General / Re: I must hate America
« on: February 24, 2010, 09:53:40 PM »This country's filled with a bunch of damned sycophants. You have better friends here.
I grew up in (and still attend college in) Mississippi, so I suppose this kind of crap shouldn't surprise me, but you still hold out hope sometimes....

General / I must hate America
« on: February 24, 2010, 08:27:15 PM »
I posted a link on my Facebook to the article about the 13 year old being removed from class by the police and got QUITE an angry and outrageous response to it by some of my friends and classmates. It just shocks me how ignorant people can be of the issues and some of the insane stances people take on things. I'll post a few quotes from their responses:
"That is pathetic! I can't believe that!... They should have taken him and threw him across the border! If someone doesn't want too put their hand across their heart in respect for this great nation and the people that have died and ARE dying for the very freedom they have, then they need to be gone!"
"It should be instilled in young people to love this country from a very young age."
"Hey you are embarrassing yourself in public essentially. Anyone who is not a true patriot for America should not enjoy any of our rights. I have a lot of friends in the military and a lot of my family has served; fighting foreign or domestic enemies has EVERYTHING to do with protecting our FREEDOM that does not come free at all. So do yourself a favor and just keep such gibberish to yourself or maybe change your whole perspective. The kid mentioned above needs some serious education and maybe a little time in military school as far as I am concerned if not total expulsion from school and this country's states and territories. Hundreds of thousands if not millions of our blood brothers and sisters have died horrible deaths and situations all for this country as far as they were concerned. Just ask yourself what your forefathers and fellow countrymen who have first hand knowledge of how much evil and tyranny is out there just hoping we let our guard down would think of you. Read this well and several times and use your head."
"We can't stop terror. But we can keep it out of this country as much as possible. You can't stop drugs. But you can enforce rules instead of allowing every dope slinging crackhead out there to open up stores on main street next to a church. You see it's people who stand up against what is wrong and puts a STOP to it."

I had to quit listening to his call-in shows. You can only listen to so many whiny 13 year olds wanting to run away from home

General / Nice quotes to start off the week
« on: February 22, 2010, 01:18:21 PM »
Found this in one of my aviation textbooks during class:

General / Re: Scott the Bigot Turning Free Talk Live Into "Free Bigot Live"?
« on: February 22, 2010, 01:03:33 PM »
Scott is one of the most interesting callers on the show......up until the point he starts to repeat his 'If i had a child....I wouldn't let them fight for this country' speech he tends to give every time.
If Ian would just hang up on him the second that speech started, I wouldn't have any problems with him.....not that I agree with him, he's just entertaining mainly because he annoys Ian.

« on: February 22, 2010, 12:38:47 PM »Look, its pretty f--kin simple................. I'll explain it as if you are 10 yrs old
The taxpayers in his district pay a shitload of money to the federal govt......... the federal govt decides they want to spend that money....... RP votes against it (lets give it back to the people that paid it)............. the majority votes to pass the spending bill because they are not like RP, his vote lost, so since it passed anyway, he might as well get some of that money back to the people in his district that paid it in the first place, and that is done through earmarks. Understand?
If you were a tax payer in his district, would you rather the federal govt take your money and spend it on studying the mating habits of earthworms somewhere in California 1000 miles away , or would you rather at least get some of it back to your town where the money came from in the first place? Sure, it would be better if they didnt take it from you at all, but since they do, would you rather just have a congressman that said "nah, let them spend our money somewhere else" ?
So two wrongs make a right?
No, but two Wrights made the airplane
