I have just one account... It's a distorted sense of humor that allows me to thank Malleus for reposting something I did earlier. :p

And I like the guy because he bashes everyone. This snippet was not another way to make fun of someone's pain from 9/11, it was made, IMHO as a way to look at the shell game that the Bush administration has been shoving down our throats these past two years.

I certainly don't want to get on a political soapbox here, but I DO have strong Republican leanings. I've voted for them in several Presiidential elections, and try to keep a Republican governor in my state house.

However, I do believe that Bush is playing the general population for fools, and we swallow it, because as a whole, the U.S. populace is too damn stupid to read a paper or watch the news.

How do tax cuts NOT favor the rich?

Why are gas prices still through the roof?

Still haven't found any WMD? Seriously?

Dozens more of my brothers getting killed daily in Iraq. Infantry does police work so well, don't we?

Redistriction in Texas is fair..... how?

And I could go on and on, this is just off the top of my head. At least this guy puts the problem in a humorous manner. And no, I don't want to make light of 9/11, but watch what the left hand is doing while you are being hypnotized by the right.

Nope, and deleted the post, let my fingers talk before my head caught up. No reason to get mad.

What was false on that video for those that are criticising it?

I didn't watch more than 15 seconds of it.  9/11 and the twin towers is not an acceptable basis for humor of any sort IMHO.

So you comment out of ignorance of the video then. Watch it then make a comment of its contents. You might just be surprised, maybe not. It in no way makes "fun" of the victims or the attacks.

How did you find out about THAT??!! I blamed that on our pet dog, Missy. ;)
Seriously, care to actually answer my question above?

First thing I saw was some wacky cartoon character.  Wacky cartoons are not a suitable medium for discussion of that topic IMHO.  I'm not going to watch the rest of it, I couldn't give a rat's bellybutton what Fiore has to say about anything.  Tasteless.

But you care enough to comment on it. You probably did watch it and didn't like how he portrays our president.

Edit: Is this how you collect information? Ignore everything you happen to not like or agree with?

Look up satire in the dictionary. Find a clever way to use it. Posting a 3rd party cartoon that sucked in the first place won't make you Airhead in a day.  I know Sandman is just jizzing all over himself thanking the second posting, but...  See?

 I feel just as bad for the men trapped in the Arizona so I'm no poem posting ultra American that begins squirting tears at the of mention of 9/11, or Pearl Harbor as far as that goes, but that is some tasteless cartoon crap.

So it is true that Bush cut taxes just to eliminate firehouses in New York? What do you think.

So some NY firehouses were not closed due to some federal budget cuts?

I didn't watch it.  The only comment I care to make on it is that it's tasteless.  Why do you feel the need to make this personal?
