This thread is why I love Free Republic (so damn entertaining) and why I will NEVER donate or participate on a level beyond cyberspace.

Too many nutcases, polyster pant-wearing, gotnothingbettertodothanbitch posers, armchair political geniuses, closet militia "colonels", would-be revolutionaries, fat, pasty white-assed young punks with severe to fatal cases of sophomoric delusions of grandeur, crotchety old farts who make time between rants at zoning board meetings about the Magna Carta and the Natural Rights of Man to come on FR and tell us all we're really leftists if we don't support Buchanan, and stilleto pump wielding, vacant-eyed worshipers of all-things-Bush.

All in all, it's a hoot! Thanks for the laffs!

The obvious question: if you've never met anyone in person, how do you know?

At any rate, here is the character montage that goes with your soundtrack:

Hey, what's wrong with those types! :) Where I grew up in Vermont, if you went to a local Farm Bureau meeting, they'd spend have the night discussing U.S.-Soviet foreign policy. It was pretty cool. They had some interesting and creative ideas on how to use farm equipment to further foreign relations.
