” The beauty of democracy (or a representative republic, which is what we actually live in) . . .etc.”

Todd, are you ever going to finish writing your book, “Everything I ever learned in life I learned while playing Civ II”? I’m sorry, I just get so tired of that canard.

Anyway, here’s another funny cartoon about someone who tries to silence dissent:

Great, a cartoon spawns Rick to wish for armed rebellion in the US.  Get over it.  The beauty of democracy (or a representative republic, which is what we actually live in) is that we have to right to vote in both idiots and heroes.  If you can’t go 4 years with that, then you have bigger problems in life.

Lebannon’s ‘Hizbollah’ has the courage to stand up to the overwhelming ‘might’ of the Israeli IDF, and defend their country against invasion, occupation, and foreign aggression.

Would that there were an American militia willing to do the same and confront these perverted neo-cons destroying our nation and subverting the very principles this democracy depends upon.  Sadly, America’s will falls silent, and we all bear complicity in the outcomes raging across the Global stage. 

Time to feed the sheep…

Sadly, not very far from the truth. At first, I thought all this militarism was just political posturing. But now that Iraq is a drag on the GOP, I see that this is really the way these guys think.

They’re incapable of seeing reality.

What else would you expect from trailer white trash? Blunt, ignorant, greedy and incompetent.
The perfect republican.

It’s all about me 1st, 2nd and 3rd and to hell with the country and the world.
