4 Yeah. Like I want to take tips on being hip from Jerry Rivers.

Posted by: mama winger at April 04, 2013 03:13 PM (P6QsQ)

5 I agree, "criminal trespassers" is much better, and less confusing, given the whole UFO thing. "Aliens" should be reserved for *actual* aliens, who are probably also here illegally.

It is, in fact, his most frequent theme.

7 How about "criminal invaders"? Is that too biased?

Posted by: mama winger at April 04, 2013 03:14 PM (P6QsQ)

Yes.... because if Letterman and Madcow married... it would be same sex marriage....

18 Â“I am just sick and tired, and I think it has crossed the line into nonsense Â— this ongoing, politically nuanced, religiously nuanced discussion of gay marriage and gay rights,Â” Letterman began. Â“It is absolute stupidity. Humans have the right to do what humans do. ThatÂ’s it. End of story. ThereÂ’s no argument. ThereÂ’s no exceptions. Humans have rights, and they get to do what humans get to do. Case closed. Good night.Â”

33 Geraldo Rivera has a radio show in the late mornings.

My choices are some asshole on ESPN or Rivera.

I usually choose Rivera, and about half the time I am screaming "fuck you, you ignorant cocksucker" within five minutes.

He's still better than the idiot on ESPN.

Posted by: Minnfidel at April 04, 2013 03:22 PM (u0Z3Y)

45 So for those of you who actually watch such figures, there continues to be absolutely no sign of any hiring boom in the US economy.

(Let's remind ourselves that one reason America voters re-elected Barack Obama is that Bill Clinton promised them that they would soon experience rollicking late-Nineties prosperity if they did so. Clinton said they would "feel it", and soon. Not happening.)

You would think that a GOP which had an ounce of sense would actually take this horrible drought of jobs, worst since the Depression, and contrast it with the push for amnesty, and make it a point to repeatedly ask the question,

"What are we doing talking about adding millions of new immigrants to the US workforce when there are not enough jobs for US citizens who want to work? Won't this increase competition for what job openings there are, and drive down wages even further?"

It's almost as though -- trying to put my finger on it here -- it's almost as though there is a large and influential bloc within the GOP who don't give a single solitary shit about the economic prospects of ordinary American workers. But we all know that can't possibly be true. Or can it be?

48 what an excellent oppurtunity to learn a new word -- palimpsest A palimpsest is a tablet that has been scribed, erased, and scribed several times over, often leaving the previous texts stiil partly visible. (Think of a chalkboard that wasn't erased thoroughly and then used again.) So here we are as we're re-rewriting history in real-time, changing definitions as we go along, e.g., marriage and illegal aliens.

100 73 Technically they are earthlings. The whole "alien" thing was always a false flag. Reptilians are extra dimensional so maybe "Extra-dimensional Reptiloids" is more accurate.

Posted by: elizabethe .................Depends if they are squishes. I don't expect to agree with any candidate 100%. But when they completely abandon core conservative principals and then every 4 years talk a good game. Nah. Won't do it again. The GOP is going to go the way of the Whigs if they don't get their shit together pretty soon and stop being Dem Lite.

109 Not having any illusions about their actual status may be the only thing that keeps them out of Federal prison. An [insert term here] could be sentenced to as much as 10 years in Federal prison and fined $250k for possession of a single .22 bullet under existing Federal law...

110 President Obama assessed the beauty of California's attorney general Kamala Harris, calling her "the best looking attorney general," during remarks at a fundraiser in Atherton, California.

"It's true! C'mon," he said as the crowd laughed, according to a report provided by a print reporter at the home of John Goldman, an heir to the Levi-Strauss fortune.

I guess Prezzy has nothing else better to do except shoot (and miss) basketball and attend fundraisers

Either Letterman didn't care to acknowledge, or doesn't seem to understand that to a great extent, people who support traditional marriage don't a shit what gays do, including considering themselves to be married. They simply don't want a sacred institution to be redefined by the government.

In any case, Letterman's contract is up next year and hopefully he will retire. He is a repulsive and unfunny old doofus who hasn't been worth watching for over twenty years. He can go fuck himself.

115 Today I was at the kids' school doing lunch/recess duty and they were playing a new game. Instead of "Sharks and Minnows" it is now "Border Crossing", complete with drug dealers and border agents. One element I helped them to refine is to have the border agents give them EBT cards.

123 Geraldo's stupid is not adequate from the headline. To quote: Aside from un-hip, using 'illegal alien' or 'illegals' to describe undocumented immigrants reveals bias like using 'negro' or 'homosexual' Â— Geraldo Rivera (@GeraldoRivera) April 04, 2013 'Homosexual' is biased? The actual, you know, term is biased?

124 You guys don't have any ideas. NONE! All of your arguments have been debunked using geometric logic. I don't have to listen to you. I'm not listening. You're all caricatures. I do what I want.

127 But allowing other nations to dump tens of millions of their poorest, most unskilled and uneducated citizens on the backs of U.S. taxpayers is totally hip and cool, eh Jerry? Permitting vicious drug gangs, terrorists, and other criminal aliens to overrun our borders and prey upon our citizens is even more hip, eh Jerry? I'm so sick of these idiots.

128 I've heard that our government runs ads in Mexico about how to secure benefits in America.I really don't want to check that it is true,because I might stroke out. Posted by: steevy at April 04, 2013 07:36 PM (9XBK2) _____________________ Sadly, it's all too true. The program is run by the FDA, and it advertises in Mexico to Mexicans who are thinking about illegally crossing our border, that they can get food stamps once they get here. This is despite the fact that federal law prohibits illegal aliens from receiving U.S. food stamps. But the all-wise and all-knowing Barry Obama, who is so much smarter and better than the rest of us, blatantly violates that federal law, because he does not personally agree with it. Never mind that it is a clear violation of his oath of office. As with our immigration laws, Barry simply ignores any federal laws with which he personally disagrees. And the wimps in Congress know about it, and do nothing (except for Jeff Sessions, who sends Obama a sternly-worded letter once in a while).

138 You all know, I'm one of those conservatives who's definitely in the "weakly opposed, but doesn't really care all that much" camp about gay marriage. More animated about taking it to the idiots (as I perceive it, at least) on my own team than the other side.

This bullshit back-and-forth between Maddow and Letterman? Lemme tell you, my kneejerk reflex from watching this crap is to say "FUCK YOU, GAY MARRIAGE CAN GO TO HELL." Just to spite these smug, self-assured prats.

That's how stupidly toxic this is.

142 Let me break it down for you Geraldo. They are aliens meaning they are not citizens. They are here illegally meaning they are breaking some federal law by either coming into the country illegally or over staying a visa. That makes them illegal aliens. I do not care who brought them here or how they go here or how long they have been here. They are illegal aliens and no one will stop us from calling them that. I have lost all my empathy or sympathy for them. And you make me sick with you irrelevant bloviating.
