Politics & Government - 4 June 2007

I hear liberals refer to an anti-American protester as "brave" and "so strong" when they say my President is a murderer or planned 9/11. Since when is a dirty, unemployed hippie burning an American flag a sign of bravery? This isn't North Korea, Iran, or pre-liberated Iraq. Nothing will happen to these people, yet calling America a fascist country is still considered inspirational by liberals, as if the idiot doing it is risking life or limb. I've heard libs claim Rosie is brave for her comments about what "really" happened on 9/11. I heard libs say Michael Moore is brave for showing an anti-American film. This is a sign of character strength for liberals? What if someone said "I disagree with Bush, but respect the democratic process that elected him." Would that be a sign of weakness to liberals because the person didn't mock America or burn a flag? Libs should visit Walter Reed and see what strength really is. Fighting honorably for a belief is bravery libs dont understand.

Check out what this death row inmate had to say:

"I know I'm not innocent," said Knight, who believes his appeals have been exhausted. "They think they're killing me. They think they're punishing me. They've already punished me. I've already had 16 years of punishment. They're releasing me. They're letting me go. That's helping me out. That's the way I look at it."

How much tax money would be saved if marijuana was legalized and monitered by the buero of alchohal, tobbacco, and firearms? How much money would be saved if marijuana is decriminalized (decriminalized is different from legalized).

In terms of Bush's place in history, I think he'll be remembered among the greatest presidents including George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Ronald Reagan, and a fellow Republican by the name of Abraham Lincoln. Now, it's impossible for me to list ALL Bush Accomplishments with such a short amount of space (and time), but I'll list a couple of things this great man has done.

1) Bush has reestablished good Christian Values in the White House, and America at large (Lord knows we needed it after the Clinton administration).

2) Bush has made us safe from terrorists through his audacious military efforts in Afghanistan and Iraq.

3) Bush has continuously fought for Middle Class Americans by cutting taxes. A move that also saved the Economy!

4) Bush has raised educational standards for our kids by starting the "no child left behind" program.

I can go on and on with Bush's accomplishments. There are too many of them to mention because he's one of the best Presidents Ever!!

I just answered a question from a person who was so ill informed they must have thought welfare programs were part of infrastructure. I say this because they asked why conservatives were against taxes on infrastructure and called them socialist?

Maybe I'm not a real conservative (by their definition) because I'm not against improving infrastructure. I'm also not against HELPING someone through a hard time, but I don't want to take them as dependants permantly..

I mean, they LOVE money and war, drive gas guzzlers like there is an endless supply of fuel, make fun of liberals and dance like they are drunken sailors on the sweat of the people who worked creating their wealth. This applies to the rich in general, including democrats. But the republicans have a caste system which make them feel entitled to be among the elite, weather by murder and displacement of people and resources through war, they will get what they want...the rich get richer and the poor get poorer! They slither to and fro, barely walking upright!

We all know, of course, that Republicans outnumber Democrats by a 5:1 margin in the military according to the Liberal Militarytimes.com. We also know that Republicans tend to be real men and Liberal men tend to be effeminate. We also know that the Iraq War has had unusually low casualty rates--lowest of any American ground war. And, finally, we know that 65,000 died in Vietnam, nearly 20 times that in Iraq, and that there were many Democrats in the Vietnam War due to the draft.

So, if Dems were fighting in Iraq, how many soldiers would we have lost? I say it would be 5 to 6 times more--right? Around 20,000 to 25,000 instead of 3,500.

WOuld we be further along in the global war on terror if we had engaged Saddam , rather than deposed him? In hindsight, he was very effective at keeping terrorists out of his country...Al Qaeda and the rest have entered since he was removed.

From: Islam_delenda_est:
"The Democrat Party has been hijacked by the extreme left. It consists mainly of seditious weasels"

THAT reminds me of:
"Acuse others of what you do"- Karl Marx.


Lest you forget, rabbid fundamentalists and gun nuts who like to hate moderately liberal fellow Americans do not a mainstream make.

Is that why so many are fed up with politics?

Is that why the far right is in rapid decline?

GW Bush claims that if illegal aliens pay their fine, that this bill is not amnesty. If I steal a car, and pay the fine and do the time, do I get to keep the car? Can I rob a bank, spend the time and keep the money?

So why is it that Bush thinks that illegal aliens can break our laws, pay a fine, and keep the spoils by being allowed to stay here?

I have been trying to find out on what details did Bush go into Iraq for. i mean come on there were no terrorist from 9/11 from there and if he really wanted to spread democracy why not go to Burma where the have put a democratically electecd leader under House Arrest for over 20 years now. The Iraqis were safer without us. We lost too many good men and women out there.

Did you find it disqusting that Hillary credit her husband with the economy during his administration when the deficit was growing until the Republicans took over the Congress & Senate and eliminated the wasteful spending, clamped down on welfare and dead beat parents and put the budget in excess.

Sorry Bush and the last Repub congress did not continue this trend but for the Dems to take credit for something they did not do and did not want to do and voted against to now take the credit for it.

We do need traditional Repubs back in Congress & the Senate to manage the exorbitant new taxes the Dems plan to impose on us.

We cannot continue to support and fix all the problems in the world. The taxpaying citizens are being ingnored, used and insulted. This is not what we elected them for.

I want to know how originally did this phrase get put on the money, who's idea was it, for what reason, and what steps were physically and/or legally taken to do it.

Second, if the text of the First Amendment of the U.S. Constitution states: "CONGRESS SHALL MAKE NO LAW RESPECTING AN ESTABLISMENT OF RELIGION, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances" then why is there any mention of deity on our money to begin with and why is this phrase still on our currency? Isn't it basically against the law?

I read an article about one of the recent speeches Hillary gave. She talked about her village theory again and about shared prosperity.

The article included these quotes, which I found interesting. What do you think?


Soviet dictator Khrushchev once said, "We can't expect the American people to jump from Capitalism to Communism, but we can assist their elected leaders in giving them small doses of Socialism, until they awaken one day to find that they have Communism."

Norman Thomas once said, "The American people will never knowingly adopt Socialism. But under the name of 'liberalism' they will adopt every fragment of the Socialist program, until one day America will be a Socialist nation, without knowing how it happened."
