POLITICAL ISSUES

WHY did the chicken cross the road?

Nice.

[HarveyWallbangers]

A shot over the bow is one thing but .....

I think you are looking to stir people up instead of convince them.

Tex's methodology isn't ideal. To be fair, it seems like you see more of this nowadays. The "your stupid" approach. Kind of strange that Harlan is probably the person that I'd most enjoy sitting down and having a political discussion with.

[texaspackerbacker]

Well well well.

Very Nice, 007 I believe it was one of the 3 Stooges who said, "I resemble that remark".

Nutz, articial ones oughta be good enough for a liberal.

Bretsky (and Harvey and California), I didn't start this thread to reprise the old FYI from JSO. I prefer the idea of NOT having one big conglomeration thread, but having individual topics of politics.

The reason for putting all those issues here, as well as the reason for the admittedly nasty labeling, was kinda like the old joke about the farmer and the mule. He wasn't hitting him over the head with the 2 by 4 because he hated the mule or because that's what made the mule work. He just had to get the mule's attention.

Left wingers/liberals/whatever you want to call them, on ALL levels--from national politicians and media right down to forum flunkies just NEVER want to discuss the issues. If they don't run and hide completely, they resort to whining and ranting about extremism, etc. You never see me or anybody else on our side shy away from vigorously defending Americanism and all aspects of the issues.

Well, it was simply my purpose to put up a side by side comparison of the crap spewed by trash like Obama--which even he himself tries to duck and dodge and avoid discussing most of the time, AND the pristine normal pro-American positions I referred to as "our side". The fact that all of the forum lefties except Ziggy lived up the labels I beat them over the head with only underscores that those sick anti-American leftist positions are the ones that are EXTREMIST--extremist to the point where they are indefensible in any rational what's-good-for-America way.

Here is the deal most liberals believe in a Utopian society where everyones needs are taken care of and funded by the government, Everyone is safe and kept sound. The problem and the reason they don't want to discuss this with you is because they have no fucking idea how to accomplish this! It should just be the way it is, it is easy, no problems, no worries, just make it happen. Sure lets reduce the need for foreign oil, ok how? Well ride your bike to work!

We have a lot of devils advocates here Tex, most of the posters here stand more toward the middle on a lot of issues but then you come along with a firm stance on a certain side of the pendulum and they feel the need to argue with you. They were doing the same to Harlan and his more liberal stance on issues before you got here. The fact is I don't see Harlan as that liberal. Liberal is my wife.

[texaspackerbacker]

Acknowledged, Nutz.

My point still is, though, and this is especially true if whoever you may have in mind are moderates disguised as liberals, rather than the real thing, some of them have truly FLAWED ideas of what constitutes Left Wing Extremism and Right Wing Extremism.

no tex, i've wasted enought time trying to "discuss" politics with you. you always asked for in depth info, and i always gave it to you, with many other posters, only to have you dismiss everything as lies, and try and attack our credibility

and like tank said, i was red at jso. i left for many reasons, but the last straw was when people started to get hacked and have their personal info posted on the forum. but posters like you and tank really made it easy to leave that site and never look back

you were not missed, and at it was a sad day when you showed up here

I heartily concur.

I think Tex's rants have their odd charm, so I'm not completely on board with the anti-Tex bandwagon. But, as with anyone delusional, it gets repetitious and boring quickly. Especially if you fool yourself into thinking you're having a dialogue with someone. I think one Tex rant per month is about the right doseage.

[Anti-Polar Bear]

Glenn Beck (CNN Talk show idiot): I'm a conservative fuck and I hate chicken but I'd fuck one anyday.

I wish CNN, a liberal network, would get rid of that fuck.

[Anti-Polar Bear]

Nancy Grace (another CNN talk show idiot): Where were you, chicken? Why aren't you telling us where you were that day? Go and get run over by a car for all I care!

Did I mention the 3 Stooges?

I don't know whether these pathetic excuses own up to the dirty word, liberal, or whether they are among the ones Nutz had in mind. Either way. it's pretty obvious they have neither the competence nor the courage to even try to defend a cowardly piece of shit like Obama or the incipid positions of America-hate that he and other leftists spew.

Maybe that's a good thing. I STILL haven't felt the need to label anybody in this forum an "America-hater". If these guys or others actually ever showed some balls and conjured up a defense for the indefensible, they might become that.

What IMBECILES like this don't realize is that this isn't about me. It isn't even about them. It is about ISSUES--those things which liberals just can't bear to talk about because they are so horrendously out of tune in a harmful to America direction on.

Tex, it's funny, my Dad (RIP) was a registered Democrat his whole life but was so far from what you call a liberal it's crazy. Some...not all of your, can I call them rants? remind me of him and you crack me up at times. I hope you didn't take any offense to the little chicken funny. I just couldn't resist.

[HarveyWallbangers]

Lots of old-time Democrats that are Democrats in name only. I have some on my Mom's side of the family. Grandparents were FDR Democrat, and passed it down to a couple of my Mom's siblings--even though they might be more conservative than me.

[texaspackerbacker]

007, didn't you notice my comment about your chicken thing--"Very Nice"?

007 and Harvey, I have at least three uncles who were just like that. Fortunately, my dad was enlightened enough to be a Republican, even though he was a UAW member for 37 years.

When I was a kid, I'd go to the barber shop with my dad and hear these union guys expressing these wonderful pristine conservative views. Then election day would roll around, and they'd almost all do what they dilettante union propaganda commisars told them to do: vote for the damn liberal Democrats who weren't remotely close to their own wonderful views.

Nowadays, the same thing happens with blacks--most of whom are devout moral Christians, most of whom love America, and many of whom have competed very well in our free enterprise capitalist system. Yet, come election day, and their overseers on the liberal plantation faithfully deliver over 90% of their votes to the sick America-hating immoral Democrats.

It's a damn shame how that sort of thing happens.

[GrnBay007]

Daddy was big on Unions. I'm a Union member. :P

007, didn't you notice my comment about your chicken thing--"Very Nice"?

I thought maybe your feelings were hurt and you were being sarcastic.
