Hilarious! Another patriotic conservative turns out to be.....

[Warpy]

"A promoter who threw around big names and had big plans for a rally to support U.S. troops was stopped cold on Thursday. The Downtown Action Team, the police and fire departments and Kirtland Air Force base decided the big plans put forth by promoter Richard Espinoza just didn’t add-up.

"One reason for the lack of support for the rally may be Espinoza’s criminal record"

What was that line about patriotism, refuges, and scoundrels?

5. Patriotism

The quote is "Patriotism is the last refuge of a scoundrel."-Dr Samuel Johnson. Appropriate in McCarthy's time, appropriate now.

6. Thanks. Another one for my file.

I started it a while ago for some ammunition against the conservative idiots screaming for "Republican Family Values" (the title of my file, an MS Word doc). I opened the file to all those great American repukes that scream "Family Values" while doing just the opposite in their private lives.

Thought I would keep a few references and then move one. Well.....it turned into a bit of an obsession. With your posting I now have 109 pages!! Most pages have multiple entries, so there are about 250+ stalwart, and better-true-red-white-and-blue repuke Americans in the file. Everything from adultery, to closet homosexuality, to fraud, to murder. Great bunch of guys. Just the type America needs to keep us on the straight and narrow (minded).

Makes ya' feel real proud!
