Well then whip up a syphilitic camel character, so we can do some proper political cartoons. :)

I guess the only way this thread will continue to live and be about politics is if there's some right-wing propaganda to argue about. Enjoy:

Hrm, how's this?

Michael Moore is a talentless hack whose directorial skills are only slightly better than his fact-checking skills. He never produces a real documentary without corrupting, exaggerating, or utterly covering up the truth. Every so often he'll sprinkle in a few well-known facts to make it seem like everything else that dribbles out of his gaping mouth is at least a tiny bit factual.

George W. Bush is the current Commander in Chief and as such deserves at the very least, the respect of the populace for whom he serves. And his daugters are smokin' hot.

John Kerry is just a whiny little bitch hiding behind the cover of "making every vote count" so he can repeat the deadlock of the 2000 election. He somehow thought that his nomination and subsequent run for office had any relation to Al Gore's run. From his lackluster entrance due to the former democratic frontrunner's psychotic outbursts, to his seemingly endless espousing of his own greatness, Kerry's entire career became little more than a joke to most people. To top off this horrific display of immaturity and lack of understanding concerning real political debate, combined with his knee-jerk reactions to every regionally-mispronounced word or phrase, John Kerry switched positions more than a twelve year old Taiwanese prostitute. He couldn't even decide which issues he wanted to argue about. First he was all for promoting his war record, then when questions came up about said war record, he panicked and backpedaled on the issue until all he could argue was that he was a "war hero".

As for John Edwards? Edwards was little more than arm candy for Kerry's campaign. Edwards was the "pretty John" who served little more than decoration and charisma to the otherwise wooden Kerry's campaign.

In the end, the people have spoken, and their opinion is that morality is the biggest issue that concerns this country, and they have chosen George W. Bush as the harbringer of morality's phoenix-like ascent to prevalence in the collective mind of the nation.

Okay, how was that? Enough right-wing rhetoric? Hey, I can play switch-hitter. It's easy when you fucking despise both sides. :D

Although I agree he is overhyped, I haven't found a shred of evidence yet that anything he cited as fact was false. He spent a lot of time on the minority voting lockout in F9/11, and all the facts he cited were ones that I'd researched myself prior. Not a hell of a lot of people had all the facts on that.

He has a gaping mouth, yes. Since these are all generalizations, it is fairly difficult to debate any of them with pure fact.

You're playing Devil's Advocate, and I love you for it. We all know that lack of respect for authority allows people to question judgement and entertain original and counterintuitive thoughts. These can be revolutionary ideas.

I work in New Haven, Connecticut. This is the home city of Yale University, where the daughters attended and liked to party. I've heard countless stories of their drunken hideousness and seen a few pictures, so I'm going to have to disagree. Also, they both have that piggish, malicious glint their father has.

Kerry was a decorated war hero, whether people want to believe that or not. He entered the military because he chose to, and he certainly did not have to seeing as how he came from a fairly well-to-do family. After killing men in combat during his stint as a Swift Boat Commander (which subsequently was put into question by Swift Boat Veterans for truth, none of which had actually served on a Swift Boat WITH John Kerry), he came back to the States with a horrible understanding of that particular war. He made it his business to open his mouth and tell people about what he saw and did. He marched with other antiwar VIETNAM veterans and became such a thorn in Nixon's side that Nixon actually referred to him personally, with disdain, in one of Nixon's many Oval Office taped conversations. Has anyone besides me heard any of these Nixon tapes?

The point is, John Kerry DID mean something about twenty-five years ago. He DID believe in things. His time on Capitol Hill has dulled any real passion and turned him into another talking head, just like every other politician.

He was not a flip-flop artist as Bush painted him to be. Bush IS most definitely a flip-flop artist. Kerry, though, showed a near-maddening refusal to take a solid stand on most issues. His stance on gay marriage was vague at best. He was pro-civil union, but still thought marriage was a church thing. But the only time I ever heard him speak of it was in the beginning of his campaign on an MTV special.

Agreed. He was the Democrats' Dan Quayle.

Ah, but morality is most certainly in the eye of the beholder. It sure as shit ain't the government's job to dictate MORALITY. Law has a certain basis in morality, but it's more to protect the RIGHTS of citizens and not to protect their fears of being made uncomfortable.

Eh, it's still not the same. Whereas you can see both sides, MaKK was really passionate about his ignorance.

Sorry, I would say I'll try harder, but I really can't. I'll try reiterating points that I've heard before and using some Makk logic, but that's not gonna help.

Umm, let's see. For the morality cause, when the people deicde that the government should be in charge of morality and vote along the lines of said morality, they are showing that they agree with the definition of morals set forth by the administration.

Blah. This just isn't fun. I could just say that I think the Democrats were being really fucking stupid in the last race. I mean, look at the shitty fucks who actually ended up with the nomination. First Howard Dean was the frontrunner, then Lurch gets into the nomination. What the hell? You dems are falling apart. You have so many *good* politicians that you could run. And now you're all talking about putting Hillary Clinton up as the nominee for 2008?? What the hell? Just keep tossing up people who suck, and we'll keep voting for someone else guys. Now, I don't mind Edwards, but I think that in 2008, you guys should really consider that guy.. Ubama? Obama? I can't remember how it's spelled. In any case, from what I've seen of him, he's a level-headed, intelligent democrat willing to repeat all the good things that Clinton embodied, and not quite as likely to do the things that got Clinton in trouble.

I just can't vote democratic with a sound mind. Gore would have fucked my shit up if he got into office back in 2000. Yeah, Bush sucks, but I don't want Gore's wife within 10 miles of the white house. That woman has done more to censor and destroy music than the FCC, MTV, the radio, and VH1 combined. That being said, I didn't know that Bush was going to censor everything else.

I wasn't old enough to vote November 2, 2000. November 10, 2000 was my 18th birthday. So no one can blame me for this mess.

I hate Bush, but I didn't think that getting Kerry in would make the world happy and shiny. I saw other candidates and picked one I actually liked. I voted with my issues, and even against my own party on a couple occasions. The thing is, I agreed with my part on most issues I could vote for, for similar reasons.

Parties are valuable to the process, but why does everyone insist that we have to vote for one or the other? It's only that mentality that makes it true! I can't stand people who will pick up a voter guide, mark their sample ballot exactly how their voter guide tells them to, then bitch when the taxes go up again because of some stupid initiative that they voted yes on. I hear about all these people who voted for the Stem Cell Research bill, and you can bet they're the ones who are going to bitch about how much Arnold has raised taxes again.

Oh, yeah, and I actually like Arnold to an extent. He's a unique Republican. Too bad he's being choked by his own party into doing things he probably doesn't want to.

I hate parties. Anarchism does not mesh well with a real party system.

Someone isn't paying attention. Judging from his speeches, John Edwards is a firebrand populist in the tradition of Huey P. Long. Never as ballsy, but ballsy enough for this mealy-mouthed day and age.

Of his voting record, I have no idea, and it's hard to say what can be inferred from anyone's legislative voting record. That's because our legislative process is hopelessly entangled with hidden variables. His speeches are a picture of how he wants to be perceived, and I found very little in the way of "candy" about that. The biggest surprise of the election season, to me, was that the opposition didn't go after him great guns for inciting "class warfare." Maybe it was a "third rail" nobody wanted to touch.

What others say about boorite!

It's because he's a successful lawyer. Or because he's good-looking. Or maybe it's just because nobody really pays attention to Vice Presidents anyway, which is why Cheney can be so evil and get away with it.

"Nothing to see here. Look, my daughter's a lesbian. Hey, Kerry, did you know that my daugter's a lesbian?" "CHENEY'S DAUGHTER'S A LESBIAN!" "DON'T YOU DARE TALK ABOUT MY DAUGHTER! THAT'S IT! I'M GOIN' HARDCORE ON YO' ASS! *heart attack* never mind."

The war is getting worse. The "improvised explosive devices" are becoming more powerful. It seems now they can blow up tanks.

I mentioned politics. I fucking mentioned it. Let me mention some more: We marginal out-of-touch whacko lefties predicted the Iraq war would go this way, and it has. The Bushies are gloating over their election victory. What in the Lord's sweet name are they gloating over? They absolutely stink of failure and scandal. Look at this war. Just look at it. Who could gloat at a time like this? Only self-satisfied, rich-ass jerkoffs, who are never personally touched by their decisions, like our President.

Oh, did someone mention politics? Yes, yes, yes, I fucking mentioned politics some time back.

---

I like how when shit like this is predicted, when it doesn't happen immediately, the rich scumfucks and their cronies jump up and down screeching that we were all wrong.

It's a goddamn mess over there, and Afghanistan doesn't seem to be any better off from all the reports, either. There are still warlords causing trouble, and there's not a hell of a lot of stability.

But of course, we're all wrong and out of touch and we hate our country and we're actually traitorous French al-Qaeda operatives.

Fuck this country and fuck what it stands for, seriously. I'd live in a poor piece-of-shit country if I didn't think this country, being the most powerful, has a fucking responsibility to the rest of them. Whatever, I'll just get fatter and lazier and somehow poorer at the same time.

What? And miss the next exciting episode of Growing Up Gotti?

I hear you, Brother. Last job I worked, I had the opportunity to compare my pay against what the job was billed to the customer for. What an eye opener. I also got the opportunity to do some installation work in the Big Boss' house (well, one of his houses). Naturally, I had to be careful around the porsche and the other sporty number sitting in his four car garage. Both were insured as "company cars" (chortle). We had to get the job done quickly before his four month jaunt down to South Carolina started.

Before anyone suggests he worked hard for the good life, let me say two things... first, I'm not sure I've ever seen anyone work that hard. Second, this asshole inherited the business lock, stock and barrel from his daddy. He nearly ran it into the ground too before bringing in a competent partner.

Not only is the American system wearing thin for me, but I'm starting to think that maybe it's time to bring back the guillotine.

If you can't stand life in the US, you have a couple options. You can move to somwehere you think life will be better, or you can work to fix the problem. Complaining about it on the internet is going to solve absolutely nothing. Bitching about how much your country sucks just welcomes the flag wavers to start flaming you. The old saying "If you don't like it, leave" is usually only said by people who are sick of others badmouthing the country they live in. I say, if you don't like it, try to fix it. Complaining about how much this country sucks isn't going to bring it to some new age of enlightenment.
