Only in American can a black man and a gay Jew (Barney Franks) be compared to Nazis.

What sickens me is the comparisons of Obama to Stalin, and his government to the USSR. Seriously, what Obama is doing now is NOTHING FUCKING LIKE what Stalin did in the USSR. He murdered MILLIONS of people because of his own paranoia and power-tripping, and even COMPARING Obama's healthcare bill to that is an insult to every single person who ever suffered under REAL Communism, INCLUDING some of my ancestors.

I think you mean totalitarian communism, which is quite different than pure communism. Real communism has never been attempted at a national level, and is usually limitted to small communities.

I've seen that "Abolish [the] Federal Government" one before. Do these idiots realize what would happen if that were to occur? That the historical Patriots they so revere fought tooth and nail to make sure that the States clove together rather than apart? If the Federal Government were to be abolished, we would wind up with 51 tiny little independent nations (counting Puerto Rico but not DC, which would instantaneously be swallowed up by Maryland anyway). None of these new nations would be self sufficient in all of the necessary areas: food production, energy, defense, natural resources, manufacturing, water, etc. Either new grouping would quickly arise (most likely geographically: New England, the Southeast, the Southwest, the West Coast, the Great Lakes region, etc.) or all of these new nations would quickly devolve to irrelevancy. Instead of a "United States of America," we would have 51 nations the equivalent of Estonia or Belgium. So much for American world dominance. Texas would likely be buried beneath a flood of Hispanic immigrants and would react by violently closing the border....sparking an inevitable armed conflict with Mexico that, without Federal backup, the rednecks who started it wouldn't be able to finish. Bye-bye Texas, say hello to "Tay-has." Alaska? Third-world status begging for aid from Canada inside six months. So what do you all think would happen to the rest of the nation? Michigan joins Canada...srsly, fuck this noise

Canada will unleash it's hidden arsenal and take over the former states piecemeal, forming a Commonwealth of Canada that controls the entirity of North America, and from that springboard, will eventually conquer the entire world in the name homosexual liberal evolution XP.

"We the people are the government" "Abolish Federal Government"
Therefore, abolish the people?

What the hell does that have to do with anything? And how old is that kid, ten? Dose he even remember 9/11? Does he know how insulting that sign could be to the people who lost loved ones that day?

There's no part of that statement I don't like. Finally we would get health care and gay marriage. And I hear some people like Beaver.

Yeah, but would we really want the national sport to be hockey rather than baseball/football/basketball?

My only issue is having to learn pseudo french and being polite.
