So. Much. Anger. Does it ever get tiring being a liberal? It seems the amount of hateful anger necessary would just drain a person.
Anyway, we conservatives see through terms like "reich-wing." It's a way for liberals to attack those with whom the disagree without actually going to the trouble of making a cogent argument.
"Racist/poor-hating is as racist/poor-hating does"
Here we see the main fallacy with liberal logic. They often redefine concepts in order to villify their opponents. For example, opposition to affirmative-action policies is most certainly "racism" to the liberal mind. No, racism is believing that someone is inherently inferior based soley on their race. Nothing more.
From the proposition, "If someone is racist, they will oppose this policy" liberals immediately derive the reverse- "If someone opposes this policy, they are a racist." This assumption cannot be made, as any student of propositional logic will tell you.
So no doubt your next response will be a stream of obscenities, or STFU's or whatever. Maybe you'll become so angry your head will explode. Who knows. I'm done with this thread.
I guess I forgot to mention how much I love it when Democrats give themselves to anger and purely emotional diatribes. You, Mr. Liberal, truly don't know any conservatives, as evidenced by your characterization- which by the way, goes along with all the other erroneous characterization that liberals make about conservatives. (Racist, poor-hating, etc...)
I've met many conservatives, and none of them hate the tax system, or think that police and fire services appear out of thin air. And nobody I know wants to disenfranchise themselves from government. Conservatives question the actual returns on the amount of tax dollars spent, while for liberals, the virtue is just spending the money. (In order to feel compassionate and help themselves sleep at night.)
Oh, I love how Democrats love to congratulate themselves on how terribly compassionate they are. Well, it's easy to be compassionate with someone else's money, right?
I can just as easily assert that Democrats wish to redistribute money as a way of buying votes from the disadvanted groups they claim to represent. It doesn't matter that additional billions of dollars has never proven to improve education, or that subsidized housing does anything to alleviate poverty and crime- but it doesn't matter. It's so damn compassionate.
I think you'll find that those rich, greedy Republicans are the ones giving up the most money volutarily to charities. But my guess is that you don't actually know any Republicans, so you choose to make wild generalizations.
Going to see this movie and taking any part of it seriously demonstrates a lack of critical thinking ability, or at least a lack of will to exercise such an ability.
Moore has serious credibility problems. If so many people are enraged at Bush for having "lied" to advance his political agenda, they should be equally enraged at Moore for doing the same.
Like Al Franken, he's faked interviews: http://www.weeklystandard.com/Content /Public/Artic les/000/000/004/127ujhuf.asp
Even left-wing columnist Christopher Hichens calls Moore on his inexcusable lies and deception: http://slate.msn.com/id/2102723/
If you cheer for this movie, consider yourself manipulated by a propagandist. I may not be voting for Kerry myself, but I'd never go to see a movie if it claimed he were buddies with Osama bin Laden. That would be irresponsible.
For me, using the shift key is faster than using the Caps Lock key.
I've even seen some people use the Caps Lock key to capitalize letters at the beginning of sentences, people's names, etc... Drives me nuts.
Once, I called for tech support on a broadband connection (directed wireless). The connection had gone down. He instructed me to pull up my Network control panel and read him the IP address.
I informed him that the IP address was a local, internal IP address assigned by the LinkSys router.
Him: "Just read me the IP address" Me: "Okay. It's 192.168.1.101" Him: "I'm going to try to ping that from here" Me: "Well, you're not going to get anywhere" Him: "Hmm. I can't ping that IP address" Me: "Yeah. I know. I tried to tell you that."
And then some BS about restarting the computer.
Me: "Look man. The light on modem labeled 'Connected' is not on." Him: "Well, I show you connected" Me: "No, you don't."

It doesn't say anything about a candidate's political positions. Period.
If George W. Bush is against open source, then why is his online shop hosted by Apache?

Recent research suggests it won't be long.
