You say that I am drowning, but where do you get that from? I am pro gun rights, pro less government when the market can take care of what needs to be done, more private schools, and actually don't mind monopolies.
But yes I am a liberal, I care more about human rights, anti-war when there is no reason for it (but for pulling off the kids gloves when we are in war and getting it done in the fastest way possible), education, education, education, truth in the news, ect.
I will watch Beck for you.
But can I ask something of you? Put aside all political ideals and pre conceived notions, and fact check (with the real sources, full quotes in context, where that info came from, everything I mean fully fact check) one of his episodes.
This is the kind of person society is creating these days. We are in serious trouble.
What people that are pretty middle of the road unless it comes to human rights, then they are very much in favor of them? Yeah that is scary for the nation if people actually care about others, but understand enough to let the free market work when it is doing a good job of it.
cracker, you said a mouthful. this is what kills me about guys like hanimmal, they are intelligent thinking people. why would folks that are very intelligent and engaging be so willing to ignore hard facts? they we giving taxpayer loans to a child prostitution ring (as far as the acorn workers knew) and tax advice on how to get away with it. wrong by any standard, biblical, secular or otherwise. and you cant see this as wrong? wow. this is so far off the rail its almost indescribable
Thanks for the complement. But I think that you misread me.
Again I do not care about Acorn. I don't care if they disappear tomorrow, or not. They are not even on my radar. Congress just stripped them of federal money, I don't mind or care. Hopefully it will go to a company that will do a better job, regardless of how people feel that Acorn did (if they feel that they were good or bad it doesn't matter).
Are we talking about the sting operation, or child prostitution? Because those are two different things. I am anti both. But regular prostitution, I really don't give a crap about. It is a waste of our tax dollars constantly hauling them into jail, only to send them back out a day or so later. I say screw it, if people want to get an STD, who am I to stop them?
Because far Left radicals have infiltrated our educational institutions and have been very effective at convincing people through indoctrination to shut their brains off and blindly toe the party line regardless of the facts.
This is such a load of crap. How do you radicalize math? Or science? Or Economics? Or literature? You cannot. You have set facts and laws that work over and over again, and regardless of what it is that you believe politically it doesn't matter. Supply and Demand will follow simple rules, and the 2 + 2 will always bee 4.
Now if you are taking a womens lib class, what do you think they will be studying? You sign up for it, and get out what you expected. If you take a rowing class, guess what they will be going over? It is not hard guys, people may be one way or the other for their first few years, and listen to their friends that say stupid shit like Communism is good, and monopolies are bad, because they once read about government that makes all people equal. But that is about it.
The classes that are liberal by the nature of what is being studied, wow is liberal. It is not the colleges fault that they don't fill classes like how to hate gay people.
The Senate has in fact voted 83 to 7 IIRC to cut all government funding of ACORN. And the video tapes keep coming. And still most of the main stream media is burying the story, which is in and of itself big news.
See "World Net Daily" for good updates.
I don't think you get it.
The only people that care about Acorn is the people that watch fox. Nobody else gives them enough time of day or concern, because guess what? They don't matter. Nobody knew who they were before Fox decided that they were radical ties to Obama (Because he gave a speech for them (*Gasp McCain got support from them before too!)). You that follow Fox like they are Jesus, are the only people that really care about Acorn.
That is why they don't get much press on any other station, because they know unless you are a Fox watcher, you don't give a rat's ass. So they give it what it deserves, very little.
oops, looks like the kids got another office in cali. thats 4 in about a week. i think i see a pattern developing....but of course someone will come on and tell me i must be blind. one thing for sure, if i ever want to start prostituting children from foreign countries right here in america, i will go to acorn for help figuring out all the details. hmmmm, and obama was just one of the main lawyers for the "firm" and often spoke highly of their "hard work and dedication" to the neighborhoods they worked in. no wonder those neighborhoods are cesspools.
One of the main lawyers?
Really where did you find that garbage.
See this is the only reason why people who disagree (gasp) with your stance that Fox is the place to be, care about the issue of Acorn. Because you guys constantly try to connect him like he is the founder of that place. You should fact check your sources sometime man.
