L-I-B-E-R-A-L

L- lies...a liberal can only tell lies and spin the truth

I- idiots..it's well documented that most liberals are idiots,etc: Nancy Pelosi

B- berate..they being Libes love to berate ANYONE that asked them a question that they cannot answer (which happens all the time i may add)

E- egos..living for the camera and more worried about how they look in front of the camera instead of the people that voted them into office

R- rants..that's what 90% of them do on a daily. Usually, how they are getting treated unfairly and how everything is soo wrong in this country

A- ***..we all know that most Libs happen to be an A S S OR
Atheist..bc, heaven forbid that they may believe in something higher than obama. But, if it's life or death situation I bet the first thing that you Libs would do would be praying...lol :)

L- Losers..this is what's going to happen in 2010, can't wait :D

Hope that I clear this up some :)



You sound like a small bratty child that didn't get what he wanted. Maybe if you weren't so focused you could see the lies and spin from both sides and not just the side you particularly dislike.



Hey now...bratty no but saying that I'm smart...Thank You ;)
I dislike both sides equally and as you get to know me and in some of my past posts that you will see that I rip on both sides. (Maybe, not equally as I should but enough to show that I'm "Fair and Balanced") I just get fed up when the same talking points get thrown out there with no common sense or intelligence to at the very least try to back it up. Guess that you can say that I'm playing devil advocate pitchfork


I don't find that fair or balanced, there are still some good people on both sides of the isle, though hard to find people willing to find common ground because the fringe of both sides are doing all the screaming.

You can't get away with calling yourself and independent either, because one can tell by your views that you lean heavily in one direction, just as it's easy to see which way I lean.

Dismissing everyone for what some do isn't fair or balanced. Try to remember that we are all putting out talking points whether they are ours or regurgitated from media sources. The point is we all have a different world view. I'm a liberal I won't see everything you say as particularly useful to me nor what I say will be particularly useful to you. That doesn't' mean that if under certain circumstances we might see eye to eye on something else.

If you demonize me as a liberal, I'm going to want to do they same to you, depending in my mood.. grin. So we have a choice, find common ground or fight it out. Here most days it's conservatives against liberals.

So your tax dollars and mine continue to be funneled into ACORN coffers despite the recent move by the congress to cut off funding

Fire Prevention and Safety Grant Goes to ACORN

Posted by: Michele Bachmann at 3:45 PM

Pretend for a second you work for the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), and you have a certain amount of federal grant money to distribute to fire departments and first responders throughout the country to enhance fire prevention and fire safety. In Louisiana, you have several fire departments applying for funding --in fact, more than you have money to disburse. You would think actual first responders would have precedent over, say, ACORN? Wouldn’t you?

Well, apparently, that makes too much sense for the federal government when it comes to fire prevention in Louisiana.

According to the Washington Times, "nearly $1 million in Homeland Security funding typically earmarked for fire departments has been awarded to ACORN." The Times goes on to say, "It was one of only three such grants issued to the state and made up almost 80 percent of the firefighting money earmarked for Louisiana...."

Thankfully, U.S. Senator David Vitter (R-LA) is all over this and has already requested that the grant be rescinded and given to someone with "expertise in this area."

It's not like there was a shortage of fire departments applying for the funding. As the Times reports:


"One such group might have been the St. Tammany Parish Fire District No. 3, which applied for a $120,000 grant to purchase smoke alarms for low-income families after a January fire killed four children in a home that had no working detectors.

“’We wanted to buy smoke detectors to spread to homes all over the community to prevent that from happening again,' Chief Charles Flynn said in an interview Tuesday.

"'I have no problem with not getting a grant, I've lost grants before,' said Chief Flynn, one of the fire officials who complained to Mr. Vitter in a letter.

"'My issue is ACORN in New Orleans. Their mission statement says nothing about fire safety or fire prevention. It bothered me that ACORN got $1 million and there are so many smaller and bigger departments that have a need for that money.'

"The Monroe Fire Department was the only squad in Louisiana to receive a grant and will be awarded $192,000. The Louisiana State Fire Marshal's Office will receive $62,000.

"ACORN received $997,402, slightly less than the maximum allowable grant of $1 million. A total of $35 million was available for the grants project to fire districts across the country this year."

The announcement of this grant came after House and Senate votes to cut ACORN off. But, it just goes to show you, the House and Senate voting to cut off funding to ACORN is nothing but a show until the President either signs it into law or he uses his authority to bar ACORN from federal programs and funds. The money is still flowing … and apparently it’s flowing from even the most unusual of sources.http://townhall.com/blog/g/c2cf4fb1-d2d0-4e88-bf0a-90563d01d7cb


http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2009/oct/07/firefighters-lose-large-grant-to-acorn/


Voting to stop funding was for political affect only. Try cutting off funding when they have actually been convicted of something in the courts. Republican governor's gleefully told their constituents that their state would cut off funding. They thought they own constituents might never notice that their state never even got funding for Acorn.. it's all politics. Looks like those that voted for cutting off funds really do think we are stupid.. sad.

He became president in my opinion because he didn't make a fool of himself at every turn, like McCain and Palin did with such ease. I found myself really embarrassed for them at times. I couldn't believe how far they would go to try to bring down Obama, instead of focusing on what they would do to help the country, they did all that same old divisive crap they thought worked for Bush. Well ya it worked for Bush but many of us remember just how ugly that all was too. People were fed up with that kind of divisive crapola.


Well, you can give the media the credit for that or you can give credit to obama camp for being the first ones ever to ulitize the media and the internet and the youth movement. You can almsot say "right person,right time" kinda of thing. And you have to see that it was a tough mountain for ANYBODY to climb after following Bush. Really, it got to the point that he (being Bush) was sooo hated that McCain or any republican for that matter that was getting re-elected wanted Bush to support or even stand next to them...lol
That's was an edge that oabam cherish...shoot he still does ;)


The republicans can't blame bush for the election, they have to blame tired old strategy of division. They used the same old exhausted issues of gays and abortion and then threw in socialist and every other mud slinging tactic they would find.. they blew it, and will again for the same damn reason.

Let's face it, the republicans thought there was no way Obama could win, they also thought why try a new strategy when the one for Bush worked. You know the divide crapola. Yes Obama was a organizer, but the right was so busy putting down organizers they didn't bother to realize just how good Obama was at organizing. They were so focused on throwing crap out there and hoping something worked, they didn't bother viewing themselves from another point of view. Republicans are still kicking themselves for the glaring mistakes they made. The media did try to tell them they were getting way to out there, but they wouldn't listen.

I doubt anything I'm going to show you is going to change your mind. However, you can watch her interview with Katie Couric if you'd like. In my opinion, it does not show her as being vice president material.


Seen it. I think it shows someone who felt she was being put into a corner with unfair interviewing tactics. Was Obama asked what magazines and newspapers he reads?

I think relying on a single interview as an impression that someone is stupid seems a bit ungainly.

Obama is ten months into his presidency and shows absolutely no understanding of how economics work from a Keysian or Austrian school and I don't call him stupid. That's 10 months of evidence. I call him crooked and question his motives, but I wouldn't call him stupid. Even though he is the first president who has refused to release his college grades...just saying...


The difference is that Obama would have handled it with far more grace, instead Palin had to act like the poor little martyred victim. Oh they were so mean to me. Why not just say I prefer not to answer the damn question. I might have had more respect for her than the lame a$$ answers she gave. She was answered very direct and simple questions and couldn't answer them, period. She had many interviews, not just that one, she also said many many things on the campaign trail. Do you assume liberals didn't watch all the campaigns? Or all the interviews.

Your being asked to google, we already know what she has said. You already know our opinion of her, so why bait us, just go do your own research.

Please don't pretend you aren't calling Obama stupid because you are not using the specific word. You don't like Obama, we don't like Palin, not biggy, it's to be expected.

And who the heck are you to call anyone dishonest when you obviously are not aware of all the things she has said. I don't think she's stupid at all, I do however think the way she handled herself was pretty lame, and I do think she's a manipulative fundementalist right winger, who learned pretty quickly that you can say almost anything you want, lie or not and make more money spewing BS than actually sticking to a job.


Really, I respect your P.O.V on everything but, since we are speaking "honest" (tongue and cheek) I'd say that even you must admit that Palin got trashed badly through out this campaign and that there was never any reason in the world to bring her children into it either. And you have to also admit that she was held back by the McCain people sooo much that people started to think that she had no creditablity bc of the McCain camp. That's who I actually blame and not so much the liberal media. McCain basically spoon fed them by refusing to let her go. And being fair here...as I have mention in other posts that she didn't answer the most direct of question wisely.And it did make her look like a fool whether if it was edited or not there was no excuses for answering some question the way that she did.


Ok I can accept that point of view even if there are things I disagree with. Such as, her being trashed. Taking on Palin was an direct insult to the women that voted for Clinton. Mccain thought that we would be so stupid that we would take a woman no matter how we got one as long as women were represented. BS. Typical old man out of touch thinking. Second, she got bashed because of the lame things she said when she was given free run. They held her back because she embarrassed those behind the campaign. I watched McCain's body language at one interview and I swear if they have been alone, he would have read her the riot act for the dumb *** things she said right in front of him.

From lipstick on a pig to the dumber things she just let rip thinking the only people paying attention where the fringe in her own base. That's not a particularly bright. Palin and Joe the plumber aren't doing the republicans a favor, they are just making them look more like the radicals they have become.

The only response that I can reply with...actually more than 1 :wink:
Palin is the only person that can bring a crowd close to whatever obama can do on a bad day. And IF it weren't for Palin NOBODY would have shown up to the rallies for McCain...he was a boring old fart. On top of that she brought in alot of money for the republican party. Like it or not she is a cash cow for the party so that is whyI am confussed as to why in the world would ANY republican politician would move against her. Even run against her would be damaging bc she does have a following. Also, please keep in mind that obama was running for president since 07' I believe and Palin only had a couple of months.


Well considering the damage she did to McCain in that short period, it's a damn good thing she didnt have more time. As for him being boring, gotta give ya that one, he was truely boring, but she didn't do him any favors.

She brought the far right nutcases and the fringe out in number, yes, but that is what was their downfall. people were so fired up it didn't matter if the things she said were out and out lies, she represented the nutcases and those who wanted their power to continue.

The crazies made for some entertainment but they also made the party look like mean spirited buttheads out to win at any cost. That is why my republican friends voted for Obama. They thought McCain has snapped.

Palin appealed to the fundementalist crazies, and all the rest that didn't like Obama for whatever other reasons. She brought down the McCain campaign faster than McCain would have done it alone. I watched every thing non stop of 2 years, there wasn't much I didn't see happening. Hell I didn't watch anything else on tv for those two years.

Bottom Line, Palin is clever and manipulative, and frankly using the republican base to rack it in. If I were a republican that would piss me off.

I look at it this way. We were gonna get screw no matter what so, we had to pick the vice that hurt the least ;)
Also, I do find obama a very intelligent man but, when you see everyone giving him a past on so much you almost have to root for the underdog. The only time that I even remembered him getting bashed some was against Hillary and that didn't even last that long.


People bash Obama here in the forms all the time.

Yes, true but that's the forums and not the media which is watched all over the world. He became president basically, for all the passes that he got.

Yes and I made my choice. When it was clear that Clinton could not win, I focused on MCCain and Obama, Obama won out, not just because I found him more stable in personality and very intelligent, but because he didn't waver and he did'nt engage in the kind of uglyness that the McCain Palin did..

But the way to only quote the last remark in a post if that is what you are referring to, just remove all 'everything' above the area you want to keep, 'except' the very first quote tag [ quote ] Then respond after the last ending quote tag [ /quote ]

I agree. I'm cracking up reading this thread. I thought Palin was a breath of fresh air. So much for the left supporting women. ;)






Im a black woman, I did not feel obligated to support Sharpton when he run, nor did I feel obligated to support Palin's irrelevant winks which came off , to me at least, as very condescending. I find it kind of insulting that in this day and age people are expected to support someone else because of superficial things like gender or race or political association instead of supporting who is the best candidate.

Yes, the best candidate. And between the choices that we were presented (not good ones from either side) we need to look at the most qualified and that was the McCain/Palin ticket. As I do agree that we shouldn't just go with a person bc of religion,sex or political assocation bc that is why we are were we are today. Until we can get over that it will continue to be the same, day in and day out. The never ending cycle :(


I appreciate that. I dont agree with the implication that obama is elected for being black though, nor that Mccain Palin was a better ticket. I felt OBama and BIden were better candidates. OBama being healthy and young and a fighter. I found him to have relevant understanding and logic about politics , both national and global. His answers seemed to come from his own brain and not something someone fed him. He seemed to have had RECENT and relevant accomplishments and genuine understanding of how the middle class in this country are living. Biden, although very outspoken, seemed to be equally current and relevant and able to Handle himself. I liked Mccaiin as a person but all I saw him run on was his ANCIENT history as a military man. I did not see an understanding by him of any current national issues not involving the military. I also was concerned that with his health, the VP candidate could be very likely to lead the country and when i Heard SARAH speaking,,,initially great. After her initial introduction at the nationals though (with a speech others wrote,,but she delivered brilliantly),,everything fell apart for me. SHe did not seem to truly know what was going on outside of Alaska. She didnt seem to handle herself very well without being handled. She seemed another potential my way or the highway bully like Bush and possibly equaly as vapid. And when she appeared for interview with Mccain speaking for her,,it sealed the already evaporating deal for me. I definitely, like many people I believe, chose the better candidates.


I never said that obama was elected solely bc of his color or even implied that either. Maybe, that one wasn't directed to me :) But, as for everything else, I'm sorry but I must disagree...to a point. Obama hasn't done anything yet and yes I realize that he hasn't been there long but like Mr.Biden said we don't have the time to teach as we go (not exact words but, I'm sure that you remember) The only thing that obama has done as of today is reverse many of his own discisions,get involved in matters that had nothing to do with him, do as much over exposure of himself as possible and lean very,very hard left with his dealings with congress. As for Palin you have to blame McCain himself for that one. He and his campaign people never gave her a chance and kept the kid gloves on her way too long. I saw some of those interviews as well and didn't feel like they went great whatsoever but, at the same time I give her a ton of credit for dealing with the abuse that she recieve without snapping. Anybody else in their right mind would have quit a long time ago. And to make fun of McCain and his "Ancient ways" is laughable considering that Biden has more time than McCain himself. Just bc, Biden took the train to work made him an everyday guy...lol. He'd probably get lost if he drove on his own to work ;) And finally, obama being the everyday guy that know sthe middle class is not correct considering that he was and some say that he still is the commmunity oraganzer that served the poor and NOT the middle class in a minority neighborhood. So, how doe sthat make him able to understand people everywhere? How is working in poor hoods help him with the middleclass that happens to employ many of those people? What make him understand foreign policy so well when he was in Cji town most of his time serving. Oh the thing about McCain dying is funny bc that really holds no water when Biden has more medical issues...just saying :)



I can agree to disagree. I am sorry if I misunderstood your statement about us being where we are because of peoples superficial allegiences and thinking you were talking about OBamas race. AS for Mccain, I was not at all laughing at his health or his service. I commend him for his service, but going on what he SHOWED and SAID in his campaign, he didnt show me any reason to vote for him. I think OBama served several years helping people in CHicago but I dont think that is all he did at all. We can google websites for both Obama and Palin to find their accomplishments, I am sure they both have plenty in specific areas and it depends upon which areas the voter puts significance on. My statement about MCCains health referred to my concern for a possible Palin as president and the fact that, whatever the reason, I wasnt SHOWN nor did I hear any reason to feel confident about her abilities during their campaign.


See, this is where I can spin this and say "but MsHarmony, if obama is the least qualified between himself and Biden why would it make sense to vote for obama then?"
You are literally telling me that you voted for a vice president instead of voting for a president.This is why we (being the U.S) is in the **** hole that we are currently in bc, everyone voted for the least qualified man. I rather roll the dice with McCain the more qualified person than a rookie that has zero experience in politics to begin with...


I used to have some respect for McCain years ago, but whether you like it or you don't, I voted for Obama because I found him level headed and intelligent, and he didn't engage in the childishness divisiveness that the McCain campaign engaged in. And for other reasons as well.

how does one group making a new Bible hurt others???? just don't read it. we aren't seriously suggesting banning this are we?


Maybe they want to have a book burning.


that is the sense I get sometimes. IMO not a very liberal attitude


I think Rose hits on something of an important point. The modern American Liberal isn't a liberal at all.. The modern American Liberal, best exemplified in the person of Barack Obama, sees the Jeffersonian liberal ideology as an impediment to his quest for power. Obama gave an interview back in 2001 where he characterized the Constitution and Bill of Rights as a charter of negative rights, one that outlined pricipally what government "couldn't do to you" rather than what government "must do on you behalf".

The Jeffersonian Liberal felt the purpose of government was to champion and uphold individual rights by restricting the power of government. He understood that a government with too much power tramples the rights of the individual.

The modern American liberal seeks to expand the power of government in order to "make things fair". This is in direct opposition to the ideology of the Jeffersonian Liberal.


that's what I've said in the past as well. I know it's not all liberal because my sister is what I would call a true liberal. but from what I've seen from some people....they are only liberals when it agrees with their stance on things. I've said that before and I'm sure I'll be saying it in the future


...and only liberal when it comes to spending other peoples' money. :angry:


No, you are wrong there. They are liberal when it comes to sex and drugs also.


BS, conservatives are quite good at that also, they just hate getting caught at doing things they tell other people they shouldn't do. I'm a liberal, I don't spend what I don't have. I don't buy things I don't need. I can't stand drugs, and frankly I could care less about sex. Quite generalizing.

For pete sakes, where did you get the idea that anyone wanted to ban this new bible. People should be concerned about it if they intend to make it a text book for public schools, but no one is talking about banning it. You don't even have to read it to be concerned that changing it's wording to make it fit some conservative ideal, is not cool.

all very interesting... there are actually plenty of places in the bible where 'translation' of specific words are often debated. One kind of has to go with their God given common sense and their gut to figure out the most likely meanings from the content of the story surrounding it. It would be wrong to change the bible for the intent of supporting one side or another, it would be fine though to translate it (as people have already done hundreds of times) from its original text.


The fact that it has been translated so many times makes figuring out likely meanings useless when looking for facts, no? First why would anyone assume that any of the bible is fact anyway? Written by man then manipulated by translation.. YOu say it's wrong to change the bible, but it's already been done hundreds of times.

laugh they aren't my leaders or the head of my faith. no one is


What is your church?


doesn't really matter. since their are so many different denominations...there aren't set leaders of the Christian faith. the reason there are so many churches is because of different interpretations of the belief so how could they agree on a leader?


Just asked...

Modern "liberals" are actually progressives with the goal of shifting power from the people to the government. When Liberalism was founded in response to feudalism, it was founded on the following principles:

Human Rights
Equality
Rule of Law
Individual Freedom
Private Property
Economic Freedom
Liberal Democracy

How many leftist policies don't violate at least one of these principles? If not directly, then they violate them through negligence and indifference.

But yeah, I saw that on another thread. I disagree with the project and suspect it might be a troll created to discredit conservatives and Christians. I have never heard a Christian suggest altering the Bible, such an action would be antithetical to anyone who accepted the Bible as the word of God.


I'd say it's amazing what you don't know about the heads of your own religion, but I can't really say that because it would have been true of myself as well except for the past 10 or so years when I started paying attention to what the religious right is up to.

You might want to pay more attention, this is not a troll it's a fact and it was discuss briefly on the news today, but I am hoping it's looked into, though I won't hold my breath, because people tend to see them as a select bunch of wackos, but it's much deeper than that.

I really don't know how Palin sleeps at night, knowing some of the things she has said during and since the campaign. It's hard for me to believe that so many people believed the things she said. But they are the ones that will read her book and believe it as well.

I doubt she is a writer at all, she doesn't need to be with a ghost writer does she?

Dude, Obama is a Commie. And while your at it, can u tell me who George Carver, Alan Keys, Jerry Curry and Booker Washington are/were? Without looking them up? Do it, I'll be so impressed you just don't know. Maby you can shed a little light on how the Obamanation of Desolation's terrorist buddy thinks it's peachy to kill off several hundred thousand Americans in, "re-education camps", in order to bring the rest around. Scary FACT.


What's scarey is that you believe it.
