1. All they did was take the prayer that some of the
teacher's union in New Jersey wrote and put up some place for
Governor Christie. (saying he was their favorite governor). Just goes to show you you that these right wing nutso don't even have an original bone in their head. Or are there heads so messy they don't have bones. They would steal anything not nailed down.

2. This text has been around for a long time,
regenerating frequently whenever somebody wants to recirculate it with the name of their favorite villain. The construction, especially with the death wish made in such a roundabout way, is humorous. But when applied to political leaders, especially someone like the President of the United States, it's not so funny. Unfortunately, this kind of crap is becoming all too common, especially as regards irresponsible "leaders" and other opinion-makers demonizing America's first black president.

4. Yeah, I did. It's against facebook rules.


What's worse is I found it through a 14 year old FF I have. She's the daughter of some republican friends of mine. It's sad because she's a sweet, intelligent and compassionate kid. It breaks my heart to see the hatred she's being taught.

6. Yeah, I was on the "Party of Money" train at one point in time.
Then I turned 18, went to college, read a lot and realized it (and they) was all a bunch of hooey. Smoke and mirrors, bait and switch, chicanery at it's most technical, robbery at it's most expensive. This was around the time the S & L scandal was getting it's customary bailout via US.

Graduating into the first of a few Republican Recessions (might as well give them a proper title at this point) doesn't help raise your view of "voodoo economics" either.

8. Your words give me some hope.


I was raised by a right wing racist father myself but was able to overcome all his negative conditioning as an adult. I wish the same for kids in similar situations.
