1. Disagree. Given the ham-handed meaness that characterizes all wingnut imagery . . .
A little silliness is not only refreshing, but downright progressive.

5. "Higher standards" is an odd thing for a person of your proclivities to ask for
Google yourself sometime mate. Oh and yes, there COULD be another LLStarks out there on the 'nets, but given your avatar... nope. That's you.

6. It would be too far
Edited on Tue Aug-18-09 02:40 AM by lapfog_1
if, instead of a mechanical boxing glove, we had an image of a bullet, leaving a gun barrel and smashing through each GOPer head, exploding them as it went, leaving a trail of skull fragments, brain tissue and of blood... all while having the Matrix style "air path" behind it.

oh wait... that's just my sick fantasy.

the mechanical boxing glove is both silly and a tradition now.

Find something else to complain about.

9. You mean the nutwingers who have succeeded in getting the prez to back down on the public option
that has suddenly become disposable? I say we need more of the nutwinger tricks.
