Girl #1: So what ever happened with your sister’s ticket?
Girl #2: Oh, she's taking it to court.
Girl #1: You know what I heard (and she should tell the judge)? That if you are smoking and get pregnant you shouldn’t quit, because you will send the baby into shock.
Girl #2: Really? I'll tell her that.

This is why the trailer trash population is booming. Well, that and the idea that it is okay to start breeding after dropping out of grade 10
ticket... for smoking while pregnant? Since when has that been illegal?

I'm guessing it was for smoking in a restaurant or something, and the pregnant thing is an excuse to get out of it...
Isn't that always the excuse that trailer trash people use, is that "them rules" are wrong? Using this as a pretext for their rebellion, seems to be as classic as a fluffed mullet w/ mustache combo.

Dick Cheney is not an illiterate white trash redneck. He is an intelligent, principled human being with a functioning brain. Some of you lefties might want to look into getting one of those...

Dick Cheney loves bush.

So...you think the VP of the US intentionally shot an old man?
Not only do I think he did it intentionally, I think he derived a great deal of pleasure from it as well!

Uh, OK...(backing away slowly)
Neo-cons suck the devil's ass.
And I say that as a moderate, not a lefty.
2:16 and 2:39, you get tickets for smoking pot.
Smoking while pregnant is always bad. Quiting will not send the baby into shock...fucking moron doctor should have his/her licence taken away.
The funny part is that by the standard of moderates, the CPC is far more extreme than the NDP. The NDP has a progresive agenda to improve our society, while the Conservatives simply want to slash and burn what we currently have. I doubt that I will vote NDP, but I know sure as hell that I am never going to vote CPC.
I concur wit 8:31. The NDP represent a far larger portion of the population than does the Conservatives. The CPC is nothing more than a self serving organization bent on improving the lives of only the wealthy (+ $200k household income). While on the other hand the NDP believes in lessening the tax burden for those wha can support it the least, the working and middle class.
So...you think the VP of the US intentionally shot an old man?
Not at all. I was just questioning the whole "He is an intelligent, principled human being with a functioning brain." People with those qualities generally don't mistake their friends for quale. Especially when the mistake results in a gun being fired.

Wow MIT students must have really weird math 8:41 to think that a party that got 17.5% of the vote represents more people than a party that got 36%. I'm sure all those people make over 200 k a year or its some sort of conspiracy!
Don't forget that there's always a substantial bunch of people who vote strategically (Liberal) and not with their conscience (NDP), meaning that the NDP's share is bigger than it appears.
And don't forget 8:41, the CPC is the only alternative for the religious right, ergo they pander to them as well.

While we're talking about intelligence, of which i'm sure you're full of, can we please be pedantic about spelling? It's quail. Sorry, but that's really been bothering me.
They pander to the religious right to attract the vote of the lesser educated / lower income demographics who would otherwise get next to nothing out of the party.
you know what's interesting about all this?
quitting smoking can actually cause the fetus to go into nicotine withdrawl. it's been studied at london health sciences by some of the leading toxicologists. they found some women who tried to quit found that the baby became a lot more aggitated until they started again. kind of like the "crack babies" seen in women who take anti-depressants during pregnancy. granted, it only happens to some women, and it's probably healthier than smoking, but it isn't a totally stupid thing to think.
The NDP has a progresive agenda to improve our society,
Ugh. I hate hate HATE the word "progressive" when used in the political sense.
And don't forget 8:41, the CPC is the only alternative for the religious right, ergo they pander to them as well.
You mean the Conservative Party of Canada, right? Because I don't think the Jesus people would be too fond of that other CPC...
Also, I would point out that, as a member of the strongly non-religious(well, non-Judeo-Christian, anyway) right, the CPC is also the only realistic choice we have...
Exactly 11:48, I vote conservative and I'm an atheist. It's actually pretty common, but why bother fighting with lefties? They just go into defensive mode, lay down on the ground, cover their ears and yell "George Bush world's number one terrorist" over and over.
I'm going to state the obvious here because it badly needs stating. All parties are pluralistic in nature, i.e. they need to build alliances within various disparate groups. The Conservatives have the religious right (mainly but not exclusively rural) and strong fiscal conservatives as their base, but they also need middle class voters, suburban voters, and soft Quebec nationalists to build a majority. What you have described is a tension in any right wing party between possibly secular fiscal conservatives and the religious value voters (this is more evident in the USA).
The NDP has a mix of union workers (auto, public services, etc), intellectuals, envrionmentalists, hardcore socialists (like me), and typically younger voters. Since they haven't formed the government and most of these groups see eye-to-eye on issues, there tends to be less tension in this group, but it can happen (google NDP + the waffle).
The Liberals tend to be the largest tent, which explains their electoral success in part. They usually have Quebec voters (less so now), urban centres (larger now), catholics, immigrants, the maritimes, most of the Ontario suburban voters, and a mix of "business" and "welfare" liberals, that can flux to the Tories or the NDP. The Liberals have kept the coalition together fairly well, and still to a great degree have most of these groups in tact. But no party is a uniform entity, merely it has many elements that try to forge a governing coalition.
Thanks for your time.

LOL! This is an absolutely perfect description of every leftist I've ever met. They are, as a whole, the most useless group of "human beings" on this planet.
As opposed to the actual George Bush government that just brings up September 11 whenever the going gets tough?
Yeah, those terrorists really fucked up when they planned 9/11. All they got out of it was more islamophobia and an excuse for Bush to declare war with any country run by brown people.
Yeah your right 5:26, damn that guy for bringing up a horrific terrorist attack that claimed 2973 innocent lives, he should focus on more important issues. He should talk more about pot! Pots soooooo cool. I bet you and your friends smoked pot last night and it was sweet. Why can't Bush be more like you?
7:41 - If you have ever cracked open the 9/11 report (availale in many book stores), you would be suprised to learned that the commission found that the Bush administration shouldered a significant part of the blame for the attcks. It found that the Bush administartion dropped the ball on tackling the threat of Al Queda and associates. Despite numerous reports, and warning of the possible treat, the Bush administration excerted little effort in preventing it from occuring. While Al Queda is to blame for the horrific attacks, Bush has nothing to gloat about.
Wow MIT students must have really weird math 8:41 to think that a party that got 17.5% of the vote represents more people than a party that got 36%.
What this fine public intellectual fails to state is that exit polls revealed that only a meagre 41% of conservative voters, actually wanted a conservative government. The vast remainder of conservative voters were looking for an alternative option over the Liberals. Therefore only an small percentage of the population actually support the Torys.

The funny / sad part is that many CPC voters actually have an av. houselhold income within range of $200k a year. If you remember, the vast majority of CPC seats come from Alberta, whereby income levels have gone through the roof thanks to the unreal resource sector. Skilled workers, working anywhere around the Edmnton area can easily bring home six figures a year. Therefore a couple could easily bring home $200K a year.
What is funny is that the only ridings outside of the Oil belt that went Blue in the last election are primarily lower income rural areas. The sad part is that these people are captivated by the redneck mentality of the CPC, and are unfortunately unable to see that they stand to gain very little voting tory.
Wow, really I mean it's interesting to know that it was entirely on them, being in power for what 8:15, around 9 months or so? Too bad Clinton wasn't there, if only he had those extra 9 months to put the puzzle together! Being the fool that I am who has never looked into this at all, I thought that the report mainly placed the blame on the FBI and CIA. I guess it isn't their job to combat terrorism though, the president should be on the case himself.
Why are you people all so obsessed with America? Bush and Clinton were never your leaders, people!
8:32 correct me if I'm wriong but the conservatives recieved 123 seats in the last election. Now Alberta only has 28 seats, so we come back to this math issue again. How exactly does 28 make up the vast majority of 123? Do the other 95 seats not count?
As a Poli-Sci nerd, I too have actually read the 9/11 report. What 8:33 possibly did not know is that it is in fact one of the President's roles to take steps to protect the country from terrorist attacks. After all the President has total control over all government resources, including counter terrorism and the military. Had key agencies not felt there was a significant threat, they never would have produced a number of breifings (as presented to the commission) that Bush apparently did not act on, and admits in his testimony that he did not remember every having read.
WTF is with the attack of the Neo-Cons in this thread. What is the deal with all the bickering between them and the lefties. Why can't we all learn to just get along?

Hhahaah some crybaby moderate / leftie, who can't handle any sort of debate, otherwise it upsets them...
The bottom line of this thread is that: if your white-trash, teenage 16 year old pregnancy case mother smoked while pregnant, you might be a redneck(who would vote for Bush).
I hate ghetto people. We should wipe them out... all of them.
Don't worry... once the elite HBAs of the RICHARD IVEY SCHOOL OF BUSINESS enter politics, they will take control, end the bickering and lead us all to a prosperous future!

It's one thing to bring it up. It's another to blame terrorism, etc, for things that go wrong that actually have nothing to do with it, or use it to distract people from the falling dollar, changes to bankruptcy laws that make it even harder to get necessary medical procedures (and more than 3000 people die because of inaccessible medical procedures), dying because FEMA thinks they have time to play with when your city goes under mob rule after a storm...
You could probably argue that it's morally outrageous to exploit the deaths of thousands to serve propaganda purposes, but I bet you'll just call me a commie for (oh my god!) having an opinion not fed to me by CNN. (ps - the commie name calling? so old. there's lots of conservatives on here posting actual arguments. try it.)

I will never get along with a leftist. They are far too dangerous to our society.
1:39 I'm the person who posted that, and I'm not calling anyone a commie...thats another dude
George Bush hates black people. It's true I heard it on TV. Maybe Kramer is a big GWB fan....
Commies are better at sex. I fucked a Tory once and she was terrible!
Che Guevara was fucking sexy.
hhmmmmm maybe CNN does stand for the Conservative News Network. Otherwise Ted Turner is kidding himself.
George Bush hates black people. It's true I heard it on TV. Maybe Kramer is a big GWB fan....
While that maybe true, at the same time he loves white[trash] people. Maybe Kevin Federline is also a big GWB fan.

At least we care about humans and don't psay shit like "We will recommend to our government not to intervene as the risks are high and all that is here are humans." --> group of bureaucrats referring to the Rwandan genocide
psay = say
^funny...it seems to me that leftists (liberals and Democrats) were in power when the Rwandan genocide happened...

Africa is not our business. They didn't want us before, they can fend for themselves now. I don't see anything wrong with the comment you quote.
By that do you mean because they didn't want their countries run by racist white governments, they should have no business asking Western powers for help?
because they didn't want their countries run by racist white governments, they should have no business asking [racist white governments] for help?
Yep, pretty much. Nothing Western countries can do is going to solve the problems of Africa. If we went in with a complete plan for overhauling the most fucked-up of their countries... that'd be neocolonialism (which we all know to be a non-starter). And as to just giving them money with no strings attached? Sorry, if I'm going to throw my money away for nothing tangible, I'd prefer to at least get to set it on fire myself.
As you pointed out, 12:17, no Western country has clean hands when it comes to Africa. Whatever we do, we're going to get tarred as the bad guy for it. Pardon me for not rushing to cash in on that opportunity.
Seriously, do you think the international community would support toppling a dictator like Mugabe or intervening in Darfur? (Maybe for the first 90 minutes, right up until the first pictures of white soldiers killing poor black people start showing up on CNN.) How'd the USA fare in Mogadishu again? (Hint: not well.) So, that being the case, care to explain to me why the Americans (or anyone, in fact) should willing choose to jump headfirst into a similar debacle?
This only goes to confirm the fact that George Bush only cares about white people. If he doesn't care the least bit about black people in his own country - who are able to vote against him - why should he care about black people elsewhere?
^yeah, because since Kanye West said "George Bush doesn't care about black people", it's clearly true.
BTW, Bush has actually been pushing harder than any other major world leader for intervention in Darfur...it's the Africans that don't want it (something about neo-colonialism...)
8:29 - Thank you for proving that you don't have to belong to MENSA to sympathize agree with the GOP
^ AND agree
The funny thing is that as horrible a president as Bush has been, they will still name shit in honour of him.I can't wait for them to use the USS George W. Bush to wage war on China in 2040.
It is a shame that they don't name Aircraft carriers after famous Vice Presidents. After all, other country would tremble at the sight of the USS Richard Cheney off their coastline.
It is unlkely that other countries are going to "tremble at the sight of the USS Richard Cheney" because they know that the ship's cruise missiles are going to malfunction and accidently nail a US Destroyer.
^^^ Yeah, the unfortunately named USS Looked Like a Quail to Me.
^ Where have you people been? I missed you.
It should be obvious that when you shoot at anything that moves, you may not be shooting a quail - could be someone's dog, a bald eagle, or a 78-year-old man. People who are stupid and/or blind should not have this American "right" to bear arms.
I can't wait for them to use the USS George W. Bush to wage war on China in 2040.
Unfortunately, direct conflict between the US and the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (i.e. China, "Russia", and other "former" Soviet states) is very likely to happen well before 2040. Also, it is highly unlikely that the US will have much of a chance.
1:52 you make a good point. There is little chance of the United States taking on an over populated quasi-communist state, with the US military in its current state of disrepair.
The only solution is to frighten the bejesus out of rogue states by: reinstating the draft, putting the sac bombers back in the air, and voting for some unstable old guy to lead the crusade. Might I recommend either George W. Bush for 2008 (he has only been elected once) or Ronald Reagan Jr.(he maybe gay, but that name will never lose its cache).
If Ron Reagan got elected to office, the US's new stance on terrorism will be "stop or we will sodemize you"
9:35 - That would tie the military down because the second the US launches that policy, Vatican city would try to terrorize the United States, in order to get the anal action the state full of closeted gays secretly crave.
What is the deal with all these closet-case queers, trying to compensate by being homophobes. For example Ted Haggard, Mark Foley, and - now after reading the news about parliament setting a date for the same sex marriage vote - ?Stephen Harper?. It is almost comical how these queers over compensate in everyway
11:36,
You are a fag.
8:58,
Might I recommend either George W. Bush for 2008 (he has only been elected once) or Ronald Reagan Jr.(he maybe gay, but that name will never lose its cache).
Or how about GB Sr.? I would love to see him get another shot...
11:36 - You are right about Stephen Harper being apotential closet case. During his campaign he tried to trot out his family for the veiw of the public as frequently as he could. At the time I did not think anything of it but in hindsight(no pun intended) he seemed to be making a big deal out of putting an end to gay marriage.
Hahaaha so true. Has anyone else noticed that it seems like Harper is wearing makeup? At least some lipstick perhaps? If your man uses makeup, he is probably already seeing another guy.
Might I recommend either George W. Bush for 2008 (he has only been elected once) or Ronald Reagan Jr.(he maybe gay, but that name will never lose its cache).
What the republican party needs is some young blood to re-energize the party, and better represent conservative voters. When I think, younger, currently under utilized talent, I immeadiately think Kid Rock or Kevin Federline. These two rednecks are both recent divorcees and mpart the mentality of a republican.
^^^^This has been one of the best threads in months!!!
What would hilarious, would be for Dick Cheney to team up with (former VP) Dan Quail. Who could refrain from laughing everytime they see a Cheney-Quail sign???
What the republican party needs is some young blood to re-energize the party, and better represent conservative voters.
What the Republican Party needs is its own "Reichstag fire". On that note, I suggest we burn Nancy Pelosi. She really pisses me off.
