Where the gently caress did that comment come from? ARgh! Also, I agree with your statement that my responses were trite, but it's facebook, and I'm half-assed arguing with my family member.

Half-arguing and giving in just makes you that dumb liberal who got totally owned and reinforces their belief in whatever stupid crap they posted. Post the same status update but translated into Cherokee.

There's definitely documentary evidence that smallpox inoculation was attempted, but it probably didn't work because the Indians likely were infected already. I found this with a simple Google search, so why couldn't Gene?

It also says that the small pox outbreaks could easily have been caused by grave robbery. That's not very good evidence for a biological warfare campaign.

I don't have any more crazy forwards, I told my dad for every email he sent that I would give money to the DNC. The last one he sent me was the last straw. It pictured lots of people in mugshots, mostly black, and all wearing their Obama 08 shirts. My dad is generally a smart guy, I've looked up to him all my life. But he finds Fox News credible and voted for Romney.

Face book post:W**** ****** posted:Last night's Presidential speech--new twist on the same old policies and far left progressive extreme agenda of our Pres. and his administration. What I expected. Still blaming the past which they can't, still going to over spend, etc. This first year of the "administration" a big waste. They must think we "the peop...le" are stupid. Can't waite for midterm elections in Nov. Among mostly unremarkable comments to that, a gem shines: M**** **** posted:I still find people everyday who are blinded by Obama's lies. It makes me want to punch them in the nose hoping to knock some sense into them! edit: I posted an attempt at asking them to be mature and it was deleted. Nihilanthic at one point posted:With that attitude, you won't convince anyone who doesn't already agree with you of anything, though you may get a clap from someone who is already on your side.

To be frank, if I would be disowned from my family over THAT, they did me a favor by not speaking to me.

gently caress the French, gently caress the UN, and thinly veiled racism? Hot poo poo. Just received this e-mail. Checked with Snopes. Not listed. But sounds typical of current events and policies. Ben Subject: Haiti I worked on the FEMA team during Houston flood Allison but as an SBA rep, estimating damages to the flooded homes, I did feel like I was on the B team as it were but at least got to go back to my flooded home that did have a working bathroom and an unscathed upstairs every night., not what these guys endured. What else, the part of Air Traffic priority, the air force not having clear control of their expertise is extremely appalling This was forwarded to me by a Army retired friend in Alabama..... It's enough to gag a magot!! FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO WANT TO KNOW WHAT IS REALLY GOING ON IN HAITI, YOU'LL FIND THIS INTERESTING. PARDON SOME OF THE LANGUAGE -- IT'S FROM A MILITARY GUY. MUCH OF IT IS POSITIVELY INFURIATING. Subject: Haiti Diary BG Mike Seely (U.S. Army - Ret.) forwarded this from a friend that just returned from Haiti. To All, I just returned from Haiti with Hebler. We flew in at 3 AM Sunday to the scene of such incredible destruction on one side, and enormous ineptitude and criminal neglect on the other. Port o Prince is in ruins. The rest of the country is fairly intact. Our team was a rescue team and we carried special equipment that locates people buried under the rubble. There are easily 200,000 dead; the city smells like a charnal house. The bloody UN was there for 5 years doing apparently nothing but wasting US Taxpayers money. The ones I ran into were either incompetent or outright anti american. Most are French or french speakers, worthless every drat one of them. While 1800 rescuers were ready, willing and able to leave the airport and go do our jobs, the UN and USAID ( another organization full of little OBamites and communisrts that openly speak against America), these two organizations exemplared their parochialism by: USAID, when in control of all inbound flights, had food and water flights stacked up all the way to Miami, yet allowed Geraldo Rivera, Anderson Cooper and a host of other left wing news puppies to land. Pulled all the security off the rescue teams so that Bill Clinton and his wife could have the grand tour, whilst we sat unable to get to people trapped in the rubble. Stacked enough food and water for the relief over at the side of the airfield then put a guard on it while we dehydrated and wouldn't release a drop of it to the rescuers. No shower facilities to decontaminate after digging or moving corpses all day, except for the FEMA teams who brought their own shower and decon equipment, as well as air conditioned tents. No latrine facilities, less digging a hole, if you set up a shitter everyone was trying to use it. I watched a 25 year old Obamite with the USAID shrieking hysterically; berate a full bird colonel in the Air Force, because he countermanded her orders, whilst trying to unscrew the air pattern. "You don’t know what your president wants! The military isn't in charge here we are!" If any of you are thinking of giving money to the Haitian relief, or to the UN don't waste your money. It will only go to further the goals of the French and the Liberal left. If we are a fair and even society, why is it that only white couples are adopting Haitian orphans? Where the hell is that vocal minority that is always screaming about the injustice of American society? Bad place, bad situation, but a perfect look at the new world order in action. New Orleans magnified a thousand times. Haiti doesn't need democracy, what Haiti needs is Papa Doc. That’s not just my opinion, that is what virtually every Haitian we talked with said. The French run UN treat us the same as when we were a colony, at least Papa Doc ran the country. Oh, and as a last slap in the face the last four of us had to take US AIRWAYs home from Phoenix. They slapped me with a 590 dollar baggage charge for the four of us. The girl at the counter was almost in tears because she couldn't give us a discount or she would lose her job. Pass that on to the flying public. Nick Thanks Nick. Bonus signature: Remember when Ronald Reagan was president. We also had Bob Hope and Johnny Cash... Now we have Obama and no hope and no cash.
