Granted, you guys find them repulsive to look at but to trash them? I don't get it.

I will patiently await the jumping up and down and screaming of the left media reporting any part of that, especially the geese doing anything untoward.
You learned a new word lately, didn't you? Everything is secular. it's secular. I'm secular, everywhere is secular...crack in the vinyl???


Hey maybe you can explain what was the sign from god represented by the unheard of event of geese flying in air.. ????

C'mon , your darling Beck said it was a sign from god ...but no one can tell me what the sign was???

Probably none. I don't think they were sent from God to create a greater lasting memory for those in attendance.

My comment was made from the standpoint of personal experience, and reading over what people have to say. I will admit that part of it was to poke a little honest fun at liberals, but the rest of it is an astute observation. While yes it happens on the Conservative side too at times, the overwhelming majority of the name calling and negativity is coming from the Left. "I don't like what this person has to say so I think I'll call them names and try to demean their character instead of discussing it like an adult."

We are not perfect, but that shouldn't stop us from trying to be. Right?

BS. You haven't been here very long OR you have Selective Post Reading Syndrome.

I find the rightists are quite nasty, hate/anger and jealousy being their only emotions and they are always on the surface..

And another thread succumbs to "they are worse than us" syndrome. We should just have all the threads start out that way to save time.

Just a word on the whole geese thing: A patient of mine told me the geese are flying south earlier this winter which means we'll have a colder than normal winter. Just thought I'd pass it on!

It's almost painful reading these posts. The incredible lack of what the ancients used to call "Common Sense" is staggering. Conservatives typically use the left side of their brain which controls logic. If you read through so many of these riveting, thought provoking posts, you will notice that liberals tend to be more reactionary and emotional, which is the right side of the brain. Relying on emotion so heavily would explain why there is so little reason and sense to what these people have to say. Now, I'll not say they shouldn't speak, because the 1st amendment guarantees them that right and I won't infringe on that. But for the love of God think about what you are saying before you feel compelled to flap your gums.

I fully expect some well-thought and witty retort like, "Oh yeah?! Maybe YOU'RE the one who needs to think first."

Well, liberals being liberals have shown here in this post that it doesn't matter what is meant or implied in the posts, only the words that are used; WHAT is said. C'mon all you Commie-Libs out there. Your turn
Actually, if a liberal said that, s/he would get their post deleted and an infraction of several days.

I'm not sure about colder but certainly earlier.

Nothing like a good picture to show the difference between the Beck supporters and the Obama supporters.

Just one of many. It's weird how people on the Left and in the media claim over and over again that is the "crazies" on the right that are hateful, racist, etc Yet, time after time, in most cases when liberals get together, its a much uglier picture than when people on the Right do.

I wont say we are perfect, and I wont say we dont have our share of lunatics. But my gosh, there is a huge difference between liberal supporters and others. The evidence is all over the place, and definitely at last Saturday's rally. Yet the liberals will never admit the obvious and facts. So sad.

Another good example
