Things are really starting to get out of hand aren't they?

[mopaul]

i mean, the bus driver is dead and we're headed down a winding road with no headlights toward a cliff and no one is grabbing the wheel or hitting the brakes.

the next four years will be twice as horrifying as the last, i wish i could get off this bus, or at least make it to the steering wheel before we all get killed.

[LiberalVoice]

1. Word

Sometimes I wanna get out of this fucking country more then anything. Just be somewhere else :(

[The Backlash Cometh]

15. I can't even get my family to move out of this city, much less this

country. It's like we on DU are the only ones that see the tidal wave coming, and everybody else just doesn't feel it's convenient to worry about right now.

[benburch]

2. The bus driver has a death-grip on the wheel...

You still need to deal with his Zombie.

[DistressedAmerican]

3. We're All Trapped Four 4 More Years!

We have to hit the streets in HUGE numbers if we are going to end this.



EVENT EXTENDED!

[Swamp Rat]

4. I'm ready to jump off as soon as it slows down a little... IF it does...

[mopaul]

5. givin' them reptiles hell

[DistressedAmerican]

7. "F"-ING HILARIOUS!!!

:smoke: :smoke: :smoke: :smoke: :smoke:

A little morning coffee for the Photoshop Posse! Go Mo! Stomp Swamp!:hi:

[Swamp Rat]

10. HAHA! I bet there's Chivas Regal in that mug!

[DistressedAmerican]

11. With So Many Graphics, You Must Be As Constipated Over These Guys As I Am!

Poke! Poke!

[Swamp Rat]

12. Yep, and nothing seems to help.

I really need to take a break from DU. I'm supposed to be working on a masters and a PhD, and have midterms coming up, but I cannot stop making pics of those bastards.

I wish I had some really good drugs right now, like the kind Laura takes, so I can sleep a few hours this week.

[DistressedAmerican]

14. You Can't Afford The Kind Of Drugs These Folks Get!

[Pachamama]

18. Go have some sex Swamp Rodent! It's what works best for me...

and its the best drug of all... :hi:

But wait! Your not married! That's a sin then to have sex before marriage! OH NO! :hi:


PS: Mir gefaellt deine Foto mit dem Frau die Laura anshaut und sagt das sie "verrueckt" ist.... ja es stimmt...

[Swamp Rat]

22. Reizen Sie mich nicht Pachamutter!

Ich will dieses Wochenende zu einem Bordell gehen un eine Orgie haben! :D

Viel danke Pachamutter! ;)

[flygal]

26. LOL - my "scheisse Deutsche" allows me to listen in ;)

[Swamp Rat]

28. Oberhammer!

:hi: Mein deutsch ist sehr schlect also! Falo o portugües y español muito melhor. :D

[Bluebear]

27. Ein orgie? Das hatte ich gerne!

Ganz toll!

[Swamp Rat]

29. Wir warten die "Entzücken!"

:D

[Hardrada]

30. Ganz besser ist's in anderen Spraeche zu konverzieren

so dann der Reichschimp nicht verstehen kann

[Swamp Rat]

33. Ja. Es ist eine gute Idee.

Das ist warum ich falo portugüese com meus amigos aqui, porque o Rei Macaco não fala e ele no habla el español bien tampoco. :)

[arcos]

35. Cuántos idiomas sabés aparte de inglés, español, portugués y alemán?

Sos todo un políglota, estoy impresionado! :hi:

[Swamp Rat]

38. !Pura vida arcos!

Estoy tratando... yo quisiera aprender Italiano ahora. :)

¿Qué está sucediendo en las noticias en Costa Rica recientemente? :hi:

[arcos]

44. Muy tuanis...

Yo siempre he querido aprender idiomas, pero soy bastante malo. Por dicha el inglés lo estoy aprendiendo desde el kinder, porque sino jamás podría.

En las noticias pues las cosas no andan muy bien... ayer asaltaron un banco en Monteverde y dejaron secuestradas a más de 20 personas durante toda la noche. Hace un par de horas la policía se metió al banco para terminar el secuestro y hay varios muertos. :cry:

[Swamp Rat]

45. ¡Ai, que pena!

:cry: :hug:

[Hardrada]

39. Und nun: Guten Abend Gut Nacht

Mit Rosen bedacht.

[Swamp Rat]

40. Boa noite

Também... com rosas pensativamente. ;):boring:

[Pachamama]

41. Oh my! What did I start here Swamp Rat? I brought up sex in a MoPaul

thread and next thing you know, everyone is talking about orgies! In multiple languages no less! Hee hee...

Sorry I missed the fun! Couldn't join in the fun because Pachapapa was out of town on biz and I was home alone with the Pachababies and fell asleep lieing next to them....

Yeah, the life of a Pachamama...not much time for orgies I'm afraid! Figures - You get to be in New Orleans and head to a house of good repute and my husband gets to be in Vegas for a conference! I want my trip to Vegas and New Orleans! One of these days, Pachamama is leaving the Pachababies with Pachapapa and I'm heading out for a weekend of fun.... hee hee....(I can dream and remember my single days eh?)

:hi:

[pen dragon]

20. Brilliant caption on laura there, swamp

I just pissed myself laughing

[Swamp Rat]

23. Danke n/t

[LibertyorDeath]

34. That's a great Pickles Pic she looks completely annihilated

[ClintonTyree]

6. Canada is a mere 2 hour drive for me...........

and it's starting to look closer every day. I see it too, and I don't like it. One of these days, I might wake up, read a specific article that will push me over the edge, and that's it. I'll go. My family and friends wouldn't be but a few hours away, and I'd be somewhere that still has a bit of sanity left.
I keep wondering which day will be the day. I hate to turn and run, but I've been fighting these fascist bastards for over 30 years now. I'm weary. I don't enjoy waking up every morning wondering what heinous act our government has committed over night. I'm tired.
2 hours away...............

[Pachamama]

19. Yep, Canada is looking like the place for me where the bus slows down as

it prepares to careen down the canyon and off a cliff....my husband and I are in the process of buying property in Canada...Its Plan B...

[HysteryDiagnosis]

8. This creature has made it so that we may need to be looking for another

planet instead of another country... sad to say.

[NickofTime]

9. Took a Detour After September 11, 2001?

Recall John Kerry's campaign statements, it takes a long time to turn the bus around, and first you've got to find a place in road wide enough to turn around. Next good chance is November 2006, that's where my efforts will be concentrated.

[natrat]

13. yea -honesty vs. diebold--oh joy

[dbt]

16. Y'all are SO going to hell for these toons!

But at least mopaul will be DRIVING the Bozo Bus! I am laughing the half of my ass that I have left right OFF!

:thumbsup:

[mopaul]

17. there's a special place in hell for cartoonists and smart asses

cause it's just too enjoyable to poke fun at morons.

[Swamp Rat]

24. Kick for a toon! n/t

That is one, funny toon! PLEASE make more! PLEEEEEEEEZE! :D

[lonestarnot]

21. I'm riddin' this bus to a cold finish! Fighting that mother fucker with

every breath everyday of my life! Bitch is not gona run me out of MY country. People are getting sick of him day by day. Day by day more are waking up to what has happened... but it's too late and going to get worse but I am tough enough to take it and come back fighting. Howard we need to hear more from you! Why have you been so quiet? Waiting!

[whitedove]

25. Wait guys, what do we really do

this shit is getting really scary... We can't go out and protest, we aren't aloud to voice our opinion.


The state of our country is not the country I want to live in, or have my children or grandchildren live in. Is this what our ancestors felt when they were taken over or when the other ancestors fled Europe?

On another sad note:
My poor son in-law who is in the army, is in training right now to go to Iraq. I don't want him or any other person to go... I don't know what to do. I feel lost and out of hope for a future for my country...

Peace,
Whitedove

[Tsiyu]

37. Welcome to DU Whitedove

Sorry about your son-in-law.
:hi:
I don't know about you, but I express myself every day, with large signs on my car, speaking up in public, here on DU.

The tide is turning against * . His most ardent supporters are dropping like flies. I don't blame those who want to safely escape; it may be an option for me at some point. But not at this point, unfortunately.

Still, i will fight with my last breath while I'm here.

Hang on, whitedove. You've found a good place here.

[Hardrada]

31. I could get out

But I am too old and tired to do so. I will have to do my part here and hope our struggles lead finally to a better society. I've seen it happen before.

[Sugarbleus]

32. LOL-->"Extreme Jesus"

YESSSSSSSSS things are spiraling out of control. I'm taking more drugs these days because of it. :hangover:

It's like being chased down the tracks by a freight train and I can't get off the tracks!! I'm EXHAUSTED and slightly burned out.

*Calling/writing representatives
*Signing petitions
*donating
*reading/researching
*talking politics all day long every day
*Fighting bureaucracies left and right to keep body and soul together
WHEW!
I stopped watching TV news; it only shows a fraction of what the problems are anyway.

[Tsiyu]

36. Well, mopaul, I was going to start off

by apologizing for us hijacking another of your threads with that pesky multi-culturalism, but looks like Swamp Rat and others are going all "furrin" again.

(You guys are the greatest with those graphics. Love the Extreme Jesus. I want to put one on every car in the local church parking lots this Sunday.

And that Swampy has eaten up my hard drive's memory, because I have to save every one of his masterpieces.)

The bus is sliding on the ice. We hope for angels ( human - and otherwise if ya got any) to slow our crash.

For what it's worth, i bought some baby chickens today. If it gets bad, mopaul, I'll give you some farm fresh eggs.

[amandabeech]

42. At least one member of our Special Forces agrees with you,

according to a poster on Yahoo's Runningonempty2, an energy-related group.

Yesterday, a poster there wrote that his/her brother-in-law was in an unspecified branch of the Special Forces. According to the poster, said brother-in-law has been telling other members of the family for 18 months that the proverbial excrement was going to hit the cooling device in a very, very big way. Said brother-in-law has been burying silver and gold in his yard since then. Members of the family think that he's nuts.

Said brother-in-law is leaving soon on a top-secret mission expected to last 439 days.

Make of it what you will.

I'd post a link to the ROE2 post, but it is a members-only forum.


On edit: Via con Dios!

[GOPBasher]

43. No, we DO have a driver, but he's driving us to the cliff on PURPOSE.

Your analogy is very good, but I'd improve it a bit, by saying that we absolutely DO have a driver, but he's purposely driving us directly over the cliff.
