Sure, it's a sign of refinement that a person would recite poetry, or enjoy a fugue, but if they then proclaim the sorts of right-wing silliness you guys emit?... <br /><br />Yeah, I'm in awe of the classiness.

You are not going to learn to understand or even engage the honest mind here at this Republican web-site.<br />Going to the Liberal or the Progressive web-sites where it is entertaining and will also give you insight as to the mentality but, commenting on those sites may be as useless as the national Republican blogs.<br />I like to use the Liberal blogs and news sites to find ammunition of counter arguments and facts to use in the local blogs. Always be courteous and do not allow yourself to be baited.<br />They fit the description of your post to a Tee Party.<br />The right-wing Republicans are of the worst kind.<br />Beyond that, it was a good rant.<br /><br />The Liberal blogs are more important as they are more grass roots, enable more flexible opinion and thinking. <br />Don’t be misguided by these holier than thou repubs who are so righteous... A lot of Christians wear crosses around their necks. You think when Jesus comes back he's gonna want to see a cross? That's kinda like going up to Jackie Kennedy with a rifle pendant on.<br />And these are the same folks who are for abortions. <br />I will attempt not to respond further on this, as I realize it's off-topic.

It killed live. I remember the first line of the main verses, "Blessed are the Dope-Heads," LOL! Good times... It was a lyrical tribute updated for today's hapless souls, but it went a little further, and the last line opened with "Blessed are the Evil" and strangely enough, that always drew a cheer, like they really got the point. I should produce that song one day.

He thus addressed him: "Sirrah, last year you grossly insulted me." "Indeed," bleated the Lamb in a mournful tone of voice, "I was not then born." Then said the Wolf, "You feed in my pasture." "No, good sir," replied the Lamb, "I have not yet tasted grass." Again said the Wolf, "You drink of my well." "No," exclaimed the Lamb, "I never yet drank water, for as yet my mother's milk is both food and drink to me." Upon which the Wolf seized him and ate him up, saying, "Well! I won't remain supper-less, even though you refute every one of my imputations." <br /><br />The tyrant will always find a pretext for his tyranny.</i> ~ Aesop-FJ the Dangerous and Extreme MAGA Jewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16745768408538827278noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-145653764764266444.post-83156940078105938352015-03-22T12:57:05.132-04:002015-03-22T12:57:05.132-04:00Blessed are the peacemakers:
