They’re way ahead of you. You see, the fact that you went to college is another strike against you.
I keep forgetting that college is where we learn all these heathen, unamerican, unchristian, materialist ways. damn you good education.
It’s not your fault, you didn’t realize you were going to be indoctrinated by the ivory-tower elites of academia.
But what’s this about materialism? Shoot, I think the right considers that a virtue. How else could you fulfill the highest calling in America, starting a business?
not materialism, materialist. thats what these tea party pseudo-christians call any non-biblically based science. You know, like evolution, abiogenesis, paleontology, physics, etc. Bachmann is a BIG supporter of the whole Book of Genesis as science thing. She doesn’t even care that it is unconstitutional to teach ID/creationism in public schools, she thinks (and i use that verb very loosely,) that ID needs to be taught in schools because we are a ‘nation founded on christian principles.’ of course she also ignores the first sentence of the 1797 Treaty of Tripoli which reads ‘As the Government of the United States of America is not, in any sense, founded on the Christian religion…’ (anyone wanting a cite, just google it,) which blows 90% of the neo-con social rhetoric clean out of the water.
Yeah, but who cares about some old treaty? The Constitution is the most effective, revered document in the world, crafted by founding fathers of divine inspiration and wisdom. Four or five more amendments and it’ll be perfect.
well, Starving, at least you know how to pick your battles. Keep on digging at the picture, because if you try to defend any of the words coming out of her mouth you know that logic and rational thought are going to dogpile on you. Now seriously, how brainwashed are you? You use all the textbook (once again being very liberal with that word) phrases in the FOX news/conservative pundit repertoire (thats a fancy word for collection of things to use,) for demonizing anything which runs contrary to the party line; words like ‘leftie’, ‘rag’, ‘hatchet job’, etc. Is it possible for you to come up with comments that dont degrade themselves by using obvious propaganda techniques pioneered by Josef Goebbels? Can you come up with unique, intelligent, civil and constructive statements rather than reactionary, pre-programmed drivel? Can you provide cites which can stand the test of peer review for your claims? These are sincere questions, and I feel that I am being more than adequately polite in my manner of phrasing these questions, considering that this is the pit.
because the Tripoli Treaty of 1797 gives excellent support to the Constitution and the establishment clause in the First Amendment. The treaty supports the historic fact that the US was not founded on Christianity or Christian principles. It owes more to the…oh, wait, you’re being sarcastic aren’t you. Damn, the internet needs a dedicated sarcasm font.
Ooh, we could make that an amendment, too.
YEAH!!! we could get the Tea Party freshman in the house to sponsor it! On a side note, I’m kinda disappointed that Starving Artist didn’t take the bait from my last post aimed at him.
I’m not clear on why the title “The Queen of Rage” is necessarily a slur. I mean, is she not angry? Isn’t the basis for her appeal supposed to be as a face and voice for outrage against liberal government abuses and stuff? Don’t her supporters want her to be wrathful?
I showed the Newsweek cover to the sprog. When a nine-year-old who has never heard of you thinks you look crazy, you look crazy.
No need to make one up:

Holy flurking schnit.
Don’t tell me Faux News could doctor photos. I’m shocked. :rolleyes:
Poe’s Law indeed. You know, at this point I’m halfway convinced Fox News is in fact a very involved, ongoing performance art piece. You know, like people who eat semen-marinated feces on stage, except Fox does it with the news.
That, or Murdoch has an ongoing bet with his millionaire friends re: how much insane, cartoonish shit like this he can pull and *still *be one of the most watched TV stations in America with credibility ratings out the arse. So far, he’s winning big.
ok, im still riffing on how much Bachmann looks like Manson in drag.
Crocodile Dundee/ ‘‘That’s not a hatchet job, this

is a hatchet job.’’/CD
Liberals made them do it. And if they didn’t they were about to and Fox News had no choice but to preemptively retaliate.
Can you imagine?
The Woman with the Crazy Eyes and Valarie Putin in a caged death match. The winner gets to press the nuclear doomsday button.
It wouldn’t surprise me if that’s the fantasy that gets those two off.
If you think the headline “The Queen Of Rage” is controversial, wait until next week when the cover shot is of her husband and the headline is “The Raging Queen”.
