1. Ha ha ha

I thought this was going to be about a Beck-type freeper--by using Ghostbusters the authors of the video have shown a much more polished response. Glad to see the general is doing what will win hearts and minds.

2. Patton read,,Rommel,,MacArthur read,,MAO,,Bradley read Mein Kampf

all of them read Das Kapital,,,, where does the problem exist within the Repug right wing???

3. The existing problem is that today's republicans truly are, without a scintilla of doubt,

the dumbest MFers on the planet.

4. "Where does the problem exist within the Repug right wing???"

They're just uncomfortable with people who read.

5. People who read or seek info are less likely to believe what they are told vs

being told what to believe.

7. All truth is in the King James bible

anything else is heresy, leading to sin
