Yeha both threads started based on Republican chain emails.
Op should consider thinking for himself vs rampant regurgitation.

I do find it strange that a 13-year lurker here is posting this kind of nonsense, but then again the stupidity of people is something that has long since ceased to surprise me.

Waiting for Chris A starting a thread blaming the Obama administration for the various Nigerian Princes wanting you to send them money? I'm eagerly waiting for him to tackle the hard hitting story of how Obama's goons are placing HIV positive syringes at gas stations for innocent Republicans to prick themselves with when they pump gas.

Wow OP fails on so many levels but it was a fun read!
Speaking of which, here is my favorite right wing wine, vintage 2012 (apologies if posted elsewhere, from a whacko at libertarianrepublicandotnet):


"The end of liberty in America: Only course of action now is to fight back, electoral politics not working
Time to tell any Democrats you know to fuck off and die
by Eric Dondero
This may be my last post here at Libertarian Republican for quite some time, possibly forever. I had a long discussion with my friend Jim "Right Guy" Lagnese last night. He has agreed, tentatively to take over this website. I cannot think of a better person to run things. He has a good head on his shoulders. He has the absolute right ideology, a Ron Paul Constitutionalist who recognizes the evils of Islam, and supports a strong military, defense of America and of course, our personal rights to gun ownership. Please give Jim all your support in the coming weeks, months, and possibly years.
Dr. Clifford Thies will still be contributing of course. Jim will take great care to publish all his numerous articles, and witty commentary. I am deeply grateful to my dear friend Clifford for all he has done to assist me since I started this website 6 years ago.
Now, that said. Firstly, I was wrong. I let my optimism get the best of me. I even lashed out at Thomas L. Knapp a time or two, saying he was nuts for his predictions. Tom was right. I was fantastically wrong. We were crushed last night at all levels, most especially in the Senate races. There is virtually no good news from last night's results for the libertarian wing of the GOP. I apologize Tom. I hope you can see fit to accept my apology.
Secondly, today starts a new course for my life. I've soured on electoral politics given what happened last night. I believe now the best course of action is outright revolt. What do I mean by that?
Well, to each his own. Some may choose to push secession in their state legislatures. Others may choose to leave the U.S. for good (Costa Rica, Switzerland, Italy, Argentina, Hong Kong, Israel). Still others may want to personally separate themselves from the United States here in North America while still living under communist rule' the Glenn Beck, grab your guns, food storage, build bunkers, survivalist route. I heartily endorse all these efforts.
Express your hatred, shame, and outright disgust with anyone you know who voted Democrat
However, for me, I'm choosing another rather unique path; a personal boycott, if you will. Starting early this morning, I am going to un-friend every single individual on Facebook who voted for Obama, or I even suspect may have Democrat leanings. I will do the same in person. All family and friends, even close family and friends, who I know to be Democrats are hereby dead to me. I vow never to speak to them again for the rest of my life, or have any communications with them. They are in short, the enemies of liberty. They deserve nothing less than hatred and utter contempt.
I strongly urge all other libertarians to do the same. Are you married to someone who voted for Obama, have a girlfriend who voted 'O'. Divorce them. Break up with them without haste. Vow not to attend family functions, Thanksgiving dinner or Christmas for example, if there will be any family members in attendance who are Democrats.
Do you work for someone who voted for Obama? Quit your job. Co-workers who voted for Obama. Simply don't talk to them in the workplace, unless your boss instructs you too for work-related only purposes. Have clients who voted Democrat? Call them up this morning and tell them to take their business elsewhere.
Have a neighbor who votes for Obama? You could take a crap on their lawn. Then again, probably not a good idea since it would be technically illegal to do this. But you could have your dog take care of business. Not your fault if he just happens to choose that particular spot.
And start your boycott of your Democrat friends and family today. Like this morning. First thing you can do, very easy, is to un-friend all Democrats from your Facebook account.
Boycott Business who accept Welfare payments
Thirdly, I believe we all need to express disgust with Obama and Democrats in public places. To some extent I already do this. Example:
When I'm at the Wal-mart or grocery story I typically pay with my debit card. On the pad it comes up, "EBT, Debit, Credit, Cash." I make it a point to say loudly to the check-out clerk, "EBT, what is that for?" She inevitably says, "it's government assistance." I respond, "Oh, you mean welfare? Great. I work for a living. I'm paying for my food with my own hard-earned dollars. And other people get their food for free." And I look around with disgust, making sure others in line have heard me.
I am going to step this up. I am going to do far more of this in my life. It's going to be my personal crusade. I hope other libertarians and conservatives will eventually join me.
What I plan to do this week, is to get yard signs made up, at my own expense, that read, "EBT is for Welfare Moochers." I will put the signs out on public property off of the right-of-way so it's entirely legal, in front of every convenience store or grocery store that has a sign out saying "EBT Accepted Here." I may even do some sign waving in front of these stores, holding up my "EBT is for Welfare Moochers," sign, and waving to passers-by.
If I meet a Democrat in my life from here on out, I will shun them immediately. I will spit on the ground in front of them, being careful not to spit in their general direction so that they can't charge me with some stupid little nuisance law. Then I'll tell them in no un-certain terms: "I do not associate with Democrats. You all are communist pigs, and I have nothing but utter disgust for you. Sir/Madam, you are scum of the earth." Then I'll turn and walk the other way.
Buttons. Boy, you can have a lot of fun with this. I plan to make up a bunch of buttons, and wear them around town, sayings like "Democrats are Communist Pigs," or "Welfare moochers steal from hard-working Americans," "Only Nazis support Seat Belt laws" or "No Smoking Ban: Nanny-Staters go Fuck Yourselves."
There are so many other nasty little things I plan to do against the communists and those who support them. Perhaps I'll keep Jim informed and he can report on my activities here at LR.
For now, off to my first assignment: Telling all my friends and family who voted for Obama to "fuck off, don't ever speak to me again you slimeball mother fuckers." Wish me luck!
Here's my Facebook Page. Watch me as I get started on my new lifetime crusade."

Ah delicious! ;)

Jeez I was picturing an angsty teenager hopped up on Mountain Dew and hormones, but a grown man wrote that.

Another post from before the election.
Help stop rampant Moocherism

by Eric Dondero

I'm all set for Halloween eve. I set up a table outside of my door at my south Texas home, with a variety of wrapped candy from the local Wal-mart. But I put a sign up next to the table that reads:

Trick or Treaters - Welcome Republican Families! No Democrats

I've got my very cute dog Keesha standing watch. She's wearing a scarf with a Romney pin on it. I also have a Romney/Ryan bumper sticker on the table. And I put out a stack of Romney/Ryan literature just in case.

I urge all other libertarians to do the same. If their parents are voting for Obama, do not! allow them to mooch candy off of you. No doubt they're receiving some sort of government paycheck already, or food stamps. Why pay for them twice?

This guy needs some help.

To be totaly honest it was started by a friend but I took off on it and did about 80% so flame me for my rant. You are correct though it started as a email

So the next time you claim to be passing on a story from "a friend" (like your goofy tax thread) we can just realize that e-mail forwards and blogs are your only friends?

But thanks about warning me about the return of the USSR. In Soviet Russia, threads post you!

Congratulations to the Democrats and Young People! You now own it and you can't blame Bush.
The next terrorist attack you own it.

Americans killed under obama by terrorist attacks on civilians on 9/11, 4. Americans killed under bush by terrorist attacks on civilians on 9/11, 2996. Obama is still doing better.

Can't get a job after graduation, you own it.
Stop majoring in underwater basket weaving or comparative literature.

Sky rocketing energy prices due to Obama's EPA shutting down the energy producing states, you own it.
Shutting down the energy producing states? Pretty sure they are still there. See natural gas production for example.



A nuclear Iran, you own it.
Israel owns it.

Bowing to the Soviet Union, you own it.
I think this email is a little old.

Another severe recession, you own it.
I suppose obama can own up to the next one when the republicans own up to the last one.

A volatile border with Mexico, you own it.
True this is a mess for everyone. The border really just needs to have a massive frickin wall. With a moat. With sharks with lasers on their frickin heads.

Trouble getting good health care, you own it.
As a type 1 diabetic I figure have a better shot with preexisting conditions stuff thrown out the window so I think I'm better off.

Higher health insurance costs and health care costs, you own it.
If costs go up as they have been, it's shitty, but it's also a continuation.

No budget, you own it.
True

Our allies mistrust, you own it.
Cool story bro.

Another trillion of debt, you own it.
I thought deficits didn't matter? Or is there a set number of points where the step function turns to f(t) = 1 for deficits mattering and f(t) = 0 for deficits not mattering?

More Benghazi situations, you own it.
Agreed.

No one willing to join the military, you own it.
Military recruiting remains strong, as all active and reserve components of the U.S. Armed Forces met or exceeded recruiting and retention goals during the month of June 2012.

On July 23rd, the Department of Defense announced recruiting and retention statistics. For the active duty forces, the numbers broke out as follows. Accessions to the Army were 42,538, which was 101 percent of the goal. Accessions to the Navy were 24,854, 100 percent of the goal. Accessions to the Marine Corps were 18,391, 100 percent of the goal; and the Air Force, accessions were 21,332, 100 percent of the goal.


Trouble getting a loan to buy a home, you own it.
I'm not sure how true this one is, although it has more to do with banks than anyone else. But I agree, this could at least feasibly be thrown at his feet to some degree.

More dependency on food stamps, you
own it.
Most programs such as these are described and legislated by laws that have been around for a while.

Trouble finding good employment, you own it.
Blame congress.

Several part time jobs instead of a good job, you own it.
As above.

A World Government, you own it.
Have you been hanging out with juror no. 8 too much?

The UN governing the United States instead of ourselves, you own it.
See above.

A Senate that will not bring any legislation to the table even if it is "Dead on Arrival", you own it.
Congress sucks.

China controlling our world trade trampling all over us, you own it.
Someone should nuke our trade agreements but that is another discussion.

Loss of our freedoms as we have known it in the past, you own it.
This is a good reason to vote against the two main parties.

A dictatorship instead of a democracy that follows the Constitution, you own it.
See comments above on juror no. 8. Also, lay off the weed (unless you are in colorado in which case, enjoy! ;) )

Less take home pay and higher living costs, you own it.
Unless you are in the 1%!

Driving a car that looks like a toy, you own it.
With less take home pay, 30mpg is a tad cheaper than 10 mpg.

More government corruption and lies, you own it.
While this administration has been arguably much better than certain previous ones, I think holder is terrible (and I believe/hope he will be resigning). THe petraeus stuff is also.......strange.

More toleration of extreme and fanatical Islamists, you own it.
Obama has killed more terrorists by far than bush by drones, plus osama, etc etc etc. Of course, whether or not we should continue that is a good debate, but the idea that we have more tolerance of extreme islamist fanatics is silly.

Terrorist attacks called work place incidents, you own it.
eh?

Your revenge instead of love of country, you own it.
A couple stupid tweets (or whatever this is a reference to) make a bad starting point for a generalization of a large group of people. (this goes for R and D). Although, at least with mccain vs obama, there was no doubt that mccain did truly care for this country and its people (look at the dude's history); with romney's 47% remark, that is very much in doubt. Obama pretty clearly cares for this country and its people as well. I don't think any of the nutcases at the fringes of either party ever really did, though.
President
George Bush is out of it now, and
there is not another good man for you to vilify and lie about. In a way
I am relieved that another good man will not be blamed when it was
impossible to clean up this mess you voted for. Have a good day.
I tend to be of the belief that most intelligent republicans figured the next four years were going to suck and whoever is in power will be hated afterward which is why everyone in the primaries was either mitt romney or a total retard. I hope that isn't the entire makeup of the republican party these days. Although to be fair, mitt romney can cover a lot of positions so that alone makes it a decent "big tent" party.
End rant have a good day :)
You too!

Nice job fellow type one'er!

I appreciate your circling back this way. I imagine most of us longtime members (certainly including me) have posted some regrettable things after tying one on at one time or another.

I know right? Question is, which other conservative idiot will be next?

Maybe if people like you stopped referring to politically opposed posters as "idiot" in every post, more people would think that you are worth responding to, or that their comments/retractions are a waste of time.
