Politics - 21 August 2006

I have been ranting about Hugo Chavez for a while on here. All about his election fraud, anti-americanism, anti-freedom, how he supports Iran, etc..

I have also discovered the guy is a major racist:

""'the descendants of those who crucified Christ' own the riches of the world" -- Chavez

So what do the chavez-supporters think of this?

to the government by stimulating businesses, which drive our economy, why are liberals opposed to tax cuts? I am against over spending, but what is wrong with strategic tax cuts? (Intelligent answers only)

On fiscal issues like taxes & funding programs?

On business related issues like government legislated standards, minimum wage, mandating insurance for employees?

On social issues like gay marriage?

On internation issues like the war in Iraq on any involvement we might have in the Isreali-Lebenon conflict?

A woman in a hot air balloon realized she was lost. She lowered
altitude and spotted a man in a boat below. She shouted to him,
"Excuse me, can you help me? I promised a friend I would meet
him an hour ago, but I don't know where I am."
The man consulted his portable GPS and replied, "You're in a hot air =
balloon approximately 30 feet above a ground elevation of 2,346 feet =
above sea level. You are 31 degrees, 14.97 minutes north latitude and =
100 degrees, 49.09 minutes west longitude."
She rolled her eyes and said, "You must be a Republican."
"I am," replied the man. "How did you know?"
"Well," answered the balloonist, "everything you told me is
technically correct, but I have no idea what to make of your
information, and I'm still lost. Frankly, you've not been much
help to me."
The man smiled and responded, "You must be a Democrat."
"I am," replied the balloonist. "How did you know?"
"Well," said the man, "you have no idea where you are or where you're
going.

I swear, I have been called more nasty names, but have seen A lot LESS reasons, thinking, links, or some kind of clue as to WHY-
...I ask a reasonable question, and get called inflamatory names- this is immature and another clear example of poor leadership skills-

first -just stop it-
second - have you read ? the Yahoo Answers terms of Service and community guidelines- because you are in violation (for being vile)
third- your no longer in the "winning" team, cheating, name calling, lying or just living in denial-
the people who know the truth will pick out everything your doing wrong at each turn of the "mile" - throwing a fit is so babyish-
but I know there is a lot of immature people here who tend to make the cooler heads look bad-

I have many right-sided friends who also are very cool-headed and propose a good argument- that is fine by me-

the name-callers are all going to be sighted- I encourage all who agree- right or left, to "flag" those with the vile insults

One day a florist went to a barber for a haircut. After the cut he asked about his bill and the barber replied: "I'm sorry, I cannot accept money from you; I'm doing community service this week." The florist was pleased and left the shop. The next morning, when the barber went to open, there was a thank you card and a dozen roses waiting for him at his door.

Later, a cop came in for a haircut and, when he went to pay his bill, the barber again replied: "I'm sorry, I cannot accept money; I'm doing community service this week." The cop was happy and left the shop. The next morning, when the barber went to open up, there was a thank you card and a dozen donuts waiting for him at his door.

Later a Republican came in for a haircut and, when he went to pay his bill, the barber again replied: "I'm sorry, I cannot accept money from you; I'm doing community service this week." The Republican was very happy and left the shop.

16. Your political theories sound exactly the same whether you're drunk or sober.

15. You're qualified to judge GWB the worst president in history even though the only other two presidents you can name are "Bill Clinton" and "Abraham Washington."

14. It makes perfect sense to you when you demand a conservative speaker be silenced because you consider him "intolerant."

13. You can openly regard blacks as helpless children unable to care for themselves and it's not considered racism.

12. Personal hygiene - Who needs it?

11. You can keep fantasizing that the Jeff Gannon non-story will finally gain some traction even though everyone with any brains gave up on it in March.

10. You can second guess conservative leaders for hours without having to worry about anyone second guessing liberal leaders. After all, nobody can second guess what doesn't exist.

9. It's easy to make time to go to anti-war protests when you rely on a welfare check instead of a paycheck.

I am hoping that either John Kerry or Hillary Clinton will be. To be fair, I would even vote for Mitt Romney, if he's not running against them.

I'm constantly being told that the 911 commission report was a white wash a complete farce with no basis in reality, do you think there should be an independant inquiry?

First we were there until we got the WMD's.
Then we were there until we got Saddam.
Then we were there until they set up an interim govt.
Then we were there until they developed a constitution.
Then we were there until they elected a permanent govt.

Now we're there until Sunnis and Shiites stop hating each other?

That last one has only been going on for 1400 years now, how much longer could it take?

Maybe we just need to turn over Iraq to the Iraqis?

This has become my viewpoint on the expectations I should have when evaluating liberal/leftist policies. Please correct me if I am seeing this incorrectly:

Rather than having my wages in my pocket and having the option of who I should help and/or give $$$ to, the government should assume that I am selfish with MY WAGES, and more of my wages should be FORCEBLY taken from me in the form of taxes and given to the poor (lame, crippled, blind...etc..)
