1. My Question:

Why do you obsess over a fetus but deny those already born access to health care, a quality education, decent housing, etc - all the basics that make life bearable?

[WCGreen]

2. Seriously MFM....

That is the first time in a while I actually laughed out loud...

[MiddleFingerMom]

6. You just made my night. Thanks. n/t

[pacalo]

26. You should have heard my husband laugh -- he thought it was HILARIOUS!

He noticed it right away as he was passing behind me.

[CurtEastPoint]

3. To quote Beverly Sutphin ('Serial Mom')... "[Mrs. Hinkle...]Are you insane?"

they are all a tad loopy.

[brewens]

4. Lots of them if I could get a straight answer.

If Obama's policies have been such a disaster, name one and the resulting consequenses?

[provis99]

5. my question: Why can't you all drop dead?

[JohnnyRingo]

7. "do you believe Barney Frank hijacked Fannie Mae and handed out loans on his own...

...as if it was his money, or do you think he had to do it because of 'The American Dream Downpayment Initiative' signed into law by GW Bush in 2003?" I'll follow up by asking why federal charges haven't been filed against Mr Frank for wresting control from a Republican congress and senate and running a renegade organization within the government.

The ADDI demanded that government lending institutuions grant 0% loans with no down payment to low income first time buyers. The owners had to live in the homes for six years or pay the downpayment and accrued interest. The law went into effect in 2004, and when owners lost their jobs to the Great Recession they soon found themselves in a default situation. They didn't have the money to buy out, and the homes weren't worth as much as they owed.

I'm getting so sick of these Republicans making political hay on the notion that Barney Frank went against republicans by making risky loans and single handedly caused the housing crash. Only one quarter of the loans that defaulted in 2008 were held and regulated by government institutions. The other three quarters were by banks like Countryside. The truth is, Barney Frank was the only Democrat in arms reach when the house of cards Bush built collapsed.

Does no one remember the "Home Ownership President"? Bush gave that speech before a wallpaper background printed with the HUD and Fannie Mae logos.

8. LOLOLOLOL...

**stolen**

[mmonk]

9. Are you crazy?

[cindyperry2010]

10. While I like your question

mine is more basic why don't you have any idea of the tough road us poor folk go through everyday and why don't you give a fuck?

[Uben]

11. (tilting head back) "They went up thru the nose."

"You win." (one of the funniest commercials I've seen in years)


Meaning-I can't outdo that one.

[Scuba]

12. Why is Social Security, with a $2.6T trust fund, "broke", but the Army's not?

[BlancheSplanchnik]

13. haaaaa, gooood one MFM!

mine would be:

Why do you hate us so?



maybe they hate us because we're human beings, and they are cold, evil pod people?

[MiddleFingerMom]

20. The more I learn, the more I see projection behind generalized hatred.

.
.
.
They look within and see such ugliness and HAVE to believe that
they're "no different than the rest of the world".
.
.
.
There's all sorts of complexities and environmental factors, but I'm
feeling more and more that this is a basic foundation of that hatred
that they spew.
.
.
.They see themselves rollin', they hatin'.
.
.

[BlancheSplanchnik]

29. yep...projecting themselves onto their surroundings

makes sense....we interpret the world according to our individual filters or state of life. People who are good hearted tend to assume that other people think the same way. People who are concerned with taking advantage of others assume that others are trying to do that to them.....

Most of them seem especially blind to themselves; that's the blaming everyone and everything for what they themselves do.

[flying rabbit]

14. WTF?

You're killin me.

that's a keeper

[jmowreader]

15. Mine...

There are three well-known, tested and proven economic truisms:

The only reason jobs are created, anywhere, is when demand for products and services increases.

Increased government spending on civil works projects creates increased demand for products and services, both in the companies providing the work to the government and in the employees of those companies. This spending, therefore, creates jobs and always has.

Cutting taxes requires cuts in civil works investment, which reduces demand for products and services, which causes job loss.

Because we know these things and they are always true, my question is, when will the Republican Party quit pretending that cutting taxes creates jobs?

[Merlot]

16. How is smaller gov't compatible with putting the gov't between women and their healthcare decisions?

bonus points if you explain why your religious view should be forced on those who don't believe them in this land of "freedom of religion."

[GaltFreeDiet]

17. My question would involve feces as well.

[MiddleFingerMom]

21. All the great ones doo (doo). n/t

[guitar man]

18. Lolol!!

Great graphic

My question:

"The latest census data shows that 1 out of every 2 people in this country are poor. Are you ready to admit now that 3 decades of Reaganomics has been a dismal failure?"

[Tyrs WolfDaemon]

19. I could think of several

one would be: Why do you keep pissing in Founders' faces and telling them it is lemonade?

[Dragonbreathp9d]

22. 38=x^2 +2 what does x=?

[coalition_unwilling]

27. Along those same lines, can you define the Scientific Method? Follow-up: Do you

consider the Scientific Method a valid means for determining the nature of reality? If not, why not?

Huntsman would probably win that round, I'm guessing

Force those assholes to defend their epistemological lacunae, if only for the comedic value

[Dragonbreathp9d]

31. How can you support Social-Darwinism and deny evolution?

[coalition_unwilling]

32. Bwa-ha-ha. Good one! :) - n/t

[T S Justly]

23. Why do you act stupid? ... Follow-up question: Is it just for the money? K&R (nt)

[coalition_unwilling]

24. Wife and I are both laughing at this. Thanks - n/t

[bhikkhu]

25. How do you plan to end the War on Terror?

I expect the answer would be - why would we ever want to end it? Its like a gift that just keeps on giving!

[Aerows]

28. Mine would be

Why aren't you on medication for your obvious delusions, and why aren't you for health care so that your supporters can get the mental help they obviously need, too?

[Presidentcokedupfratboy]

30. Insanity

Each pf you keeps saying we can't raise taxes on the wealthy and deregulation is key to the economy. It hasn't worked and got us into this mess. How can you honestly think trhese ideas can ever work?

[Lil Missy]

33. How will you pay for the Bush tax cuts. n/t
