Smells like a reality show – or a new SNL skit (loved the one with Fallon as bin Laden and Sanz as Sadaam).
Suetonius said, about 1 year ago
You mean patriotic like having Daddy get you out of a war and into a National Guard unit that would not deploy, only to fail to serve even then? Or patriotic like claiming you stand for America’s ideals in the Constitution, only to run it through the shredder? Yeah, that First Amendment is troublesome. But it lets folks like you write gibberish. Very clever atavar. I get it, because you believe Obama is a socialist, and you also mistakenly believe there is not difference between liberalism, communism, and socialism, you have a little crescent and hammer in the Obama logo. Gee, that is clever. All you conservatives think he is a socialist. Just like Jefferson, S. Adams, Lincoln, Eisenhower, and Nixon.

Sue, Don’t waste time with StewieZ. He has his own little world and doesn’t like it being upset.
rikoshayrabbit said, about 1 year ago
You know Stewie… there’s been a lot of interesting developments since that freaky weird September 11th day. Such as… most of the 19 “hijackers” have been interviewed on the BBC and other international news media.They’re just fine and wondering what the big fuss is all about. And over 500 architects across America will certify those buildings falling down as one of the finest controlled demolitions of all time. Just look at building no. 7 and tell me what happened there. And, there’s the mayor of Shanksville, Pennsylvania who swears that was no plane crash. Lots of emergency rescuers came to the same conclusion. There was that very peculiar 15’ wide hole in the Pentagon, that supposedly, a Boeing 757 flew through, and there are many other events that the government described to us, that just don’t fit the picture. If you agree with the official government report, it is highly likely that you are working for these liars, too.
Corosive Frog said, about 1 year ago
Stewie; So, if I follow your logic that everyone who doesn’t agree with Bush is a moonbat, 75 percent of americans are moonbats and so is virtually the rest of the world. And republicanamerica is the only clean, non-moonbat part of the world.
A bit arrogant, isn’t it?
Alexus_The_Great said, about 1 year ago
First: “Only a true liberal moonbat would think that the man responsible for 9/11 is more popular and better than President Bush…” In this case BOTH seems to be the same person!…

Second: OBL is dead… Sorry to wake you up, but your needed nemesis ala-Emmanuel Goldstein has been dead for a long time now. (even our allies know that…)

Third: If the Universe is generous enough to have a retrograde like you make enough living to have a Corvette, I see no reason why Ted here cannot make it too…

The Bin Ladens are very good friends with the Bushs. On September 11th, though the entire airspace above America was in lock-down only the Bin Ladens were airborne, back to Saudi Arabia. Bush has made no effort to find OBL, because to actually find this guy would make folks feel less “terrified” and that would put a dent in the perpetual state of emergency we function under. If OBL is alive, though I’ve read many reports that he is not, he is likely to be found in Kennebunkport playing tennis with George and Barbara. “Ooooh… I just love your little dog Millie.”

This gives a new meaning to crazy ranting… .
rikoshayrabbit said, about 1 year ago
I’ve always been crazy. It keeps me from going insane. The straight story, from government authority, is insanity at its finest. We all want to succeed, do a very good job with whatever we do. Great writers win Pulitzers and Nobel prizes. Great musicians win Grammys and the love and devotion of their fans. The government seeks CONTROL, that’s how they succeed. Our founding fathers knew this very well. That’s why the Constitution was intended as a leash to be held on the government. We The People let go of that leash a long time ago. Stewie asked how Ron Paul was doing. Paul, who’s main objective was to underline the Constitution, was soundly ignored by a population of compliant sheep. Bush referred to the Constitution as “it’s just a goddam* piece of paper.” Thank you dtreidel, I would like to give crazy ranting a whole new meaning.

At least Ted Rall has been to the Middle East many times and knows what the situations are there. Dubya goes over to serve turkey to our troops ( and a few of them gave him their backs ).
dtriedel said, about 1 year ago
O.K., then.
kellykid said, about 1 year ago
Almost as unpopular as congress.
lalas said, about 1 year ago
Except Congress is 435 people (or 535 incl. Senate) and W is just one guy. Most individual Congresspeople don’t rank nearly that low.
Part of that low rating is the most obstructionist minority party ever!
According to Wikipedia (with documentation):
“In the fall of 2007, the 110th Congress’ 1st session broke the record, for filibuster cloture votes, topping 70 as of Nov 15, 2007. It is on track to triple the number of such votes in 2008’s 2nd session.”
lalas said, about 1 year ago
Seriously, 911 conspiracy theorists, keep it to yourselves for another 5 years… then we’ll have proof (unless the shred EVERYTHING). Right now, the proof is dodgy and the wingnuts are rabid.
rikoshayrabbit said, about 1 year ago
What happens at five years??
lalas said, about 1 year ago
The rabid dogs take a nap and we pounce!
LOL!
What kind of investigation can happen with all the guilty persons still in power.

9/11 2800 dead.
Iraq, 4500 dead American service men and women, 30000 PLUS, maimed American service men and women. 1 million plus dead Iraq men, women, and CHILDREN.
So much for the sanctity of life person.
rikoshayrabbit said, about 1 year ago
Yes, Leaky! Popularity is certainly in the eye of the beholder. But to examine Stewie’s comment, and I have given this a lot of thought over the years, I truly believe the “man” responsible for 9/11 is Bush. He couldn’t have thought this one up himself, so there are many other men and women out there who created this tragedy. “The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed by manacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary.” - H. L. Mencken
rikoshayrabbit said, about 1 year ago
What’s that got to do with the price of butter?There are no rules, DD. No laws. The puppet masters will choose the next president and it’s none of your business. Always another hobgoblin to keep the masses distracted.
kellykid said, about 1 year ago
Maybe you should read the official court documents of the suit yourself: http://news.justia.com/cases/featured/Pennsylvania/paedce/2:2008cv04083/281573/

Odd pattern emerging as I surf the ‘toons here: dd posts the spam and toadykelly chirps in.
Flag LIBERALLY, my friends~
kellykid said, about 1 year ago
Nice personal attack Herb. I only “chirp in” when someone responds to DD. I’m not supporting DD but responding to those talking back to him. But alas, a closed mind like a closed room gets awful stuffy. But tell me this - if Obama is so clean, why won’t he let the public see the vault copy of his birth certificate - is it that one doesn’t exist or what?
Corosive Frog said, about 1 year ago
It was not a personal attack but just a statement of facts.
kellykid said, about 1 year ago
Calling me Toady is personal - the rest isn’t fact either - only opinion.
Herbabee said, about 1 year ago
Well, let’s do the equation.
dd posts
kelly parrots
lather, rinse, repeat
Please allow me to at least gesture with a shrug?
Patchesdf said, about 1 year ago
Despite the fact I’ve never liked Bush, back in 2003, I would have said “Dude, bit harsh” Now it’s just nowhere near harsh enough.
