Speaking of "disflect, discredit and name calling", Victor weights in. Never fails to disappoint.

Did you bother reading my statement?
The question was leading, not an honest question at all. To couch that in the rhetoric of "no insults" and then follow up with insults either is stupid, or is assuming the audience is stupid. I went with the former.

Well you did chime in.......just saying.




I think a major difference is the moral standing one has on spending someone elses money taken at the end of a gun. Plenty of contrarian views in both parties (lefties being pro abortion and anti death penalty) vs (righties being anti-abortion but mostly pro death penalty).


Free association has all but disappeared and took property rights with it.

Even cuter is that you waited an ENTIRE HOUR for an answer before deciding "guess there's no legitimate answers!"

And then you waited a total of THREE WHOLE HOURS (on a weekend) before chiming in with "I'm almost certain that none of them are celebrating veterans day"

Yeah... you were definitely trying to get an honest answer....

Libs hate veterans

True. True.

Maybe his grandmother had it coming.

racist

Just trying to fit on.

Lefty, he has made some VERY valid points here. I personally wouldn't have gone with the personal name calling, BUT you question was riddled with false assumptions, errors, and then you didn't give people time to respond before pronouncing the issue closed.

Last I checked, we were a constitutional republic with three functioning (one barely) branches of government. We just decided to join the rest of the civilized world and provide our citizens healthcare on a nearly global basis (most of them are constitutional democracies too). We have a HUGE debt because for the first time in our history we chose NOT to raise revenue (in fact we cut taxes) during a time of war...the longest and most expensive war in our history.

Finally, to the question of redistribution of wealth. Once you have taxes in place, they will always be too high...pure and simple. Taxes are by definition a redistribution of wealth UNLESS they are done as fees (many are, most aren't). Therefore the issue isn't whether or not redistribution is occurring, but how much is enough...here is the rub...there is no right answer because it will always be TOO HIGH. However, the government should (eventually) pay its bills and should a have a REAL plan to do so...

The real issue here is that conservatives seem to have and endless tolerance for military spending and economic development (I.e. corporate welfare) while liberals have an endless tolerance for social programs (I.e. giveaway programs). The only problem is that the republicans won't acknowledge that the military does need all that money anymore now that the war is over and the democrats won't acknowledge that there is no "peace dividend".

Communism, loosely interpreted, could be a form of government. Socialism is an economic policy. Cuba is a socialist Republic (as in they elect their leaders, kind of). The socialist refers to their economic structure.

Your question (obviously trolling) started out with a unproven premise: "Those who voted democrat are trying to overthrow our government from the existing Republic". This is the equivalent to me asking you WHY you killed my grandmother before bothering to ask whether you actually did kill my grandmother. If you were to answer the question, you would have to 1 - have killed my grandmother, and 2 - admit to it.

Our government, and even our economic policy is largely unchanged and actually bears little to no resemblance to the fake governments you tried to imply people voted to install. Therefore the first premise of your question is wrong. To answer the question at all would require first 1 - that our government (or economic policy, to throw you a bone) have changed and 2 - that the voters actually caused it.

I said your mustache is was good.


Your face not so much. But I'm sure your dead grandma loved it.


BTW I will be using the Chewbacca defense for my client Lefty.

Meh... the mustache eclipsed too much of my beauty. It had to go. :)

CW actually ignored the question. He's nicer than I am.

"Since this form of governmant has never worked anyplace else why do you think it will work here?" is a direct reference to Communism.

What parts of CWs answers suggest he supports communism?

I suppose the question was a little broad... I'm sure the libs voted for different reasons and all... noone can answer for all libs... we should send Howard Stern back out onto the streets and ask them why they voted for Obama...

Legitimate answers not required. They STILL club baby seals.

With bats, they submit them into submission.

you're telling me.
I pointed out multiple ways your initial question was loaded and making ridiculous presuppositions, and yet you haven't tried rephrasing your question into something that is answerable.

Yeah...
You didn't bother declaring victory after 1 hour at all....
Come on, be honest.

OK I give up you wear me out, If you dance long enough you get tired

I guess a moderate response doesn't warrant consideration? They did, after all, decide the election...

Yeah, you will learn, if your politics are a bit to the left of Attila the Hun, you are considered a Liberal around here. I was a moderate Republican, until they ran me out of the party. I am now a Libertarian, though some of my views are a bit to the left, of the Libertarian platform.

It ain't working and it never has (your wi-fi, I mean).

CBO tells us year-in and year-out that the so-called "rich" pay the majority of the tax burden in this country, no matter how you slice it. And the bottom 40 percent of income earners not only pay nothing, but get extra money back they didn't pay in the form of "earned income credit".

Meanwhile, those "rich people" everyone wants to ass-ram a little harder are also the ones creating jobs. So cram it to the rich people. Make 'em suffer. And we'll all clap. Hooray! F-the rich guys! I'm sure they won't respond with anything like spending less, investing less, shipping more jobs overseas, closing businesses and laying off people. We're one week past the election and I've already sat in on two meetings where our corporation is discussing how we're going to handle Obamacare, increased taxes, and upcoming federal regulations. I can tell you the discussions sure as hell weren't about adding faclities, buying more equipment and creating jobs.

Of every 5 jobs that were created last year, 4 went to immigrants & 1 went to a natural born US citizen.
