Rant on!

Is it patriotic to go deeply into debt to foreign nations? To let billions go missing in Iraq? To let veterans commit suicide at the rate of 18 per day. 18 PER DAY!

I hope we chew them a new asshole over this using McCain's abysmal record on veteran's issues and anything else we can find.

Fuckers!

7. Well, he just explained it. Instead of "me first", country first....
I still hate him so.

Palin looks like the Saturday Night Live newscaster, who's name escapes me....

8. Tina Fey?


But let's not compare them. Tina is smart, intelligent, and a Democrat.

3. That's actually pretty weird. First over what?
I think a lot of Republicans put the order God, then Country.

5. Country over City???
Country over state? County?

It's a fucking patriotic thing, the implication that Republicans are more patriotic than dems makes me sick.

They are more xenophobic, more chauvinistic about America, it's embarrassing actually.

4. How patriotically American is it....?
1. To send hard-working American people's jobs to CHINA? Or MEXICO?

2. To hire illegal immigrants instead?

:shrug:

6. Right. I love how Obama addressed it last night...
Immigration, the third rail.

It's unkind to split families up, but immigration is also bad for Americans and it's nice to know that Obama understands the wage issue, for example.
