Amusing Bush T-shirt

[Cantousent]

The problem with jokes about american beer and american stupidity is that they're always told by drunken idiots.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

 

That was funny. hehehe.

[Judge Hades]

Well, I for one hate Bushie. Bushie is too god damn religious and lets his religion dictate policy than good solid reason. I rather have a Athiest president than a Christian President.

[Errantry]

I'd rather have a Buddhist president, and see what happens.

 

Bush, I believe, confuses the boundaries of 'religion' and 'government'. His job is not to persuade everyone to get along. It's to force them to.

 

Another thing about Bush - he made it though Yale with a C+ average, didn't he? And became a born-again Christian at age 40, whilst killing over sixty 'felons' proven innocent by DNA testing. Unfortunately, DNA does not exist according to -some- beliefs.

[Kaftan Barlast]

Thats not where the problem is, his only real religion is money.

[Cantousent]

See, here's where the opposition really suffers.

 

After all, is he a religious zealot or a money grubbing religious poseur?

 

Is he an idiot who only passed through Yale with a "C+" or a savvy, shrewd, and evil mastermind who managed to win two elections and increase his parties hold on the legislature in both the mid-term elections and his own re-election? Which cabinet member is the real mastermind? Rove? Card?

 

First of all, I don't know how many of you passed through Yale with better than a C+ average, but I have my doubts that any of you have.

 

Second of all, the most vocal atheist element on these boards appears neither enlightened nor tolerant.

 

Finally, I don't know about the rest of you, but the idea was to tell jokes about the president. It

Eldar -

Good job of getting back on topic! You make Mr. Bush sound like a Sith lord.

See, now I actually find that comment funny. Of course, I have a weird sense of humor. As it stands now, I'm playing KotOR2 (great game, btw) and I can just imagine, instead of a twisted, old crone, I have W telling me not to help people and that struggle will make me grow stronger!

I'm an artist, why would I go to yale?

I'm pretty vocal just not about not being an athiest...

[Conspiracy Theorist]

Politics is a heckuva topic. It's just one of those things where as far as people are concerned, there is no "right" way to go about it other than their way. I am a Christian, and I attend a Christian school. However, I'm constantly at odds with my classmates because I can't stand President Bush. There is something wrong when a President depends on waving the Christian flag to rally his troops in his "crusade on immorality". Can't the guy win on anything else? The sad thing is, I share the same values he does. I've learned however, that you can't force those values on people. Even Jesus didn't do that. People gotta remember though (at least this is what I tell my classmates) that for every anti-bush joke out there, there was an anti-kerry one too. It's all in good fun people, and if you can remember that, and not take it too seriously, politics will be a lot more enjoyable for everyone :D

[Judge Hades]

Well, I am not a CHristian and I despise Christianity. Frankly I have a general distaste for most religions, but Christianity I have particular hate for due to the fact I had the most contact with it. The way I live my life is my business and I don't need buggers harass me on my way to class or force their propaganda in my face while heading to the student union, nor do I need the same buggers knocking on my door.

[Cantousent]

...And yet you attend school, from which you derive your education. The point of any university is to teach, is it not? Do you doubt that many professors have entrenched opinions that they undoubtedly impose upon the students? Do you doubt that some of those opinions are related in no way to the subject at hand?

 

What about Christians who neither pass out "propaganda" nor knock on your door? Would it be better if no Christian knocked on your door? Do you not have any Christian friends? I haven't been to a campus where the folks handing out bibles or religious materials are any more obnoxious than the mass of folks who hand out any other material. Certainly, they are more respectful than the socialists who set up booths every Wednesday where I attend school. ...And, you want to talk about a fantasy, let's talk Socialism.

 

We're in a thread about George W. Bush and you find a Christian who agrees with your position. What do you do? Why, attack Christianity, of course!

[Judge Hades]

As long as Christians do what they do and leave me alone while doing it I have no problems with them. Its the CHristians that bother me that earned my ire.

[Cantousent]

Hades, my point is that you must have some reason you hate Bush other than the fact that he is a Christian. When a Christian agrees with you regarding Bush and cites some of the same reasons you cite, why make the issue one of Christianity in the first place? Who is imposing their view in this thread?

 

Democrats don't want to be associated with the most extreme and unfriendly elements of their own party, and yet many do seem quick to associate the most urbane and reasonable Christian with the most obnoxious elements of Christianity. Nuts, we're are people before we are anything else. That you believe that we are people entirely by chance where I see a guiding hand in our human condition doesn't change the end result... our shared humanity.

[Judge Hades]

Hey, I never said I was rational and I am in a particularly bad mood right now. Yeah, I hate Bush more than being Christian and it wouldn't be an issue if he wasn't flaunting it. I hate Bush for quite a number of reasons but I hate the Federal government even moreso. Frankly I am quite pissed off about everything and everyone.

[Cantousent]

Good grief, Hades, Bush or no Bush, you'll find a good job, I'm sure. I thought you were going submit your screenplay somewhere.

[Judge Hades]

The screenplay was a worthless piece of sh*t, like most things I do.

[Cantousent]

Well, I tell you what really sucked, the drive back from Vegas. I was the only person in my family born there of my generation, and I wouldn't live there again for anything.

 

Sounds like you're going through a rough patch, friend. As for your screenplay, I have only this to say, and it is entirely off topic: hardly anyone finishes a screenplay. It's a lot of writing. If it's not the greatest in the world, then it is certainly a substantial amount of practice.

[Judge Hades]

Well, I am currently coverting that screenplay into a novel. That is most definitely a lot of practice in writing.
