emember when teachers, public employees, Planned Parenthood, and PBS crashed the stock market, wiped out half of our 401Ks, took billions in TARP money, spilled oil in the Gulf of Mexico, gave themselves billions in bonuses, and paid no taxes? No, me neither.

I ran across that very same FB thing! While I didn't chuckle, I did snicker a bit. (I do like that kind of sarcasm) [;)]

They may not have been taking "TARP" money but theyve been sucking up ungodly sums of TAX money since time began, and theres not a lot of difference except for the name. Planned Parenthood and PBS dont pay taxes, and the "services" they provide are contemptible, at least oil companies give me the freedom to drive my vehicle where I want whenever I want, and I do love my freedom. Barney Frank crashed the stock market, more than anyone... he was a Dem the last time I checked, too. Takes a lot of bribes, er, donations from the unions and has a lot of other shady deals lurking as well. And union bosses never take bonuses? Since when. quote: ORIGINAL: dcnovice emember when teachers, public employees, Planned Parenthood, and PBS crashed the stock market, wiped out half of our 401Ks, took billions in TARP money, spilled oil in the Gulf of Mexico, gave themselves billions in bonuses, and paid no taxes?

Teachers and public employees have been sucking up tax money? quote: the "services" they provide are contemptible So teaching about STDs and doing mammograms and such are now contemptible quote: at least oil companies give me the freedom to drive my vehicle where I want whenever I want, and I do love my freedom Until it hits a price range you cant afford, then you will be screaming like everyone else. quote: Barney Frank crashed the stock market, more than anyone That one you will have to explain. quote: And union bosses never take bonuses? Bet I can name a list of executives who have received at least a billion in bonus longer than you can union bosses who have done the same.

SUCKING, and the quality of their work is SUCKING too quote: So teaching about STDs and doing mammograms and such are now contemptible You knew what I meant, please dont play stupid. "aborting" "fetuses" is contemptible, with one caveat quote: Until it hits a price range you cant afford, then you will be screaming like everyone else. Your beloved government is doing far more to keep fuel prices high than the free market ever can or will quote: That one you will have to explain. Ive gone over it many times on these boards but I just dont have time right now to explain it again for you quote: Bet I can name a list of executives who have received at least a billion in bonus longer than you can union bosses who have done the same. Maybe, but regardless - theyre crime bosses, many of them. Mobsters and goons with politicians in their pockets and gobs of union dues (read TAX monies) stuffed into their mattresses

quote: SUCKING, and the quality of their work is SUCKING too You still dont explain how they are sucking up the tax dollars. quote: You knew what I meant, please dont play stupid. "aborting" "fetuses" is contemptible, with one caveat So, because 3% of the services they provide, which is payed for by private donations and fees collected for this service, the whole organization must fall? Shall we go back to back-street abortions? quote: Your beloved government is doing far more to keep fuel prices high than the free market ever can or will I wasnt aware OUR federal government was into futures and speculations on the stock market. quote: Maybe, but regardless - theyre crime bosses, many of them. Mobsters and goons with politicians in their pockets and gobs of union dues (read TAX monies) stuffed into their mattresses Crime bosses... not much different than those who were illegally trading derivatives, those who were robbing their portfolios, or those who were cashing in on the ignorance of the public. But, as far as I recall.. union dues are not taxpayer money. Union dues are a regular payment of money made by members of unions. Dues are the cost of membership; they are used to fund the various activities which the union engages in. Nearly all unions require their members to pay dues.

No, me neither. This just might be,in terms of sheer lies,bullshit and slime,your best work yet sanity...congratulations. You are unique...a complete tool(as Ron so eloquently put it) and an ass(my contribution) but unique.
