs up in 2012 by anywhere from 10 to 20 points.

Looks like Judge is a douche

Too bad. The thing is, all the bad stuff liberals believe about wingers is true. 90 percent of the stuff wingers believe about liberals is bullshit. Judge is a just a bit behind the curve here. Hey Mike -- 1994 called.

Wednesday, May 27, 2009 04:01 PM

@Sinnard: 'mocking their lifestyle'?

The 'lifestyle' Judge shows here exists only on the barren plains of some wingnut's brain creases. I say again: conservatives have swallowed the Big Cartoon about liberals whole. But liberals such as myself need only check the video of a Palin rally to see that our worst imaginings of the wingnut psyche are all too real.

Friday, May 29, 2009 09:31 AM

Hersh?

Please. He's a political Weekly World News. And the pix Obama doesn't want released are not these.

Friday, May 29, 2009 09:45 AM

@something stinks

Read 'Nixonland' and tell us again about his 'liberalism' and how he 'ended' the Vietnam war. My God are you ignorant. The man's venality and pure evil surpassed Cheney.

@hploughjogger

"Irrelephantman"! Thank you for that! Perfect and right on the money. A young man who thinks the world started with Reagan (whom today's GOP would banish) and has yet to develop a soul, as all wingnuts fail to do. Fulminating and bloviating in a country that laughs at him ... he is ... IRRELEPHANTMAN!!!

Sunday, May 31, 2009 08:01 PM

you'd kick him out today

He wasn't hateful enough for the RNC (Rush, Newt and Dick). Well, he did kick off his 1980 cmapaign in Philadelphia, Miss. 'Coincidence' I believe you people called it. Nothing about pandering to vicious racists and backlashers. So that was pretty hateful. I realize you'll never be over 'Ronnie' or 'The Gipper' or whatever the old man is being remembered by these days. You have no one else. And 'won the Cold War.' Yes. The USSR's internal collapse had nothing to do with it. They were a'scared of us! Arms for hostages and the rule of law? Pffft. BLOWJOBS! That was the true crisis! Walken, you are like all wingnuts: if you truly believe what you say you do, you are a fool, given the decades of evidence that conservatism is useless nonsense. If you don't, you are a lying charlatan.

Sunday, May 31, 2009 10:27 PM

not a single "pro-lifer" here ...

Has the first clue about what Tiller did. "Baby killer." Read the cases, idiots. I know wingnuts break out in hives when in contact with facts, but take the risk.

IRRELEPHANTMAN!!!

What's that squeak? It's IRRELEPHANTMAN!!!

AGAIN: IRRELEPHANTMAN!

Hey Dexter: really? on TV?

Gee, I missed that. If you mean you heard some guy in a bar call Hillary that, I'm sure you did. I guess that's the same as a remark from a former Speaker of the House. Joan, I can only wonder: is God enough of a sport to give us Newt! as the GOP standard-bearer in 2012? Can you imagine that hateful mug taking on Barack Obama in an improved economy? Barry Goldwater would rise up just to laugh at Newt's losing margin.

Friday, June 5, 2009 10:21 AM

shorter Irrelephantman:

Obama = Bush. Except for the war crimes. You're an idiot, son. And it appears incurable.

Monday, June 8, 2009 11:41 AM

So when we torture the guy?

Hey Irrelephantman -- you out there? Torture gets info from terrorists; let's have at this guy, right? Or isn't he a terrorist because you don't like his victim?

Monday, June 8, 2009 11:43 AM

@something stinks

I have to ask, and I'm sure I'm not alone in doing so: what the fuck are you talking about, ever? Is Obama a socialist, fascist, terrorist, communist, all four combined ... just what? WTF is your point? Do you ever have one?

Monday, June 8, 2009 05:51 PM

'I have the description of Katie framed and hanging on my wall'

Really, 'reallynow'? I have the 2008 electoral map on mine. I win.

Original article: California nightmare

Prop 13. Republicans. Gutless Democrats.

Idiot voters who think the country can run on wishes, not taxes. Republicans.

Original article: California nightmare

@agore: yeah, right

That's why low-tax states like Mississippi, Alabama, South Carolina are such economic powerhouses, not jerkwaters. Oh, wait. This tax-cutting race-to-the-bottom bullshit conservatives love so much leaves out education and infrastructure, but hey, what business wants those?

Original article: Obama's hit -- and big miss

"monstrous stimulus package'

Sure thing, Camille. If anything it was too small. But you teabaggers all hate it. No real reason; it makes no sense to NOT spend government money in a recession when no one else is. But why am I wasting keystrokes here? You and Limbaugh and your other soul-mates might as well be fulminating from Pluto.

And Joan: we beg you. BEG you. Enough.

Tuesday, June 9, 2009 06:58 PM
Original article: Obama's hit -- and big miss

@serafin: yeah, tax cuts!

"Get some good solid tax cuts going and the economy might just rebound." Because the $1.3 trillion Bush threw at the top 3 percent sure did the trick! Are you wingnuts ALL reality-challenged? Do you realize that Obama's "socialistic" top tax rate is 39 percent -- an increase of THREE CENTS ON THE DOLLAR for everything above a quarter of a freaking million -- while Reagan's was 50 percent? And yet Reagan was a god to you people, and to hear you tell it, the economy was stellar. With a 50 percent top rate. Can ANYTHING penetrate the force field of ignorance conservatives generate?
