[210daved1]

gop has no platform to run on so they have to resort to tactics like this. low life scum

[210daved1]

bush did have something to do with 911.. wake up and look at the evidence...blinded by your party affiliation

[210daved1]

showing respect for others isn`t a republican strong point. in fact i cannot remember the last time i saw them showing respect for anyone

[poleske]

Voltaire you idiots!

[QueenTox]

Voltaire, not Abraham Lincoln. Moron.

[JasonCIAHudson]

Voltaire said that you Democratic idiot.

[j364weintraub]

this guy is an idiot

[realroadrunner69]

wow why would u bow to the jap...i guess he forgot what they did to us in 1941

[ThaValuzi]

@realroadrunner69 What they did? did you forget what you did to them ? and stop living in the past you idiot cuz if I bring up everything that the US did to other nations (Indians, Africans, etc.) and races then you might just notice how stupid your comment is.

[starkweather444]

Abe Lincoln, French Philosopher... same thing.

[George91280]

Isnt there film of Nixon, PRESIDENT RICHARD MILHAUS NIXON bowing to Japanese Emperor Hirohito? The same Emperor who ordered the Attack on Pearl Harbor. Who gave concent to the murder of millions of Chinese civilians? The Murder of thousands of Allied POWs? BTW, I am a liberal, but I think Nixon was a great President!

[BlackRepublican2010]

Democrats don't believe in black folks so they create a welfare state because God knows, liberals know what is best for you! Republicans trust in black folks to achieve their hopes & dreams, & to be judged on their accomplishments & "content of their character" (MLK). Vote Republican!

[MagnesDrachen13]

@BlackRepublican2010 Republicans believe they can EXPLOIT all people, regardless of race, creed, or color. The only color that matters to Republican politicians is GREEN, the color of the almighty dollar. Deregulate, no reform, no minimum wage, tax breaks for corporations, all the while preaching the "evils" of helping those who need it. Who needs help when there's all these people to exploit for profit? Think about that.

[MetalDetroit]

@MagnesDrachen13 take an economics course. Tax increases for corporations and increases in the minimum wage only hurt the poor. AGAIN. Corporations DO NOT pay taxes - corporations are TAX COLLECTORS. If you increase taxes on corporations - they are either going to lay people off - or increase prices. customers are the ones who will pay the tax. Do you people not understand the concept of profit margin ?!

[MagnesDrachen13]

@MetalDetroit I know that when you keep giving tax cuts for companies who MOVE JOBS OUT OF AMERICA, you're taking jobs away from Americans and rewarding the companies who do it. Name a major manufacturing corporation that MAKES their products in America. Now name all those who don't....

[MetalDetroit]

@MagnesDrachen13

Blame the unions - As my screen name shows - I 'm from Detroit.

The guys on my hockey team are all union guys who laugh and tell stories about their "nest" at work - where they go and take naps during the day.

The companies CANNOT get rid of these bums. yes it is cheaper to make many products in other countries. Why should someone who sleeps at work make $ 57,000 a year?!

[MagnesDrachen13]

@MetalDetroit Oh yes, the incredibly powerful unions. You know, the ones who get threatened with "do this or we'll move the plant to Mexico" every time negotiations take place. Unions have some power, and they should, but these "all-powerful unions" are a scare tactic used by Republicans to blame the poor for being poor. "We'd keep the factories here, but those dang unions stand up for workers, so.." Why have so many companies left Detroit, because politicians gave them tax breaks to do it.

[MetalDetroit]

@MagnesDrachen13 Companies have left Detroit because it is a liberal haven where it is impossible to do business. besides our corrupt politicians, who steal from minorities and blame the white suburbs - there is a STRONG anti business climate in Detroit. IT IS TAX PILED ON TAX PILED ON TAX . Detroit should be begging companies to relocate to Detroit. Instead - it takes 1 to 2 YEARS to get a business license in the city of DETROIT.

[MagnesDrachen13]

@MetalDetroit Yes, of course, the poor, poor multi-million dollar companies getting bullied by the big bad local government whose trying to make sure they..*gasp* pay taxes to the city. Oh the humanity!

And I'm sure the cheap labor and looser (or no) environmental laws in Mexico, China, etc. have NOTHING to do with the companies moving out of Detroit. Nothing at all, I'm sure.

[MagnesDrachen13]

@MetalDetroit

You can't help the corporation and hurt the worker. Profit margin is fine, but there has to be some limit. If you can make $100million, why do you need to lower employee wages to make $200million? I mean, other than greed. Why does "profit" have to equate with "hurt the worker"? Can't you make money AND pay your workers a living wage? Why can't both sides win? Why does a living wage for workers offend company owners and Republicans so much? That's what I can't understand

[MetalDetroit]

@MagnesDrachen13

Again - no offense - take an economics course..

Any company making $200 million would be a publicly traded company. Who profits from a company making $200 million ?! Teachers - firefighters - police - anyone with a 401K anyone with a retirement account. Take "Big OIL" for example. The teachers unions make huge profits for their union members because their retirement plan contains Exxon stock.....

[MagnesDrachen13]

@MetalDetroit Understood, but at what point can you pay stockholders and still justify shortchanging employees? It's not that they're making profits, that's good, it's when a company screws over employees just to make that profit. It's ok to make money, but it's not ok to hurt loyal employees to do it.

[MetalDetroit]

@MagnesDrachen13 You don't know shit about Detroit - so don't pretend to. Corporations around here have given millions and millions of dollars to help fix the city. The Democrat politicians have NO VESTED interest in fixing the city. There are scheduled meetings and planning commissions on how to improve the city sponsored by local businesses and the democrats don't even show up!

[MagnesDrachen13]

@MetalDetroit Yes, because I'm sure Democrats want to destroy further. I'm sure that's their goal, after all, they're not Republicans, so they must be evil socialists, right?

[Dieenejeweetwel]

i hate republicans(sorry if i misspelled it im not american) talking about the american race THERE AIN'T NO AMERICAN RACE YOUR RACE IS FROM EUROPE pilgrims remember?

[Ivanntu]

For the first time, I agree with Cheney. Obama shouldn't apologise to foreign leaders. Cheney and the other idiots from the Bush administration should.

[curlyfry1106]

it was actually voltaire

[MagnesDrachen13]

Republicans claimed Barack Obama wasn't a US citizen, was friends with terrorists, was lying about his religion, and now calling him everything short of the antichrist. What criticism against Bush could have been that bad? I've criticized Bush, but never that bad. Geesh, tone down the crazy, gop.

[MetalDetroit]

@MagnesDrachen13 Where were you when liberals were calling Bush and Cheney the anti-christ and terrorists? Caling Bush a Nazi? Burning effigies of Bush? claiming Bush was responsible for planning Sept 11. Democrats are just as guilty of this crap.

[MagnesDrachen13]

@MetalDetroit I was right there saying that was wrong too. Don't get me wrong, I don't like George W Bush and co, but I am also no fan of radical hyperbole. Comparing any modern politician to Hitler or calling them the anti-christ is ridiculous, no matter who is on the chopping block. It was wrong when they called Bush in such a manner, but those actions don't excuse their behavior or those currently doing the same to Barack Obama. It's about common sense, no matter what party you're in.

[MetalDetroit]

@MagnesDrachen13 What get me is the false outrage from the left. For 8 years they called Bush a Nazi - now they are offended when people say things about Obama and say we must stand behind the President.

[MagnesDrachen13]

@MetalDetroit Define "they". Because I'm pretty sure no mainstream (Read: not crazy) democrat ever called Bush a Nazi. Crazy people use such hyperbole on a regular basis, but that doesn't reflect the average person. I never called Bush a Nazi, no matter how much I disliked him. It's all about who you consider "they".

[MetalDetroit]

@MagnesDrachen13 go back and watch the anti war rallies. there were thousands of people calling Bush a nazi and carrying Bush is a Nazi signs.

[MagnesDrachen13]

@MetalDetroit AGAIN, it's about WHO said this. Was it Barack Obama, John Kerry, John Edwards, Barney Frank, or Nancy Pelosi saying this kind of rhetoric? NO, it's was the random loons who take everything too far, just like the crazies in the Tea Party who make everyone else look bad. It's about CONTEXT.

[MagnesDrachen13]

@MetalDetroit Plus it's always wise to distinguish between the mainstream party and the lunatic fringe. Did some call George W Bush the anti-christ? Yes. Were those people the elected officials of the Democratic party? No. Look at who is levying such accusations against Obama, elected officials in the mainstream republican party. BIG difference. A crazy man will make crazy claims, but we should all expect more from those who claim to be legit.

[cano21]

That was a funny ass billboard though.

[Pensfan8726]

Why are they listening to Dick Cheney? The dumbfuck who can't handle a gun right?

[sedicenobufalo]

everyone stfu

[PhyckYiu]

So much hate for nothing.

[Hazmat347]

Why do they call this John Feehery guy a Republican strategist. Strategist bring in facts to back up their claim. Republicans don't. I wonder.

[kliff215]

i'm embarrased as a white person

[xsykgaffelx]

2:37-2:51 how do thise people get in to the white house !... that country is fucccccccccccccccccccccccccccc­cD up ! seriously !

[witchwild]

The Republican Party is now breathing its dying breath. The fringe nuts are slowly but surely destroying the good upright name, & rational principles, of the GOP.

[chewbaca1989]

Some Americans have a problem with Obama and they see the Birther issue as a Constitutional issue.

[enemigosocultos]

Does he have tobacco in his mouth? I believe he does! Disgusting!

[TenRoc382k9]

i dont beleave this guy paid for this out of pocket i think the tea party paid for it cause ed is right they say the same thing down to the t

[ThatKrazygirlie]

Ed needs to use text when using straight up audio. Couldn't hear what Cheney was saying. :(

[dealornodealmofo]

"Could be your neighbour" -

No Ed, if that was my neighbour, I wouldn't be on the internet right now, I'd be taking a massive dump on his lawn.

[mintvagoo]

This guys a real winner. When the Conservative movement is headlined by Sarah Palin-- nothing these kooks do or say surprises me.

Ignorance is Right-Wing Erotica.

[SubmarinerAndroid]

Ignorance is comfort food for Palin-era Republicans.

Or a warm blanket. It just makes them feel better.
