  1. What happened to the AV? Used to be a pretty conservative place before I left for the Marines 18 years ago. Did the LA Times buy this paper?

    • Jason, conservative?

      Conservative is just another name for racist?

      Yes, in case you have not figured it out, the demographics are changing and slowly but surely, we are getting rid of the racist republicans.

  3. …And not a peep (or should I say “scribble”) about the utter disaster Obama has brought upon us through his failed health care policy!

    Somebody should tap Sergio on the shoulder and tell him that knocking the Tea Party has become so passé.

    • I’m just waiting for President Obama to tell us that’s it’s all because of a YouTube video that the rollout is a disaster and Hillary Clinton in the background yelling “What difference does it make?!”

    • Matt,

      Is that what Fox news is telling you? It is ironic that you and your teabaggers are putting the Healthcare Reform down when it has not been fully implemented. You know, we used to say the same thing about social security when it first came put. Your fear and the republikkkans fear is that Healthcare Reform may actually work.

      • Has anyone ever heard Faux News report a positive outcome for a person who had no health insurance or a lousy insurance plan that got a better plan cheaper?

        Nah, not Faux. They keep featuring suckers who complain about the ACA and whose stories upon investigation by diligent (not Faux) reporters are debunked over and over and over. Yet, Faux keeps on doin’ it.

        And, MATT BELIEVES IT.

    • Not as long as the tea party says and does stupid things. They’ve voted to kill the ACA 50 times now, knowing full well that it won’t pass the Senate or get signed by the President.

      So, it looks like your blind and the tea party’s assault on the ACA is passe.

  4. You know, I’m a fairly intelligent guy, and 90% of the time I get these. I don’t get this one though. I hate to ask, but would someone mind explaining the joke?

    • I think it’s comparing the Tea party with the Jewish held in concentration camps and now they are all going to the showers.
      That’s just wrong on so many levels.

    • I think he is saying it would be a happier Thanksgiving if the tea partiers would be rounded up and slaughtered.

        • OMG! Look, don’t get me wrong; I’m an adult and understand where turkeys come from and how the business of producing them works. I am a meat eater and have no issue with the concept of where my meats of choice come from.

          HOWEVER; I am not the only person in the country and can respect those who may be a bit more squeamish about the concepts of how we produce our foods – specifically meats.

          I can not imagine any serious contender for any political position being stupid enough to pull an interview in plain view of the killing of livestock… Except for TeaBaggers, apparently.
