victory trip

what they should do with their money - or at least the tanned woman is.

She was frantic and called her financial advisor wondering if she should sell all of her stocks..........after watching Neil Cavuto.

The financial advisor told her not to - thankfully.

I swear to God, the fear that is propagated from Fox News on older people is terrible. The 60-65% of seniors in this country that vote Republican, watch Fox News, etc. is basically a case of brainwashing with fear and ignorance. It is very sad.

she said she was so upset about the "death" tax and how that was going to eat up all of the money he left her. when i pointed out that didn't kick in until the millions of dollars she was floored. she had no idea that the several tens of thousands she got would be tax free - since she only listens to right wing info. sources.

I have noticed the same thing with what Fox reports when it comes to taxes. For example, they may mention that President Obama wants to raise taxes, but they conveniently leave out that it is for people who make six figures, however, many of their viewers think it will affect them, when in actuality, a majority of Fox viewers do not make more than $200,000.

----------------------------------
Susan from Princeton granted that the Republican Party is “lily white and it’s a problem and it is messaging and Mitt Romney screwed up royally.”

But Ms. O’Sullivan again took umbrage. As everyone went silent, she recalled a conference she attended in Australia in which a liberal nun (who “didn’t even have the decency to wear a habit”) criticized America for its “inner-city racism.” Offended, Ms. O’Sullivan recounted what she wished she’d said to this nun:

“Pardon me, madam, but I have been in your country of Australia for ten days and the only Aborigines I’ve seen have been drunk on the street, and at least if we were in my country they would be serving the drinks at this conference!”

Ms. O’Sullivan then warned against watering down the purity of the conservative agenda to placate minorities or, as she put it, rather succinctly, “the bastardization of the product.”

they didn't become republicans because they wanted to hang out with a bunch of minority folks. Heaven forbid.

Happy Holidays

they are still firmly in the bubble of the perpendicular universe for everything else.

NO clue that they are disastrously wrong about pretty much everything.

...cruising aboard the Nieuw Amsterdam? WTF? That sounds like a fancy French socialist name, or something.

Why do Republicans HATE good old-fashioned American boats? American boats not good enough for them? What is wrong with these people?

Some folKs are claiming that the doCumenTarY phOtO below was snapped during an occult Republican Black Ops ritual held on the shuFFleboarD courT of the Niew Amersterdam:

Happy Holidays !!

That little, imaginary demon in your head sent him, lady. Seek professional help. And, take all your nutbag shipmates with you.

They remind me of WilLIARd's 47% ('I thought we were speaking in private' comments)

I love how people can't decide which one. It doesn't make them look ignorant at all.

These are the last three paragraphs:

On the leeward side of the Nieuw ­Amsterdam, John Yoo stood next to his mother, Sook Hee Yoo, a small, elegant Korean woman in black-framed glasses. She described herself as nonpolitical, an objective observer. And she had a diagnosis.

“To protect the ego, you have a defense mechanism: denial and projection,” she told me as her son leaned in to hear over the party din. “You deny your problem, saying it’s your fault and not mine. Instead of projection, blaming other people, we have to think of a positive solution. But I didn’t hear that yet.”

“They are still grieving,” she concluded as her son winced and began to break in, fearing she’d gone too far. “I hope not for more than six months. The grieving process should only be six months. If it goes on for more than six months, it could go into a major depression.”

And that shirtless fella feeding the iguana is Ralph Reed.

I'm lovin' it Happy Holidays!!!

Fuck Yoo was designed for that war criminal!!

not something i expected to read this morning.

When Ralph Reed feeds an iguana, how do you tell them apart?

oh woes us...

As the Republican image stood today, said Lileks, “we’re the stupid people, we’re the yokels, we’re the dumb, we’re the racists, we’re the hicks, we’re against everything that’s hip and cool.”

...there wasn't much need to turn the engines on.

What's up with the far right and the love of oversized cruise ships?

Compensating for something maybe?

Good article......
