		<description>GWR it is a hate crime to disagree with a leftist, what is wrong with you??  We want you around abit longer Mister!!  

I will agree with your sentiment about us &#039;right wing whiners&#039; tho.  How many restrictions have been put on the Christians, even hate crimes legislation aimed towards them, and now 40 years later after the 1st attacks, the Peoples of the Christian Church are fighting back and we are called whiners.  Bravo!!

As far as being part of the Seminole nation always a  claim made by a victim mentality, it really has lost it&#039;s ability to move people. On my Mother&#039;s side I am part Cherokee, on my Father&#039;s side I am part Sauk-Fox, a great deal of the population of this country has Native blood coursing thru their veins, and don&#039;t even know it. So my words actually have more meaning than anyone elses, I am representing 2 Native nations.  

It will be interesting to see what the IRS does with all of these, I mean both of these &quot;Protestors&quot;.  If they get away with it, I am most certainly going to stop paying for entitlements that have done nothing for me.  Hell if enough of us stop paying for this crutch, we might get the reforms we have asked for and some tax relief over these extremely wasteful Government entitlements.  - Lorica</description>

		<description>Oh, where to begin with this one...

With rights come responsibilities.  The left, including MB, is very big on demanding their &quot;rights&quot;, but hide in the tall grass when the time comes to shoulder their responsibilities.

Fortunately for MB, there are enough Americans who do understand the need to protect our freedoms, so you can continue to cower while a few hundred thousand brave men and women, including people like our friend NC Cop, do their part to protect your miserable, worthless hide from future homicide bombers and head-choppers.

&lt;blockquote&gt;As for leaving America, my Seminole ancestors have been here for upwards of 300 generations. How long have yours?
&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Ah, the ancestry card.  Don&#039;t try to play it here.  It won&#039;t wash.  I don&#039;t care what your ancestors did, or how long they were here.  You live in America, in the year 2007.  One &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.nightscribe.com/Military/alfred_rascon_moh.htm&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Alfred Rascon &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;- who wasn&#039;t even a citizen yet when he won the Medal of Honor - is worth more than a boatload of whimpering leftists who would trample either other to be first in line for America&#039;s benefits but can&#039;t be bothered to serve her.

If you still think the Seminole blood gives you a pass on defending America, consider this, from the link referenced above:

&lt;blockquote&gt;Being an American has nothing to do with the place of your birth, the color of your skin, the language of your parents, or the way you worship God . . . it comes straight from the heart.

&lt;em&gt;Bill Clinton, 2/8/2000&lt;/em&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;

(Yeah, I know, Clinton&#039;s as bad as any of them - but in this case he at least got the words right.)

So now we know where MB&#039;s heart is.

Then there&#039;s this:

&lt;blockquote&gt;All I hear from right-wingers is whining.
&lt;/blockquote&gt;

As, for example, what?  Got any instances?  No?  I thought not.

Actually, Dana&#039;s description of the &quot;radical Democrat&quot; cuts right to the core of the immaturity of the hard left.  You don&#039;t see conservatives making fools of themselves by prancing around in the streets in giant papier-mache heads - only the immature left.  You don&#039;t see conservatives throwing tantrums like two-year olds when someone with another viewpoint speaks - only the immature left.</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;Uhhh, the Lost Kos diarist described himself as a &quot;radical Democrat&quot; which almost certainly means that he doesn&#039;t have a real job, and is living either on some sort of welfare or still with his parents. Since he only owes 11Â¢ in taxes, it ain&#039;t much of a statement.&lt;/i&gt;

I&#039;m 60. I&#039;ve worked part-time since I was 14, and full-time since I was 21 except for the 13 months I spent in prison for refusing to be drafted for Vietnam. 

As for leaving America, my Seminole ancestors have been here for upwards of 300 generations. How long have yours? 

And, &lt;b&gt;Kevin&lt;/b&gt;, if you&#039;re willing to go to jail or accept the other likely punishments for your refusal to pay part or all of your taxes, have at it. I&#039;m willing to accept the penalties for my civil disobedience. All I hear from right-wingers is whining.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;We refuse for the foreseeable future to surrender the portion of our taxes that pays for U.S. imperialism and the militarization which backs it up.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

No doubt this person also refused to pay for the occupation of Bosnia under President Clinton.  I mean, considering that Clinton had no declaration of war, not to mention no Congressional authority, like Bush had.  As far as I can tell, we&#039;re still &quot;occupying&quot; Bosnia, aren&#039;t we?

Come to think of it, we&#039;re also occupying Japan, Germany, Italy, South Korea, etc. etc.  

These people really need to get a life.</description>

		<description>I&#039;ve never been a &quot;love it or leave it&quot; type, but why are guys like that still here?  America has never been a decent nation or done anything for other than evil purpose, in their perspective.  And it&#039;s never going to be the country they want it to be, however much they stamp their little feet and clench their little fists and hold their breath until they turn blue.

They&#039;re never going to like living here, so what keeps them?  I mean, other than the secret knowledge that they&#039;re self aggrandizing hysterical drama queens?

Go on, guys, split!  Pick a country you like and go there.</description>

		<description>&lt;strong&gt;Daily Kos Admits That Casualty Rates in Iraq are F&lt;/strong&gt;

I did...good, just making sure everyone understands that those that are there and have been since before the surge and since it began, are quite adamant that the surge has allowed for the majority of progress we have been seeing.</description>

		<description>Amazing amount of head pudding in the comment section as well. Case in point:

&lt;blockquote&gt;I depend on Daily Kos and especiallly writers like you to provide this important perspective on the news.  I now instinctually don&#039;t trust the MSM, but it really helps to have accurate information to know why!  &lt;/blockquote&gt;

I have to go shower now. What a bunch of imbeciles, right down to the last sheep!</description>
