Hmmm.... Well I actually agree with Barbara Streisand in this case. A dead Democrat is often better than a live Republican. Think of the kind of country this would be if all the Democrats were dead.
If dead Democrats can vote, it is only proper that you not disenfranchise them and put one of their own on the ballot.
OK...at least I understand you now...tis more conservative to have society to pay for the clean up than to have the individual pay for it...have government take responsibility and be accountable instead of individuals.
I'm sorry sir...but thats what we call socialism...the thing we're all trying to prevent.
Demi you have shown that very little embarrases you. You vote for a party that uphold everything that embarrases the rest of us. Gay Rights/drugs/anti-borders/prostitution/anti-religious morality/anarchy. In one state a LP canidate for governor has 17 charges against him including discharging a firearm while intoxicated. That is scarry, but I am sure you are not embarrassed.
If you are embarrassed by the constitution, then I am proud to be against you and your ilk.
Your interpertation of the constitution is anarchy, ilk away.
No, read what I wrote. I wouldn't vote for a Democrat that was for gun control. They may be elected, but I didn't elect them.
Using your reasoning, I could correctly assert that everyone who voted Republican in the 90's voted for Clinton because they didn't vote for Perot. After all, Perot could have won if the Republicans had backed him instead of the Republican candidate. I guess Republicans are just a bunch of Clinton-lovers, since by not voting for Perot they were voting for Clinton.
Of course. Any interpretation that prevents republicans from stealing away our rights is "anarchy." LOL.
No you don't.
I'm saying Planned Parenthood endorses teen sex. Get rid of Planned Parenthood and make abstinance the norm,and the problem would be basically solved.
Homosexuality spreads AIDs. Get rid of homosexuals by putting them back in the nuthouses where they belong, and maybe we could rid the country of this plague. Problem solved.
Give the parents school choice to avoid indoctrination and allow them to get a proper education . That way they're smart enough to get a job. Welfare would be a thing of the past. Problem solved.
Libertarianism adds to the moral decline in America. Without a sence of moral right and wrong, the Constitution is dead. It will most certainly depend on the meaning of the word "is." After all, lieing is good because there is no concept of right and wrong in America today.
Your party endorses the tearing of the moral fabric that supports the constitution, yet you use that Constitution to push it's death agenda as if you were patriots. No, in my opinion you're more anti-American than pro-American. If you were pro-American, you'd see the value of this fabric. Therefore, your agenda no better than the Democrat agenda you support.
Now do you understand why, in clear conscience, I could never vote Libertatian? Why add to the demise of the American culture that built this nation?
To put it simply,why make a mess in the first place? That way, no one is forced to clean up the sludge left behind.
Let me try to understand this now . . . are you saying that you reject the concept of Liberty the Founding Fathers intended to guarantee to all of us so that big government might have the power to intimidate and punish children for those things you class as immoral and/or improper?
Ouch!
Because, in truth, if that is what you want, then you Should be for legalizing and government regulation of these things. Proof is in the pudding -- on the streets of Anytown, USA.
Ask any kid where to by drugs. They can all get illegal drugs a lot faster then you probably can. Yet, they have problems buying alcoholic beverages. They need an adult to get beer for them.
Children need life-training in right and wrong from their parents, not through intimidation via the guns of government. Part of living free is getting to make your own mistakes. It is under the guise of socialized medicine, etc., that government demands an ever-expanding vote in our personal activities.
Because of all the above -- and much more -- I shall always vote for Liberty and reject government intrusion into any quarter not specifically granted government by the Constitution.
I just figured you had a long string of profanity for me at the start of that quote and were kindly blonking it out for me. LOL...
A (LP) would leave Gay Rights up to the states...no federal lobby or indoctrination...no federal regulations to tell you to show the video "Why Heather has two mommies" in a forth grade home economics class (no public school controlled by the NEA either BTW), no federal regulations to force health insurance companies to view Bruce and his significant others as a "married" couple and cover both of their health insurance.
I'm anti-open borders too...I can't comment here.
What is anti-religous morality for one is different for another...some people think its OK to drink, some don't; some don't believe in using electricity (Amish), some do; some people think prostitution is perfectly fine, some don't; (and if they want a prostitute, legally or illegally there going to get one anyway, if you think its wrong, be faithful to your wife and teach your kids to do this as well...its your right)
The anarchy comment is just a usual term to bash libertarians...I don't do flame wars.
Even if your vote for that "out of line" Democrat gives the majority of the House and/or Senate to all the rest of the Democrats? The same hard core Socialist/Progressive/Liberal extremists who will chair ALL the committees, subcommittees, confirmations, budget/taxing/spendig processes, congressional agenda, etc, etc, etc, etc,.....? Is it your vote that is responsible for the Democrat control of the Senate today?
No. I'm saying right now government should work to change the hearts and minds of the American people and get them thinking moral again. It was the Democrat and Libertarian "love fest" that destroyed the moral fabric in the first place with their propaganda. Now, someone has to fix it before it's too late. It may already be too late, but we could try.
Now, You'll have to find another to use as your medium to push your agenda. Your crap won't work on me. Find another. You're wasting your time.
Not my vote. I've never voted for a Democrat Senator.
