Orlando Commented on Lou Dobbs Says He's Considering A Run For President by Jillian Rayfield

2009-11-24T00:49:05Z

Do these people not understand youtube? Dobbs has night after night after night of Jeremiah-Wright-type screeds against all sorts of things that make moderates uncomfortable. Only it's not his pastor saying them. It's him. He wouldn't even make it out of the paddock. I think it's funny he said it on Fred Thompson's radio show. I wonder if they both missed the irony.

I guess I'm in the minority, but the meta posts bug me more than the spam does. The spam I can ignore. Unfortunately, for me, ignoring the meta is as difficult as turning away from a train wreck.

Hah! Great Seinfeld reference. I was never a huge fan of the show, but the one liners do tend to live on.

Yeah. Good luck with that.

Orlando Commented on Senate Ethics Panel Admonishes Burris Over Blago Dealings, Moves On by Justin Elliott

That'll teach 'em.

I'm revising my previous opinions on Roland Burris and the Senate. He's exactly where he belongs, with like-minded individuals. The whole bunch of them make me ill.

Somewhat reasonable is a big fat oxymoron with regard to the current Republican office holders.

Orlando Commented on Pro-Life Group Says Palin 'Misleading And Unreliable' On Abortion by Evan McMorris-Santoro

2009-11-16T19:14:45Z

What I cannot understand is how we can't mess with the sanctity of life and god's plan and all that for the people who get pregnant naturally, but it's perfectly well and good to mess with god's plan if you can't get pregnant naturally and want to use science to get knocked up.

2009-11-12T20:26:03Z

Wait, you mean he's demanding an exit strategy before he commits to putting 40,000 more American soldiers in harms way? The nerve of that guy. Where's Rummy when you need him. He could turn down a request for more troops without ever even thinking about exit strategy. Boy oh boy, do I miss him.

You are going to be discombobulated for the rest of your lives.

I love that line. As a white woman who grew up in an overwhelmingly white small Midwestern town and had my eyes not just opened, but turned inside out when I went away to college in Los Angeles, I embrace the discombobulation. Maybe you could print t-shirts or something. :)

We have to accept what we have to accept? Why don't you just pat all us women on the head and tell us, "Don't worry, sweetie. The men will take care of everything. Trust us."

Jesus, could you possibly be any more condescending?

Yep. It's like a feeding frenzy for hateful people when their hate is returned. It only makes them stronger. But mock them and they lose their shit. As disgusting as they are, we should be laughing at these clowns. Loudly and repeatedly.
