Very open minded thoughts there, Micro.

It's a joke, Gunman.

[Lone_Gunman]

Oh, a joke.

Well, not very funny then.

 

[whoami]

...the smiley.......learn it, use it, love it!

 

[Mark Tyson]

"Only a weakling suffers no criticism."

This is fair enough. There is an active thread poking all kinds of fun at liberals right now. And it's very funny, too. If you dish it out you gotta be able to take it too.

 

[c_yeager]

it seems to me that the prime ingrediant to a joke be that it is funny. maybe next time you'll remember that part.

 

[MicroBalrog]

11. You gotta be unable to laugh at yourself.

6. you have to believe that the only role for government should be to build lots of roads and to grease the wheels of commerce. everything else is socialism.

I think the government needs to stay out of the commerce part, too.

 

[agricola]

11. you have to have an action figure of yourself in some crazy get-up

Micro - kinda sounds like the state of Israel don't it...???

(and yes - I've been there).

 

[MicroBalrog]

Israel is more like Sarah Brady's wet dream.

 

[telomerase]

>9. you have to believe that taxes are a moral sin.

Mortal sin, balrog, it's called a mortal sin. Not being a conservative Republican, I can still believe that one completely... unless you think that I can spend your money better than you? Then let me give you my Paypal number....

 

[seeker_two]

A few points to consider (using your list)...

1. Name a superior nation to the US...
2. If you're a reporter for the New York Times, it is true...
3. Ask Kobe Bryant, William Kennedy Smith, and their unidentified "accusers"...
4. Wasn't there an old story (@2 years ago) about a handicapped stripper who sued b/c her club wasn't ADA-compliant?
5. Only if you believe that you're a monkey's descendant (& I DON'T... )...
6. I believe that gov't shouldn't be involved in commerce PERIOD. And the Interstate Highway System was built more for national security than commerce (why is there a 1-mi. straight stretch every 3-4 miles? Aircraft landing strips)
7. And I thought Israel supported that policy, too...
8. No, but I believe that LYING UNDER OATH about said BJ is more repugnant than winning the Cold War (remember, those countries were supported by the USSR.)
9. Hey, if you believe that someone w/ a gun & a court order can take away the money that you've worked hard to earn, all power to you. Taxes are a necessary evil, but excessive taxation (esp. to pay for unConstitutional programs) have let to a few revolutions...
10. A person values that which they earn. I don't mind helping to fund Johnny's effort to read--IF HE'S WILLING TO PUT THE EFFORT OUT. But I'm against paying my money to schools w/ incompetent teachers, bloated administrations, and classrooms full of kids learing why the white man is evil & how to put condoms on cucumbers. I'm also not eager to fund schools who are forced to keep delinquents in the classroom who disrupt the learning process for the kids WHO WANT TO LEARN and the teachers can't discipline or expel those students.

Does this add clarity to your "joke"?...

 

[Joe Demko]

Lying under oath about a blowjob is more repugnant than winning the cold war. Huh. You don't hear statements that asinine every day.
We supported, armed, trained, and funded murderers. Sub-human slime no different from the sub-human slime we hanged at Nuremburg in anything except bodycounts. Clinton was a fool. Lying under oath about the blowjob may have offended your moral sensibilities, but it in no way compares to supporting such sweethearts as the Talibn, the Shah of Iran, Saddam Hussein, and on and on and on...
Weren't we supposed to be better than the Soviets in a moral sense?

 

[MicroBalrog]

1. Name a superior nation to the US...

The Jews. Some notable names: Moses, Jesus, Einstein...

5. Only if you believe that you're a monkey's descendant (& I DON'T... )...

I do, and I don't believe this contradicts evolutionism. I take the first chapters of the Bible as symbolic only.

7. And I thought Israel supported that policy, too...

After trying negotiation n +1 times...

8. No, but I believe that LYING UNDER OATH about said BJ is more repugnant than winning the Cold War (remember, those countries were supported by the USSR.)

I think Clinton did some worse things...

Taxes are a necessary evil, but excessive taxation (esp. to pay for unConstitutional programs) have let to a few revolutions...

Define "excessive?

10. A person values that which they earn. I don't mind helping to fund Johnny's effort to read--IF HE'S WILLING TO PUT THE EFFORT OUT. But I'm against paying my money to schools w/ incompetent teachers, bloated administrations, and classrooms full of kids learing why the white man is evil & how to put condoms on cucumbers. I'm also not eager to fund schools who are forced to keep delinquents in the classroom who disrupt the learning process for the kids WHO WANT TO LEARN and the teachers can't discipline or expel those students.

Then reform the system, don't throw the baby out with the bathwater.

To be a Democrat you must:

1. believe all of the above is true.
2. believe all problems can be solved by hiring more bureaucrats to create and enforce regulations, distribute money to those who don't earn any, etc.
3. believe all earnings are the property of the government and are best used to solve social problems (see #2) rather than for "selfish" uses like paying off mortgages, expanding small businesses, etc.

12. Believe there's no constitutional authority for taxes.

 

[auschip]

How to be a good Democrat ...

funding.

to read is somehow qualified to teach those same kids about sex.

3. You have to believe that guns in the hands of law-abiding Americans are
more of a threat, than U.S. nuclear weapons technology, in the hands of
Chinese communists.

4. You have to believe that there was no art before Federal funding.

5. You have to believe that global temperatures are less affected by
cyclical, documented changes in the earth's climate, and more affected by
yuppies driving SUVs.

is natural.

7. You have to be against capital punishment but support abortion on demand.

doing something to earn it?????

11. You have to believe the military, not corrupt politicians, start wars.

12. You have to believe the NRA is bad, because it supports certain parts of

of the Constitution.

13. You have to believe that taxes are too low, but ATM fees are too high.

17. You have to believe that the only reason socialism hasn't worked

charge.

18. You have to believe conservatives telling the truth belong in jail, but

transvestites and bestiality should be constitutionally protected and manger

Microbalrog,

Humans cannot survive with goods and services.

There are two basic ways to get them.

Steal them from those who produce them = force and fraud = government.


or


Trade for them by mutual agreement and contract = commerce = Capitalism.


There are NO OTHER ways.


With business and COMMERCE come freedom, liberty and economic well-being.

Left-liberal, morally superior and enlightened and compassionate types look down on business and commerce. But they do so with full bellies, warm and comfortable while knocking Capitalism on their cell-phones in their fancy cars and nice homes -- all the result of crass commercial activity done in the pursuit of profit (Sorry, mods, for the dirty word).


"If you are not a socialist when you are twenty, you have no heart.

If you're still a socialist when you're forty, you have no brains."

(How old did you say you where, microbalrog?)

Are you talking about Howard Dean, the Gentleman who said:

"I believe the federal gun laws we have—like the Brady Bill—are important, and I would veto any attempt to repeal or gut them. The Assault Weapons Ban expires next year, and it should be renewed."

"Repeal the Bush tax cuts, and use those funds to pay for universal health care, homeland security, and investments in job creation that benefit all Americans. "

Then again, I understand that Howard Dean supports the $8 Billion in loans to Israel and the $4 Billion in grants, and is the only Democrat that supports the continued high level of support that we have provided your country. The only thing I wish, is that someone would explain to me how a country can be considered "Sovereign" if they couldn't survive without monetary support from another country.

It's easy to be a liberal when you haven't any money. Wait a few years until you've built a life with your own sweat and labor. And then see if you are still eager to give your money to government rather than start a college fund for your children, buy a new home, expand your small business, etc.
