“The Rethugs should change their party mascot from an elephant to the ouroboros.

I think this is the real lesson for this campaign year- the rethugs devouring themselves.

Hopefully they will split in 2012 just like they did here and we can finally defeat ignorance and fear.

But then again...”

“A better plan is for a few states to secede from the federal system. That way honest, hard working republicans have a government of their own. And democrats can be unimpeded in their efforts to deficit spend the economy into destruction.”

“Repealing the declaration of independence?

LOL. That was is so funny thanks RR.

So I guess that would mean we go back to being British subjects? The Earl of Cheney? His Grace Obama, the Duke of Chicago?

LOL too funny.”

“Interesting. Since we're quoting Supreme Court cases, perhaps we should review Dred Scott and Plessy v. Ferguson.

I would like to hear your esteemed legal opinion on how each of these decisions were correct.”

“Neither Dred Scott Nor Plessey are current law.”

“I find it quite hard to understand all this racism when you realize that our species of humans originated in Africa.”

“Why do you think the righties think the earth is only 6000 years old. The fact that we all originated in Africa is too much for them to handle.

Please don't tell them, they might start running in the streets screaming, or having more Teabag parties. ;-)”

“Well, "the church" didn't allow non white males to hold the priesthood until 1978, after the government threatened to revoke their tax exempt status. And then there was the time a President of "the church" stated we would never go to the moon because that was another deity's turf. I guess the man from Kolob don't have much clout in the universe, huh?

Then there were the times when branch and stake Presidents excommunicated women who were abused as children because they failed to die to protect their virtue.

And yes, any religious organization that spreads religious views should not receive a penny of taxes, IMO, no matter how "good" they claim they are.

Finally, birthers have no ground to stand on. It's like the flat-Earthers. Do you think we should give them some time in science class just because they have an opinion?”

“A little too generalizing on that point. I've heard many educated,p­rofessiona­l people with views similar to the 'demostrators'. Having a limited, self-only view of the world has been growing in our country since Reagan was a corporate spokesman in the 1950's.”

“Vocal opposition is not a violent act, correct.

However, bleating "Four legs good two legs bad!" over and over again until the other side cannot speak is not vocal opposition, it's just an attempt to stop the other side from talking.

And by the way, since when is threatening violence to others considered free speech?”

“Correct, we all have the right to protest. However, we all have a responsibility to protest intelligently.

For instance, discussing different proposals and debating the issues is intelligent. Harassing politicians and screaming at the top of your lungs is not and does not serve any purpose. Just because the sheep want to say "Four legs good, two legs bad!" over and over again doesn't mean they should actually say it.

And threatening the lives of people who want to organize and stand for their own political views is not protected speech. That is a criminal act.”

“Well, when I was in the Marine Corps, they taught us to get along and work with your squad mates. My platoon commander was black in Desert Storm (as was many of my fellow jarheads), and that didn't seem to interfere with anything. We needed him, and he needed us, and without each other we were all dead.

But then again I was in infantry. Maybe the REMF (rear echelon M**ther F**ckers) felt a bit differently.”
