Whew, THAT was scary!

Well, my census form came, I filled it out and stuck it back in the mail.

Name address, phone#?
How many people live there and what race are they?
Do you rent, or own?
Thank You, have a nice day.

Can someone please tell me what the f**k was so sinister and foreboding about that? Or is Michelle Bachmann and her ilk just a bunch of paraniod jackasses?

Now she's telling people to refuse to pay any taxes. Will she stand by any of these folks when the IRS drags them into an audit, and possibly off to jail? Me thinks not. Will she pay their fines? THAT"LL be the day.

Interesting times indeedy. All of the freaks are showing their asses.

Regards,
Dave

I filled mine out last night too. I answered everything honestly, but couldn't help writing a big message on the back of the envelope; VOTE REPUBLICAN. My wife gave me "that" look.

Ours came today and I agree Bachmann needs to pull her head out.

It still may be too difficult for her (or her supporters) to fill out.

Won't be a next census form. They'll just take a head count at the internment camp.

I kinda got a chuckle.If you're "White", you're white. But if you're Black or Hispanic, good gawdamighty, they seemingly wanna trace yr lineage back to the side of the street in the barrio yr great granpappy lived on...Or which side of the cave in Equatorial Botswana the Evil Slavetraders stole yr great-great-great granmaw from...

I liked the "Other" race selection followed by a place where you could describe your race.

Think about it. At the pace that all of this interbreeding is taking place, pretty soon, the "race" question will be nearly impossible to answer. "Let's see. Grandpa Smith was white, Grandma Smith was half black, half native American. Grandpa Jones was half white and half Samoan. Grandma Jones half Mexican and half Eskimo. So, I am----------------".

Regards,
Dave
