    The fact that Tony Blair and George Bush never saw trial in the Hague is one of the major sources of my radicalisation. Just reading about the shit they caused to happen and seeing them walk free destroyed any faith I had in liberal democracy.

      'But he offered candy to Michelle that one time! Have a heart, everybody makes mistakes' -Libs

      I can't wait for the day they canonize Trump. My lib relatives still don't believe he'll be buried with full honors at Arlington and granted all the gaudy excess given to any former President that dies. Commentators will wax poetic about how he caused many Americans to become more politically aware, or some neutral trash like that, much like they do with any demonstrably terrible person that dies.

        “It’s not about honoring Donald Trump,” they’ll say, “It’s about honoring the office of the President.”

    Correction on my previous statement: you do not, under any circumstances, have to hand it to George Bush for rehabilitating his image with liberals.

    The rich like to say what they'll try to do, without saying what the poor will receive.

    There have never been compassionate conservatives. There are barely any compassionate libs.

    Compassion is when you cut billions of dollars from the social programs, public safety nets, regulatory watch dogs, environmental protection agencies to kill 1,000,000 Iraqis in addition to the 500,000 Iraqi kids killed by sanctions defended in an infamous interview given by Madeleine Albright and the hundreds of thousands of Iraqis killed over 4 decades of crippling sanctions on Iraq and the hundreds of thousands of Iraqis killed in the first Gulf war and in addition to the hundreds of thousands of dead, crippled, and maimed Afghans including thousands of Afghan orphans.

    I want to compassionately dump him inside a massive tank of pig shit.
