Voter |February 05, 2012 Just looking at this page and these posters curdled the cream in my coffee.
They talk about revolution and all I can think about is thanking their God that they are too old and arthritic to become another Timothy McVeigh. They probably can't even make it to the Waffle House for a conspiratorial meeting.
Thank you ms. Scarlet, (voter). "their God," do you have one? You seem to take pride in your German heritage giving you a feeling of superiorty over non-Germans....doesn't wash. I was raised by a German since the age of 10. He is now 87. He lost one war under Hitler, lived as a child under Hitler, was held by Russians as a POW for 3 years before he got away. Got to America and served during the Korean conflict. Joined a winner. He taught me a lot, and finally started sharing things after I went into service. He told me that America is going the way of Germany and Russia. I am presently reliving my history, but he has experenced more than me, and telling me. With your German heritgage what have you learned? Go out of town to buy special food, put down Southerners, scoff at us commoners that live below you. You have a great ACT, but it is tiring. You conned a lawyer, you life is because of him.
Your words, "too old and arthritic," don't come to my house to protect your sorry fanny, when it happens, as I am "too old and arthritic,"
