Too bad natural selection didn't work on her.

Too bad somebody didn't cap the bitch while they were filming...that would have been hugely entertaining!   :biggrin:
Arguing with Christians is like playing chess with a pigeon.  No matter how good I am at chess, the pigeon is just going to knock over the pieces, shit on the board and strut around like it's victorious.

The truth is slow, but relentless. Over time it becomes irresistible.

Sadly they are going to make this woman a hero on some networks and she'll get her 15 minutes of fame like Joe the unemployed plumber!

Why the rolleyes you two?  Aren't we speaking the truth in pointing out this obvious ignorance?

all I hear is a bunch of redneck talk...."capping the bitch"..."the earth is flat"..."a black man forcing white children to listen"..and redneck cartoons...THIS is the kind of crap, that makes this forum NOT worth commenting on...WHY?, WHY waste my time when THIS is the kind rhetoric replies.....

I laugh AT, not with.

Like these mental midgets from North Cackalacky?  I'm talking about the idiots at the fair, and not the principal.

Watch that video there and you'll see a couple of people at the fair who just exude redneck and ignorant.

"capping the bitch"


:rotfl:  I don't think that's redneck talk HH; Ex was making a joke!

..."the earth is flat"...

Sadly, some still believe that crap HH.  And don't forget about the big man in the sky who farted it all out!

"a black man forcing white children to listen"..

I posit that's the exact issue that many people are having with this speech.  If you think that's not what it's about for many, you have blinders on.  Racism still abounds.

and redneck cartoons...

The play on Goofus and Gallant was hilarious!   All of you who are screaming about Obama and his policies were amazingly quiet while Bush was trampling all over the Constitution of this country.  But then again, he was protectin' your asses from the turrorists so I guess it was okay.  :rolleyes:

again... :rolleyes:

you are talking about a vast few that represent the Average American that is not happy with the potus.....I did not vote for him for a reason....I disagree with his ideology, that has been catapulted into a distrust of not just him, but congress in general.  These townhalls are NOT just rednecks...they are REAL people, despite what you keep telling yourselves.

Why is it so hard for you guys to understand, that we just don't like liberal views.....and we don't want liberal ideology so we are taking a stand against it.  I have NO hatred at all towards anyone...but I have strong dislike for the ideology itself.

the posters on here who have nothing better to do than CRACK on spelling and put themselves on a pedestal do nothing to encourage intelligent conversation on here.....making fun of "me" and slamming others, along with myself, for stating honest, heartfelt opinions does nothing but show the true character and therefore makes replying on here somewhat of a waste.....

The text of the speech was and is online and I challenge anyone to tell me what about it can even remotely be construed as anything other than encouragement for students to do well in school from a man who personifies the idea that here in the Unites States, you can come from humble beginnings and through hard work and tenacity grow up to be the president.  If you can't find anything objectionable in the speech, the only thing left is racism, plain and simple.

Please stop talking about the average American as though you represent us; you do not by a long shot.
