Trashing President Bush and his policies is different than Trashing an entire group of people because of who they are.

Yeah, I remember that time a bunch of liberals burned down a Chick-Fil-A.

No, but I do remember when a bunch of fundies in Dallas orginized a mass burning of Dixie Chicks CD's. And lets not forget that the pastor of that church admitted to illegally downloading their albums of the internet (and thus breaking the "thou shalt not steal" commandment), burning them onto blank CDs, and then burning the blank CDs.

You know, if I were going to overtly intimidate my political opponents into complete silence and acquiescence, using as justification a terrorist atrocity I failed to do anything to prevent despite constant warnings, I would have the common decency not to mention it years later.

...

I'm going to assume that the person who made that knew what he was doing.

And they call Democrats the party of the KKK.

They always know what they're doing, they just enjoy being douchebags about it.

That's right; Mitt Romney is a slave. He's of the oppressed lower class, with no political power.

The image on the right is so obviously clip art. I can't decide whether that makes it sadder or even more hilarious.

Going point by point:
*No, he simply doesn't give Israel carte blanche. If a country we weren't good buddies with pulled half the shit Israel does on a regular basis, we would be talking about maybe invading.

*Gee, I seem to remember the economy tanking when I was still in high school...which was under Bush. I also remember big banks being given bajillions of dollars when I was in high school.

*Gee, I seem to remember Obama encouraging congress to save the auto industry and pass the stimulus. While the actual effectiveness of those two actions is debatable, it did at least try to save/create jobs for regular folks. It's almost like almost tanking the entire world's economy takes some serious time to recover from.

*OK, I don't actually know anything about this.

*Yeah, that was a pretty major fuck-up. Incidentally, the "gunwalking" program that lead to this scandal began in 2006. That does not make the Obama Administration's continuation of it OK, it makes both Bush and Obama fuck-ups on this.

*Obama has deported the shit out of illegal immigrants, so yeah.

*The Right Wing uses this word a lot. I'm not sure if they know what it actually means.

*See, I agree that Obama has a shittier record than I'd hoped on constitutional issues. However, that shitty record specifically comes from his continuation of Bush era policies.

*Because poor people shoulda gotten rich if they didn't want to die of treatable conditions, amiright? [/li][/list]

That's parody, right?  It's from politifake.org and their tagline is "daily doses of political parody," but I would expect an actual political parody site to mock both sides, and they don't seem to.

Please let it be parody...

...I don't know if this is supposed to portray some kind of symbolic evil ritual, be a general symbolic representation of what Dees thinks is going on in the world, or if that's supposed to be some kind of "voodoo globe" they're about to stab.

I really hope its the last one.

I also like that either Skeletor, Doctor Destiny, or Thulsa Doom is a member of the Zionist Conspiracy. Also, Obama seems really "meh" about the proceedings.

The demotivational might be a parody, but the image in the inset seems to be genuine.

In any case, it is a perfect example of Poe’s Law. There is someone out there that believes exactly that.
