the mention of socialism does not reflect the cries of a desperate republican campaign. it is a means of pointing out how awful socialism is, and how equitable, fair, and desirable capitalism has always been and ever shall be.
Why not? One of the perks of making a lot of money is, you can afford to pay higher taxes. It's funny how rich people think it's only fair that they pay the same taxes as everyone else. Really? Just admit you're a greedy bastard and get on with life. God forbid, you might have to wait a couple months before you can refinance your third summer home in Maui! Damn these unbearable tax hikes!
If you don't like it, move to Mexico, where that six figure salary will get you a hell of a lot more than it does here. Otherwise, suck it up and accept your government-enforced generosity.
That's a generalized "you", not referring to anyone here in particular. I seriously doubt anyone that successful would spend their time on this site anyway.
Hey guys & girls...facts are facts!!
This has to make you think a little bit, if not then keep your blinders on!
George Bush has been in office for 7 1/2 years. The first six the economy was fine.
A little over one year ago:
1) Consumer confidence stood at a 2 1/2 year high;
2) Regular gasoline sold for $2.19 a gallon;
3) The unemployment rate was 4.5%.
4)The DOW JONES hit a record high--14,000 +
5) American's were buying new cars, taking cruises, vacations o'seas, living large!...
But American's wanted 'CHANGE'! So, in 2006 they voted in a Democratic Congress & yep--we got 'CHANGE' all right. In the PAST YEAR:
1) Consumer confidence has plummeted ;
2) Gasoline is now over $4 a gallon & climbing!;
3) Unemployment is up to 5% (a 10% increase);
4) Americans have seen their home equity drop by $12 TRILLION DOLLARS & prices still dropping;
5) 1% of American homes are in foreclosure.
6) As I write, THE DOW is probing another low~~11,100--
$2.5 TRILLION DOLLARS HAS EVAPORATED FROM THEIR
STOCKS, BONDS & MUTUAL FUNDS INVESTMENT
PORTFOLIOS!
YEP , IN 2006 AMERICA VOTED FOR CHANGE!...AND WE SURE GOT IT!!!....NOW OBAMA, the DEM'S CANDIDATE FOR PRESIDENT--AND THE POLLS SAY HE'S GONNA BE 'THE MAN'--CLAIMS HE'S GONNA REALLY GIVE US CHANGE!!....JUST HOW MUCH MORE 'CHANGE' DO YA THINK YOU CAN STAND???.....
Who wants to break it to him that since bush took office the country is also out $10 trillion, half a state and the WTC? And that caps isn't auto pilot for smart.
just fyi, every year bush has been in power the dollar has been falling more and more... i know because we get paid in usd... when i moved here the us dollar was very strong... around 1.50 to the canadian dollar every year since (those years bush has been in "power") the dollar has slowly become less and less... this year quite a few times the us dollar has actually been worth less then the canadian dollar. the "first 6 years" weren't fine... its been a steady slope leading up to the shit that has been happening in the last 1-2 years.. people just seem to ignore things until they can't be ignored any longer (which is what was happening)
the problem is the fact that when you keep losing (spending on military) and borrowing more and more money it might *SEEM* like a good idea.. until the point comes where you just can't even tread water (which is what is happening)
people "voting for change" doesn't matter, things have gotten fucked up and its not going to be an easy or quick fix...

Really? Is that how life works Gottlos? What did you have to say about rich people again so I can take what you say seriously? Oh yeah, "One of the perks of making a lot of money is, you can afford to pay higher taxes... Just admit you're a greedy bastard and get on with life." --- Yeah, you sound completely reasonable and show no sign of wealth envy at all. why dont you fuck off and stay worthless.
Huh... sounds pretty reasonable to me. And since you're the only person who apparently has such a problem with it, maybe you should stop and reconsider where you stand. Also, when did I deny having wealth envy? If I recall, you accused me of it, and then denied it yourself. Why don't YOU first learn to read, then fuck off, and stay stupid. Not that there's much you can do about the latter anyway.
I have a problem with people with wealth envy, spouting off retarded leftist rhetoric. I totally called you out on this. Hank was drunk and forgot the definition of envy. Then you proceeded to make it seem like I was the one who actually had the "envy." Sorry, but having a very realistic "goal" is not "covetous" at all you stupid fucking leftist tool. You libs are so fucking demented to think the world owes you a living and that you shouldnt have to work for shit. I stand by my current statement of fuck off and stay worthless and all the rest of liberal stereotypes that probably also apply to you.
So with that logic, I would only be going to culinary school because I envy Chefs? I would only be seeking the presidency of the United States because I envy power? I seek enlightenment of body and mind because I envy priests?
So I state that I seek financial stability and wealth because I envy those with money? LOL! Talk about casualties of education.
Your chefs example is right, except for the only part. The other two are wrong for reasons I won't explain, because you are not likely to understand them.
It's so easy to understand.
You want to be like rich people. You want what they have, wealth. You feel you would be happier if you were wealthy. You fit the below definition to a tee.

So you admit I am right, but wont go into the other examples because you dont have the time and claim I will not understand. Uh-huh. Pretty weak Hank. Sorry, but I think I win this one.
Absolutely. I'd love to see the video where they interview the fans at an inner-city Obama rally and see what sort of answers they get. But my bigger problem with this crowd is that most of them probably had decent educations. Grant it, most of them seem shitfaced as well.
Jamiee's right. You heard probably two or three of the people walking by and just quoting lines from the campaign commercials. And when asked more on the subject, they just walked away and didn't answer.
These fuckers don't even know what Socialism is, no less how to spell it.
1.) $700 Billion dollar bailout plan = Socialism
2.) Government buying out failing banks = Socialism
3. Government interfering with economics period. = Socialism.
If you're going to down Obama, at least do it right and with words you know how to spell.
Thanks for the list of failed social programs here in America! Thanks for helping make my point they need to be removed! Socialism does not work. Period.
America's failed social programs aren't evidence of the failure of socialism; it's evidence of the failure of socialist programs in a capitalist country.
Obama has the majority of people sold on pure face value.. I don't know very many people that could explain clearly, one of his proposed initiatives.. As a strong, educated supported, I can honestly say that I have no fucking clue. But the mans got my vote.
mine as well. it's astonishing that someone other than a billionaire would cheerlead for supply-side economics. well, unless you realize that someone was fucking retarded.
Americans don't know what socialism is, period. The UK, Canada, and just about any other country in the EU are far more liberal than USA. If Obama's socialist, those leaders are commies on crack.
I DECLARE A JIHAD ON THE ABOMINATION AND HERETIC THAT IS dIK! HIS SACRILEDGE MUST NOT GO UNPUNISHED! I IMPLORE ALL GOOD MUSLIMS TO WAGE HOLY WAR ON dIK, THE MOST UNHOLY OF INFIDELS!
WHAT!? that guy just said that there was no such thing as communism that the realities are socialism and fascism... it's the other way aroundsocialism is the ideal government that is intented to be set up and communism and facism are the realities. he's just saying that because that's what he hear's he's not actually thinking i don't think any of these people are the're sheep following eachother bleating because everyone else is. that is the perfect example of why i don't associate with the republican party even though i will vote for mccain. this isn't red vs blue here, it's think for yourself and choose according to the issues and the histories of the candidates people fucking piss me off sometimes...you know what fuck it, i'll vote for whoever is legalizing weed and putting harder restraints on alchohol
and since when is terrorist become a side, obama's not a terrorist these people are ignorant, i bet they expect if he's sworn in he'll start going alalalalalalalala and shooting into the air while muslims and terrorists swarm the area... thankyou bush, thank you
think about it. some fucking morons actually believe that obama is a terrorist. that means they believe that under the bush administration, a terrorist has been allowed not only to live in the US without being apprehended, but to become a senator and serious presidential contender.
then you have the christian right, who literally are terrorists, given that they employ extreme fear by conjuring up images of nuclear holocaust and other such bullshit under a potential obama administration. but that's ok.
You could then say anything you can label is a terrorist. Why not? And you know what?
You should try getting an avatar first before you do anything else. how long has it been you've had that pos avatar kojach?
I think he's smarter than me. Look how condescending he is! He knows we're not worth his time, but he atleast took the time to tell us that. I like Kojach.
I fucking hate conservatives.. How is it okay to call someone a socialist, just because they want to provide healthcare to everyone? I've never much been a fan of eugenics, but something must be done here.. Those dumb cunts knew better than to come to Denver.. We woulda ran them the fuck out of town... Grand Junction is full of blue collar conservatives, and ignorant dumbshits.. clearly. On behalf of Colorado, I apologize.
Go ahead and look up some countries that have socialized healthcare... Their hospitals are SHIT compared to ours, this includes Canada who love to brag about their healthcare... Please look it up, you'll be glad we don't have that..... Yet....
They're not all shit. Only huge countries that have it.. like Canada. Small countries in Europe have very decent socialized healthcare. But America is a huge country, so... we'll see.
Yes, I've heard the horror stories of countries with socialized medicine. And how they might not be able to be treated, because they have to wait in a long line of other people with the same problem.. etc, etc.. My thoughts are, that it could be made to work right somehow.. Just cause it has seemingly failed elsewhere, doesn't mean it can't work. And it's not like our country doesn't have the means to do it right...
It's called competitive base healthcare. Private Healthcare Companies compete for our business by providing the best coverage, the best care, and at the lowest price, as well as constantly working towards better medicine. It's not hard to get, most jobs offer it. The businesses we work for buy it from these Private Healthcare companies, that's why theres so much competition in healthcare, which is why it's such good coverage we get. So if we socialize it, these private healthcare companies aren't providing for us anymore, the government is (actually we are, Canadians actually pay for their healthcare) and it turns to crap because there's no longer competition in the healthcare market, it's just one big hospital. Let me make it easier...
Socialized healthcare = You all get cars, but they're all pintos...
Competitive base healthcare - You got car dealers fighting for Daddy(who wants to buy you a car) to buy from them, offering the best they can give with the lowest price possible...
Socialized healthcare doesn't work... Were fine...
I'm pretty sure it was Nixon who signed the bill to allow Health Care companies to privatize.. He was not fine.. and we are not fine..
I like your car analogy Steeliver.. but I would think of it as, everyone gets a new model Toyota Camry... Plus, I'm a poor bastard, and I'll take a Pinto anyday...
Chong, you're wrong... I'm 24, and faaaaaar from fucking rich, the last company I worked for (a CONSTRUCTION company I might add, not some fancy fucking job) gave me FULL MEDICAL COVERAGE... Times were certainly slow at times and I barely had enough money to pay the rent, but I could walk into the doctor anytime I wanted for a fucking checkup... Even Blockbuster fucking video provides medical, shit ain't hard to get. It helps if people stop smoking/selling weed and flipping burgers for a living and get out there to find a real job...
Jerkstore like I said earlier, please go look up the facts about socialized healthcare... The word free sounds great to everyone doesn't it, but it's not... They'res ALWAYS a price... People flee from they're countries to take advantage of our healthcare system... There's a reason why...
Well, I have been on the other end of the spectrum too.. Even while having a good healthcare provider, and all the best plans available, you can still get screwed! How does that happen??? Why am I paying for a $1500 ambulance ride to the ER, when I have been shelling out at least $2500 a year to them, without receiving any care! I think you should take a closer look at how things really work.. and think of me if something like that happens to you...
And those people that come here to take advantage of this wonderful system.... are evil, and ruthless capitalists, with absolutely no regard to preserving the decency of human life....
Most Healthcare providers will only pay for your ambulance when any other means of transportation to the hospital would be dangerous to your health, like breaking your neck stab/bullet wound ect.(serious cases like these are the only real reason you should be calling one). But if you broke your wrist while skating (or something else minor enough that you didn't need to be "air lifted" out of), and didn't have the common sense to ask someone for a ride there, so instead called an ambulance to pick you up, ya you might end up paying. As you know they're not cheap, so why would a healthcare company risk losing millions and millions on ambulance rides everytimes someone stubbed their toe...
Yes.. good point. And in my case, it was for an overdose... Which fucking should be covered. It was society that got me to that point to begin with...
But for a different example. I went into the dentist to get a root canal, and crown.. It was recommended that I have the ingrown molar behind the damaged tooth, removed.. Which I am told now, was unnecessary. Not that I suffered "out of pocket" for that, because I went to an oral surgeon.. What screwed me was only getting 40% coverage on a necessary, $2400 crown operation, which is deemed as "cosmetic surgery"... The kicker is, I never even got the crown put in, because my dentist couldn't fit the mold correctly, and is a fuck up.. so now there is still a crater in my mouth, and I am receiving bills to this day for the remaining balance o$500 some odd dollars, even though the operation was never finished, and that bastard never even ordered the crown... and this was 2 years ago...
Well, that's shitty and I'm sorry to hear that... That obviously wasn't the best coverage, and it's hard to stay on top of your plan I'm sure. I would've started a lawsuit against them actually, you can't pay for something that never happened... But staying on topic, if that were the case with socialized healthcare, you would have waited months for any results and (if it went through) the quality of surgery would have been TERRIBLE, and you would still be paying a shitload for your healthcare every year, and for god-offel care, Canada is years behind us in medical technology. The vast majority of people with coverage have no complaints at all, you just happened to be one of the unlucky few with that dental issue. Not all companies provide 100% medical, but the ones that don't usually provide the basic coverage that people need, which is why you need to know what is and what isn't considered necessary...
Yeah.. you're right. Pretty much was a couple of shitty, isolated events... And probably wouldn't have been as good of care if it was through socialized medicine, and I would have had to wait longer.. Prob all true things. And I am a dumbass mostly, in my particular case examples... But I still have faith it can work.. and I believe it's right.
Anyway.. We'll see what happens. The world could end before we see any "change".. right...
"I believe it's right." It IS right. Don't get me wrong, it would be great if it worked. Socialized medicine in itself, is a great idea. Everyone getting amazing medical care for free would be awesome, but what is behind socialized healthcare in today's world isn't great at all. I honestly wish it would work the way everyone thinks it does, amazing healthcare for free. But in today's day and age it just isn't a possibility or reality... Maybe someday in the future, they will come up with the perfect system and we will all be happy...
well, steelxliver, we would'nt need excellent free medical care if it was'nt for the 1906 clean food act. we hav'nt evolved enough. Thank you government! we all love copper and iron deficiency...it's by far the greatest detox ever...(sarcasm!) Thank you for having clean food. I love being poisoned.
Every other industrialized nation provides health care to their citizens, it is NOT free, it is paid through higher taxes: FACT.
The US has the most expensive health care on the planet, and 2nd place isn't close: FACT.
The US ranks with 3rd world nations on just about every list including infant mortality and average age of death: FACT
The US already has a system for taking care of the uninsured, it's called the emergency room, and it's outrageously expensive, and the insured end up footing the bill anyway. The only question is, do you want to make it cheaper for the people paying for it.
The problem isn't the uninsured. It's the people that think they are covered, until some 6 figure asshat with an MBA degree at the insurance company decides his department has spent too much money this month, and it's threatening his future promotion decides that you are not covered for that particular procedure. Go ahead sue, good luck with that. 7 years later, after you've lost your house and job, you MIGHT get a judgment.
You may not know this but, Im British. We, here in Britain, have a national health service. It is full of bureaucracy and wastage. Many people choose to go private.
I don't know all the details but public healthcare isn't all its cracked up to be.
The bottom line is, fuck all of you and, the US sucks and as long as it continues to do so, so will all of you, and I will continue to live in a much better country.
To anyone that thinks health care should be provided by the government just wants the government to do everything for them. I get health insurance from my company and I would hate to have it change because I have really good insurance that I pay about $100 a month for and I don't mind it because I use it. We shouldn't be forced to a government healthcare for everyone but start one for people who can't afford private care
Look, as for letting government handle yet another social program, all i have to say is just look how well the government handled this current mortgage crisis by forcing banks to make loans to people who could not afford them. Gvt sucks. Period. Social programs fail. Period.
uh drumrave, just because there is socialized medicine doesn't mean you can't have health insurance if you want to... don't you get that? don't you also get that you are PAYING 100$/month (1200$/year) for something that you could be getting for free (the EXACT same quality treatment..) so instead of paying for it, it comes out of the taxes you pay (you know.. the taxes that everyone pays and the money goes to .... well in the usa's case... military spending)
so instead of paying that 100$/month you would have 100$ extra a month to spend on whatever you would like. and guess what, your taxes wouldn't be increasing... your taxes would most likely be going DOWN, so you would be making even more money to spend on whatever you would like...
guess what that means.... the rich people (the people who own the stores you shop at and give money to with that extra money you now have?) are now making more money because people have more income to spend... problem for them? they are now paying more taxes to cover the fact that there is a good socialized medicine plan, etc etc.. but guess what.. they are STILL MAKING MORE MONEY THEN BEFORE... why? because there are a fuckton more people that have extra money to spend so the economy starts to boom because people are actually going out and buying things... when you tax the rich people less then the poorer people.... the system doesn't work (which is of course what has been happening in america and has been proven to not work... i mean.. BANKS going bankrupt.. lol....) when you tax people who make less money (the bulk of the population) that gives them some breathing room to 1) acquire more wealth 2) the ability to actually spend money on goods/services that help build the economy up internally.
here is a secret.. rich people try to get everything for as little as possible, thats one of the ways a LOT of rich people got to BE rich.. by being cheap fucking bastards..
anyone bashing social programs is completely ignorant, the only reason america isn't even MORE fucked is because of government bailing out the corporations (which shouldn't even be needed..)
if the bulk of the population had been taxed less and in turn made more money they would be able to pay their bills/mortgages and they would be able to start building investments and helping out the economy by being not only consumers.. but people could start openning small businesses and not having them fail because people can only shop at the cheapest places etc etc...
providing social medicine etc and taxing the richest (and smallest population base) the most is not a bad thing... and guess what.. it HELPS capitalism because new small businesses aren't going to fucking fail because noone has money to buy shit.
military spending? are you joking yak? so instead of paying taxes for a war that's about to end. we change over all the money we pay for socialzed health care? Did you forget that the rich also pay pretty much all the taxes in this country even with all the loopholes they have? Taxing the rich even more is NOT the answer. Not at all.
lol, Robert Jordan. That fucktard died before he could rape his last book. Too bad i stopped reading that shit on the 9th one. Way too boring, but the first three books were awesome.
what the government needs to do for taxes is to stop taxing my income they should tax my spending, then i'll have my entire paycheck minus healthcare to buy whatever i want
Americans: your healthcare system sucks. period. Come to Europe and look at the way it is run over here. No, don't give me arguments on hear-say. come see for yourself. i lived in your country for 4 years, loved every second of it but i still say your healthcare system is the worst of the worst. and i can compare, unlike most of you inbreds who have never crossed county lines, let alone left your state or god forbid your precious country. america DOES NOT have all the answers to ALL the problems. The sooner you deal with that fact the sooner you'll get that great country of yours working right again. and that was said without sarcasm.

Haha, you guys know me too well. Yep, was pretty drunk and had had a big screaming match with my mother-in-law a little earlier, so I wasn't in a good mood.
On a related note, my mother-in-law, the bitter, old crone, is a humpbacked midget and reminds me personally of a diseased badger. The sad part is, as tough as she is, something like a rock hard piece of jerky, she'll probably outlive me.
OH NOES, OBAMA WANTS TO RETURN TAX LEVELS TO WHERE THEY WERE BEFORE BUSH WAS ELECTED!! HE'S A DIRTY COMMUNIST!!! Fuck, these people are retarded. I can't wait to see them crying on Nov.5. McPain is a traitor.
no. not at all. it's just that all candidates (no matter in which western "democracy") advocate the same set of ideologies. and if there is no real choice between alternatives voting is basically meaningless...
Neoliberal and conservicunt days are over. Accept it. Deal with it. Move on. We had to endure 8 years of stupidity and mental retardation. 4 years of somethin' else ain't gonna kill ya. Stop yer whinig and bitching.
actually, most of this shit in this video is true. or half true...SEE, it is also true mccain is the better candidate. problem is he has equally bad things about him as good things. But if you put both obama and mccain on a scale obama would out weigh...and usually people want to loose weight!!! hey, vote mccain and your gas prices go down and you can afford to own your own house!! vote obama and you will wish you knew a thing or two about fermentation of corn and you won't be able to afford to by a house, but hey! you got tax cuts so why the fuck not buy a brand new fullscreen tv stimulating the economy while further endorsing the use of fossil fuels that further increase the destruction of our planet...hey! mccain will give tax cuts to oil companies!! shit yeah, lowered fuel prices....hhaha. you are all noobs.
but then again i am the Rabbi of semi dark people so i am best off shaving my full half-blonde beard off and continue to let this country founded on white superiority continue to unionize nigger hunter/killer instincts burrow within our labyrinth of beliefs of anti socialism, hate, and racism. our destruction of god got rid of judgement. thanks, now an animal can run our country!
obama that nigger found your weakness. he will exploit it wil tax cuts. this country won't live without war since our country/system was founded on war. don't kid yourself kids, a black man won't create less hostility.
i might have considered visiting D.C. but since obama will be pres, D.c. will be high class ghetto now. No thanks. first its g.bush who does'nt speak well english now its a young black man trying to bring black peoples beliefs further into the government. sounds like war to me!
bam bam, drive by black secret service agent, your arm extends above your waste...BAM BAM! man, i am going to love the streets in the next 6 years. crime will rise. thank you america. have anice night.
just like in south park its always going to be an election between a giant douche and a turd sandwich you just have to decide which is goin to be for the people and not the rich....
Im voting Obama because McCain has already attempted and committed fraud before
its called the Keating 5.....Look it up
But Brown is our saviour! Or so the media is leading us to believe with his fucking bail-outs...
One minute everyone fucking hates him, next he's being praised for "saving" the economy.. isn't he partly responsible for getting us there in the first place?
See, this is what the fucking retard right-wingers always come to. "He's a socialist!" Really? Why is Obama a socialist? Because he wants to roll back the tax cuts on the rich and give the tax cuts to the middle class? So wait a second, giving tax cuts to the rich and not to the middle class is just good ol' fashioned free market tactics, but when you try to help out the middle class you're a dirty socialist?
To all you fucking retards who still say he's a Muslim. Please show me ANY PROOF! Because as far back as his history goes, he's attended CHRISTIAN churches and been a lifelong Christian. Yes, his school that he attended when he was a child taught a Muslim course, but it also taught classes regarding other religions too.
This is the right-wing base. These people are the reason that Repiglicans still hold any political seats. Republicans rely on Southern retards who can't pass Elementary school to keep them elected.
Remember people, if you make under $200,000 a year you'll receive a tax CUT under Obama's tax plan. How in the fuck could you support McCain's plan that wants to keep giving breaks to the wealthy if you're not even wealthy yourself?
Well you get a monthly check from the Government to live there and you dont have to pay the property tax if you dont have siding on your house since its considered un-finished. But Doritos were 7 dollars in Talkeetna so it may balance out
Fall through spring I cant imagine much shipping being done with the snow unless you live pretty much in Juno, Anchorage, or somewhere along the "highway" to Denali. Heh when people say its a wild place, they arent kidding
he was muslim up until he converted to christianity when he was 29. He was also born barry soetoro and changed his name when he went to a muslim school in Indonesia and never changed it back
Let's keep harping on socialism dumb white rednecks from Colorado.
Make no mention of the fact that the countries with the highest socioeconomic status and the most wealth per capita are socialist countries (Norway, Sweden, and Finland). People who automatically connect socialism with disparity are dumb as fuck.
the implications of that may be lost on you dicks..but to me that's an incredible thing...if i was that groovy african american obama,i'd be mentioning that every chance i got..i bet mccain isn't much of a reader either
Your dog breed is described on Pets4Homes as being a "white powder puff of a dog". Apparently Spanish sailors liked them as "companions". Personally I think they mis-spelled "fuck toys".
I see you've been using the wrong translation program again. The South African translation is actually "The white ball of fluff on the end of the dutchmans cock"
Back to McCain not being computer illiterate. Didnt I hear all his fingers are pretty much fucked because of his time spent as a prisoner in Nam? Thats some harsh shit harking on a guy who cant type because his fingers are all fucked.
K-Billy, Fucked fingers or not, you can get by using only one or two fingers to type. Or even a stick duct taped to his hand. There's no excuse for a potential world leader to be computer illiterate.
Comments to Why Do You Support Mccain?
socialism... fascism... Marxism... terrorist... liar is Obama... wise words by wise Americans...
They always find the stupidest people to put on the news to tell the story.
the mention of socialism does not reflect the cries of a desperate republican campaign. it is a means of pointing out how awful socialism is, and how equitable, fair, and desirable capitalism has always been and ever shall be.
Sure, America's distribution of wealth is very equitable.
the distribution of wealth means, take from rich people and single white males and give to women with lots of kids and blacks
redistribution***
Why not? One of the perks of making a lot of money is, you can afford to pay higher taxes. It's funny how rich people think it's only fair that they pay the same taxes as everyone else. Really? Just admit you're a greedy bastard and get on with life. God forbid, you might have to wait a couple months before you can refinance your third summer home in Maui! Damn these unbearable tax hikes!
If you don't like it, move to Mexico, where that six figure salary will get you a hell of a lot more than it does here. Otherwise, suck it up and accept your government-enforced generosity.

YEP , IN 2006 AMERICA VOTED FOR CHANGE!...AND WE SURE GOT IT!!!....NOW OBAMA, the DEM'S CANDIDATE FOR PRESIDENT--AND THE POLLS SAY HE'S GONNA BE 'THE MAN'--CLAIMS HE'S GONNA REALLY GIVE US CHANGE!!....JUST HOW MUCH MORE 'CHANGE' DO YA THINK YOU CAN STAND???.....
TYPING IN ALL CAPS MAKES ME FEEL SMART AND IMPORTANT.
the person above me has no life
well.....the guy above that douche bag....but mehh.....like it matters.......they probley know eachother
And who the fuck are you?
timmy , way too much time 2 read that shit.
Who wants to break it to him that since bush took office the country is also out $10 trillion, half a state and the WTC? And that caps isn't auto pilot for smart.
He's a simple twat made for simple times.
gottlos, your wealth envy is on full display. How pathetic.
Fuck off, you. You don't envy wealth? Fuck right off.
Yeah, K-Silly.
Envy wealth? LOL. Sorry Hank, didnt get brainwashed to do so. My goal in life is to retire comfortably and wealthy.
You can find the same number of idiots on the BO side. Grow up kids.
just fyi, every year bush has been in power the dollar has been falling more and more... i know because we get paid in usd... when i moved here the us dollar was very strong... around 1.50 to the canadian dollar every year since (those years bush has been in "power") the dollar has slowly become less and less... this year quite a few times the us dollar has actually been worth less then the canadian dollar. the "first 6 years" weren't fine... its been a steady slope leading up to the shit that has been happening in the last 1-2 years.. people just seem to ignore things until they can't be ignored any longer (which is what was happening)
the problem is the fact that when you keep losing (spending on military) and borrowing more and more money it might *SEEM* like a good idea.. until the point comes where you just can't even tread water (which is what is happening)
people "voting for change" doesn't matter, things have gotten fucked up and its not going to be an easy or quick fix...
Yes yak,it will take time ,would be nice to have a quick change , ain't gonna happen .
"happening in the last 1-2 years.." Yeah, after the Democrats got a majority, everything really started going to shit.
O , and things were so good under the bush reign.
*Refer to big_tim post up above...*
Hey big Tim, when was the last time Democrats spent $3 Trillion in less than a decade? Oh, right.
I almost trust that old guy who says "he's a liar, hes a thief take my word."
K-Silly, you say you goal is to retire wealthy, but that you don't envy wealth.
Try making some fucking sense sometime.

Hahahahahahah. What a dumbass.

Arent you an English teacher Hank? Should I feel sorry for your kids? Perhaps you missed the part of my sentence where I said, "my goal in life..."
It wouldn't be your goal in life to obtain wealth unless you coveted those who have it. So yeah, you're the dumbass here. Concede and move on.
Really? Is that how life works Gottlos? What did you have to say about rich people again so I can take what you say seriously? Oh yeah, "One of the perks of making a lot of money is, you can afford to pay higher taxes... Just admit you're a greedy bastard and get on with life." --- Yeah, you sound completely reasonable and show no sign of wealth envy at all. why dont you fuck off and stay worthless.
Huh... sounds pretty reasonable to me. And since you're the only person who apparently has such a problem with it, maybe you should stop and reconsider where you stand. Also, when did I deny having wealth envy? If I recall, you accused me of it, and then denied it yourself. Why don't YOU first learn to read, then fuck off, and stay stupid. Not that there's much you can do about the latter anyway.
I have a problem with people with wealth envy, spouting off retarded leftist rhetoric. I totally called you out on this. Hank was drunk and forgot the definition of envy. Then you proceeded to make it seem like I was the one who actually had the "envy." Sorry, but having a very realistic "goal" is not "covetous" at all you stupid fucking leftist tool. You libs are so fucking demented to think the world owes you a living and that you shouldnt have to work for shit. I stand by my current statement of fuck off and stay worthless and all the rest of liberal stereotypes that probably also apply to you.
^Yet another casualty of the Texas state school system.
It's very simple. You want to become wealthy, because you envy wealthy people. Acknowledge or it, your statement stands.
*Acknowledge it or not
So with that logic, I would only be going to culinary school because I envy Chefs? I would only be seeking the presidency of the United States because I envy power? I seek enlightenment of body and mind because I envy priests?
So I state that I seek financial stability and wealth because I envy those with money? LOL! Talk about casualties of education.
Your chefs example is right, except for the only part. The other two are wrong for reasons I won't explain, because you are not likely to understand them.
It's so easy to understand.
You want to be like rich people. You want what they have, wealth. You feel you would be happier if you were wealthy. You fit the below definition to a tee.

1. a feeling of discontent with regard to another's success, possessions, etc...
So you admit I am right, but wont go into the other examples because you dont have the time and claim I will not understand. Uh-huh. Pretty weak Hank. Sorry, but I think I win this one.
There's retards on both sides.
Absolutely. I'd love to see the video where they interview the fans at an inner-city Obama rally and see what sort of answers they get. But my bigger problem with this crowd is that most of them probably had decent educations. Grant it, most of them seem shitfaced as well.
The Howard Stern Obama thing was pretty comprable to this.
exactly what I was thinking...people spout a regurgitated message fed to them by the media and all kinds of unreliable sources
Ill have you know that Wikipedia is NOT an unreliable source, Jamiee
Jamiee's right. You heard probably two or three of the people walking by and just quoting lines from the campaign commercials. And when asked more on the subject, they just walked away and didn't answer.
They passed out joints at the gate.
Yeah, but nobody inhaled.
WHITE POW... oh shit wrong rally.
shit those people didn't have to smoke to get that way, i think inbreading took care of it
When you misspell a word in a statement like that, you're just askin' for it.
in breading, is that the combo of yeast , flour and water... under a structure ?
These fuckers don't even know what Socialism is, no less how to spell it.
1.) $700 Billion dollar bailout plan = Socialism
2.) Government buying out failing banks = Socialism
3. Government interfering with economics period. = Socialism.
If you're going to down Obama, at least do it right and with words you know how to spell.
gotta agree with you on this on. this shit is/has been happening for years.
govt bailing out gm/chrysler = socialism
the entire VA = socialism
public education = socialism
the lifetime health care coverage that bush and mccain receive = slice o' socialism
social security = socialism
unemployment insurance = socialism
i'm sure all these cretins will burn their SS checks, and avoid collecting unemployment...
obama=socialism cuz hes muslim and all
^(Sarcasm, I know) But he has an anti-american pastor?? It's another anti-obama thing that makes no sense. Something has got to give.
I do enjoy the fact that that one chap said that the cold war was fought against socialism...
There is this country called Argentina, it tried to become purely capitalist once in 1999. The whole country pretty much imploded and died overnight.
So... Socialism, in terms of Gov't involvement in economics, is pretty much mandatory.
Thanks for the list of failed social programs here in America! Thanks for helping make my point they need to be removed! Socialism does not work. Period.
Capitalism works a treat. You been watching the news, K-Billy?
When capitalism fails, the state will provide.
U.S mail is pretty socialistic. sorry sorry..
U.S. Postal Service= Socialism
and that's going to fail to oranje. I for one was against the bailout btw.
America's failed social programs aren't evidence of the failure of socialism; it's evidence of the failure of socialist programs in a capitalist country.
Is that a black McCain supporter at 2:54?
I'd like to see a video of people asking Obama supporters why they support him, and what he plans on "changing". That'd be pretty amusing.
yeah, actually, do they have that video anywhere here on this interweb? hehe...tacos rule
Obama has the majority of people sold on pure face value.. I don't know very many people that could explain clearly, one of his proposed initiatives.. As a strong, educated supported, I can honestly say that I have no fucking clue. But the mans got my vote.
I'm not even American and I like him. SO I think it's fair to conclude that to like his is anti-american.
"He believes in...in tax cuts. And-and things Reagan believed in like trickle-down economics."
That was my favorite.
mine as well. it's astonishing that someone other than a billionaire would cheerlead for supply-side economics. well, unless you realize that someone was fucking retarded.
its like he listened to obama talking about mccains terrible policies and thought they were good ideas
My favorite was "I went to college for 5 weeks, and failed all my classes." Enough said about the typical conservative, eh?
And these idiots do not know what socialism is. Read about what's going on in Argentina right now, now that's socialism.
"a rising tide floats all boats."
hahaha
Americans don't know what socialism is, period. The UK, Canada, and just about any other country in the EU are far more liberal than USA. If Obama's socialist, those leaders are commies on crack.
I think that was filmed in my hometown.
well it says where it was filmed........
Fuck off, pink tie wearing faggot.

WHAT!? that guy just said that there was no such thing as communism that the realities are socialism and fascism... it's the other way aroundsocialism is the ideal government that is intented to be set up and communism and facism are the realities. he's just saying that because that's what he hear's he's not actually thinking i don't think any of these people are the're sheep following eachother bleating because everyone else is. that is the perfect example of why i don't associate with the republican party even though i will vote for mccain. this isn't red vs blue here, it's think for yourself and choose according to the issues and the histories of the candidates people fucking piss me off sometimes...you know what fuck it, i'll vote for whoever is legalizing weed and putting harder restraints on alchohol

I have some extra punctuation you can have if you want. Looks like you're running a bit low.
i think that guy was somewhere on this vid
tldr
Its the "I failed all my classes" guy
hahaha
and since when is terrorist become a side, obama's not a terrorist these people are ignorant, i bet they expect if he's sworn in he'll start going alalalalalalalala and shooting into the air while muslims and terrorists swarm the area... thankyou bush, thank you
think about it. some fucking morons actually believe that obama is a terrorist. that means they believe that under the bush administration, a terrorist has been allowed not only to live in the US without being apprehended, but to become a senator and serious presidential contender.
then you have the christian right, who literally are terrorists, given that they employ extreme fear by conjuring up images of nuclear holocaust and other such bullshit under a potential obama administration. but that's ok.
^says the guy who advocated dragging people of a different mindset out into the street and executing them...
You don't hear much about terrorists that were born in Hawaii.
...Tiredguy's a muslim?
"^says the guy who advocated dragging people of a different mindset out into the street and executing them..."
Thats me.
anyone who belives obama is a terrorist is obviously an idiot. Anyone who thinks the Christian right are terrorists, is also an idiot.
technically by definition some christian evangelicals are terrorists
and so is any preacher that tells you youre going to hell
you should try reading the dictionary some time
You could then say anything you can label is a terrorist. Why not? And you know what?
You should try getting an avatar first before you do anything else. how long has it been you've had that pos avatar kojach?
uhh that is an avatar douche i made it myself
suckadick
lol ok...
im tired of talking about the retards in these videos are trying to explain to the retards on ms that dont understand theyre fucking stupid
im simply going to say everyone is a fucking socialist and if you have half a brain you will figure out why and stop saying its a bad thing
i think you're a terrorist
I think he's smarter than me. Look how condescending he is! He knows we're not worth his time, but he atleast took the time to tell us that. I like Kojach.
shut up you fucking socialists
it's easy to make people look like idiots
well, the people make it easy to make them look like idiots
it'd be easy to stand outside of any noobfest asking the same questions of lots of people. then editing
most people are idiots..nobody could argue with that

I fucking hate conservatives.. How is it okay to call someone a socialist, just because they want to provide healthcare to everyone? I've never much been a fan of eugenics, but something must be done here.. Those dumb cunts knew better than to come to Denver.. We woulda ran them the fuck out of town... Grand Junction is full of blue collar conservatives, and ignorant dumbshits.. clearly. On behalf of Colorado, I apologize.
Go ahead and look up some countries that have socialized healthcare... Their hospitals are SHIT compared to ours, this includes Canada who love to brag about their healthcare... Please look it up, you'll be glad we don't have that..... Yet....
They're not all shit. Only huge countries that have it.. like Canada. Small countries in Europe have very decent socialized healthcare. But America is a huge country, so... we'll see.
Yes, I've heard the horror stories of countries with socialized medicine. And how they might not be able to be treated, because they have to wait in a long line of other people with the same problem.. etc, etc.. My thoughts are, that it could be made to work right somehow.. Just cause it has seemingly failed elsewhere, doesn't mean it can't work. And it's not like our country doesn't have the means to do it right...
Sorry, but America's health system is fucking shit unless you are wealthy.
It's called competitive base healthcare. Private Healthcare Companies compete for our business by providing the best coverage, the best care, and at the lowest price, as well as constantly working towards better medicine. It's not hard to get, most jobs offer it. The businesses we work for buy it from these Private Healthcare companies, that's why theres so much competition in healthcare, which is why it's such good coverage we get. So if we socialize it, these private healthcare companies aren't providing for us anymore, the government is (actually we are, Canadians actually pay for their healthcare) and it turns to crap because there's no longer competition in the healthcare market, it's just one big hospital. Let me make it easier...
Socialized healthcare = You all get cars, but they're all pintos...
Competitive base healthcare - You got car dealers fighting for Daddy(who wants to buy you a car) to buy from them, offering the best they can give with the lowest price possible...
Socialized healthcare doesn't work... Were fine...
I'm pretty sure it was Nixon who signed the bill to allow Health Care companies to privatize.. He was not fine.. and we are not fine..
I like your car analogy Steeliver.. but I would think of it as, everyone gets a new model Toyota Camry... Plus, I'm a poor bastard, and I'll take a Pinto anyday...
Chong, you're wrong... I'm 24, and faaaaaar from fucking rich, the last company I worked for (a CONSTRUCTION company I might add, not some fancy fucking job) gave me FULL MEDICAL COVERAGE... Times were certainly slow at times and I barely had enough money to pay the rent, but I could walk into the doctor anytime I wanted for a fucking checkup... Even Blockbuster fucking video provides medical, shit ain't hard to get. It helps if people stop smoking/selling weed and flipping burgers for a living and get out there to find a real job...
Jerkstore like I said earlier, please go look up the facts about socialized healthcare... The word free sounds great to everyone doesn't it, but it's not... They'res ALWAYS a price... People flee from they're countries to take advantage of our healthcare system... There's a reason why...
Well, I have been on the other end of the spectrum too.. Even while having a good healthcare provider, and all the best plans available, you can still get screwed! How does that happen??? Why am I paying for a $1500 ambulance ride to the ER, when I have been shelling out at least $2500 a year to them, without receiving any care! I think you should take a closer look at how things really work.. and think of me if something like that happens to you...
And those people that come here to take advantage of this wonderful system.... are evil, and ruthless capitalists, with absolutely no regard to preserving the decency of human life....
Not that I would wish that on anyone.. I just feel, that if we have the means to make sure everyone can get medical treatment, then I think we should.
Most Healthcare providers will only pay for your ambulance when any other means of transportation to the hospital would be dangerous to your health, like breaking your neck stab/bullet wound ect.(serious cases like these are the only real reason you should be calling one). But if you broke your wrist while skating (or something else minor enough that you didn't need to be "air lifted" out of), and didn't have the common sense to ask someone for a ride there, so instead called an ambulance to pick you up, ya you might end up paying. As you know they're not cheap, so why would a healthcare company risk losing millions and millions on ambulance rides everytimes someone stubbed their toe...
It would be way funnier if we were arguing about healthcare under the "peanut butter blowjob" video...
Yes.. good point. And in my case, it was for an overdose... Which fucking should be covered. It was society that got me to that point to begin with...
But for a different example. I went into the dentist to get a root canal, and crown.. It was recommended that I have the ingrown molar behind the damaged tooth, removed.. Which I am told now, was unnecessary. Not that I suffered "out of pocket" for that, because I went to an oral surgeon.. What screwed me was only getting 40% coverage on a necessary, $2400 crown operation, which is deemed as "cosmetic surgery"... The kicker is, I never even got the crown put in, because my dentist couldn't fit the mold correctly, and is a fuck up.. so now there is still a crater in my mouth, and I am receiving bills to this day for the remaining balance o$500 some odd dollars, even though the operation was never finished, and that bastard never even ordered the crown... and this was 2 years ago...
^^LOL... or not arguing at all...
Well, that's shitty and I'm sorry to hear that... That obviously wasn't the best coverage, and it's hard to stay on top of your plan I'm sure. I would've started a lawsuit against them actually, you can't pay for something that never happened... But staying on topic, if that were the case with socialized healthcare, you would have waited months for any results and (if it went through) the quality of surgery would have been TERRIBLE, and you would still be paying a shitload for your healthcare every year, and for god-offel care, Canada is years behind us in medical technology. The vast majority of people with coverage have no complaints at all, you just happened to be one of the unlucky few with that dental issue. Not all companies provide 100% medical, but the ones that don't usually provide the basic coverage that people need, which is why you need to know what is and what isn't considered necessary...
Yeah.. you're right. Pretty much was a couple of shitty, isolated events... And probably wouldn't have been as good of care if it was through socialized medicine, and I would have had to wait longer.. Prob all true things. And I am a dumbass mostly, in my particular case examples... But I still have faith it can work.. and I believe it's right.
Anyway.. We'll see what happens. The world could end before we see any "change".. right...
"I believe it's right." It IS right. Don't get me wrong, it would be great if it worked. Socialized medicine in itself, is a great idea. Everyone getting amazing medical care for free would be awesome, but what is behind socialized healthcare in today's world isn't great at all. I honestly wish it would work the way everyone thinks it does, amazing healthcare for free. But in today's day and age it just isn't a possibility or reality... Maybe someday in the future, they will come up with the perfect system and we will all be happy...
There's something we can agree on... Amen to that brother.
"It would be way funnier if we were arguing about healthcare under the "peanut butter blowjob" video..."
Lmfao
well, steelxliver, we would'nt need excellent free medical care if it was'nt for the 1906 clean food act. we hav'nt evolved enough. Thank you government! we all love copper and iron deficiency...it's by far the greatest detox ever...(sarcasm!) Thank you for having clean food. I love being poisoned.
thanks to clean food we now got cancer. I think medical care is the least of your worries.
Every other industrialized nation provides health care to their citizens, it is NOT free, it is paid through higher taxes: FACT.
The US has the most expensive health care on the planet, and 2nd place isn't close: FACT.
The US ranks with 3rd world nations on just about every list including infant mortality and average age of death: FACT
The US already has a system for taking care of the uninsured, it's called the emergency room, and it's outrageously expensive, and the insured end up footing the bill anyway. The only question is, do you want to make it cheaper for the people paying for it.
The problem isn't the uninsured. It's the people that think they are covered, until some 6 figure asshat with an MBA degree at the insurance company decides his department has spent too much money this month, and it's threatening his future promotion decides that you are not covered for that particular procedure. Go ahead sue, good luck with that. 7 years later, after you've lost your house and job, you MIGHT get a judgment.
You may not know this but, Im British. We, here in Britain, have a national health service. It is full of bureaucracy and wastage. Many people choose to go private.
I don't know all the details but public healthcare isn't all its cracked up to be.
Noone cares if your British. Being british is equivalent to being a harlequin baby.
The bottom line is, fuck all of you and, the US sucks and as long as it continues to do so, so will all of you, and I will continue to live in a much better country.
But IM BRITISH!
Did I mention FUCK ALL OF YOU!!!! I FUCKING HATE 95% OF EVERYONE WHO COMES HERE!
Someone has been hitting the sauce.
luckily he'll be passed out in 20 minutes
To anyone that thinks health care should be provided by the government just wants the government to do everything for them. I get health insurance from my company and I would hate to have it change because I have really good insurance that I pay about $100 a month for and I don't mind it because I use it. We shouldn't be forced to a government healthcare for everyone but start one for people who can't afford private care
and 95% of everyone here hates you to Hank. What does that do for ya?
Look, as for letting government handle yet another social program, all i have to say is just look how well the government handled this current mortgage crisis by forcing banks to make loans to people who could not afford them. Gvt sucks. Period. Social programs fail. Period.
What? The government didn't force banks to give loans to people who couldn't afford them.
uh drumrave, just because there is socialized medicine doesn't mean you can't have health insurance if you want to... don't you get that? don't you also get that you are PAYING 100$/month (1200$/year) for something that you could be getting for free (the EXACT same quality treatment..) so instead of paying for it, it comes out of the taxes you pay (you know.. the taxes that everyone pays and the money goes to .... well in the usa's case... military spending)
so instead of paying that 100$/month you would have 100$ extra a month to spend on whatever you would like. and guess what, your taxes wouldn't be increasing... your taxes would most likely be going DOWN, so you would be making even more money to spend on whatever you would like...
guess what that means.... the rich people (the people who own the stores you shop at and give money to with that extra money you now have?) are now making more money because people have more income to spend... problem for them? they are now paying more taxes to cover the fact that there is a good socialized medicine plan, etc etc.. but guess what.. they are STILL MAKING MORE MONEY THEN BEFORE... why? because there are a fuckton more people that have extra money to spend so the economy starts to boom because people are actually going out and buying things... when you tax the rich people less then the poorer people.... the system doesn't work (which is of course what has been happening in america and has been proven to not work... i mean.. BANKS going bankrupt.. lol....) when you tax people who make less money (the bulk of the population) that gives them some breathing room to 1) acquire more wealth 2) the ability to actually spend money on goods/services that help build the economy up internally.
here is a secret.. rich people try to get everything for as little as possible, thats one of the ways a LOT of rich people got to BE rich.. by being cheap fucking bastards..
anyone bashing social programs is completely ignorant, the only reason america isn't even MORE fucked is because of government bailing out the corporations (which shouldn't even be needed..)
if the bulk of the population had been taxed less and in turn made more money they would be able to pay their bills/mortgages and they would be able to start building investments and helping out the economy by being not only consumers.. but people could start openning small businesses and not having them fail because people can only shop at the cheapest places etc etc...
providing social medicine etc and taxing the richest (and smallest population base) the most is not a bad thing... and guess what.. it HELPS capitalism because new small businesses aren't going to fucking fail because noone has money to buy shit.
jesus.
you mean the fictional character?
Did CruelHM hack yak's account?
Or maybe it was Robert Jordan.
military spending? are you joking yak? so instead of paying taxes for a war that's about to end. we change over all the money we pay for socialzed health care? Did you forget that the rich also pay pretty much all the taxes in this country even with all the loopholes they have? Taxing the rich even more is NOT the answer. Not at all.
lol, Robert Jordan. That fucktard died before he could rape his last book. Too bad i stopped reading that shit on the 9th one. Way too boring, but the first three books were awesome.
I quit halfway through number 5 or 6.
Wait, I don't think Hank likes me, please Hank be my friend.......Bahahaha
what the government needs to do for taxes is to stop taxing my income they should tax my spending, then i'll have my entire paycheck minus healthcare to buy whatever i want
Americans: your healthcare system sucks. period. Come to Europe and look at the way it is run over here. No, don't give me arguments on hear-say. come see for yourself. i lived in your country for 4 years, loved every second of it but i still say your healthcare system is the worst of the worst. and i can compare, unlike most of you inbreds who have never crossed county lines, let alone left your state or god forbid your precious country. america DOES NOT have all the answers to ALL the problems. The sooner you deal with that fact the sooner you'll get that great country of yours working right again. and that was said without sarcasm.
i'd like america a whole lot more if they had a public health care system
I can assure you that no one gives a fuck what you think about our country or why.
Our country? Didn't know 1rish1 wasn't...Irish.

Haha, you guys know me too well. Yep, was pretty drunk and had had a big screaming match with my mother-in-law a little earlier, so I wasn't in a good mood.
On a related note, my mother-in-law, the bitter, old crone, is a humpbacked midget and reminds me personally of a diseased badger. The sad part is, as tough as she is, something like a rock hard piece of jerky, she'll probably outlive me.
I laughed at the diseased badger thing.

Yeah, about halfway through I started thinkin Arby's.
Neoliberal and conservicunt days are over. Accept it. Deal with it. Move on. We had to endure 8 years of stupidity and mental retardation. 4 years of somethin' else ain't gonna kill ya. Stop yer whinig and bitching.
actually, most of this shit in this video is true. or half true...SEE, it is also true mccain is the better candidate. problem is he has equally bad things about him as good things. But if you put both obama and mccain on a scale obama would out weigh...and usually people want to loose weight!!! hey, vote mccain and your gas prices go down and you can afford to own your own house!! vote obama and you will wish you knew a thing or two about fermentation of corn and you won't be able to afford to by a house, but hey! you got tax cuts so why the fuck not buy a brand new fullscreen tv stimulating the economy while further endorsing the use of fossil fuels that further increase the destruction of our planet...hey! mccain will give tax cuts to oil companies!! shit yeah, lowered fuel prices....hhaha. you are all noobs.
but then again i am the Rabbi of semi dark people so i am best off shaving my full half-blonde beard off and continue to let this country founded on white superiority continue to unionize nigger hunter/killer instincts burrow within our labyrinth of beliefs of anti socialism, hate, and racism. our destruction of god got rid of judgement. thanks, now an animal can run our country!
I'm voting for Mccain because I'm a Republican.
Don't worry. We all make mistakes.
i am voting mccain because balance is about greatness is not for the masses!
obama that nigger found your weakness. he will exploit it wil tax cuts. this country won't live without war since our country/system was founded on war. don't kid yourself kids, a black man won't create less hostility.
i might have considered visiting D.C. but since obama will be pres, D.c. will be high class ghetto now. No thanks. first its g.bush who does'nt speak well english now its a young black man trying to bring black peoples beliefs further into the government. sounds like war to me!
bam bam, drive by black secret service agent, your arm extends above your waste...BAM BAM! man, i am going to love the streets in the next 6 years. crime will rise. thank you america. have anice night.
If you're voting for McCain because of the R next to his name... You're a fucking idiot.
just like in south park its always going to be an election between a giant douche and a turd sandwich you just have to decide which is goin to be for the people and not the rich....
Im voting Obama because McCain has already attempted and committed fraud before
its called the Keating 5.....Look it up
Boring. That old cunt will be dead in a year anyway so whats the point in voting for him?
What about Cameron and Brown?
Anyone?
lol...you don't know what the hell im talking about.
only the president of the USA seems to matter today... its as if all other political people are unimportant.
well....the truth hurts huh...
cameron and brown are like merkel and steinmeier. or blair and schröder before. they are all the same neoliberal scum...
But Brown is our saviour! Or so the media is leading us to believe with his fucking bail-outs...
One minute everyone fucking hates him, next he's being praised for "saving" the economy.. isn't he partly responsible for getting us there in the first place?
him and Darling are a pair of idiots if they think its ok to spend billions of £'s proping those greedy banks up.
i still like to remain ignorant on this whole voting bollocks
You misspelled "My name is fries and I am a fucking retard."
Spelling isn't his strong point.
So wait, now Europe is considered communist? And education is the work of the devil, shit!
See, this is what the fucking retard right-wingers always come to. "He's a socialist!" Really? Why is Obama a socialist? Because he wants to roll back the tax cuts on the rich and give the tax cuts to the middle class? So wait a second, giving tax cuts to the rich and not to the middle class is just good ol' fashioned free market tactics, but when you try to help out the middle class you're a dirty socialist?
To all you fucking retards who still say he's a Muslim. Please show me ANY PROOF! Because as far back as his history goes, he's attended CHRISTIAN churches and been a lifelong Christian. Yes, his school that he attended when he was a child taught a Muslim course, but it also taught classes regarding other religions too.
This is the right-wing base. These people are the reason that Repiglicans still hold any political seats. Republicans rely on Southern retards who can't pass Elementary school to keep them elected.
Remember people, if you make under $200,000 a year you'll receive a tax CUT under Obama's tax plan. How in the fuck could you support McCain's plan that wants to keep giving breaks to the wealthy if you're not even wealthy yourself?
i think that most of these people talking are well under upper middle class.... they just don't realize that i guess...
Imma just diggin my bunker and buying canned food, twinkies, and bullets. Vote however you may please.
That's not a bad plan. I was actually looking at land parcels in Alaska. (no pun)
Well you get a monthly check from the Government to live there and you dont have to pay the property tax if you dont have siding on your house since its considered un-finished. But Doritos were 7 dollars in Talkeetna so it may balance out
as long as you have the internet you can order regular priced doritos as long as they ship to alaska
Fall through spring I cant imagine much shipping being done with the snow unless you live pretty much in Juno, Anchorage, or somewhere along the "highway" to Denali. Heh when people say its a wild place, they arent kidding
Don't forget almost all that shit passes through the border twice, so that's why the price is jacked. (And Alaska's far as fuck away.)
Why would anyone want to live in Alaska? Its cold as shit.
The cold keeps out the riff-raff. The further south you go, the more lazy dumbass scumbags there are. Fact.
Now, please, strip away all the BS and dogma. Seriously, at one time in his life, Obama HAD to be a Muslim, nes pas?
Hey, at one time we were all different people .
Yes, so clearly he's a terrorist.
he was muslim up until he converted to christianity when he was 29. He was also born barry soetoro and changed his name when he went to a muslim school in Indonesia and never changed it back
just as much as you were a cat , once, ever, never in another life claude.
^See, you guys are getting all pissy. I was trying to ask a legit question. -Thanks drumrave.
How was he born Soetoro, drumrave, you dipshit? That's the name of the guy his mother married after he was already born.
Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
I agree.
that goes well with your avatar Fugs.
Let's keep harping on socialism dumb white rednecks from Colorado.
Make no mention of the fact that the countries with the highest socioeconomic status and the most wealth per capita are socialist countries (Norway, Sweden, and Finland). People who automatically connect socialism with disparity are dumb as fuck.
Don't forget Legoland.
Moving to Sweden doesn't sound like that bad an idea...
except Plantshit lives there...
john mccain doesn't know how to use a computer.. now that's scary
the implications of that may be lost on you dicks..but to me that's an incredible thing...if i was that groovy african american obama,i'd be mentioning that every chance i got..i bet mccain isn't much of a reader either
We all know Palin isn't.
If that's right, and he gets voted in, America's gonna be the laughing stock of the world. Shit, I bet even Bush can use one.
it's true as far as i know mccain has been quoted as saying he's totally computer illiterate lots of times..like he thinks its ok
i'd vote against him based on that alone...i mean where does he get his porn??? magazines?? what a noob
dik, you act like you know how to do more than go to Mucho.
at least i'm not gay..which is what you are..
At least I'm not old and own a faggy dog, which is what you are.
well biden is obama's vp and biden would make sure sites like this wouldn't be accessable under his net nuetrality bills he's been trying to pass
i'm spry and he's a masculine dog
*looks shocked*!
Your dog is the farthest thing from masculine and you are about as spry as drumrave. No offence, drumrave.
drumrave i don't know what you're talking about but if you're suggesting that joe biden will effect whether i can access mucho or not you're wrong
don't you ever say anything negative about my dog again irish
I didn't. He is proud of his sissy looks. I meant it in the most complimentary way possible.
Your dog breed is described on Pets4Homes as being a "white powder puff of a dog". Apparently Spanish sailors liked them as "companions". Personally I think they mis-spelled "fuck toys".
^Controversial
Wikipedia also has a very interesting item about Canadians and their Bichons
in south africa the bichon is know as ommbooga woogdoo (it means "pain from below") in mexico they're called ElDeatho
In America they are just refered to as "small faggy dogs that look like their facial fur is shit stained".
I see you've been using the wrong translation program again. The South African translation is actually "The white ball of fluff on the end of the dutchmans cock"
diks a dutchman ?
I read on Wiki that Bichons are the most common dog owned by old shut ins and used as sex toys.
Direct quote from Wiki:
"Rather strangely, this breed is used to transport beer by a few Canadians"
^true story
In southern France the bichon is sometimes called Le Morte Blanc (the white death)
the bichon is responsible for more deaths in north america than sharks
I also read that Bichons used to be brown but after generations of being ejaculated in, by their owners, they evolved into their white coloring.
You fags (except dik) need to get a better hobby.
diks lies are the best!
Hey dik, that's not fair. Sharks usually don't kill the people they bite.
because sharks are pussies compared to bichons...fact
the name Bichon Frise literally translated means "bringer of injuries"
Back to McCain not being computer illiterate. Didnt I hear all his fingers are pretty much fucked because of his time spent as a prisoner in Nam? Thats some harsh shit harking on a guy who cant type because his fingers are all fucked.
One more reason not to bring the cripple into office.
K-Billy, Fucked fingers or not, you can get by using only one or two fingers to type. Or even a stick duct taped to his hand. There's no excuse for a potential world leader to be computer illiterate.
Back on to the main subject. Dik you mis-spelled "Bringer of Sexual Joy To Sailors"
Bichons are pussies compared to everything, including pussies
rrrriiigggghhhhttt....
Stephen Hawking can still use a computer, what's McCain's excuse?
Stephen Hawking can also create a black hole by thinking really sexy thoughts of Scarlett Johansen.
Stephen Hawking has health envy.
listen to that dumbass. the qur an says to tolerate other religions. thats why al quida is called RADICALS because they go by their own beleifs
Ive realised tonight just what a fucking idiot we have running our country
Duh!
Really? Just now?
So who's the fucking idiot, again?
you only just realised that?
^Shit, meant to click reply.
we all make mistake, just look what 1rish1's parents did
I'm sure he'll be upset to see you say that :(
*yawn*
I guess not.
"we all make mistake"???
again, Duh!
combo is a douchebag that blach guy with the muttons didnt do nuthin to you!
wow look at all the people.....there gonna be so dissapointed...white america is deas ha!
