chaos – I think you’re confusing “funny” with “tragic”. It’s tragic that hate crime laws exist, it’s tragic that the most powerful man in the world pretends to be victimized because of his race, and it’s tragic that liberals frequently conduct witch hunts against those who exercise their constitutional rights.

Without those tragedies, my satire would be neither possible nor necessary.

Funny how you guys have to make this stuff up! Whats even funnier is how many of your retarded lackey readers even for a second considered this to be true. When you can get someone to believe that the president isn’t an American, or that a healthcare bill will kill your grandma, I guess you can get them to believe anything… even this.

I swear before I looked at the website I thought it was a legitimate story. It’s scary when your not sure how far this president will go.

The problem is that every time I try to be you I end up being Harvey.

Re: glitch…

Sounds like the view for the Mobile Version (that’s mobile, as in handheld device, not a city in Alabama, spacemonkey).

The plugin should auto-detect the browser and display it when appropriate. On Safari and Firefox, I see normal theme. On BlackBerry, I see Mobile version.

To confirm, scroll all the way down. Near the bottom, look for a link “Exit the mobile version”

Clicking that sets a cookie.

How did you get to the mobile version? Three possible ways:

1. Did you click a “View Mobile Version” link?

2. Did an admin accidentally set the theme to Carrington Mobile, even briefly? (You wouldn’t know if one did; this is for those with admin access to check memory. It probably didn’t happen, but it’s on the “how did this happen” checklist.)

3. Is your browser set to mimic another browser? If so, it may inadvertantly report as a mobile browser.

How to fix?

The “exit mobile” link I mentioned. Or, clear you cookies, just for IMAO, if possible (Firefox and Safari let pick and choose easily). Clear all cookies (there is a limit over which things act all goofy. Refresh with a cache flush: CTRL-F5 with Windows.

If this helps, great. If not, maybe someone really geeky will chime in.

Regardless, it works for me. And that’s another possible fix: strive to be me.

Oh, my G-d! Is that a semi-automatic copy of your Constitution? Quick! Someone call CNN!

Sorry to turn pedantic, but if the dems cram down this healthcare crapola, I think we will see a waive of states involking the 10th amendment and individuals with cash involking the ‘right to property’ clause in the 5th amendment.

Having read this article I now have to wonder…. Does this mean that the constitution, or certain embarrassing parts of it are….unconstitutional? Is praying within a thousand yards of the Prez out too? Oh, and Sgt Relic I think that swastika is actually a hammer and sickle. From a distance they do look a lot alike.

It’s also an example of early Op Art. If you focus your eyes just right, you can see a swastika.

I don’t know rather to laugh at how awesome this post is, or to cry because its not really far from the truth under this current administration.

HCG – 11pm CDT – looks normal in both Firefox & IE to me. Could it be a temporary server glitch?

The IMAO homepage is not loading normally for me. I am getting a list of the links for the various threads, but no ads, pictures, or text on the homepage. The individual threads are displaying normally. Anyone else seeing this?

OhBummer went to great lengths in criticzing Ayn Rand’s little book, “The Virtue of Selfishness.” That was a mistake. He called attention to a revolutionary book when he wanted to damage its success in the market. Furthermore, he brought attention to her novels — and OhBummer shows up in several places in her novels, “Anthem,” “The Fountainhead,” “We The Living,” and “Atlas Shrugged.” Can it be that Barack Hushpuppy OhBummer, “The Mistake of ’08,” ain’t too bright, after all?

It’s a good thing that most of Obama’s base can’t read, or they’d be really excited by that story, Harvey.
