    I have yet to see any reports of people wearing swastikas or showing up 'well dressed' to the forums where the politicians are getting hammered for their presentations of the regime's HCR!

    And what is it? Health care reform, insurance reform or ??? It changes as the problems mount for the prez!?!

    Obviously your senators are more well mannered and more in tune with the masses, THAT is why we have never heard of them and would not know them if we saw them on TV.

    Quit promoting their invisibility.

    You must understand Liz...some people in California think that it...and they...are the center of the universe and of far more interest and importance than anywhere else! It is one of the things that makes living here so...interesting....

    What on earth is going on with people these days?

    A Democratic Congressman from Maryland, Frank Kratovil, was hung in effigy last month - all because of health care.

    At first I thought Lugar was the dude that invented the pistol.

    He's just another Dick, Like me!

    500 million for planes?

    Yep, they take the food out of the mouths of the people working on the f-22s, but get themselves a nice ride?


    Nutsy Pelosi doesn't need the plane....she already has government subsidised transit.

    I think it is a shame that people have to resort to extreme stuff like this to get the arrogant jerks to listen. But, alas, they still won't.

    But they WILL approve another $500 million for fancy airplanes for themselves.

    The people are angry and justly so. I don't know about you, but I don't want the feds to have a "debit" feed into my bank account... So they can take taxes that way. Its in the "health care" bill. They say that they don't want to destroy private insurance.... Then why deny me the ability to renew my private insurance when it expires? Its in the bill....

    The people are angry because this is NOT about health care. Its about what most politicians want. Power. Ask yourself... Ask yourself why is this such a freaking emergency NOW? POTUS took 6 months to figure out what dog they wanted... But they want to shove a 2 trillion dollar bill up our rears, like that? The people are angry because they do not listen to us. We are sick of being talked down to.

    Also, never forget that the primary purpose of the 1st Amendment is to protect "offensive" political speech.


    The last line of the Declaration of Independance....

    "And for the support of this Declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection of Divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other our Lives, our Fortunes, and our sacred Honor."


    Do you feel that any Congress or President in the past 20 years has been truly worthy to be cast in the same mold as the men who wrote this? Rather than pledging THEIR lives, THEIR fourtunes and THEIR <snicker> sacred Honor... They do just the opposite.


    The people are angry and rightly so. If they do not start listening to us, I fear for what might happen.

    I wouldn't mind being "hung" in effigy. It only makes the lore that much more interesting?

    I just received this in an email, and it seems to fit right in with the current conversation.

    A busload of politicians were driving down a country road when all of a sudden, the bus ran off the road and crashed into a tree in an old farmer's field.

    The old farmer, after seeing what had happened, went over to investigate.

    He then proceeded to dig a hole to bury the politicians.

    A few days later the local sheriff came out, saw the crashed bus, and asked the old farmer where all the politicians had gone.

    The old farmer said he had buried them.

    The sheriff asked the old farmer, 'Were they all dead?'

    The old farmer replied, 'Well, some of them said they weren't, but you know how them bastards lie.'

    I am seriously stupid about politics, at first I thought it was some kind of mental block, now I know it's just plain stupidity-with a little depravity and a dose of anger tossed in to really unbalance me.

    Thank god I live in Cah Lee Fuh Nee Ah, where most of us are Dangerously Stupid, so I don't seem so out of place.

    I dont pay too much attention to the people running other states, I have to try and vote out the idiots running mine. Hence the whining!

    It started out a mumbling, then humming, now whining. You should see me when i toss a snit. It's not funny, really!

    Better yet... If he plan is so great, why is Congress exempt from it?


    "The house of representatives ... can make no law which will not have its full operation on themselves and their friends, as well as the great mass of society. This has always been deemed one of the strongest bonds by which human policy can connect the rulers and the people together. It creates between them that communion of interest, and sympathy of sentiments, of which few governments have furnished examples; but without which every government degenerates into tyranny."

    Welcome back, my friends, to the show that never ends!
    We're so glad you could attend, Come inside, come inside!


    It's actually quite boring.

    My snits consist of thinking up funny names for elected officials and bathing in water heated by the sun.

    We are the center of the universe.

    Why else would we have asteroids passing thru, banging into stuff?

    "stupid" (by meriam webster) slow of mind : obtuse b : given to unintelligent decisions or acts : acting in an unintelligent or careless manner c : lacking intelligence or reason : brutish

    maybe "ignorant" fits better?

    These are not the droids you were looking for
