Liberals!

They think they OWN us, and can do as they damn well please while dictating behavior to us.



Yes, they can.

Only until people say, "Oh yeah - THAT'S why we kicked the bums out last time around!"

And we get a new election...

Yeah, okay - that figures. If the Republicans had plans in the works to raise sin taxes as a means of taking control of your life it would be headline news everywhere.

When the Democrats do it though - you don't even hear about it at all, unless it's buried in a story labeled, "DEMOCRATS REALLY, REALLY CARE ABOUT THE CHILDREN" or something.

Here are a few links for you:

That's not exactly the kind of "sacrifice" Obama keeps preaching that everyone else needs to make though.

Is it.

You can bet I'm bookmarking this comment and that I'll bring it up the next time I catch you pontificating about the eviiiiiiiiiiiiils of Global Warming, and how all the so-and-so Conservatives don't care about the planet.

That means he'll use less A/C in the summer.

Status: offline 		hiyas Sanity, as I said, I just found out that little snippet, thanks for the links, but honestly I have my own issues with any canadian politicians for raising sin taxes no matter they be tories or libs.
I know over the past eight years I have been visiting WV the price  of smokes has increased humungously altho they are still cheaper than ontario.

Status: offline 		In the uk, we have a term for it, its called "winding people up to take the piss" and some are better at it than others.
When more shocking and  news like losing 100,000 jobs in the first three days of the week in the US alone doesnt have its own post, Or that the SCHIP bill has only made it at the ass end of this thread, I cant take it seriously, and try to treat comments with the respect they deserve:) that or block them .

Indeed. I'm still holding on to all my outrage until he (or someone on his staff) does something really stupid like outing an active CIA agent for his or their own political gain. Or perhaps accusing a foreign leader of producing unconventional weapons, going to war, and then finding out there really weren't any such weapons to begin with...You know, that sort of inexcusable stupidity...

Hey, I know, we should nominate someone as the White House Thermostat Czar to be sure this temperature incident doesn't repeat itself in the future... But let's add a twist... We won't give the new Czar any power to actually change the thermostat, he or she will simply monitor it and report the findings to the President... I think it's a great idea, what could go wrong?

You know what, mike?

You're right. It absolutely does not matter where the President of the United States sets the thermostats for the vast White House mansion, because Global Warming is pure mythological bull shit.

There is no reason to worry about Global Warming ever again. Just follow the lead of the head of the Democrat party and just set your thermostat where ever it feels best, because it doesn't matter even a little bit.

In fact, gas up your big old Chevy suburban and go on long Sunday drives! Crank up the AC way low this coming summer - and don't let your conscience bother you not even the slightest because it doesn't fucking matter.

And woo-hoo - President Obama is leading the way!
