Y'know, I think we're looking at the latest outbreak of Palin Syndrome (Palin-drome?). Things look pretty dire for about two weeks generally, but even untreated the fever seems to burn itself out in most patients before any lasting harm is done--though many patients seem to suffer from a lingering form of mild amnesia.

Patient zero almost always dies though, the disease is quite incurable for the carrier, it seems. Thing is, an outbreak of Palin Syndrome seems only to attack when patient zero is nearly terminal already. The last definitive case in this country was John McCain's Presidential Campaign and it didn't last long once P.S. entered its system. This time it's the tea party movement in critical condition.

It's a shame, because Palin Syndrome is entirely preventable with proper mental hygiene.

Hey, hey, hey, don't be mean. We don't have to be mean, because, remember, no matter where you go, there you are.

It's funny, HKC, because I've been thinking about the "Palin-drome" thing lately, too. A palindrome is a word or sentence that reads the same backwards or forwards ("racecar" is one; "Able was I, ere I saw Elba" is another). A Sarah-Palin-drome, however, is always more backwards than forward.

On this matter, make no mistake. I want you to go fuck yourself long and hard, as well as anyone who agrees with you. I got no use for you.

Mr. President, you're a god damn, mother fucking liar.
Fuck you, you cock sucking community activist piece of shit.
... go fuck yourself, Mr. President.

And eventually, people will have to stop blaming Obama and Islam for all our problems, too. Just sayin'. ;)

haha fair enough. I would argue that blaming Obama is at least more relevant (seeing as how he and his are in charge right now) than blaming bush, but the truth is Obama is also being blamed for things not his fault. I just wish I were allowed to criticize their policies without having to be labeled a 'racist.'

Yeah, and I wish I were allowed to criticize the invasion of Iraq 7 years ago without being labeled a "terrorist". Guess you can't always get what you want...

Heck, I can't even defend the rights of one religious group to do what dozens of other religious groups do every day in this country without being labeled one. Apparently most Americans believe in "equal rights" for all, but some are clearly more "equal" than others.

I see Christians as being noble in their desire to spread the greatness of their god(again as silly as that is).

You know I think all religions come from the same place, one I can sympathise with because I've been there: an honest desire to make sense of our existence, and find humanity's 'true' path. All religions have moral beauty in them, but all are also quite backward - because they're old, and are unwilling to accept moral greyness.

But when I hear a muslim talk about the beauty and benevolence in his religion I believe him - because I recognise the same attitude that I once had. And all religions have emphases like these in them somewhere.

I guess my point is that there's nobleness in Islam as well as any other faith. And you can't compare the noble side of christianity with the ugly extremist side of Islam.

It's not personal. It's just war.

And as much as some would like to believe otherwise, there are Christian monsters and murderers as well, even in this day and age.

Doesn't suck at all buddy. Actually, feels pretty good knowing that I'm already IN line with the vast majority of Americans on this, 68% I believe. Only 26% think like you do. Now that MUST suck for you. So sorry




River, act like a character from Deadwood and tell this smarmy cock-sucker how you really feel. Language was invented to convey meaning and feeling...stop being nice. Tact waters down truth and conviction. Wish you luck, however you used to be a lion and now seem like a lamb. I'm sure NIKI2 will thank you for your coooooooth.

Really. I have a challenge. Everyday I will post killings of people(now ..currently) in the name of Allah...you do the same about people killed in the name of Jesus(who happens to be a fictional character praised in the minds of idiots...as is Mohammad).....What say you Mister "so do Christians"...again saying Bush is a christian does not count unless you can find the pope or a high ranking catholic(bishop=immam) agreeing. Don't forget O'bama is a christian dumb ass.
