If you are indeed a liberal, then, you don't know anything.
Thank you for providing the words to describe your self-proclaimed point of view. That's such a shame, too, because we do have a Fifth Amendment so one does not have to incriminate himself.
And, oh yeah, the communist comment. That's just too easy.
No. Next question.
The boom of the 90s states otherwise.
And the state shall wither away. Now where have I heard that before?
In other words, yeah, right. Sure thing. Politics won't die until there are no more human beings.
As to your next post, should the welfare state whither on the vine or will the dengration of the state lead to a freshly defined Conservativism, bent on protecting the welfare state? Or have we already enter that time period?
Now, you know you are leading with your chin, right? If you want honest debate, don't ask loaded questions with prefabricated answers. I know better than to engage in such a dialogue because it's absolutely fruitless.
As to your question(s), it was extremely vague. Care to clarify?
Peace. There it is and there it wuz.
Looks like we have a fighter--boxer here...ko-king--champ?
Knock--slap those liberal--libberatarians silly(into...reality/realatarianism)!
Most libertarians would argue that since liberty is inevitable, such invented things as nation-states, the arbitrary borders and common currency that allegedly binds us..., will either adapt or disappear. Are Conservatives the ones trying to prevent the end of the nation state and libertarians the one's who think the end is a foregone conclusion?
I ask only that Conservatives be clear as to what they are 'conserving' and ask the same of libertarians, to be honest if the ends we are looking to achieve.
Reality is relentless---inevitable...good for some--bad for others.
Life choices--BEHAVIOR pretty much determine that...example too!
As a conservative, I say that being conservative should mean "conserving" the Constitution. But conserving this document and its true intent is not the same as saying the so-called nation-state will wither away on the vine.
Now that sounds like utopianism.
"They have developed their own fraudulent synthetic educational system to support and proselytize/perpetuate it. It is the system liberalism is designed to perpetuate."
Synthetic religion--lingo--LAW too...evolution--survival of the chest-fossil thumpers!
The JW's--door to door nazis!
I just remarked, on another thread, how I saw this on a bumper sticker yesterday:
Bush is a punk ass chump
...sort of puts the exclamation point on the paragraph above, doesn't it?
"are you going to do anything if America is attacked" ? ? ?
"SURE I AM" ! ! !
"Well what are YOU going TO DO ? ? ?
(( Bush laughing his head off )) . . .
"THEY ain't gonna LIKE WHAT I'M GONNA DO" ! ! !
also an aqaintenace of mine told me his mother lived through Pearl Harbor and she said . . .
that was nothing (( no disrepect )) compared to how 911 affected her ! ! !
We went to a bloody war with Spain over a coal dust explosion on the ship Maine in the Havanna Harbor.
