  1. Yes, the senile Maverick (redacted since then) and Blamey Whinehouse were obviously the better choice

  3. I changed the comment due to fact that Obama is not Renegen's President according to his profile. If BO is not an ideologue, then what is he?

  4. He is more of a thinker and less of an "ideologue" than any number of prominent Republicans. Ideology requires little in the way of independent thought. That's why the Republican base all have the same prefabricated talking points.

    Given the choice, Yes. But two wrongs don't make a right.

    But I did not vote for either 0bama or Mccain.

    It sent a message to China, Russia and countless other countries that were considering a move towards communism, that the US would challenge their advance.

    Totalitarian regimes are the scourge of the earth and need to be defeated.

    The Vietnam War helped defeat the threat of communism that we faced in the 50's-80's.

    Now unfortunately the threat is right here in our own country, as the Democratic party has embraced big government as the answer to everything. This is not what the founding fathers had in mind, and what they feared the most. Limiting government control is what has made our country so prosperous and free.

  8. Got you on IGNORE, Renegen... but I'm going to post this anyway... as it should really CHEESE YOU OFF...

    140 IQ, wow! Would you mind also telling us what the size of your dick is, you know, since you like to brag so much?

    And about being a scientist, aren't most scientists "leftists", how do you get along with your colleagues? And where's all that money you paid in taxes from? Something really doesn't add up, are you sure you're not making all of this up?

    And for being a scientist who probably had a huge part of your education subsidized by the government, who had the privilege of living in the most advanced country in the world (there aren't many scientists in Africa), you sure are selfish and short-sighted. Do you possibly think your *success* is entirely due to you? Don't you owe a tiny little bit to the society that gave you the opportunities and freedom of speech to bitch about taxes so much?

    Americans are over-taxed, but that's because of bad government, which is ironically due to the ignorance of most Americans. Do you honestly think your complaining on the internet will convince the politicians to get rid of the gravy train? No, the only taxes cut will be to their friends and only "entitlement programs" cuts will be essential services.

    You might want to see what good government looks like in most other advanced countries, and how their citizen aren't stuck up in useless ideologies.

    1. "Where did the money I paid in taxes come from?"... Made it from TRADING THE MARKETS... (bet this one really stings, doesn't it?)

    2. My education was NOT subsidized.... I worked my way through college and never had a student loan.... never got any money from parents or relatives. (bet this hurts, too..)

    3. You're blind not to see that "opportunities" are being eroded right under your very nose.

    I'm all for America... land of opportunity... not a Socialist Obama-nation, as you appear to be.

  9. Unless you make 250k a year, i would deeply like to know how you're lifestyle has changed right now with Obama taking office. Do not bring up taxes or legislation that MIGHT happen. No IFs just plain vanilla, crystal clear, how has you're standard of living changed since Obama took office? With current tax laws, how dramatically has Obama destroyed your wealth and your way of living?

  10. Not the staunch ideologues. They live behind the Irony Curtain.
