That's not unlike what Jim is saying, as I read it.

Oh, I'm not disagreeing with Jim - I just don't want us to forget who's next on our list ;0)

It's good to hear from you. Well spoken, and a nice reminder for why we all are (or should be) here. Thanks for the great forum.

I'm talking about the Democrat Party machine, its leadership, its major candidates and its official party platform.

OK, that's good enough for me.

Yeah, I guess that's one way to look at it. I'm just hoping it does stop!

And hi! I've been around, I was posting on another site for about a year. I'm taking a break from it now, which is why I'd see what's up on FR. :p And living in Sacramento. I miss the LA FReepers!

Do you support less government or No government.

I believe that theft and coercion are fundamentally immoral.

I believe that a government that operates by initiating theft and coercion on otherwise peaceful people, is fundamentally immoral.

I believe that the founders of this nation, crafted a constitutional cage for the governmental structure they created, that strictly limited it's ability to inititate theft and coercion.

I believe that our federal government has broken out of the Constitutional cage that the founders of this nation crafted for it.

I seek to return it to that constitutional cage.

A government without the power to steal or coerce otherwise peaceful people, would be just fine by me.

" You just don't get it, do you. Do you think you would have a better deal with Gore?"

I'm not looking for a "deal" on my God-given, inalienable rights. If a president won't uphold his sworn oath....he don't get my vote. End of story.

If so, it's a new goal.

Nope.

One step at a time.

Here's what's different. If Daschle was in charge, we would have all sorts of hearings on the Iraq War, the Wilson/Plame affair, Enron, Halliburton, etc. etc.

We also would have a bunch of bills which we would have to block, like an increase to the Education Bill, making us look like meanies.

Also, we would not be able to get our bills (like tax cuts) scheduled, which would not be good.

THAT is why we need to keep the Majority Leader's post, even if Frist isn't as aggressive as we would like.

You were elated with the Lawrence v Texas SCOTUS decision. How does that accord with "limited government" at the federal level?

Funny thing happened today: As I was driving home, I thought about writing the above message, but titled "Are Americans Being Lied To By Both Parties?"

It seems that since clinton, both parties have moved even further to the left. The GOP, as RUSH has been saying, is the 70s democratic party.

Just think...the lefts agenda will be passed with ease now that both parties are moving even further from Conservatism.

Consider the clintonian anti-gunshow law that he and the communist democrats attempted to pass to keep you from being able to buy a gun from another individual at a gunshow. It would also keep you from being able to give your childner, or your wife a gun without going through the background checkout, and the FBI search.

Today, with all aspects of the federal government under the control of Republicans, the Republican Congress is about to PASS THIS CLINTON LEGISLATION!

YOU will be even more restricted and you won't be able to buy a .22 rifle and give it to your child wihtout state approval my dear fellow Americans!

And, this is but one example of how even the GOP has moved left of center.

We are losing the war, dear friends. The God hating global communists are gaining ground. They are about to elminate God from all aspects of public life in our wonderful country. THey are going to take your guns from you in the next few years. They've already greatly damanged your property rights. And soon, you will be required to have a government tracking device in your car. How long until it will be on your body? That is what they really want, you know.

In these last days before the advancement of the communist european union, and the herolding of the UN as the worlds most powerful government, you and I mist take a mighty stand against those who seek to kill liberty, ban God, and socialize America.

Fellow Christians: NOW IS THE TIME FOR YOUR CURTAIN CALL! The stage is set and waiting for you to walk out from behind the curtain and present your God given case for liberty in a very powerful, prayerful way.

We don't have much time left before the global movement to advance communism will have succeeded.

Don't break any laws, but do everything short of that to make a lot of noise and prove to the public that is being mislead that God wants men to be free, and that he has given us liberty that must be maintained even when Satan and his democratic party forces attempt to trample freedom.

Stand tall and take control over that which is around you, and influence all that you can. The war for the control over America is raging. He that is in you is greater than he that empowers members of (D)arkness.

Oh, man, Chad! It would take all night to recount the differences.

Maybe not as many as you and I would like, but....vive le difference!
