Captain Marvelous you are by far the biggest racist moron that I have ever had the displeasure of reading a post by. Non sense, silly, childish and stupid. I bet that you are one of them stereo typical red neck Republicans that profess to be a Christian, but hates everyone else that is not. Shame on you!
What a ridiculous statement to make regarding the ACLU! Your bigotry is as annoying as your screen name. You're a total waste of space and your trashy posts show you to be a real buffoon, a moron and someone without any education. Thank God for the IGNORE feature on this site. People like you disgust me - UGH!
Keep on sticking the knife in their sides please! I love what your saying!!!

I cant tell you why because that is a another story but protected knowledge an would put people in harms way an cant allow this as I'm connected to the intelligence field .
Re: Your comments about Obama's press conference and who is pulling the strings...Dick Cheney perhaps? LOL
I wonder if you could please send links to the articles that you posted about in the Wall Street Journal and New York Times regarding Northern Bank. I would love to read them and have friends who would also. Heard about this on the radio today but most articles I'm finding do not tell the whole story.

Thanks for helping to stabilize the economy by taking your money out. Did you take any history classes in high school or college? Masses of people pulled their money out of the banks when the market crashed. This is one of the things that led to the great depression.
By the way---you might want to find a new party because the way your party is going it Will implode before the next election.
Republicans will be Republicans, you cant teach old dogs new tricks. Whether you like the man or not he is your President. SUCK IT UP.
Today in San Bernardino,CA a republiscam was arrested for actual voter FRAUD.
