Irresponsible and Unbalanced

Beyond the inherent offensiveness of deriding a candidate's wife in such a manner. The mere fact that a major news organization so openly mocks Mrs. Obama and believes that such nonsense is worth airing clearly and unequivocally demonstrates that the Fox News Channel is not a serious, competent news channel and doesn't deserve to be regarded as such. Everyone who works there is not a real journalist and and is not professional.

The New Dark Ages

These religious fundamentalists are a clear and present danger to our country. If they had their way, everyone would be forced to obey their will and follow their dogma. There wouldn't be any abortions performed and no contraceptives would be legal. Businesses like this need to be boycotted and either convinced to operate responsibly, or they need to be put out of business.

He Doesn't Deserve Any Charity or Respect

Whenever a public figure passes away, part of noting their death is the process of examining the result of the actions that they took while they were alive and the legacy that they are leaving behind. Jesse Helms was an undisputed bigot who spread hatred every chance that he got and seriously lowered the level of American political discourse his entire life. For anyone who believes that this is a time to refrain from speaking ill of him out of respect for the occasion of his death, that is something that he forfeited by the constant evil that he performed. Someone as ill-tempered and plainly emotionally disturbed as he was should never have been allowed to hold public office. He belonged in a padded cell. I hope that they bury him upside down.

As A Man

I must say that I would never put on any underwear that had a picture of a razorblade in it. I would be terrified to see that every time I put them on!

How Ironic!

Considering that everyone who works for Fox News is a jerkoff!

Scumballs

Everytime that there is a news story about the Texas Republican Party, it is about them sinking lower and lower into villainy. If every one in Texas still wears ten-gallon hats, these are obviously the people wearing the black ones!

This Country Would Be So Much Better

If these religious fundamentalists would stop badgering everyone else to practice abstinence, and did so themselves. This guy reminds of the dopey husband who winds up getting Lolita knocked up, and then tells Humbert Humbert that Alaska is a great place to raise children, because there's so much room for them to run around in!

Pretty Interesting

It does seem that they did get much better at locating the leaders of Al Qaeda in Iraq. I was always under the impression that our organizing and paying the Sunni militias was the biggest factor in reducing violence. I think that we can also thank Al Qaeda in Iraq for turning the Sunnis over to our side and making this switch possible in the first place. It was pretty obvious that merely returning the level of troops there closer to what the original amounts after the initial invasion were didn't account for the stabilization of Iraq.

I Wonder ...

Considering what Karl Rove said about Barack Obama being one of the ones at "The Club" who was too cool to talk to his fatass -- which clubs have Karl Rove as a member? I wonder how many of them excluded blacks in the past? I would so love to hear about one of these coming to light!

If You Read the Sign Literally

The claimant states that he/she kissed a girl, went to hell, and then came back and put up the sign. That means that if you do this, you get to come back and kiss her some more! Sign me up!

Nothing Fails Like Prayer

I always laugh uproariously at religious people who prattle about "Prophecy" and try to prove that their fantasies have any predictive capabilities. It's all bunk, and not one single "Prophecy" has ever come true.

Give Em Hell Mr. Eisenberg!

There are so many things that have gone wrong over the last 8 years, and it's so easy to be completely cynical over the direction that our government is taking. It's good to see someone fighting The Good Fight and trying to keep America free. I really hope that you win. Good Luck!

Original article: Obama's Chicago machine

According To McCain's "Logic"

Barack Obama represents the state of Illinois, and anything bad that happens there must be associated with Barack and be his fault. By using that same reasoning against McCain, it is therefore John's fault that the Phoenix Cardinals suck.

"The Shock Docrine"

This certainly seems to be another chance for the upper class to take a terrible situation (of their own making) and use it to sneak through a massive redistribution of wealth from the lower and middle classes to themselves. We've seen this happen time and time again all over the world. Milton Friedman is looking up from Hell and smiling.

Well At Least

Barack doesn't have a teen daughter who got knocked up by a redneck loser!

Seriously, this Corsi guy is a complete sob, and this clearly demonstrates how unprofessional and dogmatic conservative "journalists" are. Fair and Balanced my ass!

Which is More Surprising?

The fact that Jackie Mason is still alive and that anyone would know who he is? Or that anyone in the world thinks that he is funny?

Maybe ...

Saudi women should be forced to wear bags over their heads with eyeholes so they can still see where they're going? Or maybe Saudi Arabia needs to free itself from backwards religious fundamentalists that only exist to oppress other people!
