As many morons on DU as on freerepublic
Edited on Mon Nov-22-04 04:04 PM by Cyrano
"Bush twins turned away from NY restaurant." This is an inane posting that got 319 replies (last time I looked).

We're facing the possible destruction of planet Earth by these Republican and wingnut "Christian" maniacs and some of you have nothing better to do than to rail against Bush's daughters? Who cares what they do or don't do? They're not the point, nor are they of any importance.

We're fighting serious and deadly people who are running this country and couldn't care less about the health or well being of the American people. Nor do they care if we live or die, as long as they can make a profit or accumulate more power.

The Bush girls? Please, please, pay attention to what matters before you find yourself in a gas chamber.

2. I would partially agree.
But for different reasons.

4. I have to agree that I don't think they should
be punished just because their family comes from Hell. However, when they start running for office as Republicans, the gloves are off.

5. I don't know about you, but I am able to do two things at one
time.

Your thread seems like the same waste of time and energy that you are complaining the other post to be. :shrug:

Get over it already, let folks rant about stupid stuff. That doesn't mean they are not dealing with the real issues and to some that was a part of the issue! (It was the weekend afterall!)

In an deal world, everyone would be thinking abut matters of more consequence. But reality, people need something to distract them.

8. If I emotionally disassociate myself, I totally agree.
But after Kerry's early concession, after all of the losses, when it seems that the Nazis have all of the power and when we feel so powerless, it is gratifying to see somebody, anybody, do something that clearly says: "No, you don't own the whole world yet. You don't own this little chunk here.".

It's not a rational thing. It's a totally emotional response, borne out of the feeling of powerlessness.
