That was a fun day had my chair with golf clubs { I should of had an empty bag out there the man has no game} along the maindrag going to the spacecenter here on Merritt Island Fla, I must thank the democrat party for making this all possible. Remember the DNC opens in the morning, I'm on pins and needles, if they pray or no pray or it's going to be a color me liberal fun fest, I hear there will be alot of empty chairs, I guess they are going to play where's waldo obama.

[Oberon]

It's a little known fact that Obama helped end the American civil war, look you can see him to the right of General Lee.

He was also present at the signing of the Treaty of Versailles in 1919

He also spent time with the young Theodore Roosevelt:

Hung out with Winnie and FDR:

Fortunately for all of us, he still has time to help Captain Kirk keep peace for Earth and the Federation:

What a busy man Mr Obama is!

[Sailor Steve]

What a busy man Mr Obama is!
He even took the time to visit me. He brought his wife and Mr. Eastwood with him! I always sit in my computer chair, so I had plenty of room for them all.

Foolish old men who do not know when it is time to retreat and shut up. In Germany Peter Scholl-Latour and Helmut Schmidt whom I both held in high esteem for long time, but today just find ridiculous, and in America currently Clint Eastwood. He did not make himself a favour with that hilarious mumble stunt.

Old men like these just wear out like old shoes and do not realise when their brain desintegrates. You see it and are disgusted by the sight. But they themselves still consider themselves to be absolutely indispensible.

We all become old and wear out. The trick is to know when to retreat behind the stage curtain - AND STAY THERE.

Ladies and gentlemen, this is the state of American politics. :nope:

[Betonov]

Here's a small overview of politics inspired by a picture I posted in the funnies thread.

With all the political bickerign in GT the last few days, I just wanted to show you with this simple slideshow, that anyway you look at it, you're screwed like a helicopter.

Mr B, you obviously have no grasp of American politics. Let me 'splain it to you.

My Guy is not the best choice available, but he's the best we could come up with on a moment's notice, or with a year of diligent searching. If My Guy is elected he will accomplish little if anything at all, but at least he will keep the Hoards Of Evil at bay, or maybe just make me feel good that My Side won this time.

Their Guy is the devil incarnate. If he is (re) elected he will drive the country into economic and moral ruin and cause the death of everything We hold dear. He doesn't understand what The Founders meant and hates The Constitution.

A fine example of modern political rhetoric:

Forgive me for being an ignorant foreigner, Mr. S., but shouldn't you have added somewhere in there: "By the way, I'm an open minded, fair and balanced independent and think both parties are full of crooks"?

[Sailor Steve]

You really are an ignorant foreigner, Mr. H., or you would have observed by now that the correct statement is "By the way, I'm an open minded, fair and balanced independent, but Their Guy is WAY worse than My Guy!"

Brett Spiner of Star Trek fame tweeted,

"After watching Clint Eastwoods speech I am voting for the chair."

Me too, the chair was the only one to not come off like a rambling idjit.

Now there is some hope and change we can get behind! All I do is work, I want to sit!

The chair might have even won against Obama in a primary.

[yubba]

I didn't know Clint was 82 years old, well I did my part, in support of my childhood hero, and I'm glad us conseratives had some fun, that's what the American spirit is all about, I don't think you can steal enough from us, to crush us. US debt hit 16 trillion today. So are you better off now than you were 4 years ago.?????

[Takeda Shingen]

Here's some fun.

From the GOP's own website: http://www.gop.com/2012-republican-platform_Exceptionalism/#Item4

The current Administration***8217;s most recent National Security Strategy reflects the extreme elements in its liberal domestic coalition. It is a budget-constrained blueprint that, if fully implemented, will diminish the capabilities of our Armed Forces.

Dudez, I thought was was broke and couldn't not affort nuttin'. Now you want to spend more on bombz even 'dough Bamster got bin Laden. Dudez!

Here's some more fun: http://www.gop.com/2012-republican-platform_Exceptionalism/#Item25

Israel and the United States are part of the great fellowship of democracies who speak the same language of freedom and justice, and the right of every person to live in peace. The security of Israel is in the vital national security interest of the United States; our alliance is based not only on shared interests, but also shared values.

Dudez! Bamster kowtow'd to foreign nations. We need to fix 'dis by kowtowing to the needs of diff'rn't foreign nations!

And one more: http://www.gop.com/2012-republican-platform_Reforming/#Item15

To preserve our national security interests and foster innovation and competitiveness, we must sustain our preeminence in space, launching more science missions, guaranteeing unfettered access, and maintaining a source of high-value American jobs.

Dudez, 'Murikuh is flat-broke and gov'mnt jobs are badz. Bamster make 2 many gov'mnt jobz. Let's fix this my making lotz of gov'mnt jobs and spending lotz of money on a field trip to Kolob. Go 'Murikuh!!!1one.







See, there's always the other side. :D Here endeth the lesson.

They would have gotten away with it if it wasn't for you meddling kids.

You know Iran/Iraq/Afghanistan did WTC (Not the Saudi Nationals)

Someone has to punish them. (Not give their family a free ride out after 9-11, right Georgy the shrub?)

Neo-cons love to forget how many rights we lost after 9-11, and how huge government has grown since then, only when they realized how big it was, they blamed Obama. Even though Homeland security, patriot act, and the over-repressive Grandmother stripping, kiddie fiddling TSA came from Elephants.

But Obama is the poison? His only flaw was not repealing such conservative Orwellian measures.

Things that make you go Hmmm?
