  2. Well stated as is this:
    We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. — That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, — That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.

    It's painfully obvious we are at the "long train of abuses and usurpations" stage. And we might ponder these great ideals are stated in ONE paragraph, not 2000 pages.

  3. In other words, you'd find it completely irrelevant to the point of this thread should a right wing assassin make an attempt at Obama? Yeah, right. Your nipples would be so erect with excitement to post "I told ya so!" on this thread that you'd run the stock price of Band Aid through the roof.

    You see no relevance because the inconvenient truth is that all the presidential assassins in our nations history have been products of liberalism. We'll let Hinckley slide since he simply wanted to impress Jodi Foster. Wait, is she a liberal, yes. Scratch that!

    The fact is, history has proven that Hannity, Rush, Beck, are all at greater risk than Obama, especially when considering his base of political hacks is all the groups that political assassins typically hail from. And what typically precedes assassinations? Hateful rhetoric.

    And we all know damn well that THAT is the point you'd like to get at with this pussy poll.

  4. The only people who should be embarrassed by these poll results are the people who are too stupid to be embarrassed by these poll results. I suppose I could try to explain it further, but you wouldn't understand. And neither would your friends.

  5. Idiot left wingers actually make jokes about the rape of Sarah Palin's 14 year old daughter and they actually have the nerve to call someone else hateful.

  8. Lol. It helps to throw in an insult every page or so to keep the thread going.

  9. Such complete and utter bullshit. One guy, Letterman, makes a joke about Palin's older daughter and you compare that isolated gaffe to the widespread and ongoing HATRED of the PRESIDENT among Right Wing crazies, of whom there are very many. Are you really an idiot, or do you just play one on the Internet?
