What ARE you people, SHEEP ?!
Edited on Wed Feb-08-06 12:14 PM by rpgamerd00d
What the HELL is with all of the posts about the funeral comments?!?!?!

ARE YOU BUYING THE BULLSHIT FROM THE RW MEDIA !?!?!

Knock it the FUCK off!

USE YOUR BRAIN.

They are attacking the comments because THEY EMBARASSED BUSH.

They embarrased Bush because THEY WERE DEAD ON ACCURATE and 100% APPROPRIATE.

USE YOUR BRAIN.

NO ONE IS UPSET OVER THE COMMENTS. *NO ONE*.

Its 100% BULLSHIT.

USE YOUR BRAIN.

:D

4. I'm not buying what the rw media said
I'm glad for the posts, because they include links to videos of the wonderful speeches by Clinton and Carter. And it was amusing to see the trolls come out and get tombstoned.

5. You make a good point
The only people that will be offended are the same people that voted for him. So yes, a lot of wasted effort worrying about it.

They've predictably shown up posting their Right Wing Talking Points.

11. Whack-A-Troll. I love it! I also think it's good to let the corporate
media expose their true selves. They are quite nasty, and it's good they are de-cloaking.
The only way we can cure this infection is to expose it. IMO.

where the terms of the debate have already been set by the right wing.

10. The news media creates controversy



and from that they write their stories. It's like a farmer planting seed.

I hate to over simplify but that's the way it is.

Just think of all the mountains that have been made of molehills in the past. They are just perpetuating their shabby existence.

15. I didn't know anybody was saying that...
...but if they are they should STFU and go visit FR.

King was a peacenik, essentially a socialist, who called "shame" on America's inequality problem. If he were alive he would definitely be a Bush-basher and opposed to this war, And the same goes for Mrs. King, so any anti-Bush, anti-fascist comments would be entirely apropos. If anything, they honor the life they led.

17. Now you mention it, I do use a sheep as my avatar on another site
It's much better than the famous politicians or national flags they offer ... and an atheist goat isn't too far from a sheep either. :-)

20. Freedom of speech
is only allowed for insulting muslims.

It does not include the right to criticise *. He's far too sensitive.

26. thank you...well said
...the utter audacity of the complaint , the chutzpah for anyone to complain.........the classless neocons and water boys and girls...it is a disgrace...how dare they?
They are lucky that the state of voting in this country was not discussed.Would Coretta want her people to "sit pretty"....hell no. Black Floridians and Black Ohioans were ROBBED of their right to vote under BUSH and the highly esteemed Government Accountability Offices lengthy report attested to to the truth of that statement....tell the "water wingnuts"!!!!!
The picture of Bush nearly in a fetal position and Pickles with her hand elegantly clutching her arms....like Mother Superior.....Blacks were fucked under this excuse for a President of the United States of America and why should blacks in this country care about him.Good God have these water carriers and professional politicians no shame?????....whoa
I heard Kate O'Bitch complain on matthews and she was so "down her nose" like she was smelling something very nasty(like Pickles at the funeral)...the classless calling the blacks classless...how charming.....how else can they divide us... Democrats against Republican
Christians against Christians
Americans against Americans
Blacks against Whites
The Gentry against The People
The Liars against The Truth Seekers
The Warmongers against The Peacemakers
Good against Evil

George Bush and his "friends" are EVIL....

27. Remember Margaret Thatcher made a video before Reagan died.
Because she was a partisan ally. Because she had Parkinson's. Because they shared the same message.

And nobody complained about that.

The DVD of this funeral is something I will buy and watch. And go back to again & again.

So many things to consider and ponder.

Does anyone know where you can get the DVD?

28. Can you provide a link?
I really have no idea what thread you are referring to, and also not sure how long you've been on DU since your profile is disabled, but if there is one thing I've learned in over a year on DU is that there are huge, and I mean HUGE, amounts of freepers and DINOS around here.

They always turn up when their "hero, leader, god" has been slammed. :rofl:

They are TOTAL mental cases.

Edited on Wed Feb-08-06 01:01 PM by raysr
a TV camera, swift boat all repukes. Say it, do it, don't stop! Make it like the RW response to anything, "Yeah but look at what Clinton did!" "Yeah but what about those missing WMD's, what about those wiretaps?, why hasn't he caught OBL?" Swing the fucking hammer!!! And just discovered today, "Did you know Bush is still trying to privatise SS in his new budget???" Say this stuff anywhere you have an audience.

30. Or accepting of what is to come? (aka apathetic)
And what's the point of using one's brain when there's no positive outcome?

And if you think my response is inappropriate, your :D smilie at the end of your post doesn't do much help either.

32. /rant + smile, means I was mad but now Im better.
And I don't see how thats relevant to the discussion.

As far as ranting about the RW media, why bother? Why post here the same FUCKING Talking Points that RW media is spreading? Its fucking stupid. You may be hypnotized by the RW, but I am not, and I am trying to make sure no one else is, either.

The positive outcome of NOT REPEATING BULLSHIT is that you don't start BELIEVING THE BULLSHIT.

39. Right. If the Repubs attacked Clinton, and we did this in the media...
... the repubs would scream "Sour Grapes! Ha ha ha ha!" and our critizsm would turn on us.

WE NEED TO DO THAT.
