THIS is what we are up against
I post on another board, an automotive board.
A question was asked about what everyone would do with a tax return.
There is a really strident guy on there and this was his response:


Refund? Like I'd plan to let Uncle Sucker keep MY MONEY!

I try and figure my withholding so that I pay a small amount. Hit it within $10 last year.

Probably will get some back this year. The a-holes in Congress didn't adjust the withholding charts after the mid-year tax cut, so as to create a situation where the gummint kept more money (i.e. STOLE it) out of your pocket.

Elect a Dem and bend-over next year, unless you're one of those leeches on society whom pay no taxes and support the Chappaquidick Splash and his buds (Teddy-boy just LOVES to give away other people's money in return for keeping the Lecherous Lush in Congress).

Let's see, there's Screamin' Dean, the self-destructing Green Mountaineer (from Park Avenue), that haughty-acting and Frenchie-looking Senator Kerry from Taxachusetts (who by the way served in Vietnam and reminds everyone every 30 minutes), ex-Gen. Weasley Clark, who was removed from his NATO duties for integrity issues, and of course pretty-boy Johnny Edwards, the ambulance-chaser extraordinare. I won't mention the rest of the Nine Dwarves, as they've either already quit or slipped below the radar, except for nutcase Dennis Kucinich, whom is somewhere over the rainbow....

Mighty fine buncha clowns, boys!

Of course, Dubya is no prize either, but the Devil you Know


I just let it slide.
I have tried to talk to this guy, but, as you see...

1. What the hell is "Frenchie-looking"?!?
Good grief. All that AND the libertarian-esque attitude that every penny you make was made solely by the sweat of your own brow, government didn't help one bit. Those roads, schools, bridges, insured banks, stock market regulation, police, fire protection, etc. didn't have anything to do with it.

3. Everybody knows that Kerry
wears a beret and a striped shirt when the cameras aren't on.

He loves baguettes, from what I hear.

2. Wouldn't it perchance be...
... news://news.f1ngers.com/F1NGers ?

We have our resident freeper there too, which is the source of much laughs (even non-strident, declared conservatives there can't stand the guy) but yours seems to be a little more literate.

8. No, it's
a board for the Honda CRX

http://resource.crx.org/

All in all though, a good bunch of people.
Lots of younger folks, sorta disconnected from the political process.
I, and a few others, try and raise their awareness.
I hammered the draft board issue not long ago.
THAT got some of their attention

11. Be sure to introduce yourself with the following sentence:
"Blimey Charlie Loves Sheep From Uranus."

Don't ask. Just do it. :evilgrin:

4. I know what you mean.........
I go to an "alleged" fishing forum fairly often. It is densely populated with wingnuts. Take a look ..........

It's hard to believe some people can be this idiotic. Chimpy lies to them with a straight face and they just soak it all right in like good little androids.

6. They're everywhere...

http://forums.ebay.com/db1/forum.jsp?forum=122&ssPageName=CMDV:FT0001

I particulary like this one:

Why do Americans take the criticism of their President personally- and seem to regard it in their own people as un-American?

The "ugly Americans" have a field day with it. One grenade....

12. Any one of the Democratic candidates is a damned sight better...

...than that drunken, coke-sniffing, unelected, AWOL fratboy we've been stuck with for the past three years.

And I notice that loser appararently has no problem with Lieberman. Big shock there!
