AVATRBR seems to have forgotten the 8 years of W & Crew sinking a vibrant economy, wasting and pocketing the surplus Clinton left him to work with, and starting two very expensive wars with little to no definition.
The huge fortune flushed down the toilets in Iraq and Afghanistan could have been well spent here in the USA on our own infrastructure, putting Americans to work, and paying for health care for those that are now un-insured.
Barrack Obama had nothing to do with the balloon guy’s weird attempt at fame.
And, yes, the child is vomiting. They tend to do that when they are caught doing something wrong on this kind of level. What a great set of parents this child has. This is a prime example of a man and a woman destroying marriage here in Colorado. And, look at how this couple is raising these children. They should have their tubes tied and the children moved to foster care. Just don’t send them to the Catholic church where their chances of being molested is quite high. (Just look at the history of that church.)
I guess Anatrbr doesn’t consider all the billions we’ve wasted, and continue to waste, on Iraq, part of the economy, since it doesn’t seem to appear in his analysis.
Now Larry King represents the GOP” How did Larry King get in this discussion?
avatrbr, your interpretation of recent history is wrong on so many levels, it defies credulity. But, on the other hand, you’ve actually proved the intent of the toon.
Sooky Rottweiler says;
I know a saint-Bernard who vomited a toaster, along with many weird things he ate.
Well, those are weird by human standards, of course, but not by canine ones.
Oldlego incorrectly said: “OOPS now they are callingGordon Brown Hitler too.”
No, that is Nick Griffin, leader of the British National party. An ultra-right, racist party.
This isn’t Godwin’s Law being evoked because Griffiths was - but only in the past according to him - a Nazi sympathiser.
He is in the news because he was given airtime on the BBC’s Question Time programme, which generated a lot of polemic, protests and debate this past week in the news. If you follow UK newspapers, as I know you do, I’m sure you would know about this.
Both, however, do have glass eyes. Gordon Brown lost his eye in a rubgy game incident, Griffiths allegedly lost his eye in a gunshot incident.
Okay, they sound racist. Cool picture on BNPsite
But they also appear they are reacting to a country that is floundering into chaos as their amorally-correct government capitulates to every whim and reason it comes in contact with.
Ugh, so simple to blame either side. The main issue was the both sides democrats and republicans believed the line that the market will solve itself. Which is stupid becuase thats like saying, “oh, we dont need a speed limit because everyone will be careful enough to not get into crashes”.
People are stupid and greedy and that is why we ended up where we are, and which is why we will do it again, because people are stupid and greedy. So stupid and greedy in fact that people will convince themselves that it is good to be stupid and greedy.
What people need is to wake up, get educated and start making hard decisions like, capping salaries (nobody NEEDS more than an anual seven figure income, and that is being generous), getting people real, cheap (if not free) healthcare and education, and cleaning up the earth (and not because of some climate change hoopla, but for the fact that cleaning up creates jobs, increases health and longevity and forces more effeciency and innovation in the system).
We need goals as a society, and profit is not a goal, its an endless game of chase your tail (Red Queen, anyone?), while zero emissions is a goal, which fosters innovation and ingenuity. For Americans to go to the moon was a completely unnessary goal (other than national pride) but was a goal that when accomplished generated some of the greatest technological innovations known to man.
C.A, exactly my point. There was no actual need to go to the moon, i mean once America got there all they did was plant a flag, scoop up some rocks, fire some golfballs and drive a bitchin’ moon buggy around, but otherwise it wasn’t the most necessary thing to do. But by setting a real goal, such as “lets go to the moon, because then we can rub it in the face of the Russians” is a great goal because it drove innovation. Now the greatest innovation is in the financial sector which only generates more profits, but add nothing of value to the planet (now one can say, well we can buy stuff with the money, but that doesnt lead to innovation, its just leads to more stuff).
And if you mean to say that I described Zimbabwe, then I suggest you reread you history, because although Zimbabwe may have attempted to instill some ideals of socialism into its national structure, does not mean that that was its downfall. Their downfall was mulitfaceted, when you consider its a very young country with a troubled colonial past.

Think it’s a coincidence that Heene and H1N1 are pronounced the same — and both involve gastrointestinal distress?

yep, the kid is vomiting toaster … which he did in an on-air interview (insert comma between vomiting and toaster … you’re not being vomited, toaster)

Avatrbr, you’re the only person I’ve seen who switches the definition of conservative and liberal so completely, and so often.
You should get hired by Cheney to be on his history-rewriting team!
