Bob why do you watch MSNBC? Could it be you like to be angry. If you want that count reversed return to Fox (aka Republican propaganda machine).

I agree with Mo, Bob. I would add, do your blood pressure a favor and turn off the TV entirely.

First of all: Bob (along with some other frequent contributors here) doesn't exist. He is a paid Koch employee who pretends to be a concerned citizen for the sake of spreading Koch propaganda. He sits in a corporate office trying to think up outrageous things that no half-aware middleclass American would ever believe themselves. No sane person would even consider supporting such self-destructive policies unless they were being paid to do so.

Thanks Irving, those existential feelings must mean something....I dont exist ! That explains a lot, thanks.

Also, Irving, my weekly check from Mr. Koch is missing...could you help me out and let them know I am working on their behalf....and doing such a great job a bonus is in order...

Talk to the Hand

Irving, this fits you to a tea:

I am a Liberal Progressive….

I am allowed to criticize and defame all who disagree with my life. The sun is my God and the Moon my mother, beyond that…all else is irrelevant, until I decide it matters.

I am a Liberal Progressive….

My heroes are flawed and I see it not, for their faults were of good intentions, but, the results of my idols, though unimpressive, will remain in my soul as worthy attempts at something wished for…. and the hope, not the deed, is all that matters.

I Am a Liberal Progressive…

I think therefore I am superior. My values will change daily, for core beliefs are fluid and must not impede my growth…. It is the feeling that matters and not the deed.

I am a liberal Progressive….

Those who oppose me are ignorant…I am superior and enlightened, and my absence of faith only strengthens my feelings, and feelings are everything.

Thanks for your concern , Amy, but dont have any more problems there; weight loss and exercise have made the difference. Annual Vacations in Maine helps...

If a few conservatives don't post a few sane remarks in this moonbat haven , your progressive delusions will just multiply, until on election day, your blood pressure and sanity will both break.
