Government - July 2006

Take away the dictator and give people freedoms and allow the government to take care of a persons basic needs like health care, employment, and inflation, but at the same time allow consumer freedom and control the retail and costs of goods. Also provide jobs to all those able and control wages and taxes, while at the same time allowing everyone a fair chance at all employment positions. There are many more provisions to it but do you think it could work for some of these smaller, third world countries that cannot handle democracy?

Why I HATE liberals...
…and other progressive socialist apostate commies of every breed and ilk.

I am often asked, "Why the hatred for liberals?" To which I answer, "Why not? It’s for their own good." You see, as part of the ‘vast correct wing conspiracy’ it is our duty to hate liberals. It’s right there in the party platform (between the part about Lincoln freeing the slaves and Bush vetoing stem cell research).

In order to even become a republican you must swear an oath to defame and dissemble against all liberal enemies-- foreign and domestic. In our daily (secret) meetings it is stressed that we must pound the left into submission no matter what the cost; no epithet is too strong, no slur too low, no swiftboating too uncalled for.

And there are many many other good reasons to hate liberals. Let's look at just a few of them, shall we?

L stands for Lying Losers who whine incessantly,
I stands for Insipid Insurrectionists who Instantly blame America first,
B stands for Babbling Bolshevist Bumblers who Blame the rich for every social ill,
E stands for Enervating Extremists and bad tempered malcontent mutineers,
R stands for Radical Rabble-Rousing Rebel socialist Revolutionaries,
A stands for Also-Ran Apostate Benedict Arnolds,
L stands for Leftist Libertine subversive athiest quislings.

Another good reason is that they told me to. We all get a fax and email every day which tells us exactly what to think and when to think it. Plus there is the mandatory three hours of Rush Limbaugh 're-educational programming' every day. (Sean Hannity is only mandatory in a few of the more strict sects of the Vast Correct Wing Conspiracy cells.)

More proof? Here it is: If you rearrange the letters in the phrase, "The Liberal Democratic Party" it spells, "A terribly complicated hater!"

What more proof could you possibly need? ...don't worry I have more.

More anagram proof.

When you rearrange the letters in the words liberal and liberalism you get the following:

liberal = bare ill
liberalism = rabies mill
liberalism = lame lib sir
liberalism = liars lib me
liberalism = smear bill i (Obviously it's ok to smear Bill.)
liberalism = lisa limber (Obviously a reference to gross immorality. I think I have her phone number here somewhere...)

Pretend you are part of the U.N. Pretend you are writing a constitution (I encourage EVERYONE to share this question with as many people as you can on other sites).
What would HAVE to be on it? What would you insist on? Make it general, not nation specific. Make it workable, with reasons. I REQUEST (not demand) that people avoid commentary on other's additions. Just post an alternate idea, so we save space and reading effort. My answers sometimes upset people. Who cares! Use my question as a chance to share your view of what should go into an international constitution and bill of rights. I love free speech, but as I am asking, I refuse to add my favorite. You make it!

I came from a post socialist country where they do not allow individuals to be enterprising and gain wealth. After 20 years the state enterprises failed to provide what we need. Now it is open to market economy but lacking in government assistance in many sectors for poor people. US compared to Russia and China has achieved much higher standard due to encouraging individual efforts. Do you believe that capitalism is the best for all countries.

Why don't they give some back? Think of all the homeless, poor and deprived people in this country. There are children going to bed hungry. Why do they want you to send YOUR money when they have so much? Or did they turn into greedy right wingers?

Didn't the Greeks warn us thoroughly of the dangerous of democracy and yet no one seems to have listened.

Good decisions require lots of information and experience, but most American are highly illiterate and have had no experiences beyond their private mundane, barely subsisting lives. Historians debate for centuries the causes and issues surrounding most of the major events of history, so how can a bunch of illiterates who love reality TV, make informed understanding decisions about events occuring in the present.

An older woman I work with, was recently explaining to me that the government needs to start enforcing birth control measures against people who shop in Walmart.

Why??? She hates Walmart and then also, all of the people in there are fat and ugly.

I am not joking. I wanted to slap her head into China, so she could see tyranny first hand.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA !!!!!!!!!

During a discussion about parenting between myself and some friends of mine, one of the other people told us that when her son was born she quit her job and got on food stamps and medicaid because she and her husband wanted her to be a stay at home mom. I think this is EXTREMELY irresponsible and told her so and the other people there seemed to disagree with me. Am I the only one who thinks that's leeching off the government?? If she wanted to be a stay at home mom they should have planned better before they got pregnant instead of relied on government assistance, shouldn't they??

Any elected official is elected to power in order to SERVE the people, much the same way the cops "Serve and Protect". If such is the case, why do we confer such importance (saying Mr. President like Your Highness) to a public figure who is elected by US to SERVE US. This is a Jefferson-like question: Jefferson never delivered a State of The Union Speech, believing that it smacked too much of Royalty; Are we treating our elected officials like Royalty?????

P.S. Don't bother reponding that MR. PRESIDENT is a SIGN OF RESPECT.
