Edited on Tue Nov-02-10 02:07 PM by Capitalocracy
This tea party guy on CNN's IDesk just said that people in the U.S. are concerned about the riots in France and Greece, and are worried that if we can't get entitlement spending under control, the same thing might happen here!
Do I even need to point out how deliberately ignorant this statement is?
OK, just in case there are any lurking freepers who will be confused, the riots in France and Greece happened BECAUSE they cut entitlement spending and raised the retirement age!

| 2. Could you use a different word than "retarded" in your post? |
|
There are many words in English that can express your opinion that something is stupid. "Retarded" isn't acceptable. Please change your post, if you don't mind.

they love spinning shit for their own political purposes. Someone could claim the same for all others, the difference, it isn't a lie!
