Don't make us LAUGH too hard there, kettle.
Gt happens to be on the CORRECT board and her views aren't the least hateful to anyone else who is on the CORRECT board expressing the appropriate views. Who are you to sit there complaining that your divisive and disruptive behavior isn't treated with the proper respect here? It's all so much petulant kindergarten whining. If you don't like it, LEAVE. If you stay we have to assume you do like it, and in that case, what are you wasting time complaining about?
Do you ever get tired of making unfounded
in no way threaten you or your guns. It takes a constitutional amendment to take your precious guns away. Do you have any idea how hard it is to get one of those? Do you know when the last time was that the Constitution was amended? If you don't agree with stricter control, fine...just don't tell bald face lies and forecasting apocalypse based on bald-face lies.
Unfounded gossip can be harmful.

and that is what this story is about.  Personally I won't post or pass along anything from either candidate that I don't hear from their mouth to my ears.  If anyone can produce PROVEN facts, by all means I'll listen.


Pure hysteria, much of what you say.
I might also add, that as a casual observor, your hatred of conservatives, or as you so sweetly call them *CONS* is very evident.  It's ludicrous to deny it.  Anyone who does not agree with you, even when they are not of the political persuasian you accuse them of being, they are labeled and you send up a cry to the moderator and THEN you insult the moderator!  LOL.  You duplicity is quite obvious.  Except, perhaps, to you.  Let the flames begin!
Can we say mass hysteria?..(sm)
Wow..  It's unbelievable the conceit that Americans have.  One world government? -- that would be based on speculation.  What makes you think other countries would even agree to being under the same rule as the US when (especially since the reign of Bush) other countries look at us like we're idiots and war mongers?  Let's take Canada for example.  They don't have the same problems as the US.  In my view they are a much more progressive country with not nearly the problems with special interest groups as the US.  Did you know that in order to become a Canadian citizen you have to first prove that you have a viable income?  There are many other countries with successful governments.  What makes you think they want a bunch of Americans messing that up?
No need to say "mass hysteria" yet
wait awhile, it'll come and I'd bet you'll end up in the mass hysteria too.
All the useless hysteria here lately.



Sure but outright hysteria and overdramatization
of known facts is another. the media controls the day, and the media has self-appointed themselves to be our checks and balances which is SCARY!!!
All the hysteria about Obama on this forum

that it's ignorant and very dangerous.)  Look at where all the hysteria has been leading some of McCain's supporters.  Suddenly there's a tangible threat of violence from these people, and it started sounding like a lynch mob.  That mentality seems to be far to pervasive on MT Stars.



Obama's whole campaign has been hype and hysteria...
lol. Good grief.
Do not fall for this hysteria... we all need calm heads
or we will all be in trouble, republican and democrats.  This is becoming the perfect storm for socialism if we do not stop being led around by those trying to play on our emotions. 
This is not hysteria - it is people expressing their concerns
The moment somebody brings up something that is questionable (and with good reason) about Obama the liberals are quick to say it's hysteria. Watching all the news stations its the same way. It was even brought up on one of the stations tonight about the vicious attacks on Palin. Now their coming out with a porn movie intentionally starring someone that looks like her (I'll be a lot of the liberals and liberal media are happy about that). But once again I heard the liberals say that the poor democrats have been "picked on" for so long that this is okay behavior. The disgusting way they turn it around and will say conservatives are "picking on Obama", but with their dirty campaign tactics and commercials they are only "bringing to light" the truths about McCain. It's all very one sided and I see that on this board too.

Conservatives have a very real and very valid concern about Obama and his shady past (to include where he was born and if he is actually legitimate to become president). The people who are his mentors, spiritual advisors, who gave him his start in politics, and the people who are advising him, along with the dirty bashing from liberal media, makes it very hard for one to have any "faith" in this person. He is so busy covering up his past, his voting record, the people he associates with, etc, etc. Sure he's a stellar speaker. After all - he is a lawyer. He knows how to capture his audience with stories. But lynch mob....I'm hearing it on Obama's side too.
Mob mentality and mass hysteria of Biblical proportions.
for a change. Tell us what we need to hear. McCain's economic plan and "shared party philosophy" is different from Bush how?
Yes, the chips exist honey. I was speaking directly to the hysteria evoked
It shows a distinct lack of knowledge about the world and the peoples who inhabit it.

As to those that perpetuate this mythos...well, if you allow anyone to prey on your fears, you give them power over you. People need to investigate all sides of an issue, not just the perspective they agree with or the one spoonfed to them.
You call it hysteria, some call it concern for the
nm
I could laugh at that...
...if it wasn't so scary. Unfortunately though I think you are right.
That you can laugh at that

LOL! Thanks for the laugh. (nm)


Thanks so much for the laugh.
You dare to use the word truth in the context of the most untruthful president in American history.  He lied about why we went to war with Iraq.  Plain and simple.  He lied.  You are defending an unethical dishonest liar. 
Thanks for the laugh...

Thank you for the laugh. LOL

LOL thanks for the laugh

Any idea how I got in the kitchen to paint vegetables in my old age?  No?  I didn't think so.  LOL


Thanks for the laugh! nm

HA HA HA - I have to laugh at
the ignor@ance of some people. I think I would have been standing with my mouth open and said "do you hear yourselves".

Here's something amusing. This was said by low and behold....Joe Biden. When talking about Obama he described him "clean and good looking". All I could think of was "you ignor@ant fool, we take showers too".

P.S. - I think people watch too much TV and get their ideas from there.

Thanks for the laugh though.
Don't know whether to laugh or cry
If people will believe "blogcaca," they will believe anything.

I'm still in shock.

Thank you for the laugh!
I wish Saturday Night Live would have been able to do this one!!!
I can laugh because.....(sm)

I think it is absolutely ridiculous to try and paint Fox News as a *middle of the road* news organization.  They are about as far right as you can get, just like MSNBC is about as far left as you can get. 


 


LOL is right on this one. A laugh is all
know who is more ignorantly childish Maddow or Olberman. However, Olberman is so big, he just looks like a big oaf. Besides, he is so consumed with jealousy of O'Reilly, he devotes most of his time to trying to poke fun at the man he despises the most because he can't get the ratings Bill does. The whole MSNBC crew can only see to the left, would get scared to death if they ever looked to the center, let alone to the right.

Besides, he is so eaten up with jealousy of O'Reilly that he devotes most of his time trying to make Bill look bad just because he hates him and can't get his ratings anywhere near Bill's ratings. The whole crew at MSNBC can only see to the left, so bad that if they even looked to the center a little it would scare them to death, let alone if they ever peeped to the right and saw a little real joy and happiness.
Laugh all you want and

by all means keep drinking the Kool-Aid.  Most Americans aren't laughing right now because whether you want to believe this or not....the dems in control are actually hurting us right now.  This constant spending is just insanity.  I couldn't care less if Bush handed this mess over to Obama.  Fine...we have castrated Bush already.  Now we have Obama spending like we have trillions of dollars to blow and all he can say is.....this is Bush's fault.  Look at the amount of money Bush spent in 8 year WITH a war.  Now compare that to the amount of money Obama has spent in 50-some days.  Laugh all you want but Fox has higher ratings than any other political channel.  So stay in your little bubble of denial and keep blaming pubs for everything while the majority of us open our eyes and realize that Bush is out of office and now we have to hold Obama's feet to the fire because he is in the White House now. 


So keep hoping for that change Obama promised because we don't even have change left and him and Pelosi want to spend MORE money!!!


And they wonder why I laugh at them...(sm)


Discussing anything with them is pointless.  I guess if Fixed Noise doesn't say it, it isn't true. 


PS:  Stick figures don't work either unless pitchforks and white robes are involved.


Sat. morning laugh
Anybody interested, watch the short animated video at:

http://www.batemania.com/bateman365/day009.html

It only takes a few seconds, it's really funny....until you think about it too long anyway.


Its me again - you all made me laugh
Just had to write back to let you all know I enjoyed reading all your posts to my "rant" this morning. It's nice that other people see her for what she really is, and sad that others do not. Sure we all want to just up and leave when things don't go our way and nothing seems fair, but as my mama used to say "who ever told you that life was fair", and no I'm not rich like the hollywood people who can leave country at the drop of a hat. So, just to let you know my feelings have not changed about how I feel for her. No, I don't hate her, but I do see her for what she is and I don't like it. Well yeah, maybe deep inside I do hate her. I just wish she would just go away and I wouldn't have to see her anymore, but somehow they always find their way out from under the rocks (Bush & Cheney is included). Anyway....I have calmed down since posting (not not with medication, but with a good dose of reality from all who commented) :-) I don't have anything to worry about anyways though because even if she pulls some of her "maneuvers" and knocks out Obama she will never win over McCain - just a fact. (if by chance she does, then in November I will come back and tell you all I'm eating crow. HA HA HA. I'm also not worried bout it anymore -after all I do have a "mute" and "channel changer" on my remote control. :-)
You make me laugh!!!
Who cares?
OMG! That is hilarious! Thanks for the laugh!

You made me laugh! Thanks! nm

Bright? Now that's a laugh
When a radio host went out on the streets of Harlem and asked the people questions about Obama, they were so ignorant to the facts they didn't even know who his running mate was, but yet they are allowed to vote. He asked them if they thought Palin was a good VP pick for Obama and they said YES! He asked if Obama wanting our troops to stay in Iraq was a good idea and they said, YES! My bet is more than half of those voting for him didn't even have a clue what/who they were voting for. Someone just told them free money and that's all they heard.


If I found something to laugh about...... sm

I would.  I just don't view the whole concept of abortion as funny in the least, and I find jokes about it, in any capacity, to be especially sick and demented. 


I know - sure needed a laugh here
Lifes too short to let things get to you. Of course people get mad (especially on this board), but after a few new posts it is forgotten. What really made me wonder was a post I read that said the OP was asking someone to be banned for what they wrote 3 or so pages back. Then when I read the witch hunt comment that's exactly what I thought too. Then when I saw both original post and reply I could not tell who was for what and who was mad about what, and it just got me laughing. I'm glad this is topic is turning humorous though. I'm reading all the funny posts and one thing I think all MTs have in common is a good sense of humor.
YOU LIAR, LAUGH YOU $$ OFF...s/m
What are you going to say when you appear in front of God?
With all your lies and being a hypocritical smarta$$???

We'll see who laughs last.
LIAR!
Glad you at least got a laugh...... sm
Yes, we definitely agree on this subject and for so many reasons that I don't think there is room to go into it all on this forum.

However, I will state with brevity that the Bible does speak very clearly and very plainly on the subject of homosexuality. It is wrong in God's (or as you put it our creator's) eyes. Therefore, it is considered a sexually deviant behavior, just the same as pornography, beastiality, etc.

And I do believe you are wrong in stating that it does not affect my life or my home because when my children see this sort of thing on the evening news or prostestors on the street, it is brought into my life and home and I then must explain to my children why I believe this behavior is wrong. Just as I told my sons last night (about a completely separate and unrelated subject) what you do affects others. No man is an island.

I do agree with you in the sense that all gays are not as extreme as the ones we heard about a week or so ago bursting into a church and distributing their fliers and descecrating the altar, but that is true of any sector of society....Christians, Muslims, tree huggers, those save the whales folks, etc.

People are not born with a "lifestyle." Babies come into this world as a blank slate not having been exposed to the various world views that are out there, so your argument about whether or not God would "create everyone with different lifestyles." Being poor is a lifestyle and while one may be born into a poor family, one does not have to remain poor. One might be born into a Christian family but there is no guarantee that person would be a Christian when he or she is of age to determine their own path in life. Lifestyles are chosen, not created by God.

I agree with you in that times are changing, and they seem to be changing more rapidly today than ever before. However, intellegence and independent thinking should not become so open-minded that one can no longer distinguish between right and wrong. When it gets to that point, and it is rapidly doing just that, we are doomed as a society as lawlessness and immorality will prevail.
I loved this.....thanks for the laugh....sm
Do you suppose it would really work for any of us in this day and age????.........lolol.........
Thanks for the laugh. But, unfortunately, they are all too true. nm

Anybody up for a good laugh? s/m

That horseface Coultergeist is on Dr. Phil today.  How anyone could take that anything that woman says seriously boggles the mind!!  I think she's hilarious -- what a joke of a human being!!  But like Lamebaugh, their shameless self-promotion and preying on the poor people that actually hang on their every word just makes them richer and richer.


You'll get a laugh out of this.

The trailer was in front of the shed. The assessor did a drive-by front view pictures of our property to make sure we weren't cheating by putting up buildings and not being taxes. He swore under oath that the shed was an expansion of the trailer living room! So, we had to take pictures of the side to show it wasn't attached.


He comes around once a year and every time I see him stop (he stays in his car and takes the pictures), I run out the door and he takes off faster than you-know-what.


As long as a bulding is not sitting on the ground on a cement pad, or is on wheels, i.e., moveable, they don't tax that.....yet. After we built this place (I really call it a basement 'cause it's underground on 3 sides), they started taxing basements and underground homes. Before we built our place, the rule was only to tax what was showing out of the ground; that's why we went underground. Can't win.


BTW, my state is PA.


That was neat. Thanks for the laugh. (nm)

OMG, you gave me a big laugh. And what about
the black/red dress Michelle wore when O held his victory speech in Illinois? Comments were: Different, astonishing etc......????
I'm going to laugh when the day comes when people
start taking them out with guns, car bombs, and the like. It's gotta happen, the only question is WHEN. Sure can't be soon enough for me.

'Get me some popcorn and pour me a beer', cause I'll be looking forward to them all getting what they deserve.
That was hysterical!! Thanks for the laugh.
Great post, loved it!
