This may have been posted before but it is still a good read.



You know you live in a Country run by idiots if.... An 80 year old woman can be stripped

to having her neck and head searched.

You know you live in a Country run by idiots if.... You can get arrested for expired tags on
your car but not for being in the country illegally.

You know you live in a Country run by idiots if... Your government believes that the best way
to eradicate trillions of dollars of debt is to spend trillions more of our money.

You know you live in a Country run by idiots if.... A seven year old boy can be thrown out of

diversity class in grade school is perfectly acceptable.

You know you live in a Country run by idiots if..... The Supreme Court of the United States can
rule that lower courts cannot display the 10 Commandments in their
courtroom, while sitting in front of a display of the 10 Commandments.

who appropriately discipline them while children of "underprivileged"
drug addicts are left to rot in filth infested cesspools, and do as they please.

You know you live in a Country run by idiots if.... Working class Americans pay for their own

while never being held responsible for their own choices.

There are two forces in this world that make people look really silly: Fear and Ignorance.

And there is a principle which is a bar against all information, which is proof against all arguments, and which cannot fail to keep a man in everlasting ignorance--that principle is contempt prior to investigation.

You said that very well, but it applies equally to all sides of any discussion. In my 60 years here, I have never seen my country so divided on so many issues, and so lacking in any leadership, and so many acting so foolishly. I can only pray that in the new year we start to see a change for the better.

That depends on whom it is defining "for the better". To me that would mean much smaller and less intrusive government. I'm sure the progressive socialists liberals in control of government would not agree.

I should have made that point clear!

You failed to mention all of those 'Hypocrites' & 'Elitists' in this world that make themselves look silly.

The progressive socialists liberals who think they have the answer to how everyone should live should look at how a bee hive works. In the bee hive EVERY bee works. They ALL work or the hive would cease. This system would not work for people because there are WAY to many who will NOT work. In one way I would like it if we could become the bee hive. It would come such a shock to ALL the lazy bees that they would drop dead because they would be asked to WORK!!! Can't you just see their faces if this happened!!!!

You know you live in a Country run by idiots if....ONLY the hard working producers are assessed taxation for their success and those that are slothful are rewarded from the taxation of the successful. GOT TYRANNY?

You know you live in a Country run by idiots if.... gun laws are to abridge the freedoms guaranteed by the US Constitution to law abiding citizens but criminals have protection of said Constitution when they are caught in violation of said laws.


You know you live in a Country run by idiots if....A condemned killer can have their sentence commuted to Life in Prison for the heinous crimes they committed by stating it’s “Cruel and unusual punishment” to undergo the death penalty . But an unborn fetus that has no conviction is hack up to pieces by a abortionist using taxpayers funds because it’s the humane thing to do.

You know you live in a country POPULATED by idiots if....Barack Obama not only gets elected president but then RE-elected.

You know that you live in a country full of idiots when it's okay for certain people to talk crap about all Christians and Christianity, but it's not okay for people to talk crap about other religions.

Case in point, people on this forum like 'Kwimby' who have bloviated that "Christianity is F'd up to the core" and other bigoted nonsense.

Go ahead Kwimby, cry foul to the Moderator again, you sniveling little punk.....
Maybe you can finally get me banned from the forum 'Kwimby'.....I know that's what you want, you hypocrite.

"Everything about Christianity in the USA is f'd-up all the way to the core. There is not one redeemable quality about it." -Kwimby-

Those are your exact words 'Kwimby'.....You bigoted swine.

 

[kwimby]

Judging by my first pay stub of 2013 it is getting more expensive to live in this country, that's for sure!

Looks like that practicing lying to yourself thing is working out pretty good for ya, huh?

This country is not being run by idiots. They all know exactly what they are doing, and it is all going to plan.

Shop tom is on the right track....the idiots are the ones that elect them.

As I have said here before, we will survive Obama. Will we survive the idiots that elected/re-elected him? That is the real question.

Stop flaming with each other and the name calling. If you cannot have a discussion without this then I can give everyone involved a temporary vacation from the site.
