That's the invite to get right there.
An Obama news item in the Swarm! You know what that means. Brace yourselves for another bullshit rant from Mr. "Obama is Hitler" himself, Thirteenburn!
I thought the exact same thing!
Poor misguided Uh-oh. He and F-Off are so emboldened by their chosen one, Muhammad "Barack" Obama coming into power I'll bet they're both fighting over his used toilet paper on eBay.
Typical of all liberals - they want everybody to be "polite" and "sensitive" to THEIR way of thinking ONLY. There are no negotiations. Sorry but I happen to think for myself and I don't need Mommy or Daddy to hold my hand through life telling me how to think and act.
As to my "bullshit Hitler rant", I find it hard to understand how they were able to get this far through life without a High School education? Working their whole lives at the local McDondald's must be tough. But now that the chosen one is in office, I'm sure they're both wating for their money from the "stimulus" to take care of them forever and ever. But point of fact is that both pre-Hitler Germany and the last election are mirror images. Both countries voted into power men who were untried and untested for what their jobs were to be and both were elected strictly based on image and hyperbole.
I never once claimed or stated that Muhammad "Barack" Obama was Hitler. Not once. Nor did I ever cast aspersions on Obama's race, as F-Off claimed. Too bad they never made it out of the fourth grade as while F-Off was calling me a racist, anyone could read my very words above his and see I never once said anything offensive towards or about his ethnicity, so he comes off sounding and acting like a little kid who throws temper tantrums because he can't get what he wants. You must learn how to read before you speak, sir. It's embarrassing but then again, a raging case of arrogance is part and parcel of being a liberal.
I make no apologies for my views. They are my own and I have every right to espouse them when I wish. It's too bad that liberals can't understand that. As long as you agree with them, it's all good but if you don't, you're a racist, homophobe, etc., and their hollow protestations are nothing more than empty yammering, much akin to the dogs barking as they chase a car, but that car still rolls on unaffected by the loudmouthed mutts.
PC is for weak-minded individuals who can't face the harsh truth of reality. They have to make up their own set of rules, hence the name POLITICAL correctness. It's not correct, but POLITICALLY correct, which means it's all made up on the fly.
Whatever. Once again, both Uh-oh and F-Off have proven, yet again, that the collective stupidity of the whiny, elitist, knee-jerk, bleeding-heart, uber-liberal Democrat Party is surpassed ONLY by their incredible and mind numbing intellectual dishonesty.
Pathetically sad, but so very, VERY true.
Gosh, Uh-oh, u know how to predict the future! "Bullshit rant" indeed!
LOL! Someone's feelings are hurt!
Dude, if Bush didn't fuck up so bad, Obama would have never been elected. George Bush is responsible for the election of Barack Obama.
Hands up to those who want to relive the past 8 years? Didn't think so.
Thirteenburn, reading your post, you're obviously someone who is intelligent, bordering on genius. But don't forget, SO WAS HITLER!
I thought this was a music site.
I make no apologies for my views either. Fuck you, you dumb cunt.
