I hope you don't really believe that.:)
Everyone's interested in power...and in wealth. Nor is the quest for justice a strictly partisan affair.
The contrary, however, in mostly true. Partisans, no matter their persuasion, are mostly interested in power and have little concern for justice. The Biblical injunction about beams and motes is made for them.
Of course I believe it. It's an empirical fact. 'Rats are partisans without a cause, by which I mean legitimate cause.
Tell me, for instance, why . . . Specifically, why? . . . in Heaven's name, you think the stupid , the ignorant and the lazy must be given a substantial cut of the proceeds of my hard labor . . . Not generalities, mind you . . . But specifically, what historical precedent illustrates that that is a prerequisite for a peaceful society? Note I only ask for an illustration, proof being impossible.
There is none. There is not even a valid illustration, much less proof. In reality -- what "it" (the theft of hard-earned rewards) REALLY is -- is a prerequisite for disaster. And for this I am prepared to offer a probabilistic "proof," which I'm sure you cannot in support of your position.
And in fact, there is no overarching liberal "cause" at all, except for the cause of satisfying the liberals' own unquenchable lust to ascend to absolute power. As Madame Mao -- one of your most beloved icons once said -- "Although sex is engaging in the first rounds, what sustains interest in the long run is power."
But, I'm sorry to say, you'll get there only over my dead body, LL. And most conservatives think the same way. I know that saddens you and Tom Daschle, but it's a fact.
And you're wrong also (naturally!), about "everyone" being interested in power and wealth. I'm not, for one (Hahahahahaha . . . . How's that, liberalLarry, the first person you encounter after making such a ridiculous claim, disproves it?). I am ONLY interested in being left alone as long as I break no laws -- particularly by leftist scum who want to steal what little I do have for their own corrupt use, and who want to deny me my God-given right to defend myself and my family.
No hard "feeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeelings," though.

P.S. It's best not to refer to Scripture unless you believe in it.
