Dale Gribble did not kill himself.
If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen.

What's the connection with Rusty Shackelford?
If there really was intelligent life on other planets, we'd be sending them foreign aid.

Conservatives see George Orwell's "1984" as a cautionary tale.  Progressives view it as a "how to" manual.

My wife often says to me, "You are evil and must be destroyed." She may be right.

Liberals believe one should never let reason, logic and facts get in the way of a good emotional argument.

"Rusty Shackelford" was Dale Gribble's antigovernment alias.

"Rusty Shackelford" was Dale Gribble's antigovernment alias.


And in one episode it’s revealed he was an elementary school classmate of Dale’s who moved away and Dale used his name, causing all kinds of grief for the real Rusty Shackleford.

64 is too young!
Politicians and bureaucrats are considered productive if they swarm the populace like a plague of locust, devouring all substance in their path and leaving a swath of destruction like a firestorm. The technical term is "bipartisanship".
