I am simply betting on the stupidity of the liberal left loons.

Maybe not directly, but the introduction to every episode of his radio
show, "A Prairie Home Companion," described the imaginary town of Lake
Woebegon as a place where "all the children are above average."

So you may have come up with it independently, but it's still a gag
most of us heard a long time ago.

Thus proving there is nothing new under the sun.

I don't consider it a gag - I consider it an accurate representation
of the Loony Left.

Garrison Keillor had a radio show, and one of his ongoing schticks was
describing events in a town where "all the children were above
average".  The joke has traveled a lot further than the rest of his
fame, and gets paraphrased by many people who don't know him.

Dan Quayle wasn't joking. He was a complete idiot - on another
occasion he said he wished he'd learned Latin so he could speak the
local language in Latin America.

I don't understand the problem...Dan Quayle like...latinas. Latin girls. Spanish girls.


But yous always have a problem with...definitions.


Lat·in
'latn/
noun

2.
a native or inhabitant of a country whose language developed from Latin, especially a Latin American.

I see Starfucker doesn't know the difference between Latin and languages 
derived from it.

I don't fuck stars, i make stars...

what are you thinking, ...Jeannne?


Latin girls are Spanish girls. They speak Spanish, not Latin.


In other words, Spanish girls don't speak Latin, they speak Spanish.

Latin girls speak...Spanish.


If a guy says he wish he knew how to speak Lating, he really
means...Spanish.

Comprende?

I dance latin. I'm a latin dancer. What does that mean? I dance like the
Romans do???? dumb dumb dumb. estupido!

I gotta go to ancient Rome to learn Latin dancing!


MAMBO!!!! 


I always wondered what the Romans dance steps were like...dancing with
the romans.

Julius Ceasar was a salsa dancer! 

How come I'm finding out this stuff for the first time?

Any Latin dancers out there?

I meant it as a reflection of what I consider the Insane Left and did
not knowingly repeat anything I had previously heard. 

 I actually expect some idiot to suggest this - they think taking
everything from anyone who has earned an income to give it to people
who are incapable of supporting themselves is a solution to something
other than a way to buy votes.
