Members motherfunk Posted September 1, 2005 Members Posted September 1, 2005 dude, this is not by George Carlin. He may agree with some of what's said here but he would have said it a hell of a lot funnier and more eloquently than this. http://www.jimspot.net/archives/2003/03/clearing_up_a_m.php
Members lug Posted September 1, 2005 Members Posted September 1, 2005 nope according to snopes: http://www.snopes.com/language/document/carlin.htm
Members Zamfir Posted September 1, 2005 Members Posted September 1, 2005 George Carlin, Robin Williams...couldn't political spinmeisters simply put words in their OWN mouths? If you have to sell it through a falsely attributed source, the argument wasn't worth {censored} in the first place.
Members zachoff Posted September 1, 2005 Members Posted September 1, 2005 global warming is very real
Members ColdFyre Posted September 1, 2005 Author Members Posted September 1, 2005 Yeah yeah... I know it's not George. Kinda sounds like something he'd say tho. After I posted it, I was curious what ol' Georgie was up to so I checked his site... sure enough, there was a message about this very subject. Anyhow, still a damn good read.
Members SA Rios Posted September 1, 2005 Members Posted September 1, 2005 Nice. I agree with every line except the global warming one.
Members lug Posted September 1, 2005 Members Posted September 1, 2005 Originally posted by SA Rios Nice. I agree with every line except the global warming one. Pro Wrestling is fake?!?!?!?
Members SA Rios Posted September 1, 2005 Members Posted September 1, 2005 Originally posted by lug Pro Wrestling is fake?!?!?!? Oh, {censored}, I must have over looked that line. I take that back, I agree with all but two lines.
Members ColdFyre Posted September 1, 2005 Author Members Posted September 1, 2005 Originally posted by lug Pro Wrestling is fake?!?!?!? Hulk Hogan and Lug are my heros
Members lug Posted September 1, 2005 Members Posted September 1, 2005 Originally posted by ColdFyre Hulk Hogan and Lug are my heros We are both have Thunder Lips and are concidered the Ultimate Male. ...flexes beer belly in manly manner
Members sunburstbasser Posted September 1, 2005 Members Posted September 1, 2005 Some would have you believe that there are only Bad and OK Americans. And that all the good ones are called Canadians.
Members Sixgun77 Posted September 1, 2005 Members Posted September 1, 2005 I don't care who said it, I agree with it.
Members niomosy Posted September 1, 2005 Members Posted September 1, 2005 Originally posted by ColdFyre Yeah yeah... I know it's not George.Kinda sounds like something he'd say tho. Not particularly. I think George might agree with a few things on there but I wouldn't expect all of that out of him.
Members thelurker Posted September 2, 2005 Members Posted September 2, 2005 I don't care who said it, I agree with it. +1

Members PrestiaRules Posted September 2, 2005 Members Posted September 2, 2005 Jesse Jackson wasn't part of the solution when he was organizing sit ins to oppose racial inequality and getting thrown in jail etc.? He might seem like a joke now to some people but he put his money where his mouth is a million time before I was even born!! (I am 30) don't Americans already pay the least amount of tax of any of the OEDC? As far as not owning a slave and blah blah..if you want to experience all the amazing benefits of our North American Society you need to pay the piper too. I didn't settle Canada as a mostly English speaking society but I am reaping the benefits as an ESL teacher able to work in numerous locations around the world and live in the top 10% of many of these locations simply due to where I was born ..should I not also have to work towards answering my Country's treatment of Japanese-Canadians in WWII or the situation on many Native Canadian reserves? "My heroes are John Wayne, Babe Ruth, Roy Rogers, and whoever canceled Jerry Springer." ...you were alive in the 20s and 30s to watch Ruth? John Wayne??? who's next on that list Bozo the Clown? Reagan? What about Martin Luther King or Jackie Robinson...
Members megadan Posted September 2, 2005 Members Posted September 2, 2005 That was probably one of the dumbest things I've read in a while.Why do people write this? To justify the existance of themselves and a narrow band of people who happen to have the same particular racist attitudes and political slants?
Members syciprider Posted September 2, 2005 Members Posted September 2, 2005 You're taking this {censored} too seriously.
Members megadan Posted September 2, 2005 Members Posted September 2, 2005 Well, it's not funny at all, so how is it meant to be taken?It's still stupid, either way.
Members Mudbass Posted September 2, 2005 Members Posted September 2, 2005 Originally posted by niomosy Not particularly.

Members niomosy Posted September 2, 2005 Members Posted September 2, 2005 Originally posted by Mudbass No, this doesn't sound much like Carlin at all does it, Ted Nugent maybe, but not George Carlin. +1 Ted might be a bit more outspoken about it, though, but you're probably closer to the truth It doesn't seem like topics George would generally get onto. Besides, he's not likely to say he was proud that 'god' was written on the U.S. currency. He's an atheist
Members thelurker Posted September 2, 2005 Members Posted September 2, 2005 Well, it's not funny at all, so how is it meant to be taken? It's meant to be taken as opinion. His (whoever the speaker is) is as entitled to his as you are to yours. People have as much right to agree or disagree with it as much as they do yours. His opinion is not calling for any form of attack on anybody, nor is he making his point with a lot of loose, vulgar name calling. The best thing about being a person is you don't really need to "justify your existence" to anybody. No matter how "justified" your existence might be, it doesn't really give somebosy the right to name call.

Members Detox Posted September 2, 2005 Members Posted September 2, 2005 I think I know the guy who wrote that! Sounds just like someone I used to work with. He was forever going up to people and responding to criticisms of his lifestyle that no one ever made. Very weird cat.
