I nominate Sean Hannity for Douchebag of Liberty to replace Robert Novak when he is found dead in a Dominican boy rape den.

You mean the American dream to wreck the economy and lie to the American people for personal gain?

GAT_00: You mean the American dream to wreck the economy and lie to the American people for personal gain?

No, the American dream where you get all the money in the world, and you stick it in your ears and go PTHHHHHHHHHHTTTTTT. As opposed to the European dream to be in the South of Europe - to be in Greece, in Italy, in Spain, and to be on a moped with no helmet on, riding along, going, "ciao!".

And when you die, you look a mess.

Can we really afford to take Hannity off the line? No one can handle a big Dijon Interdiction: Light Dragoons Operation like he can.

Governor GW Bush, 7-22-1999 This is where my campaign is headed. We will carry a message of hope and renewal to every community in this country. We will tell every American, "The dream is for you."

We WANT him on the front line. We NEED him on the front line. For he... is a GREAT AMERICAN.

Go for it, boys. See how it works.

Oh man, how old is that? Bush looks 30 years older now, but I bet that isn't more than 10-12 years ago?

GAT_00: Oh man, how old is that?

92-96? Guessing.

as long as they're not the party of Americone Dream, I don't care.

That's so hot, Karl.

Then who's Sapphire?

Love the glasses.

As opposed to the President who actually epitomizes the American dream. I mean, where else but America could a socialist fascist communist terrorist empty suit Kenyan seekrit Muslin grow up to continue the job of wrecking the country from a silver spoon draft dodging conniving little frat boy?

I just threw up in my mouth a little.

Since when has the American dream been hate and judgment?

Honestly, what the hell were these guys going to do it McCain won? Sit at their desks with their thumbs up their asses?

The same thing they do every night, Pinky.

Be the party of whatever the fark you want. The rest of the world will see you as the party of ignorant bible thumping racists.

The term "American Dream" is such a load of bullshiat.. But to take that and claim it as your own destroys the level of smugness I thought was possible for human beings to emit. Well, fark it --- I hearby claim that the Democratic Party is the party of puppy farts and pixie tits. Beat that, you sanctimonious twats.

NeverDrunk23: Honestly, what the hell were these guys going to do it McCain won? Sit at their desks with their thumbs up their asses?

Myanmar?

It's my American Dream to be born with a silver spoon in my mouth and be handed everything I've ever wanted. Too bad it's a bit too late for that one.

Only if "The American Dream" is two parts "Hostel" mixed with five parts "Top Gun" and a dash of "Buttsex with Little Boys XVII" for flavoring.

But you can't fault them for not living it to the fullest.

The pint of Americone Dream in my freezer will outlast the Republican Party at this rate. Excellent.

"B-B-But Clinton!"

I am really starting to believe that Beck/OReilly/Rush/Hannity/Coulter/etc all voted for Obama (and voted for Clinton) just so he could get into office and they could biatch about him and get more ratings/attention. None of them give a flying fark about this country and instead just want attention.

Great headline.

Hannity and Rove fap to this picture:

In the photo Rove is wearing a "BUSH" campaign pin.

That would mean that it likely dates from either the '88 or '92 Presidential campaign of "Poppy" Bush. Rove was fired in the midst of the '92 campaign, so it couldn't be later than say summer/early fall of '92. I'm leaning towards the '88 election myself.

lawboy87: That would mean that it likely dates from either the '88 or '92 Presidential campaign of "Poppy" Bush.

Couldn't make out the pin, but the pass around his neck makes it a campaign. I left open the possibility for the Governor's race. It's probably 88' because they look happy. 92', not so much.

OK, the big "F" badge is amusing too. Give him credit, he predicted it many years before.

Free Radical: Since when has the American dream been hate and judgment?

Well, the American Dream has never been, "Got mine, fark you" either...until these guys came to power.

I feel the urge to tounge-kiss someone.

"Forget the politicians. The politicians are put there to give you the idea that you have freedom of choice . . . you don't. You have no choice. You have owners. They own you. They own everything. They own all the important land. They own, and control the corporations. They've long since bought, and paid for the Senate, the Congress, the state houses, the city halls, they got the judges in their back pockets and they own all the big media companies, so they control just about all of the news and information you get to hear. They got you by the balls. They spend billions of dollars every year lobbying to get what they want.
Well, we know what they want. They want more for themselves and less for everybody else, but I'll tell you what they don't want, they don't want a population of citizens capable of critical thinking. They don't want well informed, well educated people capable of critical thinking. They're not interested in that. That doesn't help them. That's against their interests. That's right. They don't want people who are smart enough to sit around a kitchen table and think about how badly they're getting farked by a system that threw them overboard 30 farkin' years ago. They don't want that.
You know what they want? They want obedient workers. Obedient workers, people who are just smart enough to run the machines and do the paperwork. And just dumb enough to passively accept all these increasingly shaittier jobs with the lower pay, the longer hours, the reduced benefits, the end of overtime and vanishing pension that disappears the minute you go to collect it, and now they're coming for your Social Security money. They want your farkin' retirement money. They want it back so they can give it to their criminal friends on Wall Street, and you know something? They'll get it. They'll get it all from you sooner or later cause they own this farkin' place. It's a big club and you ain't in it. You and I are not in The big club. By the way, it's the same big club they use to beat you over the head with all day long when they tell you what to believe. All day long beating you over the head with their media telling you what to believe, what to think and what to buy. The table has tilted folks.
The game is rigged and nobody seems to notice. Nobody seems to care. Good honest hard-working people . . . white collar, blue collar it doesn't matter what color shirt you have on. Good honest hard-working people continue, these are people of modest means continue to elect these rich cocksuckers who don't give a fark about you. They don't care about you at all. At all. And nobody seems to notice. Nobody seems to care. That's what the owners count on. The fact that Americans will probably remain willfully ignorant of the big red, white and blue dick that's being jammed up their arseholes everyday, because the owners of this country know the truth. It's called the American Dream cause you have to be asleep to believe it."
--The late, great George Carlin

Well, they can't use "Party of Family Values" anymore.

Nina_Hartley's_Ass: Well, they can't use "Party of Family Values" anymore.

It is funny. Republican strategists are saying it is something they have to avoid now. It is beautiful.

ChickenTits: The term "American Dream" is such a load of bullshiat.

I don't think so.

People don't realize that all the American Dream is is the self-made life. If you want to be a corporate ladder-climber, go for it. If you want to sit on the sidewalk and play guitar for quarters, go for it. If you want a career, or just a job that gets you by while you pursue fleeting interests; if you want live in a secluded mansion, or a modest apartment; if you want to travel ... whatever you want to do, whatever your dream is, it's (supposed to be) achievable.

Some people have a plastic-wrapped, conformist vision of The American Dream™, and market the hell out of it. Republicans have one vision, Democrats another. But you don't have to buy into anyone else's vision or dream.

One great thing about liberty is you can say no.

The self-made life -- pursuing your own dream in America -- is what the American dream really is. It's what the fundamentalist Pentacostal housewife in rural Kentucky, the leather-chaps-clad gay man in California, the Wall Street Banker, the recently immigrated sidewalk fruit-seller, and hundreds of millions of others have in common.

Don't buy into or ridicule others' dreams; it's the easiest way to ensure you never realize yours.

If it's your dream to take away the 4th and 5th amendments, misinterpret (again) the 2nd amendment and declare this nation christian (which destroys a bit of the 1st)... then sure... that's the american dream?

I thought the american dream entitled keeping the constitution intact? I thought the american dream entitled, you know, freedom for people of all sexual orientations to live freely and without discrimination?

I could rant for about 5 more paragraphs, but I won't

The American Dream is owning your own house and being self-sufficient and providing for your family. That is all. The right has turned it into a race to make the most money.

The American dream isn't more government with more power and new ways to screw us all. Get back to me when you figure that out.

Hell, I'll even listen if they decide to meet me half way and give conservatism a shot. They've tried everything else.

Republican motto of 2012: "We getting funky like a monkey as we go to the pay window on the mothership, if you wiiiiilllllll..."

Won't work.

'American Dream' -- okay, that's sort of forward-looking. If that party's going to resurge, it will have to paint a picture of a wealthy, prosperous, educated future for America. However --

The Republican establishment as demonstrated here doesn't have the brainpower to get us there. Watch the video, those two look at Republican rebranding as a sales pitch, nothing more. We hear a few of the same old axioms we've heard since the mid-70s, and all they think they need to do to succeed is find the right ad agency, the right slogan.

Look at recent election results; Americans don't buy it anymore. Here's what they should do: Take a good look at all their cherished beliefs, question every one of them to figure out what's a first principle and what's not. Take the *real* first principles, sit your best thinkers down for a couple months with 'em, and generate some plans for dealing with the world as it is today without thinking about politics or constituencies.

Then, only then, work on the sales shiat. If your ideas are good, the people will follow.

We had more taxes and more government when the American Dream was thriving. Get back to me when the middle class has the same opportunity for the American Dream as they did in the 50's.

SynthLord: Don't buy into or ridicule others' dreams; it's the easiest way to ensure you never realize yours

I'm not ridiculing people's dreams. I'm ridiculing the fact that the "American Dream" is not unique at all. People all around the world dream of a better future for themselves, whatever that may be to them, but putting a big fat America in front of it doesn't make it any more meaningful to me.. I understand where you are coming from, but maybe I've just turned against the phrase because it comes off as trite, and it's usually sanctimonious dicks who use it. I love this country, but I dont like the dry humping of it.

Sabyen91: The American Dream is owning your own house and being self-sufficient and providing for your family. That is all.

I agree with the self-sufficiency part, but the rest of that isn't necessarily my dream.

Yes, you have a right to pursue your happiness in whatever form it comes, but that doesn't mean you get to obstruct others from achieving theirs.

The real tragedy is that some people achieve their dreams at the expense of everyone else.

Sabyen91: The right has turned it into a race to make the most money.

In certain circumstances, that may be true, but there's nothing wrong with making as much money as you want to -- as long as you don't do so in a criminal manner.

It doesn't matter if it isn't your dream. It is the original American Dream. Now it is a nasty, kick your neighbor to get ahead dream.

I'm sorry, Hannity has told me that if you tax the well-to-do you bring the economy to its knees and socialists run rampant. Comrade Eisenhower presided over the worst economic period this country has ever seen, am I right?
