You're WRONG

so for those conservatives (Robert on this site) who have claimed that this is a "Christian Nation" obviously have either no concept why we were founded or they must hate it. Either way. You want proof how WE ARE NOT DETERMINED TO BE A CHRISTIAN NATION I present quotes from the people who founded it:

1. “If I could conceive that the general government might ever be so administered as to render the liberty of conscience insecure, I beg you will be persuaded, that no one would be more zealous than myself to establish effectual barriers against the horrors of spiritual tyranny, and every species of religious persecution.”
~Founding Father George Washington, letter to the United Baptist Chamber of Virginia, May 1789

2. “Of all the animosities which have existed among mankind, those which are caused by a difference of sentiments in religion appear to be the most inveterate and distressing, and ought to be deprecated. I was in hopes that the enlightened and liberal policy, which has marked the present age, would at least have reconciled Christians of every denomination so far that we should never again see the religious disputes carried to such a pitch as to endanger the peace of society.”
~Founding Father George Washington, letter to Edward Newenham, October 20, 1792
3. “We have abundant reason to rejoice that in this Land the light of truth and reason has triumphed over the power of bigotry and superstition… In this enlightened Age and in this Land of equal liberty it is our boast, that a man’s religious tenets will not forfeit the protection of the Laws, nor deprive him of the right of attaining and holding the highest Offices that are known in the United States.”
~Founding Father George Washington, letter to the members of the New Church in Baltimore, January 27, 1793

4. “The United States of America have exhibited, perhaps, the first example of governments erected on the simple principles of nature; and if men are now sufficiently enlightened to disabuse themselves of artifice, imposture, hypocrisy, and superstition, they will consider this event as an era in their history. Although the detail of the formation of the American governments is at present little known or regarded either in Europe or in America, it may hereafter become an object of curiosity. It will never be pretended that any persons employed in that service had interviews with the gods, or were in any degree under the influence of Heaven, more than those at work upon ships or houses, or laboring in merchandise or agriculture; it will forever be acknowledged that these governments were contrived merely by the use of reason and the senses.”
~John Adams, “A Defence of the Constitutions of Government of the United States of America” 1787-1788

5. “The Government of the United States of America is not in any sense founded on the Christian religion.”
~1797 Treaty of Tripoli signed by Founding Father John Adams

6. “Thirteen governments [of the original states] thus founded on the natural authority of the people alone, without a pretence of miracle or mystery, and which are destined to spread over the northern part of that whole quarter of the globe, are a great point gained in favor of the rights of mankind.”
~Founding Father John Adams, “A Defence of the Constitutions of Government of the United States of America” (1787-88)

7. “We should begin by setting conscience free. When all men of all religions shall enjoy equal liberty, property, and an equal chance for honors and power we may expect that improvements will be made in the human character and the state of society.”
~Founding FatherJohn Adams, letter to Dr. Price, April 8, 1785

8. “I contemplate with sovereign reverence that act of the whole American people which declared that their legislature should make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibit the free exercise thereof, thus building a wall of separation between church and state.”
~Founding Father Thomas Jefferson, letter to the Baptists of Danbury, Connecticut, 1802

9. “In every country and in every age, the priest has been hostile to liberty. He is always in alliance with the despot, abetting his abuses in return for protection to his own. It is error alone that needs the support of government. Truth can stand by itself.”
~Founding Father Thomas Jefferson, in a letter to Horatio Spofford, 1814

10. “Question with boldness even the existence of a God; because, if there be one, he must more approve of the homage of reason, then that of blindfolded fear.”
~Founding Father Thomas Jefferson, letter to Peter Carr, August 10, 1787

11. “I am for freedom of religion and against all maneuvers to bring about a legal ascendancy of one sect over another.”
~Founding Father Thomas Jefferson, letter to Elbridge Gerry, January 26, 1799

12. “History, I believe, furnishes no example of a priest-ridden people maintaining a free civil government. This marks the lowest grade of ignorance of which their civil as well as religious leaders will always avail themselves for their own purposes.”
~Founding Father Thomas Jefferson: in letter to Alexander von Humboldt, December 6, 1813

13. “Because religious belief, or non-belief, is such an important part of every person’s life, freedom of religion affects every individual.

State churches that use government power to support themselves and force their views on persons of other faiths undermine all our civil rights. Moreover, state support of the church tends to make the clergy unresponsive to the people and leads to corruption within religion. Erecting the “wall of separation between church and state,” therefore, is absolutely essential in a free society. We have solved … the great and interesting question whether freedom of religion is compatible with order in government and obedience to the laws. And we have experienced the quiet as well as the comfort which results from leaving every one to profess freely and openly those principles of religion which are the inductions of his own reason and the serious convictions of his own inquiries.”
~Founding Father Thomas Jefferson: in a speech to the Virginia Baptists, 1808

14. “Christianity neither is, nor ever was a part of the common law.”
~Founding Father Thomas Jefferson, letter to Dr. Thomas Cooper, February 10, 1814,

15. “The civil government functions with complete success by the total separation of the Church from the State.”
~Founding Father James Madison, 1819, Writings, 8:432, quoted from Gene Garman, “Essays In Addition to America’s Real Religion”

16. “And I have no doubt that every new example will succeed, as every past one has done, in shewing that religion & Govt will both exist in greater purity, the less they are mixed together.”
~Founding Father James Madison, letter to Edward Livingston, July 10, 1822

17. “Every new and successful example of a perfect separation between ecclesiastical and civil matters is of importance.”
~Founding Father James Madison, letter, 1822

18. “Strongly guarded as is the separation between Religion and Government in the Constitution of the United States, the danger of encroachment by Ecclesiastical Bodies, may be illustrated by precedents already furnished in their short history.”
~Founding Father James Madison; Monopolies, Perpetuities, Corporations, Ecclesiastical
Endowments

19. “It is only when the people become ignorant and corrupt, when they degenerate into a populace, that they are incapable of exercising the sovereignty. Usurpation is then an easy attainment, and an usurper soon found. The people themselves become the willing instruments of their own debasement and ruin. Let us, then, look to the great cause, and endeavor to preserve it in full force. Let us by all wise and constitutional measures promote intelligence among the people as the best means of preserving our liberties.”
~Founding Father James Monroe, First Inaugural Address, March 4, 1817

20. “When a religion is good, I conceive it will support itself; and when it does not support itself, and God does not take care to support it so that its professors are obligated to call for help of the civil power, it’s a sign, I apprehend, of its being a bad one.”
~Founding Father Benjamin Franklin, letter to Richard Price, October 9, 1780

21. “Manufacturers, who listening to the powerful invitations of a better price for their fabrics, or their labor, of greater cheapness of provisions and raw materials, of an exemption from the chief part of the taxes burdens and restraints, which they endure in the old world, of greater personal independence and consequence, under the operation of a more equal government, and of what is far more precious than mere religious toleration–a perfect equality of religious privileges; would probably flock from Europe to the United States to pursue their own trades or professions, if they were once made sensible of the advantages they would enjoy, and were inspired with an assurance of encouragement and employment, will, with difficulty, be induced to transplant themselves, with a view to becoming cultivators of the land.”
~Founding Father Alexander Hamilton: Report on the Subject of Manufacturers December 5,
1791

22. “In regard to religion, mutual toleration in the different professions thereof is what all good and candid minds in all ages have ever practiced, and both by precept and example inculcated on mankind.”
~Samuel Adams, The Rights of the Colonists (1771)

23. “That religion, or the duty which we owe to our Creator, and the manner of discharging it, can be directed only by reason and conviction, not by force or violence; and therefore all men are equally entitled to the free exercise of religion, according to the dictates of conscience; and that it is the mutual duty of all to practice Christian forebearance, love, and charity towards each other.”
~Founding Father George Mason, Virginia Bill of Rights, 1776

24. “It is contrary to the principles of reason and justice that any should be compelled to contribute to the maintenance of a church with which their consciences will not permit them to join, and from which they can derive no benefit; for remedy whereof, and that equal liberty as well religious as civil, may be universally extended to all the good people of this commonwealth.”
~Founding Father George Mason, Virginia Declaration of Rights, 1776

25. “A man of abilities and character, of any sect whatever, may be admitted to any office or public trust under the United States. I am a friend to a variety of sects, because they keep one another in order. How many different sects are we composed of throughout the United States? How many different sects will be in congress? We cannot enumerate the sects that may be in congress. And there are so many now in the United States that they will prevent the establishment of any one sect in prejudice to the rest, and will forever oppose all attempts to infringe religious liberty. If such an attempt be made, will not the alarm be sounded throughout America? If congress be as wicked as we are foretold they will, they would not run the risk of exciting the resentment of all, or most of the religious sects in America.”
~Founding Father Edmund Randolph, address to the Virginia Ratifying Convention, June
10, 1788

26. “I never liked the Hierarchy of the Church — an equality in the teacher of Religion, and a dependence on the people, are republican sentiments — but if the Clergy combine, they will have their influence on Government”
~Founding Father Rufus King, Rufus King: American Federalist, pp. 56-57

27. A general toleration of Religion appears to me the best means of peopling our country… The free exercise of religion hath stocked the Northern part of the continent with inhabitants; and altho’ Europe hath in great measure adopted a more moderate policy, yet the profession of Protestantism is extremely inconvenient in many places there. A Calvinist, a Lutheran, or Quaker, who hath felt these inconveniences in Europe, sails not to Virginia, where they are felt perhaps in a (greater degree).”
~Patrick Henry, observing that immigrants flock to places where there is no established religion, Religious Tolerance, 1766

28. “No religious doctrine shall be established by law.”
~Founding Father Elbridge Gerry, Annals of Congress 1:729-731

29. “Knowledge and liberty are so prevalent in this country, that I do not believe that the United States would ever be disposed to establish one religious sect, and lay all others under legal disabilities. But as we know not what may take place hereafter, and any such test would be exceedingly injurious to the rights of free citizens, I cannot think it altogether superfluous to have added a clause, which secures us from the possibility of such oppression.”
~Founding Father Oliver Wolcott, Connecticut Ratifying Convention, 9 January 1788

30. “Some very worthy persons, who have not had great advantages for information, have objected against that clause in the constitution which provides, that no religious test shall ever be required as a qualification to any office or public trust under the United States. They have been afraid that this clause is unfavorable to religion. But my countrymen, the sole purpose and effect of it is to exclude persecution, and to secure to you the important right of religious
liberty. We are almost the only people in the world, who have a full enjoyment of this important right of human nature. In our country every man has a right to worship God in that way which is most agreeable to his conscience. If he be a good and peaceable person he is liable to no penalties or incapacities on account of his religious sentiments; or in other words, he is not subject to persecution. But in other parts of the world, it has been, and still is, far different. Systems of religious error have been adopted, in times of ignorance. It has been the interest of tyrannical kings, popes, and prelates, to maintain these errors. When the clouds of ignorance began to vanish, and the people grew more enlightened, there was no other way to keep them in error, but to prohibit their altering their religious opinions by severe persecuting laws. In this way persecution became general throughout Europe.”
~Founding Father Oliver Ellsworth, Philip B Kurland and Ralph Lerner (eds.), The Founder’s Constitution, University of Chicago Press, 1987, Vol. 4, p.
638

31. “Persecution is not an original feature in any religion; but it is always the strongly marked feature of all religions established by law. Take away the law-establishment, and every religion re-assumes its original benignity.”
~Thomas Paine, The Rights of Man, 1791

32. “God has appointed two kinds of government in the world, which are distinct in their nature, and ought never to be confounded together; one of which is called civil, the other ecclesiastical government.”
~Founding Father Isaac Backus, An Appeal to the Public for Religious Liberty, 1773

33. “Congress has no power to make any religious establishments.”
~Founding Father Roger Sherman, Congress, August 19, 1789

34. “The American states have gone far in assisting the progress of truth; but they have stopped short of perfection. They ought to have given every honest citizen an equal right to enjoy his religion and an equal title to all civil emoluments, without obliging him to tell his religion. Every interference of the civil power in regulating opinion, is an impious attempt to take the business of the Deity out of his own hands; and every preference given to any religious denomination, is so far slavery and bigotry.”
~Founding Father Noah Webster, calling for no religious tests to serve in public office, Sketches of American Policy, 1785

35. “The legislature of the United States shall pass no law on the subject of religion.”
~Founding Father Charles Pinckney, Constitutional Convention, 1787

And really you are nothing but phonies anyway. I'm no fan of religion but I'm sure the bible preaches about helping man loving thy neighbor but all the right wing conservatives want to do is literally kill them. They don't care

http://www.addictinginfo.org/2013/07/04/35-founding-father-quotes-conservative-christians-will-hate/

Facts don't lie

Here are a few facts about America Republicants hate

Happy

Hope everyone has a happy safe Fourth of July. Remember why this is our most important holiday.

Just wondering

So with the Supreme Court saying your religious beliefs trump everything else does that mean I can feed people to lions cause that's what my religious beliefs are?? Or I can shoot up a bunch of people cause my religious beliefs say so (to those monitoring this site this is hypothetical. I hate guns)

I mean that is exactly what the Supreme Court said yesterday

No More People

We the people..Remember that?? Apparently the Supreme Court doesn't. Unless you are a business. Big business. Every time they win with this disgusting court.

Citizens?? Not so much.

They gut the constitution and it's time THE SUPREME COURT GETS IMPEACHED

About Time

About time people stand up to the people who lied to get us to invade Iraq.

http://www.rawstory.com/rs/2014/06/29/nation-editor-stuns-architect-of-catastrophe-bill-kristol-join-iraqi-army-if-you-want-war/

KUDOS

This is responsible

http://www.rawstory.com/rs/2014/06/29/firearms-dealer-shoots-woman-while-teaching-concealed-carry-safety-at-pa-gun-show/

This is a "responsible" gun owner

Hypocrisy

So the continued hypocrisy on the right considering voting right and the Republicans lack of caring by passing voter laws THAT PROHIBIT PEOPLE FROM VOTING I present this

http://www.rawstory.com/rs/2014/06/24/wisconsin-republican-donor-busted-for-voting-5-times-in-gov-scott-walkers-recall-election/

REPUBLICANS AND FRAUD! What a shock

All

http://www.rawstory.com/rs/2014/06/23/georgia-gop-candidate-jody-hice-muslims-not-protected-by-the-first-amendment/

This Jody Hice, candidate (GOP OF COURSE) in Georgia doesn't think Muslims are protected by the first amendment, which last I checked WAS FREEDOM OF RELIGION!

Freedom of religion applies TO ALL RELIGION NO MATTER WHAT YOU THINK OF THEM.

FUCK YOU

Arrest Him

http://crooksandliars.com/2014/06/bobby-jindahl-promotes-hostile-takeover

It's very simple, Bachman, Palin, Jindahl, Rush, so many others have openly called for a campaign of violence against the government. It's called treason. They should all be arrested immediately

Let Me See if I understand this

The GOP, which had no problems with funding a war we will pay forever, the GOP who doesn't care if soldiers die based on lies by the President, Vice President, Sec. of State, Sec. of Defense, doesn't care if the soldiers rot after they return.

Stay Classy

http://www.dailykos.com/story/2014/06/22/1307971/-GOP-Sen-Ron-Johnson-It-costs-too-much-to-fund-the-VA?showAll=yes

The media is what??

If you have any doubt the media is purely right wing I bring you what's happening now in Iraq. Instead of bringing on people who, were and are against the war and any more troops in Iraq we get nothing but Cheney, McCain, Rumsfeld, and anyone and everyone who gave us the lies and deceit in the original occupation 10 years ago.

The media IS IN NO WAY LEFT WING

Please for the love of god SHUT UP

I think John McCain needs a history lesson

The Bush Administration LIED UNDER OATH to get us into Iraq. He said "there were weapons of mass destruction" we had no business to be there to begin with. That is the facts. We were told we would be greeted as liberators, we were told the oil in Iraq would pay for the war. We were completely lied to.

Soldiers lives were lost based on lies and ego.

That being said with the current unrest in Iraq John McCain SHUT THE FUCK UP ASSHOLE

http://www.dailykos.com/story/2014/06/13/1306691/-There-s-no-other-way-to-put-this-Sen-McCain-shut-up

How Many More

http://www.foxnews.com/us/2014/06/10/police-respond-to-report-shooting-at-oregon-high-school/

How many more have to die??

Two things

First the usual how many more have to die before we can enforce the "WELL REGULATED MILITIA" which the constitution says after the latest shootout in Las Vegas.

But I also wonder how many more of these shooting until people like Sean Hannity and druggie Limbaugh need to be held as accessories to crimes?

I ask because if you recall a few weeks ago where they made a hero out of Cliven Bundy, who was basically a nutjob who refused to pay millions of dollars of fees HE LEGALLY OWED THE GOVERNMENT for his cattle grazing on Government land, the right made a hero out of him even though he is clearly a criminal.

So what happened Sunday in Vegas is the two shooters spend time on Bundy's ranch just outside of Vegas, heard nothing about hatred of the Government, and shot two police officers who were just there having lunch and a person who was doing their business at a Wall Mart.

Congrats Hannity, Rush, blood is on your hands.

No Soul or compassion

I am not a religious person. I feel more harm is done in the name of god then anything else. And I also feel while people praise god for everything that is good in their lives, why don't they blame god for everything that is bad?? Shouldn't it go both ways??

That being said these so called right wing religious assholes who ALWAYS pull out the nazi card absolutely disgust me. The latest Tony Perkins

http://www.rawstory.com/rs/2014/06/06/tony-perkins-christians-forced-to-bake-cakes-for-gays-like-forcing-jews-into-nazi-ovens/

He actually compares Christians having to bake cakes for homosexuals to Jewish people being forced into nazi ovens.

Disgusting.

They can't win  an argument logically so the right ALWAYS pulls out the nazi card.

What happened

So the right is attacking a POW who was released in Afghanistan. Disgusting. Would the right attack when a trade was arranged in the release of John McCain in Vietnam? IT WAS THE EXACT SAME THING!

You are disgusting trolls.

No it wasn't

http://crooksandliars.com/2014/05/iowa-republican-senate-candidate-calls

So a candidate in Iowa called last weeks mass shooting "an accident".

No it wasn't. It was a thought out plan by someone who has mental issues that was still easily able to purchase guns cause of terrorist organizations like the NRA who don't want rules AND ENCOURAGE THIS BEHAVIOR

Simple

It's very simple. If you are pro life you cannot be pro gun. Guns do NOTHING BUT TAKE LIVES! If you claim to be pro life and are pro gun you are nothing but a liar.

Has to Happen

I know it won't but this has to happen:

The NRA needs to be declared a terrorist organization. The reason being is they do nothing but promote death and destruction of Americans.

When he's right he's right

I'm probably the last person to give Bill O'Reilly credit but he deserves it this once

http://crooksandliars.com/cltv/2014/05/oreilly-and-rove-argue-over

He wouldn't let Rove place the full blame of the VA situation on Obama as Rove was trying to do. O'Reilly RIGHTFULLY pointed out this problem clearly existed under Bush.

So kudos to Bill O'Reilly

You First

http://www.rawstory.com/rs/2014/05/18/dick-cheney-wants-hillary-clinton-held-accountable-for-benghazi-terror-attacks/

So Cheney thinks Hillary Clinton needs to be held accountable for the banghazi attacks.

You first Mr. Cheney

You and Bush were told a terrorist attack was coming AND CHOSE TO IGNORE IT

2016

So while everyone is speculating about 2016 I've tried to stay out of it since well it's only speculation at this point. I'd  like to talk about Jeb Bush who is probably going to run.

All Democrats will do if he does (and probably Republicans in the primary) will say is he's like his brother whose pollicies ruined this country and sent us to a great depression. That's a bad idea for the simple reason that all Bush would say is he isn't his brother. Either way let the catfights begin as I get the popcorn.

Congrats

Congrats to the United States Supreme Court on further eroding the Constitution in it's latest ruling IN FAVOR OF CHRISTIAN PRAYER. Disgusting. Absolutely disgusting.

If Only

If only Republicans were as passionate when the report came out how Bush was told Bin Laden determined to attack the United States a month before the 9/11 terrorist attacks and how Rice lied under oath when she said the smoking gun is going to be a mushroom cloud as they are with Benghazzi.

Nope a Republican

http://crooksandliars.com/2014/04/nro-embarasses-itself-donald-sterling-not

Of course you know this was going to happen and of course they are as always wrong! The Right wing immediately went on the attack, not of Donald Sterling, but on Democrats by saying he was a Democrat. Now to me racism is racism I don't care who says it and what their political views are it's disgusting. Anyone who says otherwise is just as disgusting. But even worse given the hundreds of despicable comments Republicans have made about race especially after President Obama was elected President they should NEVER talk about it.

That being said since 1998 Sterling is a registered Republican.

Politics aside of that what can be done to Sterling. He has freedom of speech even to hate or not.

In California wiretapping is illegal so if this goes goes to court, he will win.

THE NBA really doesn't have much, yeah they suspend him and fine him but in the end they really can't force him to sell the team.

And if you think he is the only owner with those feeling you are wrong.

As for fans, yeah you might want to boycott but that doesn't hurt Sterling, it hurts the team, It hurts Paul, it hurts Griffin it hurts Doc Rivers it hurts the people who are working their asses off and having the teams most successful season. Sterling will still laugh all the way to the bank

A Good Idea

http://crooksandliars.com/2014/04/california-considers-taxation-excessive

I like the idea of taxing CEO of corporations based on what their salary is. It's a good idea. It will never happen because of rulings like Citizens United where they will just spend unlimited amounts to get a bill blocked or if it does go through the companies will move out of state.

Doubling Down

So Nevada Rancher says he doesn't have freedom of speech and it's Dr. Martin Luther Kings fault

http://thinkprogress.org/media/2014/04/25/3430830/cliven-bundy-mlk/

Sorry you do. Otherwise respectable outlets like CNN and Disrespectable outlets like Fox News wouldn't give you platforms for you to say what you want. What you and a lot of the right don't get is YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR YOUR WORDS AND YOU WILL BE CALLED OUT ON THEM. If you don't like FULL FREEDOM OF SPEECH you should move out of the United States!

The Company You Keep

You are a product of the company you keep. The Nevada Rancher who has become a hero for the right because he hates the Federal Government and refuses to pay fees that he owes stepped into it by making  racist comments

http://thinkprogress.org/justice/2014/04/24/3430265/bundy-racist-comments/

So add him to the guy from Duck Dynasty, Ted Nuggent all of them. If that who the right considers the best and brightest well it says something.

No Pat. Absolutely Not

So Pat Robertson wants an end to the separation of church and state "nonsense"

http://www.rawstory.com/rs/2014/04/24/pat-robertson-stop-the-church-state-separation-nonsense-before-atheists-take-over-everything/

Allow me to speak for every sane person in America in a HELL NO

There is a reason our founding fathers put that in.

What Free Market

One of the constant cries from Republicants is the markets should decide for themselves on products.

Ladies and gentlemen I present the latest hypocrisy from the GOP:

http://thinkprogress.org/climate/2014/04/16/3427392/oklahoma-fee-solar-wind/

Oklahoma, in an attempt to get people to NOT decide what they want to do to lower electric bills, just passed and signed a law charging a tax to those who use solar energy for their homes and businesses.

So much for the free market.

A Good Choice

Kudos to the Supreme Court for letting the states decide if they want affirmative action. I thought they should overturn it completely cause colleges and employers need to hire or bring in the best people regardless of race.

The obvious hypocrites

I keep hearing from Republicants and their pundits how people keep mooching off the Government. I'd like to bring to your attention the Nevada Rancher who is in a standoff with the government. For the record let me state the facts of this case:

His heard is grazing on FEDERAL LAND

He REFUSES TO PAY THE FINE

Armed Militia are illegally helping him by sending people who illegally bring guns across state lines.

So in reality HE IS MOOCHING OFF THE GOVERNMENT

Oh wait he is white so that's why the right loves him

Just Go

So Mike Huckabee thinks North Korea has more freedom then the United States. I suggest if he really feels that way go there. Him and everyone. You don't like it here leave. You are not wanted or needed.

And by the way anyone who uses the Nazi argument like he did automatically loses the argument.

http://thinkprogress.org/world/2014/04/14/3426240/huckabee-north-korea/

Really

So I read a  letter in the L.A. Times where the writer said how the person who killed people in Ft. Hood last week "deserved better".

He made a choice. The military is voluntary. He made a choice to shoot people. He made a choice to kill people. He had easy access to guns and thought that was the right thing to do.

The only better he deserved was to be hung.

One More Thing

I find it odd how Congress is willing to send billions of dollars to foreign countries like Ukraine BUT they refuse to spend funds here. They really hate America.

Phony Argument

One of the phony arguments Republicants make is about state rights. Like they really care about that. Like Robert made when I made how Republicants are against things well LIKE PEOPLE VOTING! My question to Robert what about an individuals right?? DO they not matter?? The right to vote is in something Republicants heard of the constitution. But the only thing that matters to them in the constitution is the 2nd amendment. They don't give a shit fuck or damn about anything else.

More gutting

So the Supreme Court rules YET AGAIN against democracy and in favor of money laundering and outright bribery as they rule no limits on political contributions.

This court is disgusting

Religious Freedom

Congress shall make no law recognizing religion. That's what the amendment says. Now I say this because of the case of Hobby Lobby bringing to the Supreme Court how the Healthcare Law violates their religious freedom.

Bullshit

In NO WAY does the law say you can't worship or do whatever the hell you want in terms of religion. And I wonder (I think the Supreme Court will rule in favor of Hobby Lobby by the way) does that mean I can shoot people cause I think they are threatening my religious freedom??

Careful What You Wish For

Many years ago then President Bill Clinton signed a law the Republicans passed that de-regulated the cable industry. What the Republicans always claim is that it creates options and gives customers more choices.

That, as always, is bullshit! You see what it does is it creates mergers, when companies merge they create FEWER options. When fewer options are available companies can outrageously raise prices and make FEWER people afford things.

I also bring that to the Dodgers, the Dodgers had the choice to go with a few options, they chose Time Warner Cable (thank you since I have it). For those millions in the Los Angeles area that do not have it, they are screwed.

Welcome to de-regualtion.

Who is for Freedom

I find it amusing how the right claims they are about Freedom but if you look at what they actually do they show they are against it... Want proof??

Who is against the Freedom of people choosing to marry the person they love no matter what that person's sex is??

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2014/02/13/ted-cruz-gay-marriage-bill_n_4780699.html

http://rhrealitycheck.org/article/2013/07/03/shame-shame-north-carolina-sharia-law-bill-with-abortion-restrictions-passes-state-senate/

So Republicans are the ones against Freedom ladies and gentlemen

way to much

This is ONLY a New Jersey issue. Of course Christie new about the bridge closing. Shit like that happens more too many times. Only reason it's going national is because if Christie runs for President as a not insane Republican he would more then likely win.

Really

There are so many ego's in the Republican party they had to have 4 responses to the State of the Union yesterday??

http://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/multiple-gop-responses-to-state-of-the-union-are-they-a-sign-of-party-division/2014/01/28/0d1c68c0-883b-11e3-916e-e01534b1e132_story.html

Imagine the outrage if it was the other way.

What should be done

This is something long overdue. President Obama needs to label groups like the NRA a TERRORIST ORGANIZATION. As we have ANOTHER MASS SHOOTING, this time in a mall near Baltimore the NRA does nothing but promote VIOLENCE against the citizens of the United States.

This is what needs to be done

Talking Steriods

I'm not a fan of Alex Rodriguez. I truly THINK he did as accused of steroids. It's my opinion and only that. However I think that Major League Baseball IS WRONG in this case. According the the collective bargaining agreement it clearly states that the only way a player could be suspended is if he tested positive. And the rules of the suspension are shown as the 1st time 25 games, 2nd time 50 games 3rd time you are out of the game.

That being said since AROD never tested positive, MLB has no right to suspend him.

Really

So the met understand.... Republicans are willing to pay for wars, tax cuts for the wealthy without offset spending but something like unemployment benefits they are not?

Hypocrites

Double Standard

I'd like to talk about the double standards from the right wing of this country. First I'd like to give a statement that drug addict Limbaugh said:

LIMBAUGH: So the states, when you've got people like Holder and Obama in office, it doesn't matter what governors do, it doesn't matter what the people of the state want. What Holder and Obama want is what's going to happen.  Holder does not have this kind of power or authority, but he does if nobody is going to stop him or challenge him.

[...]

So the law doesn't mean anything. Existing law doesn't mean anything if changes to it are being contemplated, and so the people of Utah -- same-sex marriage, yes, no, are now victims, and the federal government is just going to ride in and wave the powerful magic wand and say, "This is the way it's gonna be."  So who needs governors?  You have the attorney general engaging in executive actions, executive orders, just as if Obama were to do it.  Stalinists, folks.

So Limbaugh says to give Utah what they want to do.

Now here is Eric Cantor doing the exact opposite of what Limbaugh just did by attacking New York Mayor De Blasio over eduction: 

http://www.washingtonpost.com/local/education/cantor-pushes-charters-and-vouchers-as-part-of-school-choice/2014/01/08/0aa7560c-7889-11e3-af7f-13bf0e9965f6_story.html

As usual the GOP wants it both ways

Hypocirtes

Showing how ignorant the right is as always they somehow never seem to talk about Climate Change when it's hot, like it's been here in California, but they only talk about it when we have record cold which IS A RESULT OF CLIMATE CHANGE IDIOTS

Times need to change

I would like to talk about free speech and how it doesn't always work out. Especially if you are speaking in favor of pro-gay rights. The latest is a former NFL player Chris Kluwe. He was a punter for Minnesota until he was released.

http://americablog.com/2014/01/vikings-deny-kluwe-fired-pro-gay.html

He feels he was released because he is outspoken in his pro-gay rights beliefs. And he may have standing. Last year, Brendon Ayanbadejo of the Super Bowl Champion Baltimore Ravens, was unable to sign with a team. He is also outspoken in favor of gay rights.

In the NBA no one signed Jason Collins after he came out as being gay.

There is free speech here last I checked.

My wish

My wish in 2014 is to have more civil dialogue. To say something without being dragged to the lowest common denominator. AKA without being called a "marxist, communist," and that I "hate America".

Democrats want civil discussions. Republicans don't cause if there was an honest discussion and dialogue they would lose every argument.

To prove a point

http://mediamatters.org/video/2013/12/18/hannity-calls-duck-dynasty-stars-anti-gay-comme/197345

To prove yet another point how I am not religious.. How Sean Hannity and most on Fox are defending the hateful racist comment from the main character of Duck Dynasty Hannity said he represents "Christian Values"

So being a racist, homophobic person is being Christian in their eyes

Disgusting

What I wish

I wish I would be Commissioner of all sports. I would do the following:

Institute a MINIMUM salary cap. Teams like the Florida Marlins, Houston Astros should not be rewarded with money by failing to put a competitive team on the field. The fans should NOT be punished by their owner desire for mediocrity. There needs to be competition.

Eliminate the salary cap. Except for rookies


Eliminate any tax exempt status by all owners. Sorry you do business in this country you pay taxes.

Real War

It's funny how the right always claims on holiday's how there is a war on Christmas or a war on Easter you want a real war.. Let's take a look at right wing wars. I mean real war

War on Workers... They want to gut Unions and workers right

War on the poor... The fact they cut food stamps and unemployment shows they hate the poor

War on Voting Rights...Fact how Republicans are doing everything possible to make it harder for people to vote in states that can easily switch from Republican to Democrat.

Those are the real wars.

That is something we can change

Choices

http://www.dailykos.com/story/2013/12/28/1265706/-A-E-reinstates-Duck-Dynasty-star-after-outcry-in-support-of-bigotry#


So A&E is chosing to re-instate Duck Dynasty after an outcry from racists and bigots demanding the star be allowed back.

Fine that is their choice.

I choose not to watch that network while that show is on. I chose not to go to their sponsors who advertise on that show.

That is a choice I make

Why I hate them

Garbage like this is why I'm not religious.

http://www.rawstory.com/rs/2013/12/26/pastor-john-hagee-to-atheists-gladly-accept-my-christmas-tidings-or-leave-the-country/

You see I need to give you a history lesson... One of the main reasons why this country was founded was to escape religion.

And yet another thing we have freedom of speech in this country. Not sure if the right wing realizes that. That does mean that if people want to say Happy Holidays, that is their RIGHT! If people want to say Merry Christmas, THAT IS THEIR RIGHT!

If people can't accept that, GO ELSEWHERE

There is no war on Christmas, you are not allowing freedom of speech if you think there is.

How things work

I'd like to talk about a free market and how it is supposed to work. Not how the right wing thinks it works but how it is supposed to work

That idiot from Duck Dynasty made in appropriate comments (in my opinion). He has every right to say or feel how he does. No one questions that. He think how he does and as much as I feel it is wrong he has a right to his opinion.

His employer has a right to terminate or suspend him. Just like if I said something inaporpriate at my job or any person would at their job. They have to think of their bottom line just like everyone else does.

If only "people" like Sarah Palin and Bobby Jindal and everyone on Fox would understand how it is supposed to work

Funny

How the right uses Christianity and the bible to allow being homophobic racists. Funny from what I understand of the bible it is supposed to teach inclusiveness and love of all people. Togetherness not intolerance. It is supposed to teach loving each other.

But what do I know

Uh No

http://mediamatters.org/video/2013/12/16/limbaugh-if-they-could-the-left-would-totally-e/197287

As much as I try not to talk about the drug addict Rush Limbaugh much cause he is SO fucking stupid I had to comment on this. THERE IS NO ONE ON THE LEFT WHO WANTS TO ELIMINATE CHRISTMAS. THIS FUCKING WAR ON CHRISTMAS IS NOTHING BUT A RIGHT WING PLOT IN THEIR LITTLE FEEBLE MINDS!

 That is all

A great man

The world lost a great man. A leader. A visionary. Nelson Mandela was a hero. Anyone who thinks otherwise is naive.

Oh yeah that is the Republican Party

http://thinkprogress.org/home/2013/12/06/3029871/wing-timeline-mandela/

Bullshit

The latest in the right wing attempts to attack President Obama is a complete and udder lie. It's bullshit. There is a story going around saying how President Obama is moving the embassy in the Vatican even Jeb Bush made comments on it saying how it's retaliation for Christian themed companies who are suing for the affordable care act. There is one problem with the story: THERE IS NO UNITED STATES EMBASSY IN THE VATICAN!

You desperate right wing IDIOTS will try anything

I'll never understand

I will never understand the Republicant just utter gung-ho attitude toward war. If war is necessary yes do it. But if peace is achievable then by all means it should be attempted. Again take a look at the deal with Iran. Peace should always be the first option. Not the last. But predictably the Republicants don't want peace and would rather attack first and ask questions later like Iraq.

Hypocrites

Shame Republicans want another scalp on the heathcare mess on the website.

Big shame is Democrats not calling for Republicans heads when say Bush and Chaney Lied and got troops killed for NO REASON AT ALL

Bye Bye

Thank you President Obama for NOT CAVING to the Republicants who took our country hostage over a LEGALLY PASSED LAW.

Nice victory of the cry baby Republicants.

Bye Bye

Here we go again

Oh yes an oldie but goody.. Republicants are yet again bringing up death panels regarding the legally passed affordable care act.

I will always bring up the death panels that told my father that they wouldn't put him on the kidney donar list because he was too old. This was before the law passed.

Fucking assholes

Stay Classy

Nothing like a little sexism from the GOP

http://occupyamerica.crooksandliars.com/diane-sweet/gop-convention-features-sexist-anti-hi#sthash.WQGokz6i.dpbs

Yet Again

Up until President Obama was fairly elected despite Republicans efforts to eliminate voting there was no issue with raising out dept ceiling. Whether there were Democrats or Republicans in office, it was one of the few things the was truly non partisan and got a pretty unanimous vote. It was raised 19 times previously.

But now, under the bully pulpit of John Bonehead (not a typo) he will allow our nation not to pay it's bills and default. Why?? Cause he and the party he represents would rather destroy the economy of the United States then well do anything to help our country.

http://thinkprogress.org/politics/2013/10/06/2738351/boehner-well-be-on-the-path-towards-default-if-obamas-doesnt-accept-gop-demands/

Imagine This

Imagine if the Democrats shut down the Government say.. Over the illegal Iraq War, or the Patriot Act, or over something simple like background checks for guns? Or overturning Citizens United?? Or The gutting of the voting rights act?? You know what that outrage would be??

Zero Hour

Here we are... Egomaniac Republicans are trying their best to destroy the economy and protest a LEGAL LAW that was written, voted on, and judged constitutional by the RIGHT WING SUPREME COURT! But it doesn't matter to Republicans. It doesn't matter how they disrespect the laws written.

They are disgusting

When

With the latest mass shooting today in Washington D.C. can we NOW have a serious conversation about gun rules??

Funny

Just funny how the same people who lied about us getting into Iraq, a country that was NO THREAT AT ALL are upset we might get into a war against Syria, who ACTUALLY HAS WEAPONS OF MASS DESTRUCTION

amusing

I always find it amusing how the right claims we are a Christian nation when if they actually studied history one of the reasons people escaped England was religion itself.

A while back Bill O'Idiot said that if you don't like the fact this is a Christian leave. I pointed out that if he doesn't like the fact that we are a nation of many religions as well as people who don't believe and that is our right. I also pointed out if he wants a Christian nation go to the Vatican.

Now False news is at it again

http://www.rawstory.com/rs/2013/09/06/fox-news-host-tired-of-atheists-demands-for-freedom-from-religion-they-dont-have-to-live-here/

If you really are upset about Atheists well leave our country. Go. We don't want you or anyone who believes we are a one religion country. Get the HELL OUT!

http://www.rawstory.com/rs/2013/09/01/conservative-blogger-republicans-are-losing-because-of-family-guy/

So a Conservative at a conference in Orlando say Republicans are losing cause of TV Shows like Family Guy.

I hate to be the bearer of bad news but Republicans are losing cause their message and views haven't changed. No other reason.

What to do

No matter what President Obama does in Syria (at this point looks like we'll be sending missiles their way) President Obama won't win. And the blame is squarely on Bush. You see with Bush's lies about Iraq it's apparent that he ruined our reputation in the world. No countries trust us cause of Bush's ego and desire to invade Iraq. And even our closest allies don't trust us now. Thanks you Bush you idiot.

The dream continues

The 50th anniversary of Dr. Martin Luther Kings I have a dream speech is coming. I would love to say things are changing and to a degree they are. But considering how things like the gutting of the voting rights act happened and the erosion of people rights to vote done by the GOP are happening we still have a long way to go. But these words need to still be said. Here is a copy of the text of the speech. May someday soon every man, women of every race, sexual preference, color be treated equally.

I am happy to join with you today in what will go down in history as the greatest demonstration for freedom in the history of our nation.
Five score years ago a great American in whose symbolic shadow we stand today signed the Emancipation Proclamation. This momentous decree came as a great beckoning light of hope to millions of Negro slaves who had been seared in the flames of withering injustice. It came as a joyous daybreak to end the long night of their captivity.
But one hundred years later the Negro is still not free. One hundred years later the life of the Negro is still sadly crippled by the manacles of segregation and the chains of discrimination.
One hundred years later the Negro lives on a lonely island of poverty in the midst of a vast ocean of material prosperity.
One hundred years later the Negro is still languishing in the comers of American society and finds himself in exile in his own land.
We all have come to this hallowed spot to remind America of the fierce urgency of now. Now is the time to rise from the dark and desolate valley of segregation to the sunlit path of racial justice. Now is the time to change racial injustice to the solid rock of brotherhood. Now is the time to make justice ring out for all of God's children.
There will be neither rest nor tranquility in America until the Negro is granted citizenship rights.
We must forever conduct our struggle on the high plane of dignity and discipline. We must not allow our creative protest to degenerate into physical violence. Again and again we must rise to the majestic heights of meeting physical force with soul force.
And the marvelous new militarism which has engulfed the Negro community must not lead us to a distrust of all white people, for many of our white brothers have evidenced by their presence here today that they have come to realize that their destiny is part of our destiny.
So even though we face the difficulties of today and tomorrow I still have a dream. It is a dream deeply rooted in the American dream.
I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: 'We hold these truths to be self-evident; that all men are created equal."
I have a dream that one day on the red hills of Georgia the sons of former slaves and the sons of former slave owners will be able to sit together at the table of brotherhood.
I have a dream that one day even the state of Mississippi, a state sweltering with the heat of injustice, sweltering with the heat of oppression, will be transformed into an oasis of freedom and justice.
I have a dream that little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character.
I have a dream today.
I have a dream that one day down in Alabama, with its vicious racists, with its Governor having his lips dripping with the words of interposition and nullification, one day right there in Alabama little black boys and black girls will be able to join hands with little white boys and white girls as sisters and brothers.
I have a dream today.
I have a dream that one day every valley shall be exalted, every hill and mountain shall be made low, the rough places plains, and the crooked places will be made straight, and before the Lord will be revealed, and all flesh shall see it together.
This is our hope. This is the faith that I go back to the mount with. With this faith we will be able to hew out of the mountain of despair a stone of hope. With this faith we will be able to transform the genuine discords of our nation into a beautiful symphony of brotherhood. With this faith we will be able to work together, pray together; to struggle together, to go to jail together, to stand up for freedom forever, )mowing that we will be free one day.
And I say to you today my friends, let freedom ring. From the prodigious hilltops of New Hampshire, let freedom ring. From the mighty mountains of New York, let freedom ring. From the mighty Alleghenies of Pennsylvania!
Let freedom ring from the snow capped Rockies of Colorado!
Let freedom ring from the curvaceous slopes of California!
But not only there; let freedom ring from the Stone Mountain of Georgia!
Let freedom ring from Lookout Mountain in Tennessee!
Let freedom ring from every hill and molehill in Mississippi. From every mountainside, let freedom ring.
And when this happens, when we allow freedom to ring, when we let it ring from every village and hamlet, from every state and every city, we will be able to speed up that day when all of God's children, black men and white men, Jews and Gentiles, Protestants and Catholics, will be able to join hands and sing in the words of the old Negro spiritual, "Free at last! Free at last! Thank God almighty, we're free at last!"

How stupid are you??

http://thinkprogress.org/politics/2013/08/21/2503281/louisiana-republicans-blame-president-obama-katrina-response/

The link says it all. People are stupid. I guess President Obama is also responsible for the JFK assassination, watergate, Iran Contra, hell he probably killed Lincoln.

get the facts straight. The lack of response WAS ON BUSH SINCE HE WAS IN CHARGE YOU IDIOTS

Who gets to vote

So with the gutting of the Voting Rights act by the Supreme Court I would like to remind people a few things. I consider the right to vote the most scared right. I haven't missed an election since I became of legal to vote in 1988.

Republicans don't want you to vote. We can take a look at recent history where Republicans didn't want the legal votes to count in Florida in 2000, or Ohio in 2004, or what they are doing today in Texas, Florida, Ohio, North Carolina and many other states the clear indication is they don't want every citizen who is eligible to vote to be able to do that.

The facts show.

you see Democrats want everyone who is to be allowed to vote and whatever the results are they are. Republicans can't win on issues or even have a honest discussion of them so they have to cheat. That's the only way they know how.


And by the way do follow up on my last post about Ted Cruz, sorry just because you renounce your Canadian citizenship doesn't mean you are a U.S. citizen.

Eliminate One

Eliminate one candidate for the Republicants in 2016. Sen. Ted Cruz was born in Canada which means he can't run.

http://www.rawstory.com/rs/2013/08/11/birtherism-bites-cruz-trump-says-hes-perhaps-not-eligible-to-run-for-president/

What a difference

So I'd like to give a difference between President Obama and Bush...

On Aug 6, 2001 Bush was given a Presidential briefing called Bin Laden determined to attack the United States. Bush chose to do absolutely nothing to protect Americans.

President Obama was told a threat is "imminent" and chose to protect Americans best he can.

Who is really serious about security??

Free Market

This is how a free market SHOULD work. Don't cry for Hannity or the drug addict. They have plenty of money and I'm sure will be picked up anywhere they want.

http://mediamatters.org/blog/2013/07/29/report-cumulus-plans-to-drop-rush-limbaugh-from/195101

Steroids

So with the lucky no real penalty Ryan Braun got for ped use I'd like to suggest this: If MLB, and all of sports really,  were really serious about cracking down on all ped's and their usage the following penalties:

A)  Players Contracts are immediately voided
B)  Players have to return all money already paid to them
C) When their suspensions are served, they have to make the MINOR league minimum for the reminder of their careers.

I say this because Braun just signed a contract extension worth well over $100 million dollars. This 65 game suspension will only cost him a little over $3 million. What is the real incentive to change??

Your thoughts

Predictable

Of course it didn't take long for the right wing nuts to blame the President for the Zimmerman trial because I guess in their little minds the President pulled the trigger and murdered Trayvon Martin.

Happy Independence day

Hope everyone has a great enjoyable SAFE 4th of July.

Our men and women who serve in the military sacrifice so much for our Freedom. Espn did an awesome video to honor them. I hope everyone watches this.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6dKWq0CzK-k

Disgusting

Just disgusting... Today's decision by the Supreme Court on gutting the voting rights act. In one act they are destroying EVERYONE'S RIGHT TO VOTE. Just disgusting

Hypnocrites

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/06/18/anti-abortion-bill_n_3460794.html

So how the right always claims they want the government out of people's lives I find it funny how they are talking about an anti abortion bill in Congress which means the government is intruding on the right to privacy.

As usual they want it both ways.

Really?? again

http://videocafe.crooksandliars.com/heather/dick-cheney-calls-edward-snowden-traitor-a

So Dick Cheney had the nerve to call Edward Snowden a traitor... Funny considering how HE committed treason by leaking the name of Valerie Plame, a covert CIA operator, to the press cause her husband wouldn't lie for the administration

Really

Like many people I'm quite upset finding out about the domestic spying program that started under Bush is continuing under President Obama. I think it's wrong and there is a saying those who are willing to give up freedom for security deserve neither.

MR PRESIDENT SHUT DOWN THIS PROGRAM

Going get tough

So I see Michelle Bachman went the way of Sarah Palin in the fact that when some controversy happens she is quitting congress. Either cause she was losing in the polls or she is subject to a Federal Investigation. Either way congress will now be a better place without her around.

Easy

With the current makeup of the Supreme Court I am pretty sure how they will rule but I see they are taking a case about allowing prayer in Public Government Meetings.

How they should rule is simple: If they believe in the constitution they should rule 9-0 against it. We have separation of church and state for a reason and that would CLEARLY establish a religion because we know it would only involve christianity.

using their arguments

So with the phony outrage from Republicants on Benghazzi and the IRS "scandel" I was just wondering where the Republicants were when Bush was told by Rice that Bin Laden was determined to attack the United States and Bush chose to do nothing and when the IRS took a churches tax exempt status UNDER BUSH for the church daring to speak against him??

As usual they want it both ways. Hypocrites

Stay Classy

Stay classy you drug addict

http://tv.msnbc.com/2013/05/08/unbelievable-limbaugh-complains-ohio-kidnap-victims-might-get-welfare/

So it's not important about what happened for 10 years to the Amanda Berry but it's important she might get welfare.

Asshole

Disgusting

It's disgusting how Democrats have to resign when they have affairs and actually face consequences for their actions yet nothing happens to Republicants like Mark Sanford who just got elected to Congress

Simple

So Texas is passing laws making it easier for guns to be in places where lots of people can get shot (schools, etc). In clear violation of Federal Law.

It's simple. Arrest them for breaking the law.

AMEN

I always say when republicants do something right they deserve credit. I present someone who actually wants to do something right:
http://thinkprogress.org/alyssa/2013/04/25/1923231/coburn-nfl-tax-exempt/

Sen. Coburn wants to end sports leagues tax-exempt status.

I say AMEN

Remember

So the last Pres. Bush has his library dedication today. Now someone please remember the nightmare that was his Presidency.

Such as

the worst recession since the great depression
the 9/11 attacks
Hurricaine Katrina (his appointing the least knowledgable people to important posts like FEMA)
The UNNECCESSARY LOSS OF LIVES IN THE ILLEGAL IRAQ WAR

He was among THE WORST PRESIDENTS IN HISTORY

Remember

Stay Classy

http://thinkprogress.org/health/2013/04/21/1899581/arkansas-republicans-shoot-lawmakers-for-expanding-medicaid/



So I wish someone would press charges for making threats. Only way the stupidity will stop.

Rough Week

I leave town for 5 days and all hell breaks loose. Where to begin

Congrats to the Boston P.D. for capturing one of the two terrorist suspects for the bombing of the marathon. You were strong. You got him.

Shame on the Senate for failing to protect it's citizens. I always find it funny for those who claim to be "pro life" supports guns which only take lives. That is their only purpose and you will in no way shape or form convince me otherwise and for those who might I just ask.. How many drive by stabbings or hanging have you heard of??

Thoughts and prayers to those effected by the tragedy in Texas. I find it funny though how hypocrite Rick Perry has the nerve to ask for Federal Money with all his claims on how bad the Federal Government is. Oh wait he is a Republican so he is a walking hypocrite like the rest of them.

Did they know

So I saw a report saying the FBI knew about the older brother in the terror attacks. If so and they chose to do nothing they are an accessory to the crime. It's that easy

Tension

While nobody seems to be breaking from the tension with North Korea and, well everyone, I seem to remember it started going downhill when the last President Bush named them in the "Axis of Evil" yet he chose to do nothing about it. Guess they didn't have enough oil.
