Then what does it mean and what is the point you are trying to make by posting it?

So, Americans are not obsessed with being entertained?

So, Americans do not vote for a guy because he seems like a cool dude (Bush) or has a nice slogan (Obama)?
Reminds me of Europe.

Oh, yeah, I thought for sure that you felt these were great minds based upon your posts- you sure fooled me.

Why include those irrelevant folks with the relevant ones- it weakens your argument. What the hell has Jeremy Wright or even Maxine Waters said publicly recently that has been widely reported? You can make the same tired "everyone on the left is an idiot commie baby killer" without bringing in Rosie for Christ's sake!

Oh, you haven't heard what Rev. Jeremiah Wright has been up to recently? He's actually had quite a lot of press regarding his racially charged "seminars" in Chi town recently. It was in the last two weeks, I guess you would consider that recent. Also Max Waters. So I guess my arguement is still strong! Here's your link;

No one is paying attention to Rev. Wright except for you.

We're not all Beck cultists you know. You can usually tell who they are though.

Members of his cult are lily white, wear stupid expressions and pants worn thin at the knees....

You wouldn't want to take them over in Europe would you? We'll be glad to ship them free of charge.

I was referring to one poster. You can read the whole passage in the Bible. It is not that hard to understand. But why do you need someone to explain it to you? Take the time and think for yourself or can't you do that because you are not used to think for yourself?
Do you really think one needs to become richer and richer? Add that one more car to your garage when other people are working three jobs just to feed their children? How can people like that enter heaven? These people have not found what it means to be truely rich. It has nothing to do with having money. And yes, Jesus wanted the rich to share their money with the poor. All of it. He was a humble man and money didn't mean anything to him.

Sorry. Jesus wasn't a leftie. Or a rightie. He was an anarchist.

Really? Give some examples.

Or is writing more than one sentence too much for you.

Once again, this thread is about Fox News, not MSNBC. You keep getting it wrong!
