I saw this and thought it might be worth reminding folks. You guys been too PC as of late. Let's rant and complain! Mostly, I want to be as far from PC as possible. Aren't you guys tired of being PC yet?

[dhermesc]

Is this really Andy Rooney? He !!!!!es and moans a lot, but I don't think he'd say the above, if I'm wrong its time for me to get an attitude adjustment.

[dinengurth]

It sounds like something I read on the net that was very similar to this. Either way, it's so sensible that it's funny. I certainly wouldn't object to someone w/ those beliefs running the country.

[Rufus Rhastus J]

I got it in my e-mail and the sender is relieable but, he could have been duped! There's a lot of people taking credit for a lot of stuff they have no stake in. Could be a fraud but, Andy is caustic at times. it's not too hard for me to think he said this stuff. At least, i'd like to think a memeber of the elite media could , for once, be honest.

[Shaun]

couldn't be rooney he is a flaming liberal

[Rave]

Hummmm,got the same thing in my mail and I must say I have to agree with most of it,I know by doing that I must qualify for some kind of derogitory label,but to tell you the truth,at this point I really don't give a flip!

[Thrawn]

Sounds more like Col. Jeff Cooper.

That is already a requirement

Wow, what a load of bull.

Oh how enlightened of you.
I'll bet this is a guy who starts wars and never fights them.

Bill Gates stole the idea and then created a monopoly.
That is why he couldn't keep every penny he earned.

The next operating system thats beeter has already been invented and
its name is Linux.


What a bunch of ignorant bull.

[BattleRifleG3]

I'll never forget a quote of a former professor, a Taiwanese immigrant:
"Linux is free... Salvation is free. It is a free gift! It is better! Yet people choose hell!"

Far as PC goes, I just watched an old Superman cartoon made during WWII where a posse of Japanese stole a new giant US bomber, and the title of it was "Japoteurs".

Now I get yelled at for saying "Jap" and I always thought it was just an abbreviation, like Brit, Finn, or Swede.

How misguided How can one choose if he doesn't know he have a choice?

Didn't mean to make you mad. Sorry!

Your anger is noticed. Sorry, again! Too bad you couldn't channel that anger into gathering folks to be angry about our rights being stolen over night! Nobody seems to think we have a problem.

I hope that I don’t make you mad either, but you are wrong on this one! Seeing liberal nonsense in this type forum really troubles me. It seems to me that if you buy into all the current political correctness, you sell out the Constitution and the Bill of Rights. I think everyone here enjoys the freedoms provided by those documents, the Second Amendment in particular. You can’t pick and choose which parts you like; you either support none of them (move to France) or all of them.

[Dennis]

I recall him saying this on 60 minutes

[Rufus Rhastus J]

I suppose it matter not who or when or what.....the point is: I LIKE IT! And, like Rave, I guess I shall be fitted for a new lable....or the old lable.....a lable anyway! I wear it with pride! It's about time somebody reminded us how stupid the PC crowd has made us and, how much they have gotten into our brains....at least those who still have a brain.

Wrong on what?
Saying that " just because you were not born in this
> country, you are
> qualified for any special loan programs, government
> sponsored bank loans"

is factually false. Small business loans have nothing to do with where you were born. This is complete !!!!!!!!.
And for what its worth, you're the one who buys into "political corectness" (post 9/11 congress approved). Heard of the Patriot Act? Can you identify which parts of the bill or rights it nullifies?
I want my constitution back dammit!

Finally, another convert...or.....were you already there, just silent? Either way, welcome aboard. I'm glad I'm not the only whack-O here. Yes, I know others agree, I'm just pleased to find another one. So we will be the majority and Joe will finally have to agree!
