I just take personal exception to the idea that my support of a candidate is some kind of racism. Now if you think that i'm lying about this then yeah there is no evidence that refutes her opinion, at least from this quarter.

Basically, the reality is that the left can make fun of, denigrate, bash and try to destroy whomever. They have to - because they can't win in the arena of ideas. So they have to engage in the politics of personal destruction.

They will use race if it benefits them, but woe betide the non-liberal who mentions skin pigmentation, where someone is from, etc. They will use sexism whenever its convenient, but no one else should ever do so. They will use religious persecution but everyone else must be tolerant and accepting.

Look at how the left has gone absolutely ape over trying to find a way to kick the legs out from someone like Cain. They are the one that brings up race. When they were scared of Bachman, they had to bring up her "submission" to her husband. Hillary even endured the PMS jokes when running against Obama.

OWS speakers are interviewed and propound on how all the Jews should be shipped out of the country, and no one says anything. Let a conservative say that a moron like Farrikan should get his own independant nation of islam somewhere way the hell away from the US, and we are intolerant hatemongering racists.

When someone points out the obvious problems with the actions of the liberal media - the only answer (as we have seen here) is to ignore the problem and instead yell how other people/media suck.

And the left can't figure out why their propoganda machines are still losing viewership.....

But I will stand up for what I believe in no matter what. Even if it means my banning for ticking off the old guard.

I just expect my views to be unpopular seeing how the demographic of the board is, hence my flaming references.
Or the irony of a "self hating liberal" playing a war game.

Lets all kiss and make up.

What's so ironic about that again?

Even if you're a total pacifist, you're wise to study the mechanics of war before you decide to hate it. Checking beliefs is pretty smart. I see some people think that it's too ironic to even consider, though...

If you think I'm going to play this game, you got another thing coming:



On a side note, I don't know what's crazier:
You paying attention to MSNBC or knowing Yubba watches soaps. If the right would quit repeating what those clowns say, nobody would even know what they say. If I recall, they have horrid ratings.

What's wrong with watchin my stories ???? Man I miss Dark Shadows that use too scare the crap out of me as a kid. The irony of liberals playing war games is, if they have to play as Americans, or on the allied side, or if they only got SH4. And if you guys haven't figured it out it is us against our governments, you have two sides of the same coin and it is up to us as citizens to keep the governments in check. There is liberals and progressives in both parties so if one team faulters they just hand the ball off to the other team and it's up to us to keep them from score-ing, so some of you folk need too figure out out what side of the constitutional fence you're on. Oh and Magan is about to have puppies or something like that I guess that would be on All My Illidgidimate Children. Like Sands through an hour glass so are the days that we sat behind our monitors

Seems to work both ways pretty well to me. It's who you choose to side with mostly. If I'm asked whether I'm a Republican or Democrat, I answer I'm a voter now to shut them up.

Well the question should be, do you believe in the consitution and what the founding fathers set forth, and that all, and I repeat all, men are created equal under the eyes of our lord. If there is a problem with that, feel free to respond after all it is a free country.

Created equal? Yes. Equal outcomes.....no. Some people work harder than others. Some people make better decisions than others.

True, I made a mistake, god created man, the equal thing I'm a little fuzzy on, but that's where Samuel Colt comes into play, so do tell me, where does any man have the right too rule over, or too enslave another, feel free to respond. And by the way equal out comes by ones decisions does not make, he or she less or more equal than any other, I've made some bone head decisions but that, does not exclude me from, Life, Liberty, and the endless pursuit of Tail and Happyness

How did you quantum leap to that question? If you mean by choosing one party over the other you decide if your for or against the constitution, I find that way too white hat verses black hat. I vote for who or what seems to best follow my interpretation of said document as neither party is very good at following it when inconvenient to their cause de jour.

As for being created equal under the eyes of our lord, that is in the Declaration of Independence.

The Declaration of Independence: A Transcription
IN CONGRESS, July 4, 1776.
The unanimous Declaration of the thirteen united States of America,
When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.--That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, --That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness....
