  • Ads compare Bush to Hitler

    Yeah, that moveon.org is a bunch of $hit. My grandfather was forced to work for the German army during WWII. They gave him the choice of wearing a uniform to go out and fight American and allied forces, supporting the war effort by surrendering his trucking company to the nazi war effort, or go to the "work" camps. He was against war and killing and knew what went on in the camps, So he chose to give them all his trucks and work for them that way. They sentenced him to die in the camps twice, once for opposing the war effort and another for helping jews flee the country. He rebuilt his trucking company from scratch 3 times during the war and had it destroyed by the nazis every time. He was a determined man and a survivor and I honestly don't know how he survived those times....Comparing Bush to Hitler is a slap in the face even to educated Americans who are of German descent. Bush never murdered any of his fellow countrymen or set out on a conquest for world domination resulting in millions of lives lost. Moveon.org did more damage to themselves than they know.

    Maybe they're right. Maybe we should just pull out and bring our soldiers home. Maybe we should just vote for the democrats so Saddam can rebuild his army while they're in power and do nothing to stop it. I am sure Saddam is not too pissed off that we destroyed his army and his regime and embarassed him in front of the whole world for the second time in 10 years. I'm sure he's not that pissed at us for killing his 2 son's. Hell, we should just elect Hillary in to office, maybe the whole thing will just go away......untill the enemy arrives at our gates again.

    Horse Shit.

    I lost my job on Feb. 6th of this year. I did railroad maintenance for a company based out of Minnesota. We worked 80 to 100 hours a week and I made the most money I have ever made in my entire life there. The job was hard and always being on the road away from home really sucked too. My last boss was the biggest hypocrite asshole I have ever met and on top of the 14 hour days it just made it that much harder. I read earlier in this thread that a bad job can kill you quicker than being unemployed. That is so true.....
    I have just exhausted my unemployment benefits and am unable to look for work. I have been sick for the last 3 months with some kind of tonsil infection that refuses to go away. At first it was bacterial and then it turned Viral and just recently, I found out I had mono. The doc says I probably wont be able to do anything for the next 3 months until (if) I get better.
    I am just about broke and every day it hurts to get out of bed. I had to turn down a job doing some trucking because I was too sick to work. That really sucked because descent paying jobs in El Paso are almost nonexistent and getting a trucking company to hire me with my driving record was hard to do. I look in the newspaper and see jobs that require a masters degree and a minimum of 2 or 3 or 4...years experience and these jobs are only paying about $30,000/year. I am trying to get out of this town and maybe move to Seattle for a fresh start, but that is proving hard to do right now. Hell, maybe I'll write me a country music hit....
  • Suitcases Full of Cash On Plane (New Mexico)

    "Another suitcase filled with cellophane-wrapped cash was discovered in the front cargo area."

    Sometimes I think they train these dogs to sniff out cellophane not drugs or cash. I guess if you are going to be smuggling drugs or cash, it would be wise to use fresh cellophane/plastic bags, not something that you had your ham sandwich in earlier. On an unrelated note, just recently, along the US-Mexico border, 80 lbs. of illegal bolonga was seized. I bet that dog pissed himself when he found that. Thats probably the biggest illegal bolonga seizure this year. I guess customs hit the mother-load.
  • Babes Against Bush?? Give me a BREAK!!!

    "Michael Moore isn't a niche market per se, he's just the physical manifestation of what all liberals are inside...Lying, fat, lazy, slovenly, arrogant"

    AMEN!! Michael Moore is nothing more than a communist bastard. Anyone who travels to a foreign country (i.e. the U.K.) to rally against our president when he is traveling to that country to speak is a treasonous bastard and should be killed accordingly. If he doesn't like America, than he should get out and move to some place that suits his ways better, Like N. Korea. I saw his documentary "Bowling for Columbine" and it was the epitome of Liberal trash.

    As for babes against bush, I laughed my ass off when Sean asked her who the vice president was...She did not want to talk about her political views because she was probably too stupid to have any, or maybe they were for whoever paid her enough money to take her clothes off and pose for their calendar. They'll probably spell it Baibes Against Busch. Maybe they should call it Bimbos Against Bush.

    "Then, I heard someone on TV complain that neither of the officers attempted to give CPR when they noticed he wasn't breathing"

    I was watching the news and saw the tape. After a while in the lower left hand corner, you can see someone giving him CPR. I don't know if it was a cop though.

    "I'd have shot the bastard the minute he attacked my fellow officer"

    I would have done the same.

    People who kill 80 year old women in their homes should be put to death. I do think that he got what he deserved, but why should the taxpayers have to pay something like $71.50 for the chemicals for his lethal injection? $71.50!!! They should have just got a big rock, chained him to it and tossed him in a lake. That seems more fitting for his brutal crime against an eldery woman.

    Cost of chemicals for lethal injection: $71.50
    Cost of a big rock and some chain: Less than $71.50
