an observation: GOP faux poutrages du jour are never about anything important
they're always complaining about jokes, comedians, spongebob squarepants, Tinky Winky, etc.
they never seem that upset about the tanking economy, bin ladin, or actual security issues, UNLESS its merely to blame democrats. WHAT in the hell do they ever accomplish of any real value?

1. They don't Lerk.
That's why they call big government a failure...because they have no idea what it's supposed to actually do and not do...not to mention a complete lack of priorities.

4. "they have no idea what it's supposed to actually do and not do"
I'd say we have more than our fair share of those types here on DU as well.

5. You mean the "ban this and that" crowd?
Yeah...but I don't think I fall into it for expecting single payer medical coverage. It's what governments are supposed to do...and do worldwide.

2. If liberals/progressives didn't exist, we'd still be writing on walls with coal by campfire light.
By definition, conservatives/GOP are bereft of any creativity or ideas. So of course they have nothing but poutrage. Born if self loathing from their pea sized brains.

3. An excellent observation
If they spent a tenth of the time working that they spend spewing, posing for photos, fainting and whining, we'd all be employed, healthy & rich.

6. Small minds can only fret over small matters.
