I knew it...

Posted By Mike Strieber

I always thought liberals seemed overly bitter and generally unhappy. This research seems to back up my suspicions. Maybe it explains why you don't see as many old Democrats. You guys need to reevaluate your political ideology before it's too late. wink

Get the prozac out fellas...

For all you guys whose lives are still fueled by Bush/Cheney rage, Dick's got a bone to throw ya...a speech on national security...on the same day Obama is doing the same. Oh, the audacity (of hope) of Shotgun Dick. So you guys will get the best of both worlds....watching Cheney to get that blood-boiling, steam-blowing, heart-racing, red-face, head-exploding rage followed by that goosey, heart-throbbing, infatuating, Alice in Wonderland, bird-singing, halo-crowned, love-fest feeling. Should be quite an emotional day for you guys. Have fun. grin

Obama and the little people...

"Sobbing Kindergarteners Snubbed for Steelers?"

Nothing like a bus load of kids crying at the gates of the White House after being refused entry because they were 10 minutes late for their scheduled tour...oh, while Obama is hobnob'n with the elite.

This won't go down as one of his administrations finer moments.

What happened to the pirates?

Posted By Mike Strieber

Pirate talk was the rage for a couple weeks. I haven't heard anything about them in a while. I guess a couple of head shots has a tendency to dampen ones pillaging spirit.

While the US was unfortunate enough to have its election before the libs spent trillions, the EU has learned from watching us that the socialist Obama style of governance is stupid and have voted overwhelmingly for conservative candidates. It would be great to have a do over and see today whether the public would actually vote for the first black President and all of his stupid Dem friends in congress. But alas we are stuck with this crew of idiots for some time to come.

This link describes what happened in the EU:

This one shows that the idiot liberal policies here simply are not working, in fact making things worse (as predicted and expected by anyone with even half of a brain):

This link shows how the socialist intends to steal more money from those who are successful to pay for his liberal schemes:

And let's not even start on Obama's plans for inflicting maximum damage to the US with his environmental schemes.

Rumors of the conservative movement's death have been greatly exaggerated. smile

Democrats are crooks...

All Democrats are crooks, thieves, liars, cheats, horse thieving-bushwhackers, racists, and womanizers. Here's one example so it proves my point. Just how corrupt can a political party get? Oh, by the way, I'm adopting the standard placed on the Republican Party in this forum and it feels good, thanks for opening my eyes fellas. It's refreshing to be able to prove a point with a sample size of one and paint with such a broad brush. I feel liberated and satisfied having proven my point without expending an ounce of energy. Now I can return to my nap.

Today at the gun shop...

Posted By Mike Strieber

...this guy came in trash talking Obama. You could tell by the buldge in his shirt he was packing a donut. I hear he's an ex-cop, which explains the donut. I was a bit scared and uncomfortable so got his plate number. So I decided to go down the street to the donut shop and report him to the cops in the event Obama comes to Nevada. Of course Obama knows better than to come to Las Vegas again so I believe the risk is low. BTW, I didn't know they made donuts that big, I was horrified. And you could see the white powdery donut residue around his mouth, a clear indication the donut had been used by him recently. I learned that on CSI. The incident has made me do a complete turn-around on donut control. I'm all for it now. As this guy walked out he was mumbling something; but what I think I heard was...."you can have my donut when you pry it from my cold fingers"...something like that. Oh, and you should have seen the donut rack in the back of his pick-up truck, my God, just how many donuts does one guy need? The whole incident scarred me for life.
