Yea, I agree. It could be a slippery slope.

I would really like to see the introduction of a strong minority party in both houses that would force more compromise. Any way you look at it the whole system of fucked up. I am beginning to hate them all.

Me too, Merc. (wow, I agree with you on something!

)

I'd like the election process cleaned up and money, lobbyists, PAC's, super-PAC's, and all the buying and selling of politicians eliminated. Then, we might could get something useful done.

Yeah yeah, I know. Never gonna happen.

NOW you're beginning to get it, Merc. Glad to see you're coming around!

Did anyone else notice the news blackout concerning Ron Paul?
See Stewart bit.

classicman · 08-14-2011, 08:01 PM

Aside from that, I'd also like to see the tea party and the rest of the extremists sent packing as well

SamIam · 08-14-2011, 11:24 PM

I expect the Tea Party to start goose marching in the streets any time now.

xoxoxoBruce · 08-15-2011, 02:51 AM

Here then come.

Cellar bothers and sisters, I have reviewed this thread. It is time to speak.

You pretty much universally agree, Washington (except Glatt) is a mess - beyond redemption.

You know what must be done.

You are equipped, you are able. Some of you are already unemployed, so you'll have time.

Rise up! Rise up, American Dwellars! Seize back your country.

All tongue in cheek, of course, but half-seriously, I think the entire US executive could be replaced by US dwellars and congress replaced by votes from lurkers, and the US would be better off for it.

Oh and Bruce, those are the most plausible looking candidates I've seen yet.

Griff · 08-15-2011, 03:51 PM

The Republicans are screaming about "taking back our country" just like the Democrats did last Presidential cycle. That phrase creeps me out.

Could you hit up Alec Baldwin for that unused plane ticket? It's not like he's going anywhere.

A Wishful Ad-Hominem Ad

And Gallup is saying, essentially, that merely eleven in a hundred Americans is willing to say "Obama In 2012." There's always some poor bastard that doesn't get the word, and a couple of them post here.

Stormieweather · 08-19-2011, 09:11 AM

If there were any intelligent, non-freak candidates, other than Obama, to vote for, I would definately consider it. As it stands, I am NOT willing to accept what these morons are selling just to see Obama out of office. I mean really...have you all looked at the candidates in depth?

. It's enough to make me want to move out of the country.

And for the record, my issue with Obama is that he is too neutral and not tough enough. I want someone in there who will FIGHT for the things I believe in, not cave at the slightest opposition.

They're all liars, hypocrites, and greedy mofo's, not to mention bought and paid for. Not a one of them has the best interests of the majority of the American public at heart. And they're not listening to us so they never will be a true representative of the people. They represent the dollar and corporate power, not me.

Thanks.

A friend of mine texted me today: "Also I'm pretty sure Rick Perry dyed his hair. Who does that slick faggot think he's fooling?" lol

Straight from the horse's mouth, although I don't know of this counts because the guy that texted this is originally from Oklahoma.

morethanpretty · 08-16-2011, 12:07 AM

An interesting article. It lays out the contrasts between Perry and Obama pretty thoroughly and summarizes the the condition of Texas' health care, education, budget, ect.

Quote:

Despite its strong economy, Texas ranks low on many social markers. It has the fourth- highest poverty rate, the seventh-highest teenage birth rate, and the lowest rate of people over 25 with a high school degree.

*Sigh*
Teabag scum IMHO. If making the conditions for corporations favorable, allowed for favorable conditions for society, why would Texas have such a clear issue with poverty, education and lack of health care?
