YAY!!! Bush doesn't support slavery!!!!! Wheeeeee!!!!!!!

The people I watched this debate with nearly fell on the floor when he started talking about the Dred Scott case. "What the FUCK is he talking about?" was a common response.

Even for him, that was crazy. He has this pattern of just pulling stuff out of his ass and saying "hey look at this!" and the rest of us just cringe.

I shook my head and thought "his handlers want to fucking STRANGLE him right now."

So I'm so glad Bush doesn't support slavery! Whew, I was really worried about that!

That could cost him some of his base. n/t

4. That is the single funniest comment I have seen this evening.

Bravo.

The scary thing is that it might be true!

2. The shell game, with a dried pea pay-off to the starved "winner"

3. Slavery is expensive.

Feudalism is a lot better for the masters.

A slave's owners were supposed to provide a home, food and medical care.

What Bush and his cronies want will be a *LOT* more profitable for them than slavery. It'll be neofeudalism, where we'll all work cheap as hell. As for food, shelter, and medical care, we'll be on our own ... or even better for them, our overlords can sell those things back to us.
