Oh sweet Jebus, you're not gonna belive this one...

[Rosco T.]

.. well you might.

I just had a conversation with a semi-friend republican and said "was kinda neat today, got some Presidential dollars in change, we'll get rid of the useless dollar bill eventually".

He went off..

"Gawddamn Democrats keep pushing that... when will ..."

(brace yourself)

"... the government quit trying to take over the money! It's not theirs!"

I stared at him for a full 2 minutes to make sure he wasn't kidding, then lost it and fell off my chair laughing... literally!

1. Probably been listening to Limbaugh or some other Repugnant

My father-in law once said Obama was going to take guns away after watching Glenn Beck. Some people are susceptible to being brainwashed.

3. The guns and ammo mfgrs love BecKKK to death.

Sales went through the roof after he came out with that line of bullshit.

10. Yes but they were right...

Obama took all the guns and ammo away except for the ones that were stockpiled and hidden.

7. Given that President Obama is responsible for every damn thing that's happened since 2000,

it's no wonder.

I've had to (repeatedly) ask one of my own sisters if she has any clue what the President actually does... checks and balances, and all that shit.

8. Well, after all, it is in the hands of the Federal Reserve,

a private entity, so in a way, he's right...

9. Some InfoTainment from the 1950s...

These are from the show What's My Line? one of my favorites.

The Treasurer of the United States--Advises the above officials

As these officials make clear, making US money is a function of the government.

Hopefully he can learn something as well as have some fun, but sheesh.
