Fear and loathing in America

We have become way to polarized . Liberals have been demonized by right wing talk radio for years. Ditto for Conservatives though more so on TV and in print.

It is war. First casualty of war is the truth.

One thing for certain the liberal and conservative posters who battle in this forum seem to care more about America than the silent majority. I think the pledge of allegiance gets it right One nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all." Ironic the pledge was written by a socialist and modified to its current form by a republican president. Maybe we can all get along

Father not in control..........

I'm waiting for them to:

Blame Obama

Blame the Democrats

Blame anyone not white

Blame the Public Education System

Blame the change to Savings and Loans

Blame it on Post Racist Disorder caused by the 1967 Riots. I know there were much more serious riots in 1967, but maybe the news didn't get to Gladwin until 1968, causing some confusion for folks. :>)

Blame it on multiple postings too!

Nighty nite!!

No sensation from his chest down

Why, thank you! Never mind the fact that you ripped off 3 multiple posts in 18 minutes. Most fun, is it not?

I'm so boring, you responded. Remember, my daddy said "Son, only boring people get bored".

Yes, my ego is the size of a Rush Limbaugh dinner plate, no doubt. It has served me well though.

Thank you for your generous comments, and may you experience inner peace and everlasting love.

Good night!!

Signs of the Times, You say you want a Revolution?

RE: Muddy Road post of 11/22/09 @ 9:22 p.m:

Muddy Road contributed, in part, the following statement; "These nut job white racist theocrats are dragging this country down, down, down. They want to literally destroy this country so they can SAVE us by establishing a White Supremacist Christo-Theocracy. The prime motovation, now, is the Presidnt of the USA is a black man and to them that is cause for violent revolution."

Muddy Road, your postings continue to get more bizarre as time goes on. You, and you alone, are the only person on this forum who continually brings up race with regards to politics, more particularily, the president. It is unfortunate that this man, thus far, is a complete failure. Race, however, has nothing to do with it. Your contributions hint that, to disagree with this president is racial. Nothing is further from the truth. Many people are starting to see this president as an inept leader; one who has completely surrounded himself with an additional inept administration. He, and they, are now being exposed as to their Socialist agenda, and the people don't like it. The president's approval rating is in continual decline because he is indecisive, and he is indecisive because he is incompetent.

Save the race-baiting to the professionals, Muddy Road; the likes of Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson, although you're getting to be as big a windbag as those two.

It has been a perfect night on the old News Forum

Good times!

I shunned someone.

I dodged the draft into the Holy War.

I was insulted in cruel fashion by being call arrogant and ignorant.

I said "Christmas" and lived to talk about it. I wasn't even arrested as the rumors have been suggesting.

This was so much fun. I might come back and do it again tomorrow!!

Your ridiculous blabbering multiple posts shows you're also numb from the waist up. Your self inflated ego is boring.

Thanks Rhett. I feel like I know you now! Peace to you as well my humble brother.

Mon. 11/23/09 12:16 AM

Cool

I saw a post a few moments ago where someone used the old "Meds" insult. Ahh yes, an oldie, but a ....oldie. I'm going to get some popcorn as I await the double feature: "Your mom's basement".

Ya can't find writers like that anymore!!

Granholm

You've got to be kidding me. It's evident that you're a kool-aid drinking liberal Democrat with the editorals you write. If Granholm had been a Republican, you'd have torn her a new one several times over. You know it and your readers know it. Excuse after excuse after excuse you make for our Pitiful excuse of a Governor. Granholm isn't fit to hold Palin's purse let along run a state. All Granholm knows how to do is kiss the rear of the Teachers Unions and blame everyone else except her lack of leadership skills. She's was lousy when she took office in 2002 and has gotten worse ever year since. Her vision for Michigan consists of TAX, TAX, TAX then Spend, Spend Spend, with Teachers at the top of her list of benefactors.

I didn't post because I was "interested" in your Holy War. I posted because I thought your shout out to the "jihadist morons" was...ummm..kinda ...absurd?

Don't take yourself too seriously son, we are all in this thing for opinions and one night stands. Nuttin' more, nuttin' less. Nobody's gonna respect us in the morning. Happy Holy Warring, and peace to you my brother.
