I watched a show about the intelligence of crows last night. Amazing creatures, smarter than a dog and probably on par with some great apes. They are self-aware, aware that another has a personality, tool using, able to reason, teach, learn, use red traffic lights to drop walnuts to crack the shell so that they are less likely to get hit, mate for a longer period than liberals, are obviously better parents and are completely ambivalent about dole - They are indeed smarter and better people than liberals.
You are obviously afraid of the Tea Party, my girl Sarah, etc.. I believe that is my clue to get involved and help the movement drive you people crazy-er. Think of me as the right's answer to Soros (What is money but a representation of time?).
Come to think of it, what kind of a simple mind wud even start a thread knowing that the outcome wud be to incite animosity in a "room" of varying opinions. What kind of a sick F'ing pervert wud deliberately do that? Does it excite you? I was astonished to learn that liberals were actually slower learners than crows... and so brazen in their aggression, I am starting to believe that war is becoming inevitable. Que sera, sera. I suppose it wud be better than the alternative and we cud use a little cleansing.

they aren't cohesive, just a bunch of people with similar feelings and reactions

I'll go so far as to call it a movement but it is far from organized except by those that hold events using them as decoration like beck, then they leave and go back home

there is no hierarchy

It's telling that a cretin like you would think anything smarter than a dog is amazing.

What, they don't realize when one light turns red, the other turns green? I would think they're smart enough to drop the walnut where there wasn't any traffic to begin with, and I know you're stupid enough to fall for the ******** you're fed.

Chroy, is this the best you can do? I wudn't know where to begin with a guy that is admonishing crows for not noticing that the other direction of traffic will show a few seconds later. (They didn't drop them in the intersection - you didn't think of that!)

what the gop stands for

One out of every 34 Americans who earned wages in 2008 earned absolutely nothing -- not one cent -- in 2009.

The stunning figure was released earlier this month by the Social Security Administration, but apparently went unreported until it appeared today on Tax.com in a column by Pulitzer Prize-winning tax reporter David Cay Johnston.

It's not just every 34th earner whose financial situation has been upended by the financial crisis. Average wages, median wages, and total wages have all declined -- except at the very top, where they leaped dramatically, increasing five-fold.

Johnston writes that while the number of Americans earning more than $50 million fell from 131 in 2008 to 74 in 2009, those that remained at the top increased their income from an average of $91.2 million in 2008 to almost $519 million.

The wealth is astounding, says Johnston. "That's nearly $10 million in weekly pay!... These 74 people made as much as the 19 million lowest-paid people in America, who constitute one in every eight workers."

Johston sees the depressing figures as a result of government tax policies maintained by politicians with an eye on re-election, not good government:

Hasn't anyone told you yet, Mark? Liberals and atheists have lower divorce rates than conservatives and evangelical Christians. Welcome to the real world, instead of the fantasy one built for you by an unholy alliance of preachers, big business propagandists, talk-show hosts and GOP politicians...

Afraid of Sarah Palin? Ummm....yeah....that's it...I'm scared.... Yup; scared to death.

But tell you what, Mark: don't mind me. You go right ahead and help your girl Sarah. Give her as much help as you possibly can. If the Democrats are really lucky, maybe you can even help her run for President in 2012. I don't think she's dumb enough to actually do it, though. She'll talk about how she can be more effective and do more good from the outside. While she's busy raking in the cash from suckers like you, and avoiding any actual responsibility or commitment.

But I can always hope....

Well, no. For some odd reason, having a cockroach like you derail a reasonable thread while calling me every name you can think of doesn't 'excite' me. On the other hand, I wouldn't be surprised to find that you've done most of your typing on here with one hand....

Are you talking armed revolution again, Mark? You're so cute when you play GI Joe... You should get your mom to take pictures of you in your little camo outfits. Do you have them in different colors, for spring and back to school?

Well, they're doing exactly what you keep hinting around you want to do; taking to the streets to fight the government, instead of doing it at the voting booth. You're the one who should be proud....

No, actually. I was actually motivated to say "inevitable" by your brain trust, Parr, when he threatened me.
You have a way of distorting things to suit your view. First, I have no way of knowing where you got this; "Liberals and atheists have lower divorce rates than conservatives and evangelical Christians" nor its legitimacy but I answer "not in my world". Sounds like a study conducted by your type.
On the topic of elections, f'head;

My prediction is if Republicans gain the smallest bit of seats that will let them claim victory, they will turn 180 degrees and will sponsor and vote for and pass the very same policies they have spent 2 years blocking. Not only that, they will strut and puff and proclaim it as proof positive that they are the party for the people and that it was their idea to begin with. Spineless, conniving mutts, the top of the heap occupied for the moment by howling, **** throwing monkeys as showcased by mark775.
Now the last part about claiming victory, passing the policies and **** throwing monkeys I can totally agree with.

Sorry; wrong again. It came from a study conducted by an evangelical minister. And he got an earful for his troubles, too. Apparently, conducting an impartial study and getting unpopular results that don't match people's preconceived notions is 'un-Christian.'

And I fail to see what U-tube videos about Barbara Boxer have to do with making predictions about the upcoming election.

Instead of all the carrying on and thrashing around you've been doing, why don't you just tell us what you think will happen on election day? After all, that's the clearly stated subject of the thread. It isn't my fault you derailed instantly and started screaming irrelevencies -- instead of simply answering the question, or passing it by.
