What did they say? "Gonna put a cap in that fool's ass"?
\_ Card-carrying Republican signing in to say, how inane. I wish more
conservatives would figure out the line between security and
insanity.
\_ Right on. A little more common sense on everyone's part
would serve us well. -op
\_ I agree in part. However, we have to remember how we got to
this point. How has the Federal government accumulated all
of this power and intrusive involvement into virtually every
aspect of our lives. More importantly how has it accumulated
the resources (ie money) to organize such violations.
This irony seems to escape the liberal polity.
The article, BTW, is garbage and provides absolutely zero
information about what happened. Its unreasonable to
speculate without more information.
\_ FASCIST! DOWN WITH WHITEY!
\_ could you elaborate on "this irony" for the more dense of us?
\_ Income tax enacted by Wilson, War on Poverty from Johnson,
Social Security and everything else from FDR, etc. etc. etc.
Liberals created the monster, but both political parties
avail themselves of it. A welfare state is not compatible
with liberty - the founders knew this in the 1700's, and said
as much.
\_ hey are you that guy with the mustache passing
Lyndon LaRouche literature on Sproul? You are
awesome. - danh
\_ Just curious, do you think that the Scandinavians
have liberty? Why or why not?
\_ I don't see why conservatives back Bush. Bush is about as
conservative as Castro is communist. Real conservatives want
US out of UN and US out of Israel, because we need to take care
of our own first. - Real Conservative.
\_ analgous argument for liberals and Gore (or the Democratic
party for that matter). - Real Liberal.
\_ do you regret voting for Nader?
\_ for one, I don't live in a contested state (FL), so,
no. However, even that aside, no, I don't regret it
since I don't think Gore would have done much for the
problems that I feel the country is faced with. I
think its ultimately more valuable for a thrid party
candidate like Nader to gain popularity than to
elect an almost-Republican to office.
\_ isolationism is dangerous. we are a global power;
castrating our foreign policy would be folly. --aaron
\_ unfortunately, what we are doing right now is
constantant expansion of our interest, much like
what British was doing 150 years ago. |
