There is your problem right there. Oh, and the fact that you are on Facebook.

Although I'm not an Obama fan by any means, It's annoying hearing people say dumb stuff about Obama. I'm from Texas, so I see it a lot! I like to poke fun at things I think are dumb no matter what side of the political spectrum.

1) Protest is free speech and should be allowed, especially on important issues such as healthcare.

2) You're not an extremist, but you are a douche.

3) :camera: of the girl who defriended you plz.

How am I a douche?

Claiming that things like healthcare are sacred and not up for debate :roll:. Give me a break.

Just because I didn't explicitly say in my previous posts that you're an argumentative asshat? Ok, now I said it.

You FAIL for arguing politics with girls over Facebook, you FAIL for caring that your moron friend "defriended" you, you FAIL for creating this thread, and you EPIC FAIL for not providing pics of the girl.

Does that elucidate things enough for you? If not, please crawl back into your hole in P&N. :)

I was kind of sad I read down this far until this little gem popped up.
Another self-owning fail by Fritolays.

Another sucker falls for an obviously sarcastic comment about left wingers complaining about right wingers protesting.

All of my status updates are what one would expect from me: acerbic and/or sarcastic, including all comments I leave to people's statuses on facebook. I only tone it down a tiny tiny bit so as not to offend certain people on my facebook.

People who play Devil's Advocate on people's facebook statuses are pretty much the definition of "douche".

OTHER 2: I want to make stupidity illegal. That goes for the protesters AND the politicians. Sentence: Death. Timeframe: Immediate.

quoted for gold....and yet the OP's ex-FB friend calls HIM extremist? :confused:

and yes, protest is protected speech under the 1st amendment insofar as the govt. cannot censor speech based purely on viewpoint (she's saying naughty things about Obama, but I LOVE Obama!), but it can take into account 'time and place', public security, etc.

I've seen some of the things you've posted and wonder if you're leaving stuff out of this thread?

My last statuses were about:

A fat guy hiding a gun in his fat.

Wondering why a road was backed up.

Parodying the cash for clunkers. (I like the bill minus the waste in destroying working cars.)

Complaining about Apple not allowing Google Voice.

Ending my internship and going back to school.


Does my status have a conservative slant? Of course.

Do I enjoy sarcasm? Yes.


Am I'm a right wing extremist. No, but, of course, you label anything right of middle as a right wing extremist.


Anyone who posts or speaks by asking and then answering their own questions cannot be allowed in civilized society. That's what happened here; everyone knows this.
