MJ: When was the last time that a belief in the system paid off?

TK: It was the day they got that ******* Ten Commandments monument out of Alabama. I found that thrilling. With all the blows that the Bush administration has delivered to the separation of church and state -- we have a president who can't stop talking about his relationship to Jesus while he gleefully murders thousands of people -- it turns out that we still kind of get it.

Oops! I forgot to bleep out the profanity! Sorry. Still, the interview offers another revealing insight into the mindset of some very weird people...

INTREP - ULTIMATE IDIOT ALERT

"TK: I think the country is undereducating its young. I think it's a deliberate, designed, malevolent project by the right to destroy public education. People are more easily manipulated when they don't have information. If you ensure that kids grow up without basic reading skills, math skills, and so forth, then you ensure that they can't act effectively."

The right is destroying public education?!?!?!????


Ah, ha,ha,ha ,ha. Please stop!!! Ahy, ha,ha,ha,ha,ha,ha.
This is hilarious!!!

"we have a president who can't stop talking about his relationship to Jesus while he gleefully murders thousands of people"

Once you get past this simpleton's definition of murder, you still don't know if it is allright with him if a Christian child can grow up to be the President of the United States.
