Are we at each other's throats? :-)

I love FreeRepublic!

[Howlin]

What list is that, "Short Timers?"

[SittinYonder]

Check out eyespysomething's profile page ... down at the very bottom. She has a fitting name!

[Howlin]

Oh, I think I know what it is; I'll look. Thanks.

I love Michelle Malkin. I pray that America's first female president is someone like her and not someone like Hillary.

Bump for later read.

Surprise? Why would I be surprised? I read what she wrote. And I read what you wrote.

You're either lying, or you're stupid. If you really understood what I wrote in the first place, you wouldn't have reacted as if I was -- using YOUR words -- "calling Peach a 'faux Christian'" because I wasn't. I was countering her paranoiac idea that everyone that isn't as loose with the laughs as she and you are must be trolls sent by the DNC to divide the frequenters of FR.

What doesn't surprise me is that I asked you a direct question and here you are once again bashing Peach.

"Direct question"? You "asked" me a sarcastic rhetorical question that was intended to be a put-down. That makes your post all the more puzzling; I would have thought you would have recognized sarcasm when you read it.

And I don't get morally superior rushes: I'm one of the ones who actually can comprehend the fact that I'm fallable and not perfect, unlike some of you who don't seem to accept the fact that others have different religious views than you do.

Oops! You did it again! There goes another one! You look flush, Howlin! ;)

I am really, honestly interested in knowing the answer to this: Why you think you people like me think we're infallible and perfect just because we don't appreciate or aren't used to barnyard humor? And that's NOT a rhetorical question!

You might want to clean that one up a little before you expect him to answer.

Lemme try that again: Why do you think people like me think we're infallible and perfect just because we don't appreciate (or aren't used to) barnyard humor?

All the more evidence of my fallibility.

[L.N. Smithee]

Darn! I was hoping no one would notice before I corrected it. As Max Smart used to say, "Missed it by that much."

[SittinYonder]

:-) Sorry, I just can't wait to read the answer ...

[L.N. Smithee]

I hope one actually comes. I ain't holding my breath.

Laura Bush isn't a South Park conservative either.

Methinks Michelle is a bit too uptight.

[backhoe]

Michael Savage is a disgusting disgrace to humanity, as is Rush, as is Sean Hannity, as are all the chumps on Air America. Sean Hannity is particularly repugnant.

How do, member #207195... did you join just to drop that little bomb on us?

[68 grunt]

... Why ...don't appreciate or aren't used to barnyard humor? ...

That is not the point. Many of us might agree with you to a point, but when its viciously used to attack the first lady, and the administration in general it crosses a line. When you think we're attacking Christians, we find it very frustrating because we feel we're attacking whackjob needlebutts. Not all Christians are whackjob needlebutts, and I resent the association. That doesn't stop y'all from perpetuating it, though.

Let me say it... I tried to watch the Mr. Garison sex-change episode the other night. South Park is cartoon porn in the worst taste. It's like a big, steaming pile and someone's pointing out "Hey we know what it is, but there's a conservative message in there somewhere.".

Hey, y'all enjoy, but it's more than my stomach can handle.

Malkin has proven she's not cut out to be a social commentator. She should stick to issues she's not so wobbly with.

[muir_redwoods]

There is no sense without a sense of humor. If one cannot laugh at even the most absurd things one is destined for unhappiness.

The key is learning to laugh at oneself. Once one has learned to do that, one has grown up without growing old.

[ovrtaxt]

I for one agree with Michelle on this. Pop culture is relentlessly stupid, and the ascendancy of conservative talk show hosts and writers is approaching the point of a virtual anti-Hollywood, except that it may get just as vapid and self indulgent as the real thing.

Michelle is speaking prophetically here. All you detractors had better listen.

[BigSkyFreeper]

I can see you're as big an ass as ever. A lot of other freepers are noting that as well, I see from this thread.

You and who else? Face it, we've [FR] been down this road before.
