    joke of the day.

    Last year we said, 'Things can't go on like this', and they didn't, they got worse. Will Rogers
  2. If ya are lucky you'll be old someday.
  3. I think the blue dogs are more worried about keeping their jobs than honoring Ted Kennedy.
  4. Why is I get the feeling I am lucky I don't know who the hell Scott Stapp is?
  5. That was one damn good video. The blonde gal was obviously a damn commie who thought she could keep the audience mute.
  6. Two more suggestions, repeal the Kefauver Amendment to the FDA and eliminate licensing requiremnets for practicing medicine.
  7. ?The difference between stupidity and genius is that genius has its limits.? Albert Einstein
  8. ?I may be drunk, Miss, but in the morning I will be sober and you will still be ugly.? Winston Churchill
  9. I always have to laugh when someone is getting divorced for the third or fourth time and they are once again blaming their ex.
  10. Warning If you are pregnant or eating do not look at image below: [attach=full]2447[/attach] She should have been responsible and not entered the chipmunk impersonation contest.
  11. Sorry, I will give warnings and leave it where you have to click in the future.Since I now have TJ on ignore, and everyone else is capable of comprehending the written word, I doubt I will need to use photos in the future. Sometimes I forget everyone ain't an insensitive bastard like myself. I will send you a coupon good for a free bendy class.
  12. Extremism in the defense of liberty is no vice. The pictures saved me a thousand words each thus conserving my energy for more worthwhile things.
  13. The 41 people killed should have been responsible.
  14. Please, stop quoting him in length. I got him on ignore. Answering the same question over and over bores me.
  15. I miss Milton. IMO, the greatest American of the 20th Century.
  16. Maybe, these young supporters are just getting an inkling of an idea that Obamacare is another attempt by my generation to steal from theirs. How did the greatest generation sire the biggest asshole generation?
  17. Another vote for swine flu. Better dead than red.
  18. If you look up Post Turtle in the dictionary there is a photo of Jimmy Carter besides the definition.
  19. You know better than I, IWS, that the police officer can use use his individual discretion in cases like this. Crowley could have walked away, since the only source of Gate's outrage, was Crowley's presence. Clearly, disturbing the peace laws must be on the books, otherwise a neighbor blaring loud rap music could make my life a living hell. I firmly believe though that few arrests are made when an officer is called on a disturbing the peace call. Now, if the peace disturber refuses the officers request to stop his actions he will be arrested. So why do I think Gates should not have been arrested when Crowley requested Gates to shut up and Gates refused to do so? Mainly, because when I watch Cops (sorry, that is the best I can do) if the peace disturbance is caused by arguments between two individuals what the officer almost always does is get the individuals to seperate, to get one or both to return to their homes or somewhere else where they are no longer in the proximity of each other. Seldom is an arrest made. Crowley could have seperated the two parties in this disagreement quite easily. All he had to do was say. "Have a nice day, you raving lunatic" and leave. Crowley, was, most likely, not legally wrong, under current laws; he was wrong under my personal moral code, that emphasizes individual liberty and the Constitution as envisioned by our founding fathers, not the Constitution that the oligarchs in black robes have given us. Jefferson summed it up best "The government that governs best, governs least."
  20. Now that I no longer have to address the under 70 IQ group let me quote J.S. Mill from the first chapter of "On Liberty": Mill is following in the tradition of Jefferson, the author of the Declaration of Independence and Madison, known as "The Father of the Constitution". You do not arrest someone, especially in their own home, for protesting the action of a government official. Whether it be the police officer at their door or the POTUS. You do not choke your maid for not starching your shirt, or stone your maid for not sweeping the floor or for blowing a camel. You do not behead a man for not taking out the garbage. You do not denose a man for stupidly playing with a chimpanzee. They may be all acts of irresponsibility, but they are not crimes deserving of either government imposed penalties or individually imposed violence. I respect no group more than police officers because the vast majority of them manage not to abuse the power placed in their hands. It is a tough job. Police officers, i.e. Crowley, sometimes slip up, to err is human. And to the under 70 IQ group, Yo Mama.
  21. Since I cost ya your lunch I would say we are even.
  22. If she had been responsible she would still be alive.
  23. Now, if I can just get the ignore function to work when the imbecile is quoted.
  24. Decided not to engage in circular debates anymore. That ignore function comes in handy.
  25. Pictures speak a thousand words and debating with imbeciles, such as yourself, is a joke. I am sure evreyone else understood the point behind the photos.
