You want to cut spending? Cut the departments of education, commerce, homeland security, agriculture, cut the FBI, IRS, CIA, FEMA etc... and reduce the size of what we don't cut and remove redundancies. Get rid of stupid things like the national gun registry, etc and repeal all these unconstitutional laws.
Get rid of entitlements.Quote:

Now if you you simply think Fox is a bad comedian. that's fine.
I miss chapelle. He was a real funny dude. He doesn't he just isn't producing as much anymore.Quote:

So obama is time person of the year. He dosent deserve it. There are more qualified people like that pakistani girl that stood up for womens rights and got an assasination attempt, or the teachers who gave their lives for students at the school shooting.
Yep, I pretty much laughed my ass off at how stupid this award is now. They are just kissing up to Obama. He doesn't deserve shit.Quote:

Like I said, had his monologue actually been funny, even remotely funny, I would have laughed and moved on, but it didn't come across as comedy. Now looking back at it and realizing his monologue was actually supposed to be comedy, I don't really care, but watching it initially, looking at him as an actor and not a comedian, and taking those comments not as comedy but his comments as an actor on his new film.... it came off much differently.
Why is it you think Obama was deserving of that award?Quote:

I'm an Obama supporter and I glanced over the headline and moved on with my life in a nano second. :lol:
thats fine. Like I said- if you're a comedian and you're gonna make racial jokes- you better be funny and you better know your audience.Quote:

No you didn't. If you had, the first sentence would have been unnecessary. But you knew this coming in so odds are, you're just being intellectually dishonest now. You can't have it both ways.Quote:

calling someone out for feigning interest in a topic ≠ caring about the topic.Quote:

on another note- your post is beyond incoherent. work on expressing your thoughts- free advice champ.
or you could continue trying to hurt my feelings on the interwebs :lol: RON PAUL 2XXX???
So Daywalker you going to answer Kwesnoth question or just avoid it by spewing out something to try to distract from it? Also I notice for being a big support of his, a few weeks back when we talked about the harm Obamacare was doing you where no where to be found. Another taboo topic for you?
it's all a con and a platform to break up friends alike
yeah no. Y'all must still be recovering from your holiday hangover... bit slow on the uptake.Quote:

As for your little Obamacare discussion- I had that debate 2 years ago, and then 21 months ago, and then 18 months ago. Same people making the same nonsensical partisan arguments that they got off Faux or conservative blogs... it all gets repetitive and tiresome.
But if you want my thoughts on Obamacare they can all be found within this thread. good luck.
this obama care actually got people killed back in 2010 and it will not come to pass any time soon... He is a person of color and enough said

Your real problem is that you want me to argue against your opinion... but as I don't care one way or the other... you're left playing with your own ballz.
y'all probably couldn't even tell me who won last year... or the year before that... or the year before that...
(stop looking it up! cheaters!!!! repent and thou shall be saved)
the fiscal cliff talks are a joke. They are touting that one plan would cut 1-trillion over 20 years...ignoring the fact we've been running 1-trillion+ deficits every year. its asinine. they can't even pass a worthless bill. Congress is just objectionable right now. Next election if we don't fire reid, pelosi and boehner, then i will know that nobody in this country even cares anymore.
