Oh I can't wait until the GOP kick out the far right wingers, they are nothing but a burden to that party.

Correct. Like the Perot folks, solo (3rd party) they can't last, so like ticks, they attached themsleves to the GOP, who was foolish to accept them.

Those kind of names?

Dear liberals, leftists, social progressives, socialists, Marxists and Obama supporters:

It has become painfully obvious that things are just not working out between us, so we propose an equitable and friendly break up...

Our two groups can equitably divide up the country by landmass each taking a similar portion. That will be the difficult part, but I am sure our two sides can come to friendly agreement. After that, it should be relatively easy! Our respective
representatives can effortlessly divide other assets since both sides have such distinct and disparate tastes.

--We don't like redistributive taxes so you can keep them.
--You are welcome to the liberal judges and the ACLU.
--Since you hate guns and war, we'll take our firearms, the cops, the NRA and the military.
--We'll take the nasty, smelly oil industry and you can go with wind, solar and biodiesel.
--You can keep Oprah, Michael Moore and Rosie O'Donnell. You are, however, responsible for finding a bio-diesel vehicle big enough to move all three of them.
--We'll keep capitalism, greedy corporations, pharmaceutical companies, Wal-Mart and Wall Street
--You can have your beloved lifelong welfare dwellers, food stamps, homeboys, hippies, druggies and illegal aliens.
--We'll keep the hot Alaskan hockey moms, greedy CEO's and rednecks.
--We'll keep the Bibles and give you NBC and Hollywood .
--You can make nice with Iran and Palestine and we'll retain the right to invade and hammer places that threaten us.
--You can have the peaceniks and war protesters. When our allies or our way of life are under assault, we'll help provide them security.
--We'll keep our Judeo-Christian values.
--You are welcome to Islam, Scientology, Humanism, political correctness and Shirley McClain. You can also have the U.N. but we will no longer be paying the bill.
--We'll keep the SUV's, pickup trucks and over-sized luxury cars. You can take every Toyota Prius and Subaru station wagon you can find.
--You can give everyone healthcare if you can find any practicing doctors.
--We'll continue to try to find ways of reducing the costs of healthcare that don't shred the Constitution.
--We'll keep "The Battle Hymn of the Republic" and "The National Anthem."
--I'm sure you'll be happy to substitute "Imagine", "I'd Like to Teach the World to Sing", "Kum Ba Ya" or "We Are the World".
--We'll practice trickle down economics and you can continue to give trickle up poverty your best shot.
--Since it often so offends you, we'll keep our history, our name and our flag.
Would you agree to this?
In the spirit of friendly parting, I'll bet you answer which one of us will need whose help in 15 years.

P.S. Also, please take Ted Turner, Sean Penn, Martin Sheen, Barbara Streisand, & JaneFonda with you.

P.S.S. And you won't have to press 1 for English when you call our country.

P.S.S.S And when you get that drunken 3:00 am urge to call us up and beg us to take you back.....save yourselves the embarrassment, it aint happening.

Homosexuality is based on an activity and feelings; sex and/or attraction to the same sex. Skin color is just that, who you are, not what you do. You have bought into a lie; that homosexuality is akin to race.

Let's do a quick quiz and see if you have the intellectual honesty to answer it truthfully:

A room full of people all sitting quietly and all wearing a plain white t-shirt and jeans. In the room are black people, white people, Asian people and homosexuals. Out of those 4 groups, which can you identify by simply looking at them. This is an exercise in critical thinking.

WHAT!?!?!?!? Appointed judges reeks of potential cronyism and quid pro quo.

Bob Dole, John McCain, Mitt Romney. You're not "mainstream" you're a loser; politically speaking of course, not personally. Break free from the shackles of moderate mediocrity and re-embrace constitutional God given individual liberty and freedom.
