Our country fought one Civil War. What is the ultimate soltution to the mounting divide between Liberals and Conservatives in this county? Rush talks about working until he converts over the last Liberal. How do you convert over people that aren't concerned about facts or politcal discourse? Are we headed to a complete political and social gridlock?
Welcome to FR.
Dueling?
Zotting
We’re already in political gridlck. The far left needs to be marginalized and I think conservatives winning some elections will do that.
We have to change the schools.
We are headed towards conflict with the extreme left in this country which is out of control.
1, 2, 3, 4, I declare a thumb war.
Liberals get fed up and find another country.
You ask for God’s help.
You bring God and prayer back to America.
Otherwise, THE USA will self-destruct.
We need to stop the raid on the Treasury, follow the Constitution and stop the Federal power grab.
Ropes and Oak trees....we’ve entertained this “progressive” cabal for way too long...time ti hang them high and leave them there for the crows.
I see it as a fight for the middle, which in itself is scary considering what just happened in the last election. If it comes down to who gives the most to those who don’t pay into the system, we lose.
Killing liberals in vast, sprawling death camps, surrounded by barbed wire, with the stench of burning bodies slowly wafting in the breeze whilst the screams of terror emenate from the boxy Quanset killing huts. As you look on, small childrens' sad faces peek from between the strands of the barbed wire while a single, dirty tear rolls down their cheek.
Tell them to go fix Cuba and get back to us when done.
It's the only way to be sure.
It's the only way to be sure.
I’m not sure we will this generation. To take a method from Alenskys rules - we must ridicule them. It’s the only thing that works - facts are nothing to them. I am fairly articulate and at work we cant even discuss cars. If you don’t have a hybrid - you are a loser in their minds. And the fact that I wont buy a union made car incenses them and they foam at the mouth. I live in Michigan and my wifes family all says - cnn is the only news network - Rush and Fox are evil and unions are only looking out for the small guy. They are not changing their minds anytime soon.
I’ve never been able to understand why a Republican contributor is a ‘fat cat’ and a Democratic contributor of the same amount of money is a ‘public-spirited philanthropist’. - Ronald Reagan
One side is generally more capable, believes more in personal responsibility and the rule of law. The other side is generally more dependent, believing that taking from someone who works hard is ‘fair’. The dependent side cannot win ultimately. The mass human suffering the second side can cause is immeasurable but, must ultimately fail. Something from nothing defies not only moral and common sense values, but the very laws of physics.
Nice touch. Shows you're compassionate.
There isn’t one. We have reached the point where the liberals would sooner see the country go to hell than work with the conservatives, and the conservatives feel the same way. As Abraham Lincoln said once, a country so deeply divided against itself cannot stand. We will either become all or almost all of one, or all or almost all of the other.
I am the Original Right-Wing Nazi With A Heart Of GoldTM.
The solution is for liberals to get over themselves and put ideas out in the free market of ideas. Conservative ideas prevail every time.
They come round to our side as certain as day follows night.
LOL!
Notice that stumptalker didn’t post again.
Must be trying to gin up some quotes for DU.
Let them ( the liberals ) make their home in Cuber ( i.e. CUBA ) Fidel will give them all they want, free health care, corrupt government, so on and so on.
I gave him some over-the-top ones. LOL
Like Bugs Bunny: "Ain't I a stinker?"
Nope. The nation must stand as one or fall separately.
I am not sure, but I think that part of it will solve itself.
The reason we have so many leftist morons around is the fact that since the 70s, they have taken over the universities where unscientific courses are now taught. With the crisis, there will be less and less demand for this kind of courses and kids will be less and less indoctrinated...
But they just never leave like bad company.......I wish they would!
Keep looking.....You know not what you say..
Yep you are.
As our society moves farther and farther away from God our society will become less and less civil.
I see you are still watching to get the quote you want.
The same for rabid dogs.
Public schools are beyond change; we have to either get rid of them or get all of our kids out of them.
Sure Dan, I’m waiting in great anticipation for what will come out of your mouth.
Just go ahead and write your money quote.
You can tell your DU friends it cam from FR and they will never know the difference.
Just move on Dan. Waste somebody elses time.
Typical troll move there.
Well its a nice fantasy but it isn’t remotely realistic for the vast majority of Americans.
If you eliminate public schools you get millions of kids who don’t get any education at all. Also there are many millions pf parents I woundn’t trust to educate their kids because they can barely read themselves. Millions of families can’t afford private schools which will lead to federal programs to help them pay for it which will in turn lead to federal meddling in private schools.
Better to return public schools to local control, eliminate the federal money and guidelines in public schools and strip the teachers unions control of teaching away.
Get rid of the liberals. :)
I responded to an uninformed attack. Can’t blame me for that.
Conservatism thrives with an informed public. The more informed people become the less liberal they are. Even people with no political affiliation or who are otherwise apolitical are inherently conservative. Conservative is the natural state of being. So our battle is to educate and inform the public as much as we can. We have made great progress with the alternate media, as evidenced by Hussein’s collapsing poll numbers, and we will continue to build on it.
Ultimate solution?
IBTZ!!!!!!!!!
