ya know...I see in these forums and in life things that are insane sometimes

people wants to laugh at Bush-isms (I think they are funny too) but don't anyone dare speak of Obama-isms because then the excuses come out of the wood work instead of just laughing at those too

people whine about Fox news but yet they use blatantly biased sources on the other side that seem to be ok as long as it is what they want to hear

people talk about the right wingers, republicans, conservatives...whatever doing this and that....when the other side does the exact same thing!!!! but that seems to be ok

I see nothing but hypocritical things a lot lately and if it wasn't so sad it would be funny



That actually was the point I was trying to make with the movie clip ... and to add a little humor to the sad situation.


I'm still waiting for some one to answer my question about who decides what I can listen to and what qualifies them to be that superior


Liberal, in modern politics, actually means totalitarian or progressive. They aren't interested in freedom, they want to take away your freedoms with which they don't agree. What car you drive, what food you eat, what news you watch, what radio programs you listen to. They want to involve themselves into your every day to day activity, because they don't care about you personally, they just want power.


Quit generalizing, I'm a liberal and I don't give a crap what you drive, what you eat, what you read or watch..

I've pretty much said that before myself. a lot of them seem to want freedom for all as long as it's what they believe in.


Individuals on both sides can be accused of the very same thing.

My sister is (what I think)is a true liberal. she and I (I'm more conservative myself) both can see that others have the rights to things whether we agree with it or not, as long as it's legal.

we both believe in the constitution and upholding that


Exactly! Conservatives are for preserving our existing liberties, Liberals feel that more liberties are needed. They agree on making the changes in our existing framework. The progressives seek "change" by "remaking America". It's really a scary proposition. Don't let anyone fool you, silencing dissent will always be on the table while progressives are in charge.


You really aught to have a good look at what conservatives want these days. If individuals want to control one part of your lives, individual conservatives want control of the other.. again, generalizations.

I personally like change and am not afraid of it, though there are some changes I would not agree with, but that doesn't mean I will get my way either. I accept that.

I am not sure why but this thread made me think of this clip. It is only a few seconds long.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SkzV5AIK8iM&NR=1
oH COME ON MAN didnt 8 years of Bush teach you anything? In 8 short years our country was taken to its knees and we used the republican formula, less taxes war and borrowing. We are now bankrupt and your try to blame the Dems? This is rich.


What is rich is that your comment would claim a knowledge of my education, ability to reason, politics, and my perspective of history.


psst...it's the I'm right and your wrong theory :tongue:


Pssst, thought you agreed both sides are pretty good at the same thing, Rose? Have a change of heart tonight?

Oh, it's absolutely true for most elected Democrats and probably true of many of the "liberals" in these forums.

The principles of Liberalism as it was founded are listed below:

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

Every Leftist policy I can think of violates at least one of those principles.

Fairness Doctrine: Individual Freedom, Private Property, Economic Freedom

Abortion: Human rights, Equality, Rule of Law

Higher Taxes: Private Property, Economic Freedom

Health Care Reform: Equality, Rule of Law, Individual Freedom, Private Property, Economic Freedom

Cap and Trade: Individual Freedom, Private Property, Economic Freedom.

Let me break down one example: Abortion. Abortion law ignores the fact that there is a debate in the scientific community over if a fetus is a human or not. Until the debate is settled, it is a potential violation of human rights, equality and Rule of Law to allow or perform abortions. If we aren't sure that a fetus is a human, then we must err on the side of caution or we lose our humanity as a nation. For us to be so blase about potential murder actually makes us guilty of murder. To summarize: If a fetus is a human, then it's human rights and right to equality and the Rule of Law trump a woman's Individual freedom to not be pregnant.

Liberal progressives founded this nation, with the goal of making a country that could change by simply changing the laws, while having the freedoms of the people securely protected by the constitution. Progressives of today want to remove freedoms or deny freedoms to certain people. If you don't believe me, compare the Democrat's party platform to the principles of Liberalism.

Sure, there are Republican progressives. Lots of them in fact. The laws against sodomy and alcohol are examples of conservative progressives. Those are laws of the past, hopefully to remain in the dustbin of history. Today, the greatest threat is from leftist progressives.

Fox is truly disgraceful. They made up a fake story about muslims in pakistan raping a 13 year old girl just because she was a christian...yet posted the girl's name and picture in which she was wearing a head scarf. when i emailed them and called them out on it, the story mysteriously vanished off the site.

The war in Iraq, gave them more of Individual Freedoms, Private Property, Economic Freedom and Liberal Democracy. I really can't see how anyone could debate against that. They are now subject to the Rule of Law, which they weren't before. They have equality now, the girls can go to school or hold jobs. And human rights...Saddam was a well known violator of human rights. How did you think those principles were violated again?

Iraqis are better off under our occupation? Not everyone would agree. This is pretty disturbing....

Those who support the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan are either racist and do not admit the truth or they are ignorant and stupid to say the least . There is a difference between right and wrong . These two wars are 100% WRONG .

I forgot about this Vid thanks for posting Boo. It looks to me like the average Iraqi is far worse off due to our occupation but alas how to get out of that mess?
