Perry killed an innocent man.
There is a special place in hell for people who wield power without mercy, for politicians who kill simply because they can.
Go to hell Rick. I hope your suffering is long and painful. You deserve it.
There are however no organized groups of liberals who define themselves by their overt, institutionalized racism - but there are many, many conservative organizations that do, maybe even most of them.
The are overtly hostile to workers. Isn't killing jobs, by definition, one of the primary functions of the US Chamber of Commerce?
The writing, acting and storyline were absolutely perfect.
Probably the best episode of any TV drama series I've ever seen.
NO TO HEALTHCARE!
NO TO PEACE!
NO TO PROSPERITY!
NO TO HUMANITY!
NO TO AMERICA!
YES, THIS IS THE YEAR OF NO!
World class even. But when I start to despair as to what we've become as a nation I try to remember that our system, however flawed, didn't allow Cheney to morph into Hitler or Stalin.
Not that this is saying much or is of any comfort to the families of the 800,000 Iraqis and 5,000 Americans he killed or course.
Elephantman goes from questioning the poll to confirming it in eight minutes.
I would say that's probably some kind of record for conservative dishonesty but the day is still young.
Probably 100% of non-Republicans believe it's the Republicans themselves who hate America.
Guess which number is larger.
Monckton is clearly a joke (working for the moron Thatcher is the 20th century equivalent of working for the moron George Bush, and he should probably leave that bit off his resume) but he is right for the wrong reasons.
One-world government is where we're heading - if we get lucky. If not, we'll just annihilate ourselves in a fit of nationalist zeal.
The neocon agenda is to maintain our artificial barriers against other human beings because they believe they can "win" some advantage for themselves in doing so. How many history lessons do we need in order to figure out why we can't all win?
Cooperate or die - the message is correct no matter who delivers it.
Well of course. That's something I wouldn't want to put on my resume either.
Um, has anyone alerted the authorities?
Because they probably need to intervene.
Wasn't he the scumbag Republican who has made millions and millions of dollars off of our broken healthcare system while allowing Americans to suffer and die?
Hard to be sure since that really doesn't narrow it down much.
I forwarded your letter onto the Chinese and Indian governments.
Their response was "we don't care".
Now what?
Perhaps they should install a swooning couch.
So this article was about your relationship with your boyfriend. Nice.
I don't care.
When you belong to a party whose views only appeals to degenerate racists you go with the superstars.
Oh, you meant to asky "why aren't there aren't there any intelligent Republicans?" It's because crypto-fascism attracts stupid people, as leaders and followers.
Isn't fit to be shine Charles Darwin's shoes.
He truly is an American idiot.
Well that's the important thing, isn't it?
It must be quite gratifying to know that he allowed you to assist him in his personal asshat journey.
President Carter didn't say "if you disagree with this president, it's somehow fundamentally racist in nature"
He said:
"When a radical fringe element of demonstrators and others begin to attack the president of the United States as an animal or as a reincarnation of Adolf Hitler or when they wave signs in the air that said we should have buried Obama with Kennedy, those kinds of things are beyond the bounds"
"I think people who are guilty of that kind of personal attack against Obama have been influenced to a major degree by a belief that he should not be president because he happens to be African American."
"It's a racist attitude, and my hope is and my expectation is that in the future both Democratic leaders and Republican leaders will take the initiative in condemning that kind of unprecedented attack on the president of the United States"
So, Rep. Roy Blunt is a goddamn liar.
"This is an ordinary, religious, conservative, Christian girl with traditional values."
Which includes...topless photography. Seriously, is that what you are suggesting here?
See, we don't like fascists.
If your ideology embraces them and laments their passing, well that's really your problem and not ours.
If my daughter were to pose topless and then hold herself up as an example of moral rectitude I'd tell her to fix herself first before, you know, judging others - but then I'm an atheist and I have a standard of honesty I expect of my children.
Seriously, are all right-wing Christians in America liars and hypocrites? Because it sure seems that way from the outside looking in.
If he's too stupid to figure out how to sell burgers maybe he shouldn't be in the burger selling business.
What a buffoon.
I guess I was the only one who saw this whole 9/12 Glen Beck pro-racism march.
Funny, it was on all the news.
The rules are clear:

He is a disgrace to our country.
We should allow the Republicans to lie about everything, no matter how blatantly, and then address the lie like it has merit.
After all, it's even remotely like that "Iraq was responsible for 9/11" lie that Bush used to kill 800,000 people.
Because really, why would he lie?
Certainly some small number of stupid racists will donate to Ol' Joe so can keep yelling at our black president, but I think the outrage and disgust actual human beings feel over this affront to American dignity will bring a mountain of cash for any non-racist that will attempt to unseat him.
But don't believe me - check his website http://www.joewilson.house.gov/ I'm sure he isn't being swamped with congratulations on being a bigot.
