People don't go to Snopes because they don't want to know the facts.
Snopes is just another cunspirasy by tha libaruls.

T’was the month before Christmas
When all through our land,
Not a Christian was praying
Nor taking a stand.
Why the PC Police had taken away
The reason for Christmas - no one could say.
The children were told by their schools not to sing
About Shepherds and Wise Men and Angels and things.
It might hurt people's feelings, the teachers would say
December 25th is just a ' Holiday '.
Yet the shoppers were ready with cash, checks and credit
Pushing folks down to the floor just to get it!
CDs from Madonna, an X BOX, an I-Pod
Something was changing, something quite odd!
Retailers promoted Ramadan and Kwanzaa
In hopes to sell books by Franken & Fonda.
As Targets were hanging their trees upside down
At Lowe's the word Christmas - was no where to be found.
At K-Mart and Staples and Penny's and Sears
You won't hear the word Christmas; it won't touch your ears.
Inclusive, sensitive, Di-ver-is-ty
Are words that were used to intimidate me.
Now Daschle, Now Darden, Now Sharpton, Wolf Blitzen
On Boxer, on Rather, on Kerry, on Clinton !
At the top of the Senate, there arose such a clatter
To eliminate Jesus, in all public matter.
And we spoke not a word, as they took away our faith
Forbidden to speak of salvation and grace
The true Gift of Christmas was exchanged and discarded
The reason for the season, stopped before it started.
So as you celebrate 'Winter Break' under your 'Dream Tree'
Sipping your Starbucks, listen to me.
Choose your words carefully, choose what you say
Shout MERRY CHRISTMAS,
not Happy Holiday!
Please, all Christians join together and
wish everyone you meet
MERRY CHRISTMAS!
Christ is The Reason for the Christ-mas Season!

"Your first and only Christmas card"
I, like many Americans, was deeply saddened by the reelection of Obama on November 6th. I was quick to be ashamed of America and the people who voted for him and also questioned why God would allow this to happen. Today I started to reflect upon what happened and why. Then it hit me that I wasn't trusting God and He is still in control! Perhaps God in his wisdom knew that Romney was not the right choice for us at this time. Perhaps God in his wisdom knew that whomever got elected was going to face huge problems and why shouldn't Obama be the one to shoulder that responsibility. After all he is the one who has misled, lied to the American people, and has further plans for the destruction of our Country as we have known and loved it. He now has to "inherit" his own mess and can't blame it on someone else. The media would have crucified Romney over the next four years for "ruining" Obama's hope and change plans and blamed him for all the problems. I
believe that our God will show this nation what happens when you allow Godless people to manage the gifts this nation has to offer and He provided for us. I believe He will expose Obama once and for all for the failure he is and our corrupt media will not be able to save him. I also believe that Obama's attitude and treatment of Israel is not looked upon by God as obeying his command and Obama will have to answer for that. We have another Congressional election coming up in two years and maybe we can get rid of some of the democratic critters that occupy Congress today. Maybe in four years we can run a winning ticket for President and Vice President. Maybe when America again suffers serious setbacks, people will realize what a weak and corrupt management team we have and be tired of it. I will not question God's wisdom or plans He has for us again, because He is in control and has always done what's best for us. We are reminded that prayer isn't always answered in the way we would like at the time, but God does answer our prayers in His time and in a way that is best for His children. So, let's keep the Faith, lay our worries at His feet and trust God to take care of us!
My buddy posted this...got a good bunch of people riled up.
My wife has an old acquaitance who likes to send out mass emails of right wing propaganda. She probably gets about 5 or 6 or these emails a month from this lady who she has not actually spoken to in several years. Anyway, after one such email that was particularily full of falsehoods about Obama, my wife send an email back to this lady that said something like, "Hey Lisa, nice to hear from you. I just wanted to let you know that your latest email has been proven to be false and here is a link to snopes that confirms this email if just not true."
The Lady then responded with something like this, "Hey Susie, nice to hear from you too, hope you are well. Thanks for the link to snopes but quite frankly I don't care whether or not it is true. I just think that people should have this information and it is up them to decide what to do with it and that is why I send out these emails. Hope to see you soon!"
This is a 100% true exchange. This lady actually said in print, "I don't care whether or not it is true." I guess I should be floored, but this seems to be more and more typical of the Fox News crowd.
This is what the "Mark Sender as Junk" command is for.
Has this email been posted yet? Titled "67 Years Later"
Starts out "What happened to the radiation that lasts thousands of years?HIROSHIMA 1945"
Then shows a bunch of pictures of Hiroshima after the A bomb.
"We all know that Hiroshima and Nagasaki were destroyed in August 1945 after the explosion of atomic bombs. However, we know little about the progress made by the people of that land during the past 67 years. HIROSHIMA - 67 YEARS LATER"
Then shows a bunch of pictures of the city today looking fancy.
Then it gets interesting...
"DETROIT- 65 YEARS AFTER HIROSHIMA" (not sure why it is 65 years all of a sudden)
Pictures of Detroit looking crappy.
"What has caused more long term destruction -
the A-bomb,
or
Government welfare programs created to buy the
votes of those who want someone to take care of them?
Japan does not have a welfare system.
Work for it or do without. These are possibly the 5 best sentences you'll ever read and all applicable to this experiment:1. You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity by legislating the wealthy out of prosperity.2. What one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving.3. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else.4. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it!5. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them, and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for, that is the beginning of the end of any nation.Can you think of a reason for not sharing this? Neither could I. "
Someone posted this today and I watched it twice and am still in amazement anyone would think this proves/disproves anything. Except that Kirk Cameron really fell off after Growing Pains.
