You admired your dog, Boots, who refused to be enslaved. But, there you are---still sitting around a dead bird.

". And oh yeah, could we at least consider a moratorium on the dead-bird tradition?

How about getting up from that table and form a "'Shoot and Release' Be Kind to Animals Society"?

Sir, you should be down on your knees thanking God that our country is led by President Bush rather than by President Gore. In case you missed it, a recent correspondence from al Queada claimed that Clinton's disgraceful behavior in the Oval Office warranted their attack on America. Can you honestly say that you want this man leading us during a time of war/attack:

I know a great story about a trashy family that all got pretty sick after they had their Thanksgiving buzzard about 25 years ago.

ROFL!!! Hint to the ornithologically challenged: Turkey Buzzard != Turkey. They don't even look that much alike unless you're blind drunk and have a shoe-size IQ. And buzzard != bustard, either!

I suppose those black feathers and bald head screamed out "Turkey!" through cheap whiskey goggles.

Come on now. Tell the class why you don't have health insurance. You are quick to gripe but slow to back it up.

Back it up? You expect a liberal to back up anything he says? They can't back it up. They have no evidence. They have no facts.

They have only hate.

" That dog taught me a lot about perseverance, of fighting for freedom. He refused to be a slave."

You don't know what Freedom is and you can't even recognize clues. Your entire piece is a rant, completely full of slanderous lies, that trash other people that have refused to become your slaves. You're a propagandist for the left and complaining about other people that don't give you control, over the enterprise and wealth they've created, is all you can do.

Your enterprise is to collect emotionally gullible sheep and herd them to the D switch on election day and to the periodic riots you people invoke, when you don't get your own way. You are otherwise impotent, as in the note on your graphic. It's not just that you feel that way.

Keep your hands off my dinner.

Dear Poor Misguided Soul;

I didn't have the patience to read the whole dreadful thing, so I will just have to be satisfied with picking apart your opening paragraph. My gag tolerance wouldn't allow me to read any further. I admire my fellow FReepers whose experience in dealing with people like you has built their tolerance up. I, however, am not of such vast expertise.

During my 1980s peace activist days

Since there wasn't really any American war going on then, I would have to say this is a vieled "When I was a lazy non-working puke"

, my mom made the mistake

You don't say !!

of letting me say grace before one Thanksgiving meal.

This is a misnomer, my friend. What you said certainly wasn't grace. More like anti-grace.

I’ve never been one to just mindlessly repeat some prayer drummed into my head in Sunday school class - that’s way too uncreative.

So what you are saying is that your parents forced your sorry butt to go to church, where you never learned the traits of gratefullness and appreciated for the care of others in your life. And your smart aleck response was a vain attempt to defer the twinge of guilt you felt at the time, although apparently your conscience and sense of thankfulness has long since died.

So I thought hard and came up with something like this: "God, thank you for letting us live in a country where we have the freedom to sit around a dead bird trying to think of things we’re thankful for, as many people around us lose their jobs and homes and can’t carry out this dead-bird tradition."

And you ought to be thankful that God didn't strike your sorry butt down at the time for such a high-handed demeanor. You fail to recognize, even now I bet, that you were talking to Almighty God at that time, and you will have to answer for it in the last day. My advice to you: Jesus said " I tell you, unless you repent, you shall all likewise perish"

Sincerely, BSunday

Do you have one single original thought?

Oh - wait - I just remembered your screen name. Never mind. You couldn't have a thought, let alone one that was original.

Yes, now I remember! Thanks for prodding my memory, it has been 26 years since I took "Micro 242 -- Disease and Immunity" in College. (Don't be concerned, I don't work in the medical field). I stand corrected.

No, I think "Disease and Immunity" fits pretty well for disinfecting us from this liberal ranter... LOL

It would be more impressive if he could write something of his own, rather than copying from others and trying to pass it off as his own. But then, that's the liberal way.

Hey - DPL - doesn't bother you to be using the Internet? After all, it's a product of the military industrial complex, despite Algore's claim to have invented it.
