        Media Matters is a little like the "High Plains Drifter", no wonder The Extreme Right is so Mift.
        I heard Tucker Carlson call Media Matters & The NAACP Pathetic, i guess the Truth Really Hurts.
        Perhaps Obama should place his Children's Family Photos Face Down for Mr. Tucker to Symbolize Dirt.

        Speak truth to power.

          What the right really wants is no one to call them out on their sh!t and we all know it. MMFA provides a tremendous service to us all by being a true thorn in the side of those on the right who want us all to just roll over and play dead while they destroy the political discourse of the nation.

            "When they stop telling lies about us, we'll stop telling the truth about them!"

            That was Democratic Presidential Candidate Adlai Stevenson (among many others before him), and I think MMFA should have it displayed right next to their logo at the top of their page.

      So today I went shopping with my mother. She cannot walk any significant distances so she is required to use an electric cart that is supplied by the stores. We went to 3 different department stores and each time she parked the electric cart in the parking lot which would require a store employee to retrieve the cart. I believe that we created and/or saved 3 jobs today. Hey, that is 3 more than Barry Obama created this year.

          Seriously, MidnightRider, masquerading as another poster? Do you have any class or honesty at all? That was a rhetorical question, since the answer is clearly "no."

          There's an old saying in Texas - I know it's in New Jersey, it's probably in Texas - that says, if it looks like a punk and it acts like a punk, we can't get fooled again.

        And there's an example (as if there weren't enough already) of what Burns said: it's the Republican's "summer of hate".

        Why don't you buy your mother her own electric cart instead of freeloading on small businesses that I'm sure must not only eat the cost of the carts, but also maintenance and insurance, as well? Why don't you and your mother try to help small businesses instead of just sucking up their profits with luxuries such as electric carts?

        Hey, it's R2D2. Still living in your mom's basement, huh?



        BTW You didn't create or save any jobs. There is some kid/retiree that is making minimum wage cleaning the lot out from all those carts people are too busy/lazy to put up. Not to mention that most stores will come out with you, or wait with your mom at the door while you get the car.(if you actually have a license)
        They wouldn't want one of those carts to run off, now would they.

        I use those carts myself, mainly because I cannot afford one of my own, and the last time I looked - yesterday, I think - they said "IN STORE USE ONLY". So, if you are taking them out of the store, you are violating the agreement. Why don't you just go get the car for your mother, instead, so that she won't have to walk far from where - IN THE STORE - she gets off the scooter.

        P.S. I can see that you only watch Fox. Mr. Burns has been on TV speaking on various subjects. But I would like to see Mr. Burns on more shows talking about the hatred of the Fox nut.

          Ah just kidding. He'll prolly need all that money to help him in his old age with all of that damage he sustained from those many, many concussions. ;-)

          You could tell Boner wasn't sure of what to say. It was as if he hadn't received permission from the real leaders of the party to go ahead and say "Don't burn the books." Therefore, he was very hesitant.

        Here Seahawks123, let's talk about who screws who:

        http://www.slate.com/id/2266174/slideshow/2266174/fs/0//entry/2266218/

        No, let's divert the conversation away from Real Income Statistics. What about Security, God and Flag waving?? Please let's not look at how stupid you have to be to vote Republican when you don't earn seven figures. Oops, wait, they even did better under Democrats than Republicans.

        My grandfather told me that the Republican Party is a party strictly for rich people in 1971. Looks like nothing really changes with Conservatives. Before 1980 nay 1968, they at least stood for some sort of fiscal responsibility but what is the actual reason to support their policies now? For the American Empire? To subjugate the less powerful? or to stop pre-marital sex, masturbation, evolution and abortion?

        You're the greatest pro-abortion argument here Seahawks123. You used to attempt some sort of feeble argument and now all you got is this. eh?
        You're giving imbeciles a bad name.
