One I can't ever forget, and still presses my buttons to this day. Conservatards in 1990s, about then-VP candidate Al Gore: "What is an 'information superhighway' har har! Do you need a car to get on it? HAR HAR"

(Stuff Gore did as a Senator in 1986 eventually led to bill "The Gore Bill" signed in 1991 by G HW "The Good One" Bush that made all of this kind of bullshit possible)

Conservatards in 2000 (and beyond), about then-Presidential candidate Al Gore: "Al Gore didn't create the intarnet! PFfft, HAR HAR"

That CEO's making 2-3,000x the average worker's salary is an economic benefit, but paying for infrastructure and education improvement will destroy capitalism as we know it.

Faux presents "news." Raising the minimum wage would make a McDonald's anusburger cost $4000 or whatever ridiculous sum they claim it will cost. It's cold where I live, so global warming is a lie. If it's a legitimate rape, women's bodies have a way of shutting that whole thing down.
