My mother sends me something similar to these lines everyday. It's funny how they sound so familiar to the ones I got about how Dubya was better than EVILCLINTON666.

Ask her if she would blame Obama for a terrorist attack in September.

I find it deliciously ironic that apparently the worst thing in math is math in Arabic.

:psyduck: I can't really find an analogue to that - The worst thing about English is how much it shares with German? I'm struggling here.

e: ^^^I like how they're bitching about how we're not using the constitution as a precursor to bitching about how we're not putting religious symbols in government buildings.

They also fail to realize cows don't assume fake names and are generally tagged and shipped around as freight (especially in the case mentioned with mad cow). We can't "Track down dem messicans" because we don't tag people, chop them up, and ship them around as freight. Don't give her any ideas though.

Yep, that's what every black person asks themselves when they wake up in the morning - "Who am I going to rob, carjack or shoot today?"

This e-mail doesn't make any good points and generally the writer/sender is bitching about how it was the other way 'round for a few hundred years, and it's a wound of identity that isn't exactly fully healed yet (i.e. there's still racism). Ask him when it was that a white person was ever 3/5 of a vote or when white people were owned by black people, ask about that time we invaded Sweden to kidnap swede farmers and bring them over to the US to have them work in the fields. Ask him why people can be proud to be openly Christian, Catholic, etc; but the second someone's openly Muslim, it's RED ALERT RED ALERT KEEP AN EYE ON THAT MUSLIM AT ALL TIMES HE MIGHT BLOW SOMETHING UP

Dumbfuck e-mail

Feel free to c/p and make family-friendly edits.

1: At least he was diplomatic.
2: Bush held hands with him.
3: Bush took Libya off the terrorist states list (timely and relevant to the current situation, I bet they're all fired up about the Lockerbie bomber's release)
4: Bush held hands with the king of Saudi Arabia.
5: Bolivia is better off now than they were before his election, how about that?
6: Because there was a military coup in Honduras. Only crazy people support a military coup.
7: Iranians are too busy controlling riots in their own country, not to mention that everyone who said a peep about Iran building nukes was bent on war with them.
8: This happened in 2008, under Bush's watch.
9: This was signed by Bush to take effect under the Obama administration.
10: Bush insulted anyone who has ever opened a thesaurus.
11: By putting the Iraq war on the books instead of unrecorded spending. Bush tripled it during his term.
12: If by "ICBM" you mean "dud that crashed in the water after a few hundred miles of flight"
13: Valerie Plane would like to speak with you re: released intelligence information.
14: At least they were qualified with experience in the areas over which they were nominated for oversight. Michael Brown would like to speak with you about this as well.
15: That classification was the result of a study ordered and started under the Bush administration. Unlike most things from Bush, this was somewhat correct.
16: Complete bullshit.
17: Complete bullshit.
18: Only someone with a gomer brain would interpret "Drug money from the US being used to bankroll gangs" as "It's our fault."
19: That's funny, because the Census Bureau is still part of the Dept. of Commerce. Besides, if he wanted to, he can because he's the decider. And The President. If you wanted to do something about it, maybe you should have won the 2008 election.
20: So you're now against exporting illegals? You must hate America.
21: So you would prefer we weren't killing terrorists? Geez, exactly how much DO you hate America?
22: Wasn't even his call. He wasn't in the plane. The individual who orchestrated it was fired.
23: Not even Israel would believe this lie.
24: Jimmy Carter has never and will never side with Hamas. He made a comment on the collateral damage.
25: You would have preferred Toyota buy them out? You must hate GM, a distinctly American car brand, and by proxy, America.
26: Something even Newt Gingrich thought was a fair idea. And, it won't cost homeowners a dime.
27: :lol: Medicare is government healthcare, paid for by taxpayers. Lamenting its loss would be you (an America-hating, terorrist-loving socialist) lamenting government-run, bureaucrat-run healthcare, ergo, you're a BIG FAT SOCIALIST
Bloomberg quote: Actually Daschle never said anything even remotely close to this fact. He was quoting someone else, and half of the quote you pulled out of your rear end was actually from Betsy McCaughey - Here's the quote from Daschle's book where he quotes David Mechanic of Rutgers University: "more and more of what were once seen as social, behavioral, or normative aspects of every day life, or as a normal process of aging, are now framed in a medical context. ... Whether wrinkles, breasts, or buttocks, impotence or social anxieties, or inattention in school, they all have become grist for the medical mill." It's actually speaking about medical companies trying to devise pills that take care of everything, with side effects that can be worse than the symptoms they're trying to treat.

So, if you were an upstanding citizen and actually decided to look up the lines of BS someone sent you in an e-mail, you'd come up with something like what I'm sending you. Unfortunately, you choose to believe whatever you feel like believing, instead of facing reality. Your inability to do so is why the Republican party is such a stark minority in all houses of federal government.

Okay, send this back:

George W. Bush never went to a single soldier's funeral, never a single moment of silence in a Republican controlled Congress and White House for any of the soldiers killed in Iraq or Afghanistan during the SEVEN YEARS (lolcaps) we've been in Afghanistan and the FIVE YEARS (lolcaps) we've been in Iraq. gently caress you. The Republicans are the ones filibustering and voting against measures like that that DEMOCRATS introduce. Yet, you still have the limp-dicked gutless nerve to say Democrats don't care about soldiers. loving think twice about saying you give a poo poo about soldiers, troops, military, or armed forces, and remember that any rear end in a top hat like you can buy a yellow ribbon magnet. Dailykos.com raised $57,000 to send care packages to soldiers in Iraq and Afghanistan. Who do you think cut the budget for Walter Reed hospital until mold was growing on the walls? (Hint: George W. Bush)

I say we systematically refute his letter and accompany our rebuttal with loud proclamations about what a horrible jerk he is in a vain attempt to get back at the millions of other horrible jerks who think just like him that we see on the tee vee. Who's with me?

Naw man, let's grab our strawmen and go threadshit. It'll be awesome this time, I promise. Saying someone's father is insane would be an accurate assessment when the gent fires off an email saying

quote:

Well, that is what is going on, right now, with your country. Have your heard of Bill Ayers, The Weatherman Underground, The Black Panthers….etc. This President is surrounding himself with these kind unelected, un-vetted folks and those left in the Congress that are not part of this coalition of thieves, Communists, and criminals are afraid to question (or read) any legislation before voting on it.
and doesn't care to back it up. He's wild-assed crazy, as loopy as Orly Taitz. He's saying that Obama basically made his cabinet out of Black Panthers, Weather Underground (and to follow the inference to it's logical conclusion) SLA and ELF members. Here's the thing. He's not, he didn't he hasn't, and he won't. It's insane to say that President Obama is afraid to fight a war, and in the same breath say that he surrounds himself with militant black people. It's insane. That's what it is. It's an inability to form coherent thoughts bound by the rules of logic or sanity, and saying things like President Obama being a militant pacifist marxist socialist communist fascist fits that description. So, it is correct to assert the man's father has long slipped the surly bonds of sanity, as opposed to being a whole bunch of personal bitching about how big of a horrible jerk he (and TV personalities, as you lumped in when nobody has mentioned any in discussing the crazy dad email) is.

After posing the question, I realized that I was talking about a successful Harvard Law grad. Michelle owns. gently caress the haters.

From time to time I find it therapeutic to just go after fucksticks like these with gusto. If I ran across some asswipe saying this I'd immediately jump on them with something along the lines of how it must be so unpleasant for them that the First Lady (or the President for that matter) isn't stooping in shackles over a cotton field.

If they start fumbling over not wanting to see her in shackles then admit that women weren't typically kept shackled and instead were more often kept in the house as nannies.

Then when they talk about how they wouldn't want her anywhere near their kids, ask whether they want all women to be locked in the kitchen or just black women.

Etcetera. Basically, troll them relentlessly and with abandon. Comments in the local paper tilt towards the :bahgawd: anarchists-while-a-Democrat-is-in-charge types? Caricature time. Go in guns blazing about how we really should abolish the government and how the constitution is an unjust abrogation on my rights because I sure as gently caress wasn't given a chance to sign it. Pepper the comments section about how kids shouldn't be obligated to go to school. When the municipal government does something stupid but ultimately benign, proclaim that you don't give a poo poo because taxes are literally the only thing you give a poo poo about and the city can do anything it wants as long as it doesn't raise taxes. Become the most caricatured off-the-rez nutjob you can make up, and constantly out-nut anyone and everyone. Drag them into the deep end, make them cheer for heinous poo poo. You'd be surprised at how some of the low-watt ones will go right along, agreeing that there should never be any police, that potholes are just god's way of saying taxes are too high (see, it's UNDERMINING the MARKET EVERYONE THRIVES ON) or demanding the city stop plowing streets because yours are plowed (in the city) and you don't want your hard-earned dollars going to those leeches out in the 'burbs who don't even contribute.
