Balance
Let's have an example of liberal stupidity just to balance things out:
​
Rep. Hank Johnson, D-Ga., was questioning Admiral Robert Willard about the Navy's plans to relocate 8,000 personnel and their families to Guam. After noting at some length that the island is narrow, Johnson says "My fear is that the whole island will become so overly populated it will tip over and capsize."

Re: Balance
Coyote, there's such a thing as quote mining people while still quote people word for word.
​
The link includes a video, and the silly comment comes well into it.
​
I don't think that is quote mining.
​
Who don't you watch the video and see if you don't agree?
​
Religious belief does not constitute scientific evidence, nor does it convey scientific knowledge.

Re: topic
Taz, because of you I'm abandoning this thread.
​
From your posts it looks like we will only be allowed to poke fun at the silly sayings of those on the right.
