My faith in the American (republican) people from this point on will forever be tarnished beyond repair.
(last straw factor)

Those that are not Republicans, I sympathies with your malaise and lack of fight to expel this monolith of tyranny that strives to push the average man down and subjugate you for their own benefit. I urge you to rise up and fight that power that enslaves you, laughs at you and sucks you dry.

You are the only ones who can rise up against this virus of humanity that has taken hold. It's your rights, your country. If you want to be a patriot, then fight for your country. Fight from within and fight to cleanse your own system before looking outside your borders for a fight.

You owe it to yourselves - you own it to all of us.

Edit: Sorry to have ranted - the neurons fired and I just went with it.

Sadly it isn't.

Since I'm not from the USA I try not to discuss the politics from your country. I think I don't know the full context and how the American citizen feels as much as I don't think you would know what European politics "feels" like... But when you see stuff like this, I ask myself, how could anybody, I mean ANYBODY tolerate such policies.
Like Cenk says "The republican party is a national embarrassment."
I would fix that to "The republican party is an international embarrassment."

Good luck next election...

I really hope/wish this is from the Onion...

I really appreciated the "oh, F#ck off!" at the end of Cenk's rant. Mostly because it was directed at Dems for not going after this BS.

I'm sure if you present it as a choice between "knowledge" (in line with what religious parents believe) and critical-thinking skills, the parents would vote for the former.

"Good luck next election..."

Sadly people will still vote for them. Cause they follow the same religious beliefs. During bushes reelection that was a driving force for people and we got four more years.

Bled Dry by Econochrist year 1993


what you call success i call failure
make us suffer for your luxury
but i can live on what you throw away
you are a slave to what you own
you are a slave to your selfishness
your greediness, your decadence x2
you bleed the world dry
the elite bled the world dry x2
for you too much is never enough
you horde all the wealth at our expense
you have too much when others dont have shit
gouge a profit from our basic rights
others poverty makes you rich
will we accept x3
but will we accept it
you bleed the world dry
the elite bleed the world dry x2
i doubt that i will live to see you fall
but i will not give you the pleasure
of groveling at your feet
what you offer i dont want
your power is not legitimate
but will we swallow
just want us to be quiet
dont want us to speak
dont want us to stand
dont even want us to dream
of justice x4

Prediction: the right-wing element will make "critical thinking" a swear word like they've already done with "liberal" and "socialized", and any time anybody applies critical thinking, Fox merely has to point it out, and then that argument is de facto demolished.

Don't conservative Texans want to secede? Then GET THE FUCK OUT.
(Blunt? Yes. I've got no time for this kind of asinine bullshit.)


If they do secede, does that mean we have to build another big fence along the Texas border?
