    Re: Mitt Romneys Top 3 Donors Are Banks

    I new banks were among his top donors but all of the top 3?! Also I love Ron Paul's comment on his top 3.

    I may not agree with everything Ron Paul says, but he's a hell of a lot better than the other Republicans, and better than Obama, too. He's the only Republican I'd ever even think about voting for, and if he doesn't win the nomination I'll be voting for Barack Obama.

    You need to wake up too!

    Obama is no different than Romney. Romney wrote Obama care and is basically a white Obama.

    The same people contribute to Obama.

    I KNOW THAT DUMMY. I know he get's lots of donations from banks, he's even stacked his economic advising positions with former bankers. His new chief of staff, Jack Lew, is a former banker (I believe from CitiGroup).

    I always tell people if they vote for Romney they may as well just vote for Obama. The ONLY reason I prefer Obama to Romney (and everyone BESIDES RON PAUL) is I agree with him more on social issues than his republican counterparts. THIS DOES NOT MEAN THAT I LOVE OBAMA. I see Obama as a dismal failure and a false progressive. Nearly everything he's done has been for big business. Even his "historic healthcare reform" bill was nothing but a giveaway to the health insurance industry.

    Don't count me among the Barack Obama fanboy crowd. If I end up voting for him it will be because I feel he is the lesser of two evils, or I may just vote for Rocky Anderson even though he has no chance.

    Cool. I would rather write in for Paul though. It gives more visibility to people being awake.

    I agree, he's like the lesser of all the evils. Which is sad, really. But what can you do?

    The more and more I hear about stuff like this, the more pessimistic and angry I get about living here. Some of us are awake...and feel helpless.

    It's SHITE being Scottish! We're the lowest of the low. The scum of the fucking Earth! The most wretched, miserable, servile, pathetic trash that was ever shat into civilization. Some hate the English. I don't. They're just wankers. We, on the other hand, are COLONIZED by wankers. Can't even find a decent culture to be colonized BY. We're ruled by effete assholes. It's a SHITE state of affairs to be in, Tommy, and ALL the fresh air in the world won't make any fucking difference!

    It's not just that he's in bed with them, it's that he's doing all sorts of unspeakable acts of eroticism to them.

    There is a stand-up comedian, his name escapes me, who said something to the effect that, politicians, like NASCAR drivers, should be required to wear jumpsuits advertising their sponsors.

    Mom: (Attempts to brush Maud's hair with her hands) Listen, I want that long face gone, Mister. You know the drill.
    Maud: Yes mom. I'll get the handsaw and tomahawk from the shed.
    Mom: Don't forget to set the woodchipper up in the back yard. Is the body already in the bathtub?
    Maud: Not yet, still in the trunk. I used that plastic wrap to minimise forensics like you taught me.
    Mom: Good boy. Anyway, who'd you finish off this time?
    Maud: Steve.
    Mom: Not that Steve from down at the hardware store...
    Maud: No, not THAT Steve. You know, that cop Steve who's always taking our pot and smoking it himself.
    Mom: Well I'll be! You've sure got us in a pickle this time!
    Maud: I got his gun, cuffs and radio and threw them off the bridge on the way home. Fingers are removed but the teeth are still in there.
    Mom: Well that's a start, I guess. Now get out to that shed - there's work to be done! Here - take a cookie. I've made a little monkey face out of M&M's just the way you like it.
    Maud: Can I have a Dr. Pepper, too?
    Mom: Don't push it.
