Looks like a collection of all the losers in school uniting to take revenge on the rest of us.
Oh yeah, that pretty much describes the Liberal Democrat party, doesn’t it?
I want Teddy to rake my front lawn and Zero’s illegal aunt to paint my house.
Does Mich ever smile or is that a permanent scowl?
"Look here negro, you may think you own this country..."
Hate and anger will do that to you
“Hey, Barry...wanna go out for a sandwich?”
"...or we could go out for a drink... I'll drive.
I’ll serve only if I can be a driver and wear a Ted Kennedy mask. “Where to today, Miss Daisy?”
There is the tranny Michelle with a dip in its mouth again.
Fat Ted: "This pen was the only thing I managed to save when I nearly died from a car wreck when my ride went into the drink..."
"I'd like to thank Bill Clinton for this special cigar. It smells kind of funny though."
Remember when the Left was poo-pooing the results of the Iraq war saying that Democracy isn’t for everyone?
They’ve managed to bring that agenda to this country to, the end of opportunity.
Speaking of "service" you think you could come back to my place after this?
The Swimmer: "C'mon! Don't leave me hangin'! FIST BUMP! FIST BUMP!!!"
Don "No Soul" Simmons Gets Down And Funky...
When they said democracy is not for everyone they meant it’s not for them.
They can and will reduce Western Civilization to rubble as long as they feel assured that they'll be the ones sitting on top of the rubble heap. For monsters like that, the slaughter of millions is not too small a price to pay. Rediculous, you say?
Remember Walter Duranty, Pulitzer Prize-winning 'reporter' for - wait for it - the New York times? Ralph Barnes, a New York Herald Tribune reporter, at one point turned to Duranty and asked him what he was going to write about the (Stalin-caused) famine occurring in Russia at the time. Duranty replied:
Nothing. What are a few million dead Russians in a situation like this? Quite unimportant. This is just an incident in the sweeping historical changes here. I think the entire matter is exaggerated.
Then there's Eric Hobsbawm, noted, celebrated British historian. He has been lionized as 'one of the great historians of our time'. In an interview with Canadian author and politician Michael Ignatieff on British television in 1994, Hobsbawm responded to the question of whether 20 million deaths [in the old Soviet Union] may have been justified if the proposed communist utopia had been created as a consequence by saying "yes."
Now, there is every indication that the power of the American State now lies in the hands of those whose pedigree of ideas includes not only excuses but the necessity for inflicting mass-murder, misery and slavery on a scale that beggars the imagination. None of these ideas are mere fantasy, as any of Pol Pot's, Mao's or Stalin's victims could attest. Except that they can't, you know. They're all dead.
Finally, let's get to the heart of what Obama and his ilk really want. Eric Blairs, writing as George Orwell back in the 1940's understood our present-day rulers' motivations all too well:
'Now I will tell you the answer to my question. It is this. The Party seeks power entirely for its own sake. We are not interested in the good of others; we are interested solely in power. Not wealth or luxury or long life or happiness: only power, pure power.What pure power means you will understand presently. We are different from all the oligarchies of the past, in that we know what we are doing. All the others, even those who resembled ourselves, were cowards and hypocrites. The German Nazis and the Russian Communists came very close to us in their methods, but they never had the courage to recognize their own motives. They pretended, perhaps they even believed, that they had seized power unwillingly and for a limited time, and that just round the corner there lay a paradise where human beings would be free and equal.
We are not like that. We know that no one ever seizes power with the intention of relinquishing it. Power is not a means, it is an end. One does not establish a dictatorship in order to safeguard a revolution; one makes the revolution in order to establish the dictatorship.
The object of persecution is persecution.
The object of torture is torture.
The object of power is power.George Orwell - 1984
