More Shit You Will Never Read About In any of those 144-point font emails...
... you get from Crazy Uncle Liberty.
...it is ideologically and psychologically impossible for Conservatives to admit that the liquidation of the American Middle Class and the plight of the American poor is due to anything but their laziness and moral deficiency
...
Just as it is ideologically and psychologically impossible for Conservatives to admit that racism exists and is used to grease the gears of their movement.
Just as it is ideologically and psychologically impossible for Conservatives to admit that climate change is real, just as it is ideologically and psychologically impossible for Conservatives to admit that widespread voter suppression is key to their hold on power
Just as it is ideologically and psychologically impossible for Conservatives to admit that history began before January 2009.
...
Just as it is ideologically and psychologically impossible for Conservatives to admit that this list barely scratches the surface of their vast and utter failure as competent citizens.
We will never be rid of Conservatism, but like carbon in the atmosphere, if we act aggressively, we can still mitigate the worst of the long term damage. And the first, important step in that direction is to admit that Conservatism really exists and is really a problem.
Which means the second important step in that direction is to drive from the public stage people who make a living pretending that Conservatism isn't really a serious problem (denialism), or who "teach the controversy" by pretending that it no worse than Liberalism (Both Sides!).

sworn in in 2008, therefore he is responsible for everything that happened in 2008. 
Fugelsang had it out with one of them on Stephanie Miller show the other day. All the caller kept saying was "Yer an idiot!1!11" when it was pointed out to him that Obama took over in 2009. I think it was regarding troop withdrawal from Iraq and the status of forces agreement bush signed.
