Sorry, I mistyped. I should have said, political discourse. Anyway, we have all been told, ad nauseum, that political discourse such as this is harmful to the body politic.........by american liberals/leftists and the mainstream press as recently as the arizona shooting and for the last couple of years of the tea party protests. Now it would appear.......it isn't. Nice.

And how can we forget the trillions in debt we have yet to pay? What exactly did we get for that money? No, the left doesn't treat the armed forces as a "punchline". There's absolutely nothing funny about it.
Wow. Not much to say about this, except you've forgot the millions we've saved, liberated, fed and the countries we've helped and rebuilt.

Truly incredible.

Some people on here seem to think the protestors are a bunch of out of control criminals. The protests have been totally peaceful, read the paper perhaps, maybe you'll get a better sense of it.
That's because the media have not published all the wonderful signs, sentiments, comparison to Hitler, Stalin - a classic double standard well documented.

I'm here to serve my liberal/leftist brothers and sisters. May I assume you liked the hitler and nazi signs too.

What are you even talking about? I'm talking about all the talk about the protestors & their behavior. What do signs have anything to do w/it? I said the protests have been peaceful. I know you may be desperate to show otherwise but you'd be wrong.

Great job Katiana! Perhaps we can educate these uninformed and ignorant people!

Great response. Makes sense now. I was starting to wonder.

P.S. Love your caption thingy with the Bible verse.
