Rue...You mean the usual intellectual dishonesty from the board's own uptight self-rightous piece of shit, you? Every word of my post is the TRUTH, except maybe the caribou birth count....so technically that makes my entire post a swill of tripe. You are so hopelessly pathetic there aren't even words for it. Too bad you can't deal with the TRUTH.

Except Obama said that it's good to be bilingual; and your notion that he's going to tell everyone not to give presents is just plain STOOOPID (and not an actual fact, which I thought I'd point out if you can't tell the difference); and if we had ANWR oil today it would account for about 3% of total US consumption, and might possibly save $0.13 a gallon - whereas if the dollar hadn't been devalued by dubya's policies we'd be saving $1.50 per gallon.
So, yeah, there are more than a few places where the facts and your posts don't meet up.

He said a lot more than simply it's good to be bilingual. He made it sound like you can't succeed without it. Us simple folk who cling to our Bible & Guns during tough times often can't wade through the layers of elitist non-sense as easily as you obtuse pinheads can. Real sorry about that. And tell me, what kind of parents, really, what kind of parent don't give their little children presents? Hmmmm? Real demented ones, that's who. I guess they're bringing these kids up to hate everything just like they were educated to hate everything, & gravitate towards the Farrakhans & Wrights of the world. And ANWR would have been producing 2-3 million barrels a day now for us. That would translate into a huge savings, and free us considerably from foreign oil. Your numbers are absurd, and likely taken from the Daily KOS, which is really where your posts belong. Conversation over.

By 2050, Hispanics will make up around 30% of the US population ( http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/7559996.stm), so I don't see how it wouldn't be beneficial if people were also able to speak some Spanish, seeing as almost a third of the population will probably be native Spanish speakers. The "This is 'Merikuh, and in 'Merikuh we speak 'Merikan" attitude won't help you for much longer.

You know I frequently check my tire pressure, not for gas mileage but for safety. I checked it Sunday, but still had to pay $ 3.88 for gas on Monday.

...And McLame is still trying to figure out why the Soviet Union would attack itself!

If only Bill Clinton hadn't vetoed the ANWR drilling law that Congress passed 10 years ago; we'd have all the sweet black gold we need now.
Actually, you're full of shit on two points in just that one sentence.
1) Clinton didn't veto "the ANWR drilling law" - he vetoed a BILL - it's not a law until the President signs it into law, or until Congress overrides his veto within the same congressional session. They didn't, and he didn't - so it was never a "law".
2) IF we'd started drilling in ANWR ten years ago, it would not have brought us "all the sweet black gold we need now." The point is, nobody knows for sure IF there's oil under the ANWR, or how much there might be, but it's pretty safely assumed it's not "all we need".
When Dubya took office, oil was around $33 a barrel. It's now around $114 a barrel, down from a high a few weeks ago of $147 per barrel. This has less to do with supply than with Dubya's policies resulting in a rampant devaluation of the dollar.

Interesting that you feel no qualms about mocking and insulting someone you know pretty much nothing about. I've noticed that this is pretty much standard for the left/liberals on this forum. There's you, and then there's the "other", who can be ignored or mistreated because if they're not you, they are expendable.

And by saying "this is pretty much standard for the left", aren't you both mocking and insulting people you pretty much know nothing about? Doesn't that lump all of "them" into that "other" category you find expendable?
