A plane is going to crash. On board there are four people: Barack Obama, Nancy Pelosi, George W Bush, and a young schoolgirl. But there are only three parachutes. Obama grabs the first chute and says "I'm Barack Obama the president, the world needs me!", and jumps out. Then Nancy grabs the next chute: "The world still needs there first women speaker!", and she jumps. Then Bush looks at the little girl and says "I've already served as president and lived a full life. The world doesn't need me. Go ahead and take the last chute." But then the girl says "Thats okay, you don't need to do that. Nancy Pelosi took my backpack."

Bernie Sanders. Anyone who can give this speech would be awesome.

Or Colbert. I just hope I don't have to choose one.

Do not believe in anything simply because you have heard it. Do not believe in anything simply because it is spoken and rumored by many. Do not believe in anything simply because it is found written in your religious books. Do not believe in anything merely on the authority of your teachers and elders. Do not believe in traditions because they have been handed down for many generations.
But, after observation and analysis, when you find that anything agrees wih reason and is conducive to the good and benefit of one and all, then accept it and live up to it.

The idea is if Palin gets into presidential office then the american people will overthrow the government shortly after out of necessity.

I support this sentiment.

But only with Stewart as his VP.

She isn't stupid, I mean she manages to convince people to pay her millions of dollars to spout the Republican Party Talking Points. I'd say she's ignorant though, willfully ignorant, and that's just sad.

Why would anyone vote in another Bush after the horrible job the last one did? Hel the father only served one term. I mean how many times do you have to get burned before you learn?



I know, right? I mean why would I ever vote for another black person again considering how shitty of a job this one is doing? Oh wait, that doesn't seem fair.
