(whore @ Feb. 06 2010,22:42) I actually think he is retarded.

I think that most guys here for the most part think that the other guy is retarded. The other guy is always wrong . Like Mr grumpy says " if you dont agree with me your plain wrong"

surely its not worth debating whether george dubya is retarded or not-even his friends must admit he's a little "slow"

(Tomcat @ Feb. 06 2010,22:38) Come on you Fox/Palin bashers , where are you. Stuck in the woodwork

I gave up on this thread a LONG time ago, TC!!

It strayed just a bit too far off the reservation for me to maintain any interest

Fair and balanced reporting Bill O'Reilly style.

For those quoting obscure verses of the Koran Google " biblical absurdities", and NO I haven't checked any of them, but like Fox (the spin begins here) they SOUND plausible.  

Dear Dr. Laura:

Thank you for doing so much to educate people regarding God's Law. I have learned a great deal from your show, and try to share that knowledge with as many people as I can. When someone tries to defend the homosexual lifestyle, for example, I simply remind them that Leviticus 18:22 clearly states it to be an abomination. ... End of debate.

I do need some advice from you, however, regarding some other elements of God's Law and how to follow them.

1. When I burn a bull on the altar as a sacrifice, I know it creates a pleasing odor for the Lord -- Lev.1:9. The problem is my neighbors. They claim the odor is not pleasing to them. Should I smite them?

2. I would like to sell my daughter into slavery, as sanctioned in Exodus 21:7. In this day and age, what do you think would be a fair price for her?

3. I know that I am allowed no contact with a woman while she is in her period of menstrual uncleanliness -- Lev.15: 19-24. The problem is how do I tell? I have tried asking, but most women take offense.

4. Lev. 25:44 states that I may indeed possess slaves, both male and female, provided they are purchased from neighboring nations. A friend of mine claims that this applies to Mexicans, but not Canadians. Can you clarify? Why can't I own Canadians?

5. I have a neighbor who insists on working on the Sabbath. Exodus 35:2. The passage clearly states he should be put to death. Am I morally obligated to kill him myself?

6. A friend of mine feels that even though eating shellfish is an abomination - Lev. 11:10, it is a lesser abomination than homosexuality. I don't agree. Can you settle this? Are there "degrees" of abomination?

7. Lev. 21:20 states that I may not approach the altar of God if I have a defect in my sight. I have to admit that I wear reading glasses. Does my vision have to be 20/20, or is there some wiggle room here?

8. Most of my male friends get their hair trimmed, including the hair around their temples, even though this is expressly forbidden by Lev.19:27. How should they die?

9. I know from Lev. 11:6-8 that touching the skin of a dead pig makes me unclean, but may I still play football if I wear gloves?

10. My uncle has a farm. He violates Lev. 19:19 by planting two different crops in the same field, as does his wife by wearing garments made of two different kinds of thread (cotton/polyester blend). He also tends to curse and blaspheme a lot. Is it really necessary that we go to all the trouble of getting the whole town together to stone them? -- Lev.24:10-16. Couldn't we just burn them to death at a private family affair like we do with people who sleep with their in-laws? (Lev. 20:14)

I know you have studied these things extensively and thus enjoy considerable expertise in such matters, so I am confident you can help. Thank you again for reminding us that God's word is eternal and unchanging.

Your adoring fan,

James M. Kauffman, Ed.D. Professor Emeritus Dept. of Curriculum, Instruction, and Special Education University of Virginia

(whore @ Feb. 06 2010,23:34)

Whore, where in the Koran does it tell Muslims to kills non-believers?

Surah 9:5 verse  

9:5 When the sacred months are over slay the idolaters wherever you find them. Arrest them, besiege them, and lie in ambush everywhere for them. If they repent and take to prayer and render the alms levy, allow them to go their way. God is forgiving and merciful.


Well done whore! George would be proud of your research skills.

I'd never read this before, but in saying that I do have a life!

An idolater would mean a worshiper of idols. I guess that means they gotta leave atheists and agnostics alone huh?

[smuttleydfs]

Whore's translation of the Koran and the Bible is almost, not completely, but almost as hilarious as (ts)crazy's revisionist history

[Tralala777]

And some people want her to be President......



The world is gobsmacked!

[JaiDee]

Never saw that short clip, that was pretty good!

well, what do you expect, for a possible presidential contender to remember that we need to reign in spending? I mean damn, that is some hard shit to keep in your head!! Although my child knew it when she was 9 or 10; reign in that spending or you don't get your next allowance.

Again, going back to the theme of this thread..... anyone who watches the FOX comedy channel; do you really want this freaking retard giving you an analysis of the news? Or, running your country??

Sarah Palin: Talk Talk Talkin' Revolution
http://www.opednews.com/article....96.html
Kellie bean February 7, 2010

As she addressed the Tea Party convention this week, it became apparent that Sarah Palin is the talkin'-est woman in politics. Not to mention confused, mean-spirited, and kinda dumb. From cribbed answers on her hand to mangled grammar to Miss America hair, the woman embodies a movement grounded in ignorance and backward thinking.

Palin endorses a movement proud to call for a return to Jim Crow laws, that places spunk above political experience, and sees truck ownership as a necessary qualification to hold public office. This folksy fun is a lie, of course. Palin is plainly seeking to acquire wealth and influence, to join that very class--politicians--she claims to dislike so much. But lies are Palin's stock in trade. She lies about her administration in Alaska, about taking stimulus money, about foreign policy experience, hell, she lied about which magazines she reads. Even in the most benign situations, Ms. Palin cannot seem to summon the truth. Often, she simply does not know it. (Supreme court rulings, anyone?)

But Palin is talking her way into, if not real power, then celebrity and wealth. The more she complains about the "lamestream media" the more it covers her and increases her earnings potential. She rails against the "talk talk talk" of the pundits, but without them she'd be invisible and back in Alaska, forced to serve the people who put her into office. Instead, she serves herself.


And those who follow her will not be served by her. She works for herself, spending, for example, tens of thousands of dollars of her PAC money buying her own book to create the lie of writing a "best seller." Those supporting her need a better economy, more jobs, greater access to health care, tax cuts. Palin can promise only greater access to herself, her ambition and, of course, her talk talk talkin'.

Palin has disabused herself of all accountability. She no longer has to trouble herself with governing, with carefully considering her actions, making decisions. She talks; that's it. She produces nothing. She arrives, waves, talks, collects her money, and leaves. She is a member of the money-grubbing, talking head community she says she hates. She practices the very hypocrisy she identifies in others by making her living doing the very thing she rails most against: complaining and not doing. Ms. "we hunt because we eat" now has a staff, schedulers, handlers, and a bloated book contract. Her earnings (it is reported) have skyrocketed into the eight figure range this year.

Her politics of plain, truck-drivin' folk have become increasingly transparent and down right reckless. This week she called for a "revolution," and asked her audience to join her. Again, gleeful in her ignorance, Ms. Palin seems not to know that historically citizens suffer, kill and die when conducting a revolution. But of course leaders, those fomenting revolution, often do quite well.

Let's hope, for her sake and those following her, that she can't talk talk talk an actual revolution into existence.

Where to start? I misseda couple of days and there are some interesting responses to my rantings !

strocube: I give you a lot of credit for not being a phoney. Even though i completely disagree with your politics. I think you are in a very small group of people who not been blinded bushhatred. I applaud you for having some grasp of reality - hoever slight ...LOL

smuttleydfs: check out video footage during Obama' campaign. He did say 9/2009 as the withdrawel date from Iraq. In fact he said it repeatedly - until he got sworn in and realized that campign rhetoric is far different from the realities of running the country. No surpirse to me that you went to the university of Michigan: training ground for the far the crazy far left and socialists ....

tomscam: A slight inaccuracy in your comment about Britain having ended its colonial empire. there is a small group of islands off Argentina that I should remind you of. The Malvinas, ok the Falkland Islands, is a vestage of the British Empire. All talks between Argentina about sovereignty have been off the table. True, probably 95% of the popluation (slightly more than beofre the Falkland War) is British -- but in no way does that diminsh the fact that it is still a colonial holding. Relations with South America still has not recovered completely from that conflict in 80's. And the Brits are not alone: don;t forget Aruba and the Dutch

Hell, but what can I say about someone who would actually quote Michael Moore one of the richest peoople in America and one of the phoniest. BTW - he bashes corporatism, but is a huge investor in corporate America. He could by a lot of running shoes for poor children. All profits from his movies should go to the poor - but we will never see that ! He could never compare to Angelina Jolie who immediately spent a ton of money (wasn't it like a million?) to help Haiti?

Although, I have to agree with your opinion on Israel. Most of the orthodox jews have increased tensions to the breaking point. Making it worse is the money that crazy evangelical christians have pumped into their cause because they want to spark a war to bring about Armegedon. Yea, the world is full of nuts.

whore: wow - someone who is actually rational and lucid ! I completely agree with you. For the very start of the Muslim faith they believed in forced conversion of the infidels. the Jihadist Muslim's don't need GITMO, are stupid meddling in the middle east, our support for Israel, our addiction door oil anything else for them them to hate us. They also hate other Muslims who don't agree with them.

I hadn't seen this before.....its more frightening lunarcy.....

SHE IS FUCKING BARKING MAD!!!!!!

[JaiDee]

seen that one, it's fabulous..... I am tellin' ya, this bimbo is the best thing that has happened to the democratic party in history!

the extremely sad thing is that there is a hardcore group of american zealots who take her seriously, and even one fake-news network who added her as an analyst. These people, and that network, apparently don't get the joke like the rest of us do?

Check the banner behind her while she is being interviewed by that tiger Katie Couric {whom she later claimed ''ambushed'' her LOL}; Country First - that was the McCain-Palin slogan in 2008......so big Mac, if you kicked during your 4 years this waitress with bad hair would've been our president?

Yups, I'd say that is putting ''country first''!

If you want to see how the Palin side "thinks".

Its no wonder Americans are percieved as stupid by the rest of the English speaking world.Where else could an Alzeihmer sufferer become president(Reagan)?Where else could a borderline retard become president(george dubya) Where else would morons like Palin ever hold public office,but in America? What about "joe the plumber?" Is he still a political commentator? C'mon Yanks,tell me where else could these people get anywhere near power?
