Why are Liberals so dang stupid????

Does anyone understand the logic behind having a big government? I deal with this on a regular basis and was wondering if anyone else did as well....

I get people who say something to me everyday when they see me wearing a LU shirt.....especially about who I believe should be the next president...

I say Mccain will win this one b/c the other two candidate are just socialists and people will wake up by November because they do not want to see this country go down anymore than it has....

I get questions about Healthcare, Jobs, the Housing Market, social issues, everything you can imagine....

And to nobody's surprise, I am a jack*** to them

Housing-----I took this from Neal Boortz.....but 1 out of 194 houses are up for foreclosure. That is .5%, yeah one half of a percent, and no more than most years. I wonder why it is being portrayed by the media as this big thing. Well b/c if the economy is in a recession the current party in power never comes into office.

Jobs-----The unions in this country are killing us. We have people that I wouldn't trust flipping burgers making huge sums of money by running a mob. This hurts our economy b/c they rely on the government for power.....Less government-> less unions

Healthcare-----until we have a mcdonald's style healthcare system it will be in a mess. With that being said, John McCain has the best idea......BRING MORE PRIVATE COMPETITION INTO THE MARKET......suck it Obama and Hillary, you two should be imprisoned for what you are trying to do.

After these issues it becomes and attack on my faith and LU, then it gets serious.....

A (some d-----): "Well, when I was your age I felt that way too"

B (me): "really, well when did gettig older mean getting dumber?"

This is a constant thing for me and I hope you guys will get to experience it too. I at one time was nervous, but then I realized they don;t know what they are talking about and are afraid you will embarrass them...

I will post more of my day through the stupid liberal mind

are you still in Lynchburg? I'd say that 90% of my shirts have LU on them and the only time it ever comes up is if I'm eating out and the waiter/waitress is currently going to LU. Your typical day sounds fun.

I live in the Richmond area, 90% of the time when I'm not at work I'm wearing LU gear. The only time I ever get approached is when some old lady says my grand daughter goes there her name is Jane Smith do you know her? Yes ma'am I know all 10,000 students that go there. :roll:

this might help out

7 UVA grads
8 Vtech grads
2 supervisors are LC grads
Boss is a W&L grad

I am the only LU grad, and only a handful are from the Burg, so you might see where I am going

i remember going through this when i was in lynchburg....it didn't happen alot but it did happen..

"durrrr jerry falwell is ruining this place"

"uh, as i'm looking around i see about 70% of your customers are liberty students, its safe to say if there was no jerry there'd be no business"

"well hes trying to take all our freedoms"

" :roll: "


i could deal with those people.....what i also remember was telling everyone in 00 was that dubya was a moron and i didn't think he'd make for a crap of a president (note: i didn't think gore would either) and was barraged with stupid republican comments

in short....each side has its retards...
