Of course conservatives are kool and liberals are definitely not. Look at the hypocrite intolerant libs, they are a bunch of spineless dorks who probably all had their lunch money stolen at 2nd grade recess.

Bunch of wussy pansies and wussy pansies are NOT kool.”</p> <p>Indeed.</p> The comments on the “Are Conservatives Cool Again?” one have to win the prize for the saddest thing on the internet, ever.

Then I clicked on a few and found out just how truly pathetic and whiny the original postings really were. Wow.</p> Color me naïve, but I first thought TBogg’s “shorters” versions were high snark.

Take the actress Cherly Felicia Rhodes (whoever the fuck that is). Her diatribe today, from what I can gather from her meandering mess, is that she’s pissed that she actually has to rely on the four unions she’s a member of (in bio) to get paying voice over work at places with anti-Bush bumper stickers, to subsidize her the true work mentioned in her bio, which consists basically of conservative one woman plays (ie. she doesn’t make squat from). Oh yeah, conservatives can’t get jobs in this enviroment and their agents won’t work with them, even though she get’s the job and her agent still works with her. These people are about as self aware as beach balls.</p> So true jaf48. Take the actress Cherly Felicia Rhodes (whoever the fuck that is).
