Default George Carlin and politics. Some of these are great.

George Carlin Quotes - Famous George Carlin Political Quotes

"Boy, these conservatives are really something, aren't they? They're all in favor of the unborn. They will do anything for the unborn. But once you're born, you're on your own. Pro-life conservatives are obsessed with the fetus from conception to nine months. After that, they don't want to know about you. They don't want to hear from you. No nothing. No neonatal care, no day care, no head start, no school lunch, no food stamps, no welfare, no nothing. If you're preborn, you're fine; if you're preschool, you're ******."

George Carlin was absolutely right with that bit. He was one funny guy.

Default Really like this one.

"The real reason that we can't have the Ten Commandments in a courthouse: You cannot post 'Thou shalt not steal,' 'Thou shalt not commit adultery,' and 'Thou shalt not lie' in a building full of lawyers, judges, and politicians. It creates a hostile work environment."

It should end more like:

"....when you're aborted, you're ****ed because you cannot benefit from preschool, daycare, school lunch.......and laughing and playing and holding a new puppy and playing in the sandbox."

Tal: He also said in that same article that poor people have no incentive because we give them too much money.

I had always believed Carlin did not like America, in fact Carlin like Bill Maher didn't like much of anything or anyone. He was over rated as a comedian and only got noticed because of his outlandish language

Not sure if you could call a fetus a person who is conscious for most if not almost all abortions. Top 10 Anti-Abortion Myths - Top 10 Myths About Abortion

So we had another thread about abortion that ended up being shut down, not because people were upset about the termination of budding human life, but because people got crazy angry that religion was brought into it.

Now you want to start it up again by quoting a funny, but atheist comic?

I'm not home now, but on the road and will be home pretty soon. You want myths?

I'm happy to dispel your assumptions if this thread is still operational by the time I return to TV.

I am sure...a very important and contributing member of our great society.

I dont doubt what you say, but quoting comedians is getting pretty old hat with the Democrats, dont you think ?

Its ok with me if that is the high standard...I just find it unusual

Liberal Democrats have a thing for celebrities who utter leftist political dogma, and bashing Republicans and Conservatives make the left swoon. They put them on a pedestal, and elevate them them in their minds to the ranks of political gurus, of a sort.


It's not so with the very few celebrities who have the guts to risk their career by espousing conservative ideas. Conservatives welcome them, but they remain in the background.

Personally, I would rather listen to Bill Maher than to Rush Limbaugh, Glenn Beck, Ann Coulter, Laura Ingraham, or any of those other political comedians on Fox. Gretchen Carlson, though, is quite pleasant.
