    Default Reparations?

    Someone mentioned that if Obamessiah is elected, reparation payments won't be far behind. This is an old clip but it addresses reparation payments as only Dave Chappelle could and get away with...... hilarious because we know from the Katrina experience, it's quite possibly, exactly like it would be.

    If we are going to pay reparations, I vote that we start with payments to my husband's family, in reparation for the early demise of their ancestors, who died fighting against slavery in the Civil War. I've seen their gravestones.

    And I'd like reparations also, for my four ancestors who fought (unsuccessfully) for their independence - including the one who was wounded in battle and the one who spent the last six months of the war in a Yankee POW camp.

    I'd like reparations for the millions of dollars of farmland burned and half-dozen or so civilian men in my family hanged by Sherman's army. History books revere that son of a bitch for his so-called strategy, but if I thought I'd get away with it, I'd piss on that sadistic bastard's grave.

    Name one thing the government does better than the private sector and I'll show you something that requires the use of force to accomplish.

    No shit? Many say that what he did was the reason the war ended. He promised Lincoln he could do it, and he did it, and he ended the war.

    I was the one who mentioned reparations, and by the sound of husseins raging, frothing at the mouth, America hating, racist preacher, you can bet the subject will see new life if hussein is elected President.

    Frankly though... if hussein beats hitlery to the nomination, I think the boy is going to get ripped a new asshole when that campaign swing starts.

    I want reperations for the years of money the government has taken away from my family just to give it to SOB's that are too lazy to get off their asses and work.
    People should not be afraid of their governments. Governments should be afraid of their people.

    I want reparations because I live in a country that:

    1. Cares about Paris Hilton, Britney Spears, and Anna Nicole Smith.
    2. Lets Michael Moore have a profitable career
    3. Gets upset with a Christmas tree in the city square, but allows porn in high school English classes.
    4. Has porous borders and does not have the will to deal with it.
    5. Upholds the constitutionality of taking my private property under the guise of unbridled eminent domain laws, yet says it is a matter of privacy whether a fully formed baby can legally have its brains punctured with scissors and sucked out just before birth.

    Then you deserve reperations for the Government not helping your family thus leading them to a life of crime.
    People should not be afraid of their governments. Governments should be afraid of their people.
