    “The 18th.”

    Sir, if I were gay, I would sooooo want to swap some spit with you.

    But you might have to buy me a few drinks first.

  2. anonone says:

    2d

  3. kaveman says:

    2d???

    *sigh*

    Someone who tries to type something 3 characters long and misspells it.

    In the future, try 2nd or even 2A if you find 3 characters at a time a bit challenging.

    Wow.

  4. a. price says:

    13th

  5. Truth Teller says:

    10th if never used

  6. In the future, try 2nd or even 2A if you find 3 characters at a time a bit challenging.

    Wow.

    who knew you get a 2’aer riled up by taking out a letter

  7. kaveman says:

    Actually, you should have stated the following:

    Who knew you’d get a 2′aer riled up by taking out a letter.

    1. Sentences should start with a capital letter.
    2. Use the word “you’d” when speaking about something in the past.
    3. Sentences should end with a period.

    Glad I could help.

  8. The 9th because we pretend not to understand it anyway and we limp along. We could survive no matter the date of the inauguration and if we replace the VP which is another amendment. We c We could survive without most of them if we took a strict construction of the constitution. I think that we are tremendously stronger for just about all of them and should not dump them.

  9. anonone says:

    kaveman,

    “kaveman” should start with a capital “C”.

    sshl.

    Figure it out.

  10. kaveman says:

    I just tried to look up Donhusseinsquishviti in the dictionary.

    Oddly enough, it’s not there.

    Therefore, I am entitled to convey my opinion that it should be spelled “douchebag.”

  11. nor is kaveman. i shall call him fuckwad

  12. rumor,

    your comment has been moderated….sorry, but that we aren’t spreading that rumor until we have better intel.

    hope you understand.

  13. a. price says:

    the one that says we are allowed to own a device that can kill a few dozen people i a few dozen seconds

    Don, why do you even bother with these people. it is like arguing with an oven mitt

  14. kaveman says:

    Look Don, maybe we got off on the wrong foot here. I didn’t come here to berate you or anybody else. I came here to try and help the less fortunate people who are now experiencing buyers remorse in order to survive what will prove to be a very bumpy ride.

    Pull your paper money out of what now falsely poses as a bank and buy durable goods which not only retain their value, but have historically proven to increase in value in the face of what we’re currently dealing with.

    I know you’re against firearm ownership, but that isn’t stopping you or anybody else from buying gold, silver, diamonds, rubies, saphires etc. Hell, even some decent oil paintings will prove better than paper money soon.

    I wasn’t kidding when I said my gun collection value has doubled and my ammo cache has quadrupled IN 6 MONTHS. Even if you do follow my advice and buy precious metals, you need to face the fact that my guns and ammo have been increasing in value at a faster clip than your gold.

    If I lose my job tomorrow, I can sell half of my collection and pay off my house.

    What are you going to do? Get in line at the local soup kitchen? Grin like the Cheshire Cat after receiving a block of government cheese? Scour the ditch for pop cans?

    I have a plan and am doing quite well. In fact, the worse the economy gets, more and more widowed grannies are selling me their antique guns ,which are worth a smurly buttload, so they can renew their prescription meds.

    I help them, they help me. That’s the only way this “recession” is gonna end. People are gonna figure out how to make money during an economic collapse and then spend that money at the local five and dime.

    If you can’t see that, be sure and scrape the bottom of the bucket at the soup kitchen, that’s where the “meaty” parts wind up.

    I’ll be renting out my payed off home and buying another with my tenets rent checks.

    But if you want to scream “fuckwad” in my general direction while washing your clothes in a local stream, I’ll do my best to actually notice as I advance to a position in life where I can influence just how big a block of cheese you and your family drool over.

    these people are excited about in on coming civil war Glen Beck is masturbating to every night. they WANT everything to fall a part so they can feel vindicated about actually voting for Sarah Palin.
    Go shoot whatever you want Neanderthal. No one expects, other than new news shows who need ratings like a junkie need his fix, things to get better any time soon.
    When Bush left office the economy was a flaming garbage truck in which someone has dumped toxic waste going down a steep hill with no breaks right at an orphanage. inside that truck in a small box was the American dream. first we have to build a wall around the orphanage, than we need t get a while lot of water and whatever else ready to clean up if the truck hits, THAN we need to install breaks (bank regulation) put out the fire, get rid of the toxic waste, put the trash (vicrem panditt) where it needs to go (hell) than watch things improve… only to go the other direction when the center of the country swings back to the right and we elect jenna bush.

    Perhaps someone will buy part of your collection and then get the rest for free.

    After they pry off your hands, of course.

  17. Geezer says:

    The 3rd, about quartering soldiers in private homes, doesn’t seem all that important. If that ever comes into play, our problems would be a lot more severe than the absence of the 3rd Amendment.

    The 4th already has been gutted by allowing police to seize “suspected” drug money and other suspected ill-gotten gains.

    Getting rid of the 7th, trial by jury in civil cases, would arguably be a good idea. Repeal is pretty much what people who want limits on jury awards are advocating.

  18. Geezer says:

    To Kaveman: We all have our masturbatory fantasies. The rest of us don’t type ours here.

  19. Weer'd Beard says:

    Awww here comes the “Progressives” with their name calling for we KNOW what happens when they attempt to back up their claims.

    You are certainly an impressive lot.

    Also I think all Amendments should be held sacred, and ones not being followed should be enforced.

  20. kaveman says:

    Wow.

    I can’t even find the time to point out all the misspellings, grammer torture or logical fallacies.

    In all honesty, I should have typed tenents instead of tenets, so my bad; nobody’s perfect. But one missed key stroke hardly compares to this.

    Maybe Obama’s plan to pump more money into education is something I can get behind after all.

    hopeychange!!!!!!!!!!!

  21. a. price says:

    i was wondering how long it would take for Weer’d to see the Batshit signal and show up.

  22. Geezer says:

    Actually, I’m pro-2nd Amendment. I just don’t have masturbatory fantasies about the breakdown of civilization.

    And the word is spelled “tenants.”

  23. Geezer says:

    @WB: Sacred? The 3rd? The problem with you people isn’t that you like guns, it’s that you have no sense of proportion. GTFU (grow the fuck up).

  24. a. price says:

    the problem is, these people think we want to take their guns, tax the guns we have taken, force their daughters to have sex with black men, than use the guns we took and are taxing to perform an abortion, than force their sons to marry each other on the local church lawn.
    this is the future Glen and Sean have convinced them is coming, and it is why they are getting ever crazier.

  25. kaveman says:

    “Actually, I’m pro-2nd Amendment. I just don’t have masturbatory fantasies about the breakdown of civilization.”

    Wow. I didn’t think anybody knew about my super secret ritual of jerking off to Heston’s “cold dead hands” speech every sunday after singing the lord’s prayer until now.

    I have been exposed and will now go quietly into the corner and rape a young boy like a good catholic.

  26. a. price says:

    very big of you Geico Guy. i would urge you to wait until the boy is at least 18, than i would support your relationship and fight for your rights. happy reacharounds

  27. kaveman says:

    “the problem is, these people think we want to take their guns, tax the guns we have taken, force their daughters to have sex with black men, than use the guns we took and are taxing to perform an abortion, than force their sons to marry each other on the local church lawn.”

    Wow.

    How exactly would a tax on confiscated property be implemented? In my bird-sized brain, once property is confiscated, right or wrong, it is now the property of those who did the confiscation. Are government agents going to tax themselves on ill-gotten booty? Please elaborate.

    That whole reference of forcing “our daughters” in having sex with our black sons is so fundamentally ridiculous, that I will leave it to others to refute. Sorry “others,” but I’ve got nothing.

    Wow, just wow.

    This is then(notice I used the word “then” rather than “than”) used to explain how taxes paid on property someone no longer owns will be used to abort babies.

    If I continue to visit this blog, I’ll need a government bailout to buy enough duct tape to wrap my head so I don’t mess up the kitchen counters and decrease the value of my home.

    If this is any indication of what hopeychange has to offer, I’m really not sure America is where all the “boat people” should be aiming for.

  28. kaveman says:

    Wake up sheeple.

    Your money is already gone. A gold brick in your gun safe is worth a mighty bit more than what the false banks say you have in their bankrupt building.

    Your. Money. Is. Already. Gone.

    Feel free to call me a liar until the fictional cows come home and fart us into a global warming nightmare.

    Your money is gone.

    hopeychange!!!

  29. kaveman says:

    That’s all the time I can spare today folks. If any of you wish to pay off my my home, er, uh, I mean buy one of firearms. Be prepared to pass a background check and have cash on hand. I also have a wide variety of ammo available. At the very least, it might enable you to position yourself at the head of the “cheese line.” If I don’t reply right away, I’m probably out buying another house for dirt cheap. Be patient, proles, and I just may allow you to bask in my glory.

    I also have some gold and silver for sale, but I doubt any of you can afford it.

    Bad economy my ass.

  30. a. price says:

    its called satire geico guy. i was exaggerating the fears of the right. if it struck a nerve, maybe it was too good.

  31. a. price says:

    as geico guy retreats into his hole to protect his guns with his brick of gold from evil president barry….

  32. I second Dana. The 16th amendment and let’s replace the income tax with the FAIR tax.

  33. Geezer says:

    Oh Christ. It’s officially a circus now that the clown is here.

  34. Dear Kaveman, sorry man, but you are not my type.
