Even the mouth-breathing illiterate can sign away their lives to finance a bigass truck.

5. That's not a real "truck", it just costs as much as one.

Why, we all are. We are all Briteans. And I am your king.

12. (snort!)
Is this a reference to our current evil welfare state, to George the Third, or are the teabaggers unable to tell the difference?

4. Wouldn't "I'm a DUMBFUCK" cover it all on its own?
And "Britean's"? That is spelled wrong AND a possessive rather than plural. Dumbfuck.

6. everything is new for them
Edited on Fri May-21-10 09:27 AM by sui generis
they are political newborns and about as smart. They interpret the entire world through their myopic smog colored glasses, and of course, like a witch doctor, they claim to have the only answer.

This isn't the rise of the elitist - it's the rise of the profoundly stupid, and if we're not very very careful, before long there will be enough of them to almost completely fill up the handicap stall in the men's room at Walmart.

7. Such a well thought out, exquisitely articulated political manifesto...
I can see why the media devotes so much air time to them.

8. Truck by the water...reminds me of something I saw the other day.
I went fishing at my favorite Minnesota lake. The parking lot was full of trucks and boat trailers. On the one next to where I parked my rig had a bumper sticker on it that read: "Stop Taxing Fishermen!"

Here in Minnesota, we pay $18/yr. for our fishing licenses, with another $10 if you go trout fishing.

So, here's this guy, parked in a parking lot paid for out of local county taxes, in a park also paid for with those same taxes. He launched his boat down a launch ramp paid for by the very fishing license fees he's whining about. He'll be fishing in that lake for walleyes, which are not able to reproduce in that lake, so all the walleyes there are stocked by the state DNR, from hatcheries. All of that paid for from fishing license fees. He won't be batting at mosquitoes, because his local taxes pay for mosquito control efforts. The lake is a lot cleaner and has a lot more other fish in it, due to a DNR program to clean up lakes and control pollution from the homes that surround that lake. Paid for, once again, from fishing license fees.

If his boat stalls on the lake and he needs a tow, the county sheriff's department has a patrol boat on the lake that will assist him. Paid for by his county taxes.

He's a moron, but just doesn't know it...

11. Moments like that are why I carry a sharpie fine point permanent marker in my car
Next time pull out your marker and then cross out fishermen and write in "Dumbasses. Let's see ... 1 + 1 is 6, carry the 3, divide by 13, add the gross national product of my toilet, mix in some faux news and Rush Limpballs, and the answer is ..... $18 is too much to fish on tax supported lakes. It's a rip off and I'm voting for Sarah cause she gives me a woody."


Of maybe just cross out the fisherman part and write in dumbasses.

9. That's a NC plate, the V V along edge stands for Vietnam Vet - so those
slavery=taxes didn't apply when we were collecting the Social Security to pay him now, or anything that we used them to fund the military or veteran's programs with.

As a fellow vet, I respect his service - but dear dawg man, get a clue as to what's really going on
