Most obnoxious piece of Freeper spin you've ever seen?
Here's mine. . .makes my blood boil when I see it:

"Republicans are dying to protect freedom. . .Democrats are dying to take back Congress."

What the fuck is wrong with these people?

3. Most nauseating thing I ever heard come
out of the mouth of a repuke was

"All Americans should be grateful that George Bush was in charge on 9/11."

There are no words, truly....

6. I have to go along with this one.
How Bush's cowardly and indecisive actions after 9-11 ever translated into "leadership" is a mystery to me.

7. Usually, I can dismiss Ann Coulter, but her most recent vile pissed me off
She also criticized the media for being liberal and Democrats for whining about their rights under the First Amendment.

"They're always accusing us of repressing their speech," she said. "I say let's do it. Let's repress them."

She later added, "Frankly, I'm not a big fan of the First Amendment."

9. Here's the most recent twisted, obnoxious spin I've seen
and shows what a dumbass this guy is...

FYI and the colonel's, the foreign policy of the United States is not made by the military or the bureaucrats. They are there to implement the policy of our elected leaders, in this case the president and vice-president. Simply because you do not agree with that policy, you would have, in effect, a coup d'etat against our elected leaders. So, to put your policies into effect you are prepared to overthrow our government. That's treason. That's what Wilson and his wife did. They concocted a scheme to discredit and undermine our elected leaders. They did this under cover of a stupid law which protects cabals within our military and intelligence agencies. In protecting them you are playing with fire. They are far more likely to turn on you eventually. When a Pinochet arises in this country and kills all of you, you will have only yourselves to blame. You made it possible. You empowered him. You would burn down the Republic in order to 'save' it from the man you hate and turn it over to a true tyrant. That is why many people believe liberalism is a mental disorder. You're all nuts!

This was a response from a Bushbot posted to this article below, which quotes Colonel Wilkerson:

Cheney cabal hijacked US foreign policy’
By Edward Alden in Washington
Published: October 20 2005 00:00 | Last updated: October 20 2005 00:19

Vice-President Dick Cheney and a handful of others had hijacked the government's foreign policy apparatus, deciding in secret to carry out policies that had left the US weaker and more isolated in the world, the top aide to former Secretary of State Colin Powell claimed on Wednesday.

In a scathing attack on the record of President George W. Bush, Colonel Lawrence Wilkerson, chief of staff to Mr Powell until last January, said: “What I saw was a cabal between the vice-president of the United States, Richard Cheney, and the secretary of defense, Donald Rumsfeld, on critical issues that made decisions that the bureaucracy did not know were being made.

11. Since protecting freedom is a hollow phrase, at least Dems have a real
goal.
