February 27, 2013, 11:24pm (report abuse)I am 12 years old and I live in my mom's basement. She doesn't like for me to use her computer but I sneak up and use it when she is gone. I really love my blow-up doll. She is so beautiful. I used to claim to be a preacher but someone found out who I really was and told on me. Now I just post here whenever my plastic girlfriend won't let me snuggle with her.

March 2, 2013, 4:03am (report abuse)What is this? Who is congress to force us to serve the government? If I choose to not serve the government, I will not. My children will not, and my grandchildren will not. And I will be damned sure that my great grandchildren will not either. I would rather die than be forced to serve a tyranny like this. I refuse, Washington, to comply with this. Pass it or not, it makes no difference to me. I refuse to be treated as a slave or a pawn under your thumb.

March 2, 2013, 9:15am (report abuse)You appear to be just another of the one-way "GIMME GIMME GIMME" a$$holes who want everything given to them without giving anything yourself.
Your mantra also includes "It's not my job," and "Let somebody else do it."
Selfish takers like you are the real problem, not the government.

March 8, 2013, 3:03pm (report abuse)This clown (Andy Johnson) who claims to be *** and steals other people's identity and throw insults is actually a 12 year old boy living in his mommy's basement playing with a vinyl blow-up doll and a plastic girlfriend. Using so much insults he should be put in juvenile detention. He also uses fake aliases and looks at dirty magazines when his mommy's not around.
Hi Joshie
March 8, 2013, 10:17pm (report abuse)I see your mom must not be home again. Otherwise you wouldn't be on the computer.
You better get back down to the basement. Your "girlfriend" must be getting lonely. Or maybe she's getting jealous of your hand?

March 15, 2013, 6:12pm (report abuse)I am 12 years old and I live in my mom's basement. She doesn't like for me reading dirty magazine but I sneak up and read them when she is gone. I really love to harass other people and play with my plastic doll. She is so beautiful. I used to claim to be a 67-year old veteran but someone found out who I really was and told on me. Now I just post harassments and steal other peoples' identities whenever my mom won't let me read dirty magazines.
Hi Joshie!
March 15, 2013, 11:37pm (report abuse)You know Mom doesn't want you using her computer. I think I will tell her later tonight when she and I are cuddling in bed.
You better be careful or your plastic girlfriend is going to get pretty jealous of your hand. You know how bitchy she can get.

(logged-in user) April 6, 2013, 1:12pm (report abuse)This bill was introduced in 2003 by the same person, Rep. Charles Rangel [D-NY13]. It had 40 minutes of discussions before voting. The House voted against this bill 402-2. Rep. Charles Rangel also voted "nay". I truly doubt this bill will pass.

As for the "hater of disabled veterans and service-member who changes his name due to an identity crisis", often using the name "***", I got an account on Washington Watch and blocked his two IP addresses. This site lost so much trash talk, it became respectable again. Now one my logins, he appears just as "Comment hidden—click to show". I never click on this anymore as I only see hateful, childish comments, not relating to bill discussions. I'm sure there will be another, "Comment hidden—click to show", after this comment.
I thought his name was "Dean" as he used it semi-frequently. Curious, where did you get the name, "Andy Johnson"?
God Bless America, its citizens, service-members and veterans.

April 6, 2013, 11:12pm (report abuse)In reference to my above posting I have no idea what I am talking about here. I often become lost in the fog of my mind. It's an unfortunate byproduct of my other problems.
Since I know nothing about public service I am not even sure why I posted here.
Oh well, back to the fog.
