Probably the best part of that is the addition of SpongeBob. I mean WTF?
How can a show that's set underwater but yet has fire and a squirrel (Sandy) NOT be stupid?

The squirrel lives in a dome and has to wear an air helmet when not in her dome. The other aquatic creatures have to wear bowls containing water when they are in the tree dome. I figured this out at the age of three.
I get that, but the concept of a squirrel underwater is still REALLY stupid.  It also shows contempt for nautical folklore by portraying the Flying Dutchman as a pirate, when the actual Flying Dutchman of myth was a ship, not a person.

Preschoolers are typically not fluent in nautical folklore.

and now we know why not.

There's this little thing called a 'play on words', you see...

I wonder for whom would Oldies vote in the Louisiana 1990 Senate election.
Definitely not David Duke.  I'm not that blindly loyal to my party.

Of course it's stupid. Not that stupid as your posting history, though.
How is stating simple facts stupid?

You're yet to state a single simple fact, son. Keep trying.
Yes, I have I have states numerous facts that you refuse to acknowledge because they don't fit your left-wing worldview.

He acknowledged his mistakes, which were nowhere near as serious as Anthony Wiener's.  Plus, Anthony Wiener once attacked Republicans for supporting tax cuts for "trillionaires," despite the fact that the richest man in the world is only worth a little over $70 billion (and isn't even an American.)

Erhm, no. Weiner was guilty of sending pictures of his members while Vitter actually had sex with prostitutes as a married man.

For the same reason he's still so beloved by Americans in general.  He was young and charismatic, and more importantly, he got assassinated.

It fits the narrative of the young, courageous (right), crusading liberal President, struck down in his prime as he was about to change the world, end the war in Vietnam (right), pass Civil Rights, etc.
But only after the March on Washington made him do it.  During that march, he expressed concern that the demonstrators would "sh*t" on the Washington Monument.

Again, facts are an inconvenient thing sometimes.  I have a very left-wing textbook from my first year of college that even acknowledges that Kennedy didn't act on civil rights until he had to.

While very much not a fan of Helms' social views, I would probably have stuck with him.
This.  I dislike some of his more racially charged campaign tactics and history of being pro-segregation, but I think I would've moved on by then.

So what?  The civil rights movement had long ended by 1990, although I probably wouldn't have realized it by the end of Reagan's first term. Smiley

>fine with supporting Jesse f[inks]ing Helms because racism doesn't matter anymore

Well, what I meant was that segregation had been long since solved as an issue by then.

Look at the white elitist libfags that have been hostile to this young man all because he supports the Republican Party. That why we conservatives refer to your party as the demoRAtS and have little self-respect when we hardly get any from any of you pussies. We may not have any true bitches on this forum but most on here act like bitches instead of being real niggas.

Hey, you might want to calm it down with those awfully naughty words, or your mommy might take away computer time for a week.

Canonizing one person fifty years after his death and another eight years after his is not 'overdue' by any stretch of the imagination.
