So I thought long and hard as to whose post should be the first to be skewered by the Green Bored Goobers Team. There was much debate, arguing and gnashing of teeth. But after much discussion it was finally decided that the first post should go to that long time scourge of the Green Bored, Curly Sue who has suddenly reappeared with one of her ever so priceless comments which we here quote for satirical purposes.
. . . the ground you walk on is populated with conservatives who understand how the real world works. We don't operate in the realm of theory like you. Actually, we've seen the results of "progressive" ideas in history. They've been tried before, and they don't work.
"The trouble with our [progressive] friends is not that they're ignorant. It's that they know so much that isn't so." - Ronald Reagan

After a more rational and oddly enough left leaning poster points out that nearly all the liberties she now takes for granted were originally put forth by liberals. You know little things like Life Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness, A 40 hour work week, religious freedom, clean air and water, product safety, Health Insurance and so on and so forth she brings out the big guns
With all respect, you're ignorant of what progressivism really is. I encourage you to read Glenn Beck's Common Sense to learn the truth. You might also check out Jonah Goldberg's Liberal Facism.

a literate Protestant lover of our Republic (not a democracy)
Oohhh! She knows that we live in a republic. She most likely has no idea of what that means but knows it’s true because Glen Beck told her so. She really has no idea that she is in fact a fascist as she would dearly love to live in a Christian Theocracy where all laws are biblically based so things like Homosexuality, Abortion and Atheism would be punished by imprisonment, or better yet public stoning. She’s a real piece of work. Yet curiously her particular vile form of hate speech is allowed to go on unpunished on the ever so Mysterious Green Bored
Needless to say if you haven’t figured it out by now Curly Sue is a rabid fundie who believes the world is 6000 years old and that the Noah’s ark myth actually happened. There is of course no way to rationally argue with this sort of uber-con as the common sense she thinks she is in possession of only works in her tiny little black and white world.
Thus it's quite pointless to dismantle her posts and show her the errors of her ways and that she is little more than a meat puppet for a conservative establishment that continually dangles knee jerk issues like Roe v Wade and Gay Marriage bans like red meat in front of them so that they will continue to pull the lever by anyone who has that all important R by their name. But once they get into office these push button topics get swept under the rug while they continue to cut taxes on the wealthy and placate corporations while simultaneously assuring that real jobs get shipped off shore, wages and benefits for the middle class get abolished as they continue the race to the bottom. But as long as Flag Burning is illegal and Gay's can't marry she's perfectly happy to vote away her rights.

So congratulations Curly Sue, you’ve been voted in as the very first Green Bored Goober. Keep up the good work
