I take no political sides on this forum but this is just funny- Are You a Democrat, Republican or Southern Republican? Here is a little test that will help you decide. Question: How do you tell the difference between Democrats, Republicans And Southern Republicans? The answer can be found by posing the following question: You're walking down a deserted street with your wife and two small children. Suddenly, an Islamic Terrorist with a huge knife comes around the corner, locks eyes with you, screams obscenities, praises Allah, raises the knife, and charges at you. You are carrying a Glock cal .40, and you are an expert shot? You have mere seconds before he reaches you and your family. What do you do? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Democrat's Answer: Well, that's not enough information to answer the question! Does the man look poor or oppressed? Have I ever done anything to him that would inspire him to attack? Could we run away? What does my wife think? What about the kids? Could I possibly swing the gun like a club and knock the knife out of his hand? What does the law say about this situation? Does the Glock have appropriate safety built into it? Why am I carrying a loaded gun anyway, and what kind of message does this send to society and to my children? Is it possible he'd be happy with just killing me? Does he definitely want to kill me, or would he be content just to wound me? If I were to grab his knees and hold on, could my family get away while he was stabbing me? Should I call 9-1-1? Why is this street so deserted? We need to raise taxes, have a paint and weed day and make this happier, healthier street that would discourage such behavior. This is all so confusing! I need to debate this with some friends for few days and try to come to a consensus. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Republican's Answer: BANG! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Southern Republican's Answer: BANG! BANG!

Southern Republicans are clearly better at dealing with imaginary knife-wielding Islamic terrorists on the street. Yet somehow it was a Democrat -- and not a Southern Republican -- that took out the biggest one in Real Life.
Many Americans worked together to get Bin Ladin, not just the one who pulled the trigger. And they all deserve our respect. But let's get real: President Obama had the ultimate responsibility for making it happen. And so Obama deserves credit, even though he did not actually pull the trigger. And by the exact same logic, Bin Laden deserves blame, even though he did not actually fly any planes on 9/11. Bin Laden still had the ultimate responsibility for making it happen, right ?
I don't see it that way. Bin Ladin was obviously an important part of it, sure, but ultimately the ones who made it happen were the suicide hijackers themselves.
I look down on people who look down on people who don't take kindly to people who look down on others.
Follow up question. Why did the chicken cross the road? Answer: because it's Bush's fault and you're a racist.
That is right there with- If a tree falls in the woods and does not make a sound, it is still the mans fault?
