Politics - 1 December 2007

The temperature of the planet has increased about one degree Fahrenheit in the last century. So imagine a summer afternoon when it’s 63 degrees and the next thing you know it’s . . . 64 degrees. Ahhhh!!!! Run for your lives, everybody! Women and children first!

Sorry I just don't get it. Al Gore, Who Flunked out of Vanderbilt University failing five of the eight classes he took in his three semesters at divinity school, says were all going to die because of this Global Warming stuff and LIBERALS abandon all critical thinking like they do when they watch the fake news on CNN & MSNBC.

Afterall the great men of the bible had multiple wives, polygamy was obviously a God-sanctioned thing, the BIBLE has it. Mainstream Mormons don't even practice Polygamy anymore so what gives?

Ok say Hillary gets elected. Do I stop making my own choices right then? Do they assign me a number before they come to take things away from me? Will I still need my alarm clock or will she wake me up and wipe my bum for me to? Will the re education camps in addition to teaching me not to think for myself also have a place where I can get my nails done?

****HILLARY UNPLUGGED******

"We're saying that for America to get back on track, we're probably going to cut that short and not give it to you. We're going to have to take things away from you on behalf of the common good."

(Hillary at a fund raising speech in San Francisco; SFGate.com 6/28/2004.)


"We just can't trust the American people to make those types of choices.... Government has to make those choices for people"

(From the book "I've Always Been A Yankee Fan" by Thomas D. Kuiper, p 20 - Hillary to Rep. Dennis Hastert in 1993 discussing her taxpayer-funded health care plan)

Is strapping bombs to one's self, and such hysteria indicative of what we can expect if Hillary were to be elected President?

I know the terrorists hope she gets into office, so they can do it. But will everyone be in such a frenzy, that we will have to fight it domestically and internationally?

Do we do it because some of us are just bleeding heart socialist liberals?

No. It is not that simple.

I would argue that there are two very good practical reason that we hand out welfare and health care that even the hardest of hardcore cons would agree with if they just stopped and thought about it.

1) We give people just enough money in welfare and health care to keep them from rioting in the streets and overturning society. Remember the mobs of the French and Russian revolutions? The Romans called it "bread and circuses." The knew what they were doing. They kept the mob in check that way, too.

2) It is the moral and right thing to do. It has nothing to do with socialism and everything to do with Christianity. The Bible tells us we are our brother's keeper, whether we like it our not.

Agree or disagree?

"PRINCETON, NJ -- Republicans are significantly more likely than Democrats or independents to rate their mental health as excellent, according to data from the last four November Gallup Health and Healthcare polls. Fifty-eight percent of Republicans report having excellent mental health, compared to 43% of independents and 38% of Democrats. This relationship between party identification and reports of excellent mental health persists even within categories of income, age, gender, church attendance, and education."

Bush wore a freaking ear peice to every damn debate that he had, he rarely said anything that wasnt told to him and when he didnt he was a blubbering idiot. Did anyonec are to notice how Bush worked nicely with dem's in Austin but when he became president he stonewalled them? Hillary CLinton is intelligent and resourceful, confident and respectable. She would be a hundred times better then Bush.

I firmly believe that Democrats will lose in '08 unless they express views that invigorate moderates and "white guys" so left behind in their view of America, by the way, I am a liberal minded person!

The Bush administration's own treasury department stated that if Bush's tax cuts remained permanent that they would only produce 10% of the amount required for the amount of tax lost.

Edward Lazer, chairman of the President's Council of Economic Advisors stated "I certainly would not claim that tax cuts pay for themselves" in testimony he gave last year on the Hill.

So, when are the American people going to challange the failings of the cut taxes election dogma?

Why are they ignoring the original question - Why don't they think the military is professional enough to handle this?

Didn't one of the candidates - it might have been Huckabee, I'm not sure - answer that the reason we can't have gays serving openly is that there are too many Southern Christian bigots in the military?

And people in the audience applauded. Is this an acceptable answer to Republicans and Christians???

Why are people focusing on WHO asked the question and not on the answer?

How does increasing taxes on upper income individuals and creating a national healthcare system solve the problems we are grappling with today?
What about federal fiscal control, illegal workers, jobs in the mid-west, energy, the trade imbalance, the falling dollar, rebuilding infrastrucure, education.
On these issues and many more, they seem to be offering business as usual.
And what about the currently Democratic controlled congress? What leadership are they displaying other than obstructionism?

I have often been told that we never hear from him or about him in the mainstream press, because he is too subversive to the current or dominant government line or policy; and apparently that applies to every US administration going back to the 60's. How can one person be so "right" about everything, and yet be so ignored by the rest of us. Name me another person in history you might compare him too.
