Here are my positions on key issues. What are yours?
life -- 100% pro life, no exceptions ever
guns -- 2nd amendment guarantees gun owenership rights
gays -- I'm for gay marriage
taxes -- cut taxes for all and cut wasteful government spending
military -- I fully support the Iraq and Afghanistan wars
religion -- atheist
war on terror -- we must tereat terrorists like terrorists including waterboarding them
health care -- repeal disasterous obama bill asap, we need tort reform
immigartion -- close borders and deport all illegals
environment -- no cap and trade and global warming is a fraud
What’s a vanity? I’m new.
Put your helmet on
PRO LIFE is #1
At least this one stayed around to play for awhile instead of just posting and running.
Think about it...
Well, I would secure the borders first. Then , I would heavily fine employers who hire illegals. Anyone who is found guilty of knowingly hiring an illegal would face jail time. While all this is going on, I would increase funding to the border patrol ( hiring thousands of more agents, purchasing vehicles, investing in new tracking technologies, building fences and walls etc... ). Legal immigration would continue but with some tweaking to the system. Probably take about ten years to get it all under control. Once the jobs dry up for the illegals many of them would go back home on their own, the others would be deported as they are detained.
That’s true, but I still smell ozone.
So where do others stand? I voted Constitution party in 2008. Anyone else?
Today’s vocabulary term is “social engineering.”
Oh there’s definitely a scent of ozone on the breeze. You can feel it in the air tonight, the zot is about to happen.
Why do you think you should have rights but the little child whose father was a criminal shouldn't?
Do you believe in punishing children for the crimes of their fathers?
Why should I care about your rights if you don't care about the God-given and therefore unalienable rights of the most innocent and helpless among us?
There's nothing "honorable" or "common sense" about your position. In fact, it is dishonorable, it defies all common sense, and it is destructive of America's most fundamental principles.
Welcome. Don’t mind the folks that want you “zotted.” They think they are quite crafty when all they really do is look for recent membership dates. We were all new once.
Why mention it then?
I believe in nothing ... let me tell you all about it!
On the internet, nobody knows your a dog.
:)
I smell something frying....
I felt a tingle.
You are about to learn...
Jersey...IBTZ is in before the zot. Folks think you will be banned.
A Vanity is a thread started without an associated article. Its best to stay away from those for a while.
Your best bet is to read threads (lurking, as it is called) and limit the posts until you get a feel for the place.
Again...Welcome.
Tank
General agreement on most of your items, but two solid exceptions.
First, I am Christian. Reason? Im convinced Jesus actually rose from the dead. I dont know how else to rationally explain the recorded facts.
Second, I oppose gay marriage. Reason? Marriage is fundamentally about sex, and sex is fundamentally about making new humans. The state has a rational interest in identifying and protecting the natural mechanism by which future citizens are created and nurtured. A long period of experimentation reveals that heterosexual pairings are far more likely to generate new humans than homosexual pairings. That’s what marriage is about. Disconnect it from its rational, biological moorings, and you get lots of bad side effects.
Case in point, the Netherlands, where marriage and biology have virtually no relationship, and marriage has therefore drifted into social insignificance, with the tragic result that more and more children are randomly created with no stable home and are dumped on the doorstep of the state, to be raised as good little statists. An unexpected consequence of a most disturbing nature, in light of our present struggle to resist statism here.
