We’re Not in Lake Wobegon Anymore ( anti-Republican/Bush barf alert )

We’re Not in Lake Wobegon Anymore How did the Party of Lincoln and Liberty transmogrify into the party of Newt Gingrich’s evil spawn and their Etch-A-Sketch president, a dull and rigid man, whose philosophy is a jumble of badly sutured body parts trying to walk?

[Americanwolf]

Maybe my immediate pack mates, but to most wolves (read terrorist. for or liberal friends understanding.) world wide I am nothing. They are only concerned about themselves.

Believe it or not, it really does make sense to keep the gap between the richest countries of the world and the poorest countries to a minimum.

The best way to accomplish this, indeed the only way to accomplish this, is for those "poorer countries" to display the same respect for the rights of the individual, particularly including property rights, that we have here. At least, that most of us have here, to be sure we have our share of wackos.

As long as this does not happen, productive wealth will not be safe in those nations. The only way to minimize this gap will be wealth transfer from the richer nations to the governments of the poorer nations. I said "governments" on purpose...the pockets of those in power is where it will end up.

This is certain to cause economic stagnation and further political corruption. No thanks.

bump!

I might just have to hunt you all down. I would prefer terrorists to be extinct rather than just endangered.

and tax cuts for the comfy

Tax cuts for the comfy?

Everyone please take note of this, it is no longer only "the rich" they are going after but "the comfy". This includes those of us who may not make a lot but are wise and prudent in our handling of what we have.

Do you save 10% tithe 10% and spend the rest with thanksgiving? You now have a bullseye painted on you no matter if you earn $20,000 a year. They will take from you until you are "not comfy" any longer.

Liberals want all of us to be miserable. Hey, I think I have come up with a new slogan for Kerry!

"For a more miserable America. Vote The Johns!"

[scott0347]

Here is your sign too

[Petronski]

Hate hate hate. Keillor's bubbling over with hate.

He has nothing to offer but ad hominem attacks.

Stay tuned film at 11!

Hello, I'm Marlin Perkins. My assistant Jim Fowler will now approach the hungry wolf pack armed only with a single shot tranquilizer gun. I will monitor from here across the river in my Land Rover.

Look out Jim there are 10 of them behind you!

[Lady Jag]

That is SO WRONG!   Redistribution of wealth is one of the factors that fueled terrorism in the first place.   Saudi Arabia, when we set them up to harvest their oil, every Saudi Arabian became filthy rich.   Now, just a few generations later, all the money is back with those that had it before and the poor are poor again.

There are many instances of that throughout history and if you don't know history, don't make any new plans, Neseattle.

Photobucket is having issues today.

NESTLE?
Is that you?

"Marlin, Jim won't be joining you any longer."

--The Wolf

Marlin Perkins considers a change in jobs.

Film at 11!

ok maybe 1130pm it is a little graphic

[Conspiracy Guy]

I think Marlin's survivors found out if his Mutual of Omaha Life Insurance policy was any good years ago. The Dodo was only endangered when Marlin was a young man. Jim is still around.

[Lady Jag]

Uh, did you FORGET...

Right! They don't crap about what's going on but they have a stWrONG opinion.
