Great song.:tup:

You really need to overturn CU and put a limit on campaign spending. Here we have publicly financed elections and it's much better.
They tried that in the late 1990s. Unfortunately too many politicians like kick backs and the populous doesn't get to angry over it.

This is rather idiotic. Of course, if the Republicans made a video about this over Obama, people would call it racism and want the folks who made it arrested. Yet since the "Liberal" authoritarians produced the video, nobody cares.



I don't know, even though I grew up as a Democrat, I can't help but think that they're all scummy clownish waste now...

Many Europeans will never admit it, so let them write their own history books. The real question that most can't answer is why this country no longer provides such chances, even though it is in very plain sight. It's the enemy from within.
yeah must be it

a true 'merican :heart:

Oh, come on, Andy. It's funny. You at least have to appreciate the humor. It's not like they're saying that four out of five economists say Romney's budget plan will enslave 90% of Americans, blacks included, to new Chinese owners.

And both The Economist and the New Yorker ran pieces this week highlighting the phantom boogeyman of illegal voting that's inspired some 37 states to come out with countermeasures. We may as well have state ballots to refute Sharia law.

Of course, you think I'm a worshipping Obama and Democrat loyalist, so I'm probably wasting my breath...

Shut your chewi-tobacky pie-hole.

It's not funny at all. I don't care about the threats against Romney, it's just not funny. And millions of people would be up in arms if Obama was the target of that rubbish.

Even a Repulican friend of mine lol'd at that. For god's sake, it is a pensioner wanting to cock punch a presidential candidate. There is a word for it: satire. And fortunately the US is a free enough country to allow such a thing and people have enough of a sense of humour to laugh at it.

It is just the usual people bitching and it wouldn't be different if it was vice versa politically. Bitches gonna be bitching.

You didn't get the point. Do you live in the United States? The Democrats are always talking about right-wing "hate speech" which they think can incite violence against the President. This "speech" can be merely referring to Obama as Hitler, saying he's a traitor, et cetera. Whether satire or not, Democrats wet their panties over it. Yet here we are with this example, albeit on the opposite side of the aisle, and you hear nothing but laughter. That figures.

Fortunately that clown who shot Gabbie Giffords was actually a left-winger, somewhat of a Commie.

I guess if you don't get it, you don't get it and never will. Be proud you can join the ranks of the rest of the hypocrite American slaves.

But racial and gender politics in this country extend well beyond this presidential election, Andy. You of all people should recognize that.

This is why it's ok for businesses to represent the husband as a clueless idiot in TV commercials where the wife is the smart one. You never see the reverse. And that has nothing to do with Republicans or Democrats.

A woman kicks a guy in the balls, that's comedy. A guy bitch-slaps a woman, then you're Chris Brown's evil brother: not funny.

I don't live in the US, therefore I don't get it! Nice start.

But you cannot notice the difference between satire and calling someone a Nazi/Communist/Muslim? Let me remind you: the former is clean satire, the latter is bigotry.

Maybe you should have quoted instances where democrats went ahead and called Republicans Nazis, which would have been a good comparison and equally as stupid as calling Obama a Nazi/Communist/Muslim, while showing the true colours of US politics: 2 sides badmouthing each other and bitching about each side's badmouthing.

And while I am honoured by your invite to be a slave, I am neither an American, nor a Democrat/Republican. So I guess I am ineligible. :andyandbarcelona:
