One can only wonder at the mentality that says, disparage your friends, and cosset your enemies, as a foreign policy. It's quite possible that Hillarious can actually have not only our enemies against us, but our friends as well.

Good to see you didn't take the opportunity to defend your choice, just put down the other side sck. Outside of your ill-conceived support for alt fuel, you've passed on every critique made of Bambi's policies.

liberals are idiots they run around wanting tolerance by embracing radical Islam while ignoring the radical part that demands intolerance. then run around with their heads high saying you should hug a killer too their great. they believe in higher taxes, more strangleholds on business, and government. They are unable to have a basic fundamental understanding that when you raise taxes, less money comes in. (A Fact that has been proven time and again and obama denied even when showed proof in the debate)

they hold a false belief that if they are the one's that raise taxes America will fall at their feet and lavish the IRS with all the money they can muster. Thanks to whinny democrats like the ACLU you cant say a payer before school but can plant a cross on the side of the road.

(guess they would rather pick on kids than a grieving family)

taken from the ACLU website:


they could care less about the nation as a
ACLU Testifies Before the United Nations
The ACLU testified on December 15, 2008, before the United Nations Forum on Minority Issues, giving specific testimony on minority access to education in the United States

guess they don't realize the troops at the door are obama's now unless they are talking about illegal kids then they should be crying to the mexican government, I'm sure they will be happy to do something.


The Liberals in the ACLU should hop in bed with Peta and all the other left wing fools, move to Iraq and stick flowers in the barrels of the solders guns. That will get-em they will have to put down their guns then.

Last year Peta actually said that we should stop drinking cows milk cause it was hurting them and we should drink human breast milk. THEY DON'T CARE ABOUT AMERICA, THERE NOT ON YOUR SIDE. They got the bull crap polar bear bill passed without a single piece of real evidence while the polar bear numbers were rising.

Maxine Waters wants the gas industry "Nationalized" another word for socialized. They want the gas company Taxed but its OK for Hollywood to make 150 million for 1 weekend, and George Clooney a man who lives in a make believe world should never be allowed to open his mouth about anything but butterflies and fairy tales. That's his area of expertise.

Natzi Pelosi is so quacked out of her brain she don't even think she is on the left anymore, she thinks she is a god.

the Left is in love with the idea of Global Warming, but have never been able to produce a single piece of evidence to PROVE it. I know all this dont seem like much, but think about the polar bears managed to produce 5.00 a gallon gas. As long as they are out there they cant get to the oil, it wasn't about the bears, but the sorry sassed liberals cant see that.

And to think I haven't even gotten into harry reid or chuckles schumer yet.

so yea i like a little more intelligent company in my daily life as well as my fellow Americans. These people want to destroy America, they want to rewrite the constitution and that I have a problem with.

They are using idiots like Darth Vader Ginsburg to push a private agenda in the name of everyone. it was only one man that sued over the Pledge.




your right i am not a liberal not by choice but these are people that wish to do nothing more than take my liberties and freedom away, do nothing more than drive me out of my mind. Unless your hero is Chris Mathews you have to feel a little common sense creeping in when the lies are coming out of these commies mouths. Do you actually think Hitler got elected by acting like the tyrannical idiot the world knew him to be. He got elected with a smile and a promise it was after that that the real man came out.

Left wing idiots want the country ruled by the courts, in California I cant for the life of me figure out why the cowards out there haven't stormed the court building when they ruled the people of the state incompetent and unable to vote the right way not once but twice. But these are left wing idiots that lay down when they get their rights stripped away. its what you can expect from a pretend governor.

Norman Mattoon Thomas (November 20, 1884 - December 19, 1968), and some of us are
old enough to remember him running for President, was a leading American socialist, pacifist, and six-time presidential candidate for the Socialist Party of America.

Norman Thomas said this in a 1944 speech:

"The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But, under the name of "liberalism," they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened." He went on to say: "I no longer need to run as a Presidential Candidate for the Socialist Party. The Democratic Party has adopted our platform."

I forgot about this I have heard it before I am not old enough to remember but it is so true. like I said before Hitler wasn't elected with hatred, he was elected with a smile and a handshake.

sck5-you are not a liberal or democrat, you are just anti republican. Southerwind is quite an orator, but I would like to hear your side of the story. Do you have any justification for your points? I have to say the Rush piece sounds like fanatics, but I have to agree with him; I don't want to live in a socialized america.
Picking individual people out and criticizing them doesn't go very far. It's the policies that are being made that are the real problem. Punishing people for making money by growing their business has never worked to prosper a country. Jealously causes people to try to take what others have earned but it's to their own detriment. My wife's mother is a mexican. Last time I was at a family thing, she said "I voted for obama because I think it's time for all those rich people to suffer"
I thought what an idiot to buy into that. I told her the rich are who employ her, if they suffer you suffer worse.
There has to be government regulation of business. With out it you have no human rights because corporation are profit driven, NOTHING else matters to them. BUT, the government regulation must reward people and corporations for doing the right thing not just threaten them and try forcing them into compliance.

yet its the mentality of the left that ONLY heard the "obama to fail" words while ignoring the rest. launching a attack like no other, Rush is a little off but he is the first to jump on the right for something stupid and people are scared of him. He is the political version of oprah.

its the individual people that make up the whole that's painting a larger picture of the party. You use one's separate actions to paint a overall picture of ones personality. Its human nature and I don't deny it.

But a left wing bailout is rewarding them for being BAD at conducting said business, they need to be allowed to fail. By failing it creates a stronger economy where people don't take chances without a safety net.

at the same time you cant regulate a industry or company to the point that China starts looking good. But that is what is happening thanks to Peta,ACLU, the auto unions and aircraft unions, they don't care what happens to the company and cant figure out the union don't mean squat when the company goes over seas and there isn't a paycheck anymore. I spend part of my time in a town with a strong union force and refuse to work for them cause they spend more time lay'd off than working all the while thinking the union is doing them a favor.

It all boils down to individual greed to me, Everyone wants his or her individual agenda to be the most important thing on the table. That's how the ACLU works and idiot groups like Peta as well but they wind up hurting everyone in the process.


By the way it was the ACLU that sued the clinton administration in 98 because underprivilaged people couldnt afford houses...
