I am not a Democrat but wasting the time of the House in this manner is IMO, deplorable.

Given the fact Republicans are against wasteful spending so they claim, they should also be against wasting time since time is money.

[GhostJang]

That shit was boring.

I try not to get mad often but this is such a complete waste of time and our money for a representative, any representative to take such a childish stance that has nothing to do with his district or specific policies, its no wonder why Congress' popularity is under Bush's which in itself is a monumental accomplishment.

Frankly, this is a complete embarrassment. You'd think our elected officials could at least remain civil and rational while they waste away our tax dollars.

HOW TO SPEAK REPUBLICAN

Lmao. The responses in this thread amuse me.

[Ace Hippie]

Lmao. The responses in this thread amuse me.

Why, exactly?

[Spike Lee]

Lmao. The responses in this thread amuse me.

Why does this amuse you? Because you like it when the opposing ideology to yours gets angry and it sends a childish immature feeling of accomplishment to you?

Here let me give another for you:


* Libertarians invented outrage over government waste, bureaucracy, injustice, etc. Nobody else thinks they are bad, knows they exist, or works to stop them.
* Enlightenment comes only through repetition of the sacred mantra "Government does not work" according to Guru Browne.
* Only government is force, no matter how many Indians were killed by settlers to acquire their property, no matter how many blacks were enslaved and sold by private companies, no matter how many heads of union members are broken by private police.
* Money that government touches spontaneously combusts, destroying the economy. Money retained by individuals grows the economy, even if literally burnt.
* Private education works, public education doesn't. The publicly educated masses that have grown the modern economies of the past 150 years are an illusion.
* Market failures, trusts, and oligopolies are lies spread by the evil economists serving the government as described in the "Protocols of the Elders of Statism".
* Central planning cannot work. Which is why all businesses internally are run like little markets, with no centralized leadership.
* Paternalism is the worst thing that can be inflicted upon people, as everyone knows that fathers are the most hated and reviled figures in the world.
* Government is like fire, a dangerous servant and a fearsome master. Therefore, we should avoid it entirely, as we do all forms of combustion.

Actually no. It makes me laugh at how low people go to argue politics. I don't care what views people are. I just thought the whole thing was hilarious. I'm sorry that you see me as self loathing. I don't agree with you on a lot of things, but I'll still respect your opinion.

I'm also not a anarchist if thats what you were hinting at Spike.

EDIT: I actually don't know the point of your post.

[Burningnun]

Ugh, jokes are supposed to be funny.

I apologize if I offended you then.

[Fungus Amungus]

I'm not offended. More baffled than anything.

[ROFLStomp]

I thought that was really funny. I laughed out loud when he talked about "magic" with diplomacy.

[wra]

Its where he decided to do it more than what he said.

[chrisvet]

haha, waste of tax dollars, what else is new. halfway funny too.

I wouldn't get too worked up over it.
