      Conservatives Happier Than Liberals

      Posted by theangryindian from Live Science

      Regardless of marital status, income or church attendance, right-wing individuals reported greater life satisfaction and well-being than left-wingers, the new study found. Conservatives also scored highest on measures of rationalization, which gauge a person's tendency to justify, or explain away, inequalities.

      Crooks and Liars » GOP Candidate Tony Zirkle Wishes Adolf a Happy Birthday

      Posted by theangryindian from Crooks and Liars

      On Sunday, Tony Zirkle, a Republican candidate for Indiana's 2nd District, took time out from saving the economy by shredding vintage Playboys (of course!) so he could attend a 119th birthday celebration for Adolf Hitler. He claims he was only there to talk about his experience as a state's attorney in Indiana, his wacky theories about pornography, and to preach the gospel, so of course his being there had absolutely nothing to do with his segregation plan that would allow blacks to "have six states, so instead of having one half-black senator, well they would have 12."

    WAR IN IRAQ
    Lonely Iraq sat on a wall,
    Lonely Iraq had a great fall.
    All of Bush’s tanks and all of Bush’s men,
    Couldn’t put little Iraq together again.

    Nothing about Barack Obama and whatever religion he may ultimately espouse concerns me as deeply as the unavoidable fact that he is SIMPLY TOO INEXPERIENCED, AT THIS TIME, TO LEAD THIS NATION. Look, people! The Emperor has no clothes! And a turban and traditional garb from ANYWHERE cannot disguise this fact! We haven’t the time, given the current state of affairs (WHICH WILL NOT IMPROVE SIGNIFICANTLY BETWEEN NOW AND NEXT JANUARY, and you might as well accept that), to have any candidate go in for “on the job training”. Idealism and a new broom both be damned, folks … we need a tough President who “knows where the bodies are buried” plus everything there is possible to know about the “inside the Beltway” crowd so that they may be made to shape up. It helps to know the “Dramatis Personae” before the play begins.

    While I plan now to vote for Sen. Clinton, I’m not married to the concept … or to her (that’s Bill, remember?). I’d check the ballot elsewhere if I felt any of these other yo-yos were a sounder choice! Quite simply, they are not. Not at this juncture.

    the xenophobia and overzealous puritanism of many of my fellow texans is only exceeded by their ignorance. but while there is a lot of it, we don’t have exclusive rights to it.

    which proves that racism and xenophobia isn’t a ‘thing of the past’. it’s still here, and it’s merely sublimated. it will be another 300-400 years before it starts to disappear.

    until then,. it’s always ready to come out again.

    ps. GWB was not native-born. one of the nice things about us is that we’re willing to adopt furriners as texan, although it has become noticeably less so lately.

    my apologies.
