I'm getting PAID by former House Majority Leader Dick Armey (R/TX) to go around and protest at various congressional "town hall meetings". Sweet. All I had to do was agree to the following to get hired on:

I (print your name) agree that I have no morals, no ability to think for myself and will do anything I'm told by those paying me. I have no compuntion about lying, and generally making an a**-hole of myself.

(Or I could just sign the following statement)

I (print your name) swear that I am a member of the Republican party.

Now if I could just get them to pay me to post ridiculous right wing propaganda on various forums I'd be making real dough.

Good for you! I am glad that you have a job and are off of the public dole.

Actually I should have started a thread titled "many C-D posters getting hired on part time jobs". I turned it down because I couldn't in good conscience sign either statement. Unlike viewfromthepeak (where the thin air is getting to her) who CAN'T READ.

Like all those crowds cheering on Castro or Kim Il Jong, for hours on end, they WILL cheer him, or else they'll be starving next week in a prison camp. Same with the GOP crowds; round them up, liquor them up, and turn the GOP lynch mobs loose on others so the fat cat corporate owners of the GOP can keep their obscene profits and lousy health care charade going merrily along while Americans gets sicker and sicker.
