But take away their rights to play poker on the internet - and its okay.
Remind me again - WHICH is the party of the "nanny government"?
Seems to me I've lost more rights in the last six years than in the previous eight.

I don't own any guns. I've had more than my "fair" share of trigger time. So, again, which "Rights" (not priviledges) have you lost? Maybe you should go out looking for them! Hitler, Mousilini, Stalin, they were all hardline liberals. Their big selling point? Passing laws that take from the rich and give to the poor. Sounds kind of like the welfare system the dem.s keeping enslaving us with. And that crack about New Orleans? Blame it on Mr. Chocolate City and the moronic governor... Oh but wait! They've been re-elected. So now WHO's the real moron in this? All of those welfare slugs...

Republicans want a "parent government" where choices are taken away from the individual and controlled by the government. They have no problem with the government legislating morality - except in the case of guns.
Democrats aren't much better. They want government not to make decisions for people, but to bail them out (sometimes for life) if they make stupid ones.
The Republicans stifle liberty and the Democrats coddle people under the guise of "liberty".
With freedom comes responsibility - one party wants to stifle freedom, the other relieve us of responsibility. Neither is a justifiable approach.

The Republican Party is not the liberal party thats why the Dems have more rights, or want more rights such as gay mariage and what not. No where in the constitution does it mention you have the right to swindel people out of money it does however mention the fact you should legally be able to posses modern weapons in order to protect yourself.
Family values is more or less what the republican party stands for even if they lie about, but you can't be proven wrong if you never do anything, that is the democratic stand point.
the Dems stand for absolutely nothing but to belittle the republican party. Republicans may fail, but at least they are trying things out, what did Clinton gain more than his waist line?

"Internet gambling cannot be controlled and, therefore, it should be illegal." Harry Reid, Democrat, Senate Majority Leader.
BTW Guns are a right, poker is not.

So you're harkening back to the Constitutional Congress, when the founders first debated and adopted your right to play online poker?
Doh.

I can't figure it out either.
Poker sure isn't the cause of the problem in New Orleans & Philadelphia.
Common sense flew out the window about 6 yrs. ago.

So what's your question? Have you ever heard of the 2nd Amendment of our constitution?
The democrats want a silent majority,so they just take away your 1st amendment rights!

All guns would be confiscated if liberals had their way. The Dems (liberals) want the 'nanny' govt. They want everybody to be on govt. welfare so they can more easily control our lives.
