You're in the topmost echelon of C-D posters when it comes to arrogance, duke. The sad part is, I'll bet you're barely even old enough to vote. Try getting some life experience under your belt before you pretend to know everything.
I don't care what the hell you want, you lost in 11/04, remember.... This is politics, the president is now pushing through his policies so get over it... It's been going on for a couple a hundred years now, hasn't it?

You lost...

So how do you explain yesterday's slide? The stock market is no bellweather as far as i'm concerned when they're still announcing sales declines and record unemployment consistently across the board.

Nice try, but no cookie.

Many of us in this country are fed up with the expansion of government. If you wish to live in a socialist country where the government will do everything for you including wiping your butt then by all means move.

We prefer to live as free men in a free society.

Sign me, an extremist right wing, God loving, Bible toting, gun owner!!!

It never starts with a majority, it starts with people standing up agians't a corrupt government, the majority follows the government blindly like sheep to the slaughter,

Turn it on Fox for a second and look at the 20 people at the Alamo... No one even cares about your tea party.

What?

Try to stay with me here.

You said that the protesters were protesting against their own interests. I asked what you meant by that, and, since you know what is in everyone's best interest, what my best interest is.

Reread the above paragraph as many times as necessary before answering. Nobody said anything about the President's policies, a five year old election or anything other than what was in the above paragraph, except for you.

Please elaborate on "Little do they know they are protesting against their own best interest..."

Thank you.

Nothing to do with diversity, though the picture were amazingly white. More to do with a lot of hype and very few protesters. I'm reminded of the old Wendy's commercial, "Where's the beef?"

I have no problem whatsoever with protest! It's one of our most valuable rights.

However, call it what it is. There are plenty of people there just to rail against Obama, taxes or no taxes.
