An open letter to the people who hate Obama more than they love America
 

Nothing I enjoy more than a good anti-right winger rant and this is a good one. So since we are posting threads about hate I figured I'd do one too. Now you might argue that by posting this I am showing my own hate for right wingers. And you know what? You would be right. So I sign on to everything in this letter except for the last paragraph where the author says "I don't hate you". On that point he and I disagree. I absolutely hate these fuckers.

Much to agree with Tom and I do agree as I don't hate these people more likely they have my pity. Hatred is corrosive and eats away its container. Or as Carrie Fisher put it "Hating someone os like taking poison and waiting for the other person to die."

Carrie Fisher!

You gotta be shittin me!

Have you gotten a load of what she looks like these days?

She has really gone downhill since her Princess Lea days.

On the other hand I've aged quite well, more along the lines of the way Harrison Ford has, and I'm 9 years older than her.

I just bench pressed 205 and dead lifted 285 at a Senior meet a couple of weeks back.

I'm sticking with what got me here.

I'm glad to see that at least one person here has the ability to drill down to the really important stuff!

John

He was just showing off his capacity for hate.

Dickishness?:cool:

I shocked myself on Saturday by pumping out a 22 mile bicycle ride. That's the most I've done since 2002, when I was still regularly riding metric centuries (100km/62 miles) three/four times a year and training 40 miles every other day.

I turn 50 this Thursday.

The difference then is that, then, I weighed 160 lbs. :rolleyes:

Dave

I used to bike a lot back in the day. I had a couple of 6,000 mile years during my peak. I can still do 20 on occasion if I keep it slow, but mostly I walk these days. I've passed the torch to my daughter. She did her first metric century a few weeks back.

Nothing wrong with a little good clean hate to start the day off right.

Happy early birthday. I remember when my father turned 50 I bought him a card.
On the cover; "Happy Birthday. Don't feel bad, 50 isn't old"
Inside the cover; "...if you're a tree!"

Now I will be 50 in a couple years and I am not sure how amusing that card actually was.

I have no problem with disassociation, but I refuse to hate. It's bad for the soul.

If you say so. :rolleyes:

"Hatred is corrosive and eats away its container."

I will never forget that again. It describes exactly what hatred does. By the way - continual hatred, as a kind of extremely negative stress, supports the outbreak of any sort of cancer, what confirms your great remark Rob.

Tea Party rally?:p

Dave

So Carrie is older and not as svelt as she once was, for that matter neither am I. I recall ome of my last consulting jobs whe I was introduced to the team the leader said 'trees don't live this long.':)

Some people are just too darn perfect. ;)

Did anyone notice what a good job Harrison Ford did playing an old fart in "42?"

Regards,

D-Ray

Oh, Hell yeah! :D

He's actually quite a good actor, something we tend to forget amidst all the "Star Wars" and "Indiana Jones" movies. When he has a chance to show his chops, like in "Regarding Henry" or "The Witness", he's pretty impressive.

John

Not a bad finish carpenter too. He used to work in Laguna Beach down this way.

Harrison Ford was Finnish?:D

Yah sure, you betcha! ;)

It's from eating all that lutefisk! If it don't kill you, you live forever.

That said...as long as the GOP panders to teabag populists, racists, and social and religious bigots, I can't vote for any of them, not even a decent guy like Mark Kirk. Their social platform is a disgrace and they'll get no support from me.

Pretty much most of my problem with them.
