“The University of Minnesota has approved co-ed bathrooms. This means the pick up line ‘do you come here often?’ will never die.”
“Apparently political corruption in Arizona is truly a bipartisan thing. In Arizona, the words politician and corrupt are synonymous.”
“In (Wednesday’s) paper was a short piece about proposing to ‘expand work visas for top foreign talent.’ Meanwhile, we have American engineers and nurses working in fast food joints. Why? Because as children they were brought here by parents who are illegal immigrants. Though as American as the rest of us they aren’t allowed to use their skills to benefit our country. It’s time for the Dream Act in some form.”
“When Vladimir Putin learned about our Republicans legislating voter fraud laws in numerous states it brought a tear to his eye, because he didn’t think of it first. His idea was to stuff the ballot box. In the 21st century U-S-of-A, you unstuff the opposition’s ballot box with sleazy legislation.”
“Mitt Romney isn’t a flip-flopper just because half the time he doesn’t mean what he says and the other half he doesn’t say what he means. If he becomes president, Sean Hannity from Fox News could become whitehouse translator for occasions like the State of the Union Address.”
“If Romney’s poll numbers get better and Obama’s get worse, I keep thinking about what the Dems are going to have to do to win this election. I don’t know what they will use as an excuse, but I can see Joe Biden not being on the ticket with Obama. I can see Hillary Clinton taking his place. Call me crazy, but I believe that this administration will do whatever it takes to win.”
“Will Congress wrap up the investigation of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms (ATF) and the Department of Justice (DoJ) involvement in the ‘Fast and Furious’ gun-walking scandal and cover-up before the November elections? Let’s hope so.”
“I picked up my free EVTRIB this morning and noticed a very odd scent coming from the paper, something like dog poop covered in vomit. Low and behold I open the paper right to Jon Beydler’s so-called column and found the source of the stench. It’s a darn shame you let someone with the writing proficiency of a 6-year-old grace your publication.”
“Obama is Forrest Gump. He was there when Roosevelt established Social Security, he was there when Kennedy established the Peace Corps, he was there when Carter established the Department of Energy. He was part of it all. What a loser.”

“It came as no surprise to me to hear about how a teenage Mitt Romney — then comfortably tucked into his exclusive private prep school — marshalled a gang of his buddies to harass a fellow student by forcing him down and cutting his long, blond hair because he didn’t fit in; in fact, the student was presumed to have been ‘a homosexual.’ As famed anti-bullying expert Jodee Blanco once wrote, ‘Bullies never remember, and victims never forget.’”
“Mitt Romney handled this prep school incident very well, showing true leadership qualities by not remembering the incident. Sometimes it becomes necessary to impose your ideology on a non-conformist by force or punishment. Whether its a prep school or the Marines we all know some people can’t handle the truth.”
“If same-sex marriages were treated like same-sex corporate mergers, and could make unlimited campaign contributions, Mitt would would have to flip again. Money always trumps theological convictions.”
“I didn’t know that gay parents are automatically dismissed from being incompetent, immature, and violent like those ‘traditional’ parents that Sunday’s venter suggests. I thought gays always wanted equal rights? Now, this venter suggests that gay parents are better than the ‘traditional’ parents. Being heterosexual or gay does not determine whether that person will be incompetent, immature, and violent. How can someone so incompetent think this way?”
“I have to take great exception to the comments made by Patrick Shepherd in Sunday’s paper. Somehow he thinks gay people feel they need or deserve special rights. Nothing could be more incorrect. Gay people just want the exact same rights as he has. No more, no less. They want to be able to fall in love and marry the person of their choice, to live peacefully in a community without fear of harassment or hostility, to be able to raise children (biological or otherwise), to be able to hold a job without fear of unjust termination, to be able to express their feelings in public without being jeered at, and to share in the same financial benefits of partnership straight couples enjoy. These are not special privileges. This is called equality.”
“When Sheriff Joe’s deputies go on a call where a Mexican suspect has committed a crime and ran from the scene, they need to stop and check an equal amount of white, black and Indian men. This is so the do-gooders can’t say he is profiling. I guess if it walks like a duck and talks like a duck, it doesn’t apply in police work.”
“Liberalism 101. Demonize anyone who doesn’t agree with you, and then blame them for your failures!”
“We are aware of how eagerly the younger set embraces their personal communication devices, sending messages often using both hands. Would you say, then, that they are basically ambitextrous? Just wondering.”

“Come on people, wake up! Get off your cell phones and drive! You think you are driving just as good as you would if you were not texting or talking while driving. Well, you are not! You are distracted and your reaction time is decreased because your eyes are not on the road. You drive under the speed limit because you are distracted, you make stupid moves because you are distracted. There is nothing that cannot wait until you are parked, and that does not mean at a stop light! Nothing in life is so important that you are willing to take your own life or that of another because your BFF texted you and you just had to answer right away, or OMG they might think you are ignoring them! Shut up and drive!”
“We have laws against almost everything except breathing. If Obamacare gets fully implemented they will tell us when to stop breathing. The cost of keeping us old geezers alive will be unaffordable.”
“Our leadership is wise beyond it’s years, so don’t worry about an apocalypse on Dec. 21. The Mayan calander was created by a far left Mayan ideology, the whole civilization colapsed when the far right defunded the calender program.”
“Well Folks, the Obama re-election Campaign has officially started. All of those trips on Air Force One at $180,000 per hour were supposedly related to Mr. Obama’s job as POTUS (or PUTZ as he is know in other quarters). ‘Hope and Change’ were Mr. Obama’s old motto in 2008 but now in 2012 his new Campaign Motto is ‘Fear and Loathing.’ What a difference three years in the White House will do (well at least two days a week in the Oval Office, that is).”
“The media question of the day has been: ‘Have race relations improved during the Obama administration?’ I think not. If anything, they’ve deteriorated. The Obamas have corroborated, to say it with political correctness in ‘their’ terms, ‘It is what it is.’; leopards don’t change their spots.”
“So now Romney has progressed from ‘Of course I would have ordered the Bin Laden hit’ to ‘Of course, Obama followed my advice in saving the auto industry.’ Who would have guessed that his ‘Etch-a-Sketch’ reset would mean that he gets to rewrite history and try to erase the voters’ memories? I would hope that Americans are smart enough to realize that Mitt Romney will say or do anything to be president!”
“I think we can all agree that what is happening in Europe is proof that the economic system Obama wishes for the U.S. is not sustainable.”
“How many of the guns recovered in Mexico originating from the U.S. get there through official U.S. Federal government approved export programs? Example, guns sold to the Mexican army and subsequently stolen, or supplied by the ATF via programs like ‘Fast and Furious’. Also, why is Obama threatening to veto a part of the congressional budget because it bans Fast and Furious type programs? Is he looking to reinstate exporting weapons to drug cartels?”
