I appreciate the humor, but in truth when we understand how liberals think we can best counter their arguments with logic, reason and facts. Take any social program a liberal might want to put in place. They always do so to "solve" a perceived problem, without looking at the cold, hard facts surrounding the issue. Again it's idealistic thinking without consideration of the logical implications of what impact the program would have or in truth if a program is even needed.

Listen to their speeched on minimum wage for example. The liberal line was that low-income earners cannot support a family on minimum wage. While that might be all well and good, liberals don't go past the idealism and look at the fact that only a minute percentage of people are trying to support a family on minimum wage and that and increase in the rate would actually cost some of those people their jobs. Their idealistic goals are clouded by their complete lack of logical thinking.

Case in point, here in Oregon, my dem senator, Wyden, is asking the taxpayers of America to support Oregons schools, state and county employees and roads a highways because we cannot log 51% of our state as it belongs to the feds and they will not allow us to harvest our natural resources.

It seems to a liberal, it is better to lay off county employees, not too bad of an idea, and cut schools funding, etc instead of letting Oregon manange its natural resource, timber. We would be rolling in the dough if we could just log, replant, log replant, they do it in the other 49% of the state with privately owned timber properties.

The statistics are more trees are growing now in the NW than at the turn of the century.

This bill Wyden is introducing has other Senators from Washington and California, on board. Taxpayers of America pay up, because we want to save the trees!!!! And if you do not pay up, so we can keep schools open, we are going to cut the police first!!!
