  1. wow for a Republican you're not too bright, and not very funny either...my guess is you're one o' those 'low taxes' Repigs, not one o' those foaming at the mouth, racist, xenophobic, misogynistic, religious fundamentalist, mentally retarded, southern Baptist morons, amirite? And yet you STILL spew forth the non-sense and non-intellectual gobbledy-gook bullshit propaganda sold to you by the corporate whores at Faux Noise, WTF? My guess is you're an angry, fat, old white guy who wants gummint ouuta yer bidness (but NOT outta OTHER people's bedrooms!) Folks like you are held captive by the United Corporations of 'Merka who laugh all the way to the bank as you vote for them while buying their carefully crafted propaganda...good luck with the stupid, it MUST hurt! :)

    oh wait, you're a Republican, duh!)
