4. Seriously
I don't know why they put up with it — unless they're stuck in 1996 with technology like they are with the Clenis.

27. I give to DU for the same reason everyone else does. They threaten you.
If you don't give you don't get a heart or and easter flower or a snow cone. They prey on my insecurities.

But you know I still love them......:-)

18. To be fair, they don't have near the resources of DU.
After all, DU is funded with millions donated by George Soros, Oprah Winfrey, and Canada. Together with the combined technological powers of the pornography industry, DU has naturally been intelligently designed as poisoned forbidden fruit to tempt the troo believers.

:rofl:

49. I guess they don't mind pissing their money down the drain...
...so long as those dirty pinko commie tax-n-spend libruls in the guvment don't get it.

:eyes:

And you're right, that is only ugly f*cking website! Whenever I venture over there and read one of their threads, it's next to impossible to tell who is responding to whom. It seems like some jumbled incoherent rambling conversation, but then again, maybe that's how their minds process things. :spank:

3. $70,000 for three months... Bullshit.
Hosting that shit wouldn't even come close to costing that much. Maybe $500 per month. And that is a really generous estimate. Someone found a nice way to earn a nice living while doing nothing. And the tardbarn is cool with it.

7. The Tards Love Rim Job
I venture over to that cess pit of insanity from time to time and whenever Rim Job posts one of his loopy rants, it seems that every drooling member of FR slavishly agrees with him without question. Small wonder that they would donate that much to their evil overlord.

20. Geez, 1994 called. They want their BB technology back!
$70,000 bucks gets you the 1997 edition of HTML for Dummies?

That site is the cutaneous tag of the internet. And if you look at the link, one of the characteristics is this:

Cutaneous tags are usually painless and do not grow or change.

their "Dollar-a-day" club requires a $360 yearly donation. Which 5 days are they leaving out? (Of course MLK Day is a given.) Or are they on some pagan lunar calandar?

30. And what is this about?
"Well, we're still on our way home from DC. It's been three weeks on the road, but we're gonna make it home tonight. We had a great caravan with Move America Forward, great rallies in about two dozen cities and a huge very successful Gathering of Eagles rally in DC!!

"We met up with hundreds of patriots and veterans along the caravan route to DC and thousands at the DC rally. I've seen estimates ranging from 20 to 30 thousand. What an awesome gathering! I'd say we kicked some liberal butt on that day!! "

So... On which day, specifically, did they kick liberal butt?
----

Gathering of Eagles: http://gatheringofeagles.org/?page_id=83

Look at this. Is war memorial desecration so widespread in America a citizens group felt it needed to form to protect them?

3. We believe that the war memorials are sacred ground; as such, we will not allow them to be desecrated, used as props for political statements, or treated with anything less than the solemn and heartfelt respect they–and the heroes they honor–deserve.

6. However, we are adamantly opposed to the use of violence, vandalism, physical or verbal assaults on our veterans, and the destruction or desecration of our memorials. By defending and honoring these sacred places, we defend and honor those whose blood gave all of us the right to speak as freely as our minds think.

7. We vehemently oppose the notion that it is possible to “support the troops but not the war.” We are opposed to those groups who would claim support for the troops yet engage in behavior that is demeaning and abusive to the men and women who wear our nation’s uniform.
