    It appears nobody else did either... or at least not more than a handfull scattered across the country. Assuming anyone is able to locate any to prove that ANYONE has.

    More proof that the flocks of Obamies are abandoning the Cult of Obama daily.

    About the only loyal followers that believe every word the man says appears to be the drive by media these days. I won't defame the word Journalists... because none of them act like journalists... because they are in reality Propagandists.

    You can say that word here but not Cheney's first name? I love some good name calling, too. I'm not going to pretend to subscribe to some to new era of civility either... I'm not a hypocrite like those damned left-wingers. :D

    Not only have at least 18 Wisconsin Senators received death threats, Time Magazine apparently feels violent political imagery is fine in this "new era of civility."

    Wisconsin's Governor Wins But Is He Still Dead Man Walker?


    Apparently the new era of civility is just like the old one...

    Hello again, Steve:

    It is. You can't make people nice just because you want them to be nice. But, I'm perplexed. You don't think you have a corner on nice, do you??

    Bwa, ha ha ha...

    Nothing to laugh at, I enjoy getting into the rhetorical fight. No one has a corner on nice, but I'm damned tired of the liberal media and good progressives everywhere posing as moralists and preaching down their noses at me to play nice while ignoring their own thuggish behavior.

    Hello again, Steve:

    I don't know, Steve. It sounds like YOU'RE the one preaching and acting all righteous when you call THESE guys thugs, and give a pass to the Tea Party for acting the way they did at the town hall's during the health care debate.

    Face it. We're ALL a$$holes.

    Um, admitting I don't always play nice is acting righteous? Funny world you live in.

    What pass did I give?

    No, I call a spade a spade even when I'm the spade. That's the difference between me and the thugs on the left, I admit my faults, they don't believe they have any.

    P.S. This isn't about me.

    Time for a civility update. Wisconsin union workers showed their civil side by tearing down an AFP tent with women and children inside (probably some of the 26,000 Michigan students out of school because teachers refuse to teach today)..



    Good thing they aren't like that awful Tea Party.

    Steven Crowder got the full union treatment today in Michigan as well... punched 4 times and yanked back by his collar to get some more abuse.



    He probably deserved it though right? I have some close friends going to Michigan for Christmas, maybe they should reconsider considering the coming civil war Jimmy Hoffa apparently intends to wage.

    Quote:

    “This is just the first round of a battle that’s going to divide this state. We’re going to have a civil war,” Hoffa said on CNN’s “Newsroom.”
    Surely union thugs don't own guns do they?

    No, I agree with Karma, there is much evidence to support the theory

    Every single day on this forum there are multiple postings about the stupid, mean-spirited things that americans do to each other. Apparently there is an endless supply of material. No other citizens of any other country do that here. The place must be a cesspool.

    I would agree Karma that they seem to have a strange approach to problem solving, everything must be wrapped in rhetoric and immersed in political correctness

    I understand. And being that most of us are from one country or another it doesn't represent the real world. Is america going crazy.. yes. So are many other countries. For us it is a matter of trying to make everyone happy. It never works and never will work.

    Even in your home country there are problems of many flavors. Im not sure of the true root of it or if its just "our" world adjusting to technology. It seems anyone with an opinion can post everything about nothing. And too many are getting upset. Who knows where its all going to lead.

    Nah, I think it's just a few that are full of hate and have access to a keyboard and the internet.

    An absolute reflection of this board and the world in general. The Muslims are revolting, well they are revolting anyway, The North Koreans are testing rockets, a falorn hope they might ever reach the USA, the Iranians are twisting the tail on the tiger, the americans are obscessed with jumping or falling off the cliff, the nutcases are obscessed with 12.21.12 forgetting the importance of 12.12.12, Are there problems in my country, it seems no one wants to talk about those, even if they have the drama of events in other places
