Balta1701 Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 QUOTE (lostfan @ Aug 6, 2009 -> 02:52 PM) The protesters feel like they have a right to shout down town hall meetings, and they do, but someone needs to tell them they look and sound like screaming f***ing idiots and their overall contribution to the dialogue is less than worthless. They're doing their job. The media has been able to easily portray this as a "Populist anti-Obama uprising". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lostfan Posted August 7, 2009 Share Posted August 7, 2009 QUOTE (ChiSox_Sonix @ Aug 7, 2009 -> 09:34 AM) Kind of like "change"? Yes, but worse. There is no tradition of "change" in this country but there is a tradition of "freedom" and everyone knew what it meant until about 2003. Now the word makes me cringe.

StrangeSox Posted August 8, 2009 Share Posted August 8, 2009 (edited) Beck equates Stem Cells and Eugenics. Beck: This is what bothers me. When we are -- when we put science in front of ethics, we start having a bunch of people walking around -- especially progressive scientists -- walking around in little white coats and talking about, 'Hey, we could make the master race. Why don't we go ahead and use eugenics?' That happened in America with progressives and science, when they decided that we can make people better, and they took out all of the ethics. I mean, what's to say, when we don't attach principles and ethics to things, that this just doesn't go off the road? BECK: So here you have Barack Obama going in and spending the money on embryonic stem cell research, and then some, fundamentally changing – remember, those great progressive doctors are the ones who brought us Eugenics. It was the progressive movement and it science. Let’s put science truly in her place. If evolution is right, why don’t we just help out evolution? That was the idea. And sane people agreed with it! And it was from America. Progressive movement in America. Eugenics. In case you don’t know what Eugenics led us to: the Final Solution. A master race! A perfect person. …. The stuff that we are facing is absolutely frightening. So I guess I have to put my name on yes, I hope Barack Obama fails. But I just want his policies to fail; I want America to wake up. I'll quote the person I got this from: "Calling this "bats*** insane" would be an unwarranted slander of bats and their s***, so I don't know what to call it."

lostfan Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 (edited) Kind of long read for the small text, but view full size and lol. Cleaned up and slightly modified. This morning I was awakened by my alarm clock powered by electricity generated by the public power monopoly regulated by the US Department of Energy. I then took a shower in the clean water provided by the municipal water utility. After that, I turned on the TV to one of the FCC regulated channels to see what the national weather service of the National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration determined the weather was going to be like using satellites designed, built, and launched by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration. I watched this while eating my breakfast of US Department of Agriculture inspected food and taking the drugs which have been determined as safe by the Food and Drug Administration. At the appropriate time as regulated by the United States Congress and kept accurate by the National Institute of Standards and Technology and the US Naval Observatory, I get into my National Highway Traffic Safety Administration approved automobile and set out to work on the roads built by the local, state, and federal departments of transportation, possibly stopping to purchase additional fuel of a quality level determined by the Environmental Protection Agency, using legal tender issued by the Federal Reserve Bank. On the way out the door I deposit any mail I have to be sent out via the US Postal Service and drop the kids off at the public school. After work, I drive my NHTSA car back home on the DOT roads, to my house which has not burned down in my absence because of the state and local building codes and fire marshal’s inspection, and which has not been plundered of all its valuables thanks to the local police department. I then log onto the internet which was developed by the Defense Advanced Research Projects Administration and post on freerepublic.com and Fox News forum about how SOCIALISM is BAD because the government can’t do anything right.

BigSqwert Posted August 12, 2009 Share Posted August 12, 2009 Bachmann's Son Joins Government Re-Education Camp Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-MN) may now have additional reason to fear the Obama Administration, the Star Tribune reports: Her son Harrison Bachmann has now joined Teach For America -- part of the dreaded AmeriCorps! You might recall that Bachmann said four months ago of Americorps funding that it constituted "re-education camps" run by the Democrats -- and that she worried about her own children being signed up: And the real concern is that there are provisions for what I would call re-education camps for young people, where young people have to go and get trained in a philosophy that the government puts forward and then they have to go and work in some of these politically correct forums. It's very concerning. It appears that there's a philosophical agenda behind all of this, and especially if young people are mandated to go into this. As a parent, I would have a very, very difficult time seeing my children do this. Again, a huge power-grab, at a cost of billions of dollars. This was first sniffed out three weeks ago by our friends at Dump Bachmann, and now confirmed by the Strib. How could it get any worse? Will one of her other children completely fill out the family's Census form? LINK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
