Monday Potpourri

bigtoona is pretty sure burning books is the key to victory:

Stand and fight, burn the textbooks, make them replace them! the founders fought with only about 30% support of the population and won.

ThunderSleeps knows Al Queda is gonna kill us all, and is just lulling us into a false sense of security:

Oh look, A-Q tosses a few boneheaded ops out there for bammy and his cohorts to “find” and thwart. bammy is enough of a babe in the woods not to see it for what it is. That’s an experienced organization showing you what you want to see and collecting intel on your response, response time, decision loop, etc. When they’re ready, they will strike, and they will bring their A game. I guarantee you bammy and Co. is not ready for that.

fatnotlazy knows how to fix health care:

I agree — repeal Obamacide, but DO NOT REPLACE IT. Otherwise, these fools will trot out an even worse scheme — such as universal health care.

IMR 4350 knows Bush only kept Osama bin Laden alive was strategery:

The reason Bush kept Osama bin Laden alive was because it kept al Qaida centralized.

Anyone above the level of idiot knew killing OBL would make it more difficult to stop terrorist attacks because every terrorist in the world would be jockeying to take his place as the big dog in the terrorist world.

Zarkawi(sp?) out of Iraq found out in 2006 what happens when you tried to go around OBL and carry out an attack without his permission.

Jim Noble still thinks Medicare is a socialist plot nearly 50 years later:

The socialists in Congress in 1965 knew, I believe, that Medicare would (somehow) smash capitalism. But, being socialists, they did not anticipate all the creations of the medical-industrial complex that would start to incur deficits as early as 1984.

Since the Great Compromise of 1986, Congress has paid for all this by borrowing or printing money. All of them, Republicans and Democrats alike, understand that they’ve created a monster and that their foundational promises of 1965 were lies, but none of them have a clue how to end it.

cunning_fish responds to someone saying 'it's not all religion' :

Freepers have a terrible time understanding the world and the way it works. The world is not hung up on religion as the be all, end all for all action.

Putin supports Iran because Iran is a very good customer. One takes care of his customers.

Business trumps religion

Not to mention that Iran is a mortal foe of Sunni terrorists and a good leverage against Saudi-backed Al-Qaeda and Muzzie bros who are worse than Iran by a large margin.

faithhopecharity knows Iran is now ready to nuke America:

remember those Iranian nuclear missiles O has been protecting for five long years?

remember what the Iranian Mullahs keep saying, that their number one target is USA (their “Great Satan”)

mrsmel hates feminism, so she joins the mens rights movement:

There’s a lot of websites in the “manosphere” where single and divorced men talk about being onstrike or opting out of dealing with women in any kind of relationship because the courts are stacked against them if they get involved, even if not in a married relationship. Hearing about women like this harpy, I really don’t blame the men. Also, things like “my body, my choice”, but the man has no choice in whether to pay for the woman’s “choice”, even if it’s not his kid. (I don’t know if or how much that has changed since DNA testing became possible. I wouldn’t be surprised if in some really leftist states, the man would still have to pay just because the woman has become accustomed to the lifestyle he provided for her and a kid not his own).

Bronco_Buster_FweetHyagh finds the lack of torture in America to be a serious problem.

Prison? For molesting young boys? We have a serious problem in this country.

Prison does not come close to justice.

This piece of trash should be tortured then murdered.

envisio is sure the big money is in Freeper movies:

I have seen it and read countless articles of how liberal movies bomb at the box office. While Christian themed or patriotic movies enjoy big numbers. When will these people learn?
Fine.... let them waste millions on these stupid productions. I hope they go bankrupt.

SoFloFreeper smugly points out Obama is only approved of by not Real Americans:

The clown has an 86% approval rating from blacks, a 53% approval from youth, and that is just about the ONLY demos where he is over the halfway mark.

He is a FAILURE.

RinaseaofDs predicts that Russia is going to invade America, and then China.

China’s done quite a bit to kill itself of late, and haven’t learned Russia’s lesson that ‘less is more’ in terms of territorial control.

It’s not clear if China’s going to make it as the country she is today or not, but what is clear is that she needs the US consumer market or the jig is up. Demand will contract so fast that there will be food riots in China inside of a week if we went away.

China has 40MM Chinese men between the age of 18 and 40 that they don’t know what to do with at the moment. If China and Russia didn’t share a border, the Russians may happily decide to waste the US and take its chances.

The Chinese wouldn’t like it, but economically, the Russians don’t need us, so if the US went away, so what?

The weaker the Chinese get financially, and the stronger the Russians get, eventually there will be a doctrine point at which the Chinese won’t be able to afford war with Russia. At that point, Russia will take us out, and may ally with China to control Europe.

Then all those troops will be headed South.

I said the Russians will take us out. I didn’t say they’d nuke us.

broken_arrow1 is just waiting for the government to target him, then it's ON!

We are all waiting for the government to start shooting Tea Party pro-life, pro 2A extremists. They are not welcome in New York. That will be the breaking point. No one has died here yet...but it is getting closer by the day.

LibLieSlayer has decided drones and Afghanistan don't count:

Congrats to the Russians... this is how one deals with terrorists... not this republic of idiots... they voted for a terrorist TWICE!

Arlis knows former Virginia Governor Bob McDonnell isn't to blame - it's his grasping wife!

My wife nailed this when the matter first became public - it was Maureen doing all the requests.....and that she ruled over Bob, demanding a life beyond their means, pushing Williams......(wife is a saint, and can smell a wicked woman a mile away).

It may be that Bob gets off lightly, but she is the one who gets hard time.

I have had time with Bob twice, seems a sincere and super guy. Very stupid in his involvement here, and in letting his wife rule him. Frankly, I doubt that any of this would have happened apart from her.

Oliviaforever gives the real story on Senator Vitter and prostitutes:

You are spreading half truths about Sen. Vitter.

The whole truth is as Sen. Vitter stated, and that is that while he may have visited a prostitute, he did so only to talk and nothing else like you have implied.

Sen. Vitter is a very ethical and moral family man with a stressful job and needed someone to talk to.

Moreover, he was likely talking to these prostitutes not just about his problems, but trying to guide these women to a more moral life.
