Here's another example. Mike O'Neal, Speaker of the House of Rep. in Kansas, sent an email encouraging people to pray for Obama's death.

Read his bio. A lack of education is a dangerous thing.

Given the recent confusion, can you please clarify whether or not this is parody.

I understand. So many conservatives are caricatures of themselves that it's hard to satirize them.

I think it works both ways. We see the world so differently that either side's actual position looks like a parody to the other.

Bah, I say. Large numbers of conservatives have become something that would have seemed ridiculous not long ago. They rail against policies supported by their icons. The right can't say that about the left.

Yes, we liberals have scores of women on deep cover. They seek out promising black conservatives and start up affairs with them, so that if they run for President we can take them down by outing the decades-long affair. We also put drugs in their beverages so they babble like idiots during interviews.

I make a dollar, and pay my income tax on it. Then I pay my phone bill AND IT'S TAXED AGAIN. Then the phone company has it, AND IT'S TAXED AGAIN. Then the phone company gives its stockholder a dividend, AND IT'S TAXED AGAIN!!!111!!!

It's total insanity! Where's the double jeopardy protection for our currency?! The only reasonable solution is to record the serial number of every bill as it is taxed the first time, to ensure that it is never taxed again. Are ya with me?!
Right and let's make money out of thin air because once I get my salary and pay taxes nobody should ever have to pay tax on that money again. Not the supermarket, or the gas station, or the department store I spend it at. Hmmmm, so only people who get newly printed bills should have to pay taxes and then everyone else will just go free.

That was me, accidentally not signed in. I was being - y'know - sarcastic.

Okay, I get it now. But, really, I've seen some pretty crazy sh*t on DCUM so I thought it was entirely possible some wingnut believed that.

As a secondary benefit, this would impoverish the Red States, and allow the Blue States to become fiscally solvent developed nations with real social programs. Plus things like produce and raw materials would be cheaper since places like Mississippi would be competing with Mexico. Of course, we'd have issues with illegal immigrants from the South sneaking over the border to work "north of the border" but that's okay.

I saw Herman Cain. I actually saw him run for president. Exactly how was he prevented from running? Do you have a really short memory or something?

He was driven out by racist liberals, of course. They went back in time and tricked him into infidelity, just like they went back in time to fake Obama's birth certificate.

Other than for short periods of trouble, like 1787-1860...then 1876-1965...and for the history of the world, internationally.
