Posted on 09/16/2005 7:33:26 PM PDT by When do we get liberated?

Just wanted to share with some of you something that happened early this month. This requires some background. I have no liscense (Not a drunk, I just drive like aan idiot) and I get a ride 35 miles each way to work and back, 75% of the time by a married couple who have been friends of mine for several years. We were friends before they morphed into Michael Moore's stepchildren. The husband is more muted, certainly with the same belief structure but not as radical. The wife thinks it was wrong to attack Iraq...AND Afghanistan. The falling debris from the world towers should have been transformed into a shower of taxpayer funded aid missions. When we wander into politics I have to bite my tongue and keep the temperature down in the car or I may lose my friend and my job. There is no public transportation outside Raleigh, unless you count $130 a day in cab fare. Driving home one night with the two of them she starts telling me about her ethics class where she learned "moral isolationism" which says that nobody from our culture can say that anything is right or wrong about any other culture, because what they do is right in their way. We have not lived in that culture so we cannot judge, by any means, others to be wrong in any way. I shut up and ignored it as I knew it would be a long, irritating drive home if I did anything else. We got to my house and I flipped ibn the T.V. it was the anniversary of the Beslan School Massacre. I left it on for nearly a full hour until it was over. In detail the takeover, rigging of bombs to women, random killings et al. All told by the schoolchildren. One child somewhat calmy described his father's head being blown apart by a machine gun round after the terrorists blew the gymnasium apart without provocation. He remembers hoping that the terminator would come and save them. 40 odd minutes of that in excrusiating detail was truely horrifying to and human with a sense of right and wrong. When the credits rolled, I changed the channel and said, very calmly and soothingly,"Not that they did anything wrong there. They were right in their own way." .................................................................................................................. SILENCE FROM A LIBERAL

I would truly like to see an MRI of a liberal's brain. There has to be a lot of space in there.

These libs can't be reasoned with, so you are right to remain silent even though you are burning up inside. I know, I've been there. My husband will never let me respond because I get really mad. I got so mad at one of my son's teenage friends last year before the election that I almost threw him out of my house. He just loves to push my buttons. Of course, I should have acted like a grown up, but I was worried about the election at the time and was under pressure. I really rubbed it in his craw after the election, but he really didn't care who won. He is just a kid and I love the little toot.

I disagree. Stupid posts happen, and trolls post stupid stuff as well.

Why not expose the idiocy and have a bit of fun?

Meek seems to have dissapeared. Darkwing104 runs the ZOT ping list now.

Because it has ceased to be funny (and did so after the first maybe 30 times it was done). It now smacks of silliness that is there for lack of a better response.

Few things more fun than seeing trolls get ZOTTED. Besides why debate liberals when all they do is whine? Better to make fun of them and ZOT them.

Thanks for the info. I wonder where Meek went?

Darkwing, I was on Meek's VK ping list. I guess it is no more. May I please be on your VK ping list? Pretty please??

I've had a similar (although much less deadly) experience with camel crickets.


Camel Crickets are not only really ugly, they have a painful bite. It sent this 8 yr. old(took place many decades ago)screaming into the house with the little bugger still attached, where my great aunt whacked it with a frying pan, breaking 2 of my fingers. To stop my crying, she gave me a couple glasses of wine, for medicinal purposes. Of course, I eventually threw up all over myself. Just in time for my mom to walk in the door. My great aunt just looked at her and said "He got bit".

Thank you! I love the zot threads.<Shadow, a little levity helps break up the day. If we can't be silly we are gonna end up looking like Uncle Teddy or Algore. I do not want to look like Teddy! LOL

LOL...

I had no idea the ugly litter buggers bit. They look nasty or maybe just odd... sort of like a cross between a cricket, a wasp, and a spider. Never thought they could bite. I even picked one up once while chasing it around my basement. Thanks for the tale. That last quote made milk come out of my nose. (and I'm not even drinking milk!)

"I flipped ibn the T.V. it was the anniversary of the Beslan School Massacre. I left it on for nearly a full hour until it was over. In detail the takeover, rigging of bombs to women, random killings et al. All told by the schoolchildren."

I made a graphic/video when the "Koran Desecration" was the main story in the media. It involved the Koran being used as a pressure release detonator by the lead terrorist in the Beslan school. Here it is for those that missed it:
