Re: Your attempt to shut down political free speech on the Internet
John McCain, you treasonous bastard, I challenge you or any of your traitorous cohorts to find even one thread, one post, one paragraph, one sentence or even one lousy word posted to this web site that is not fully protected by the First Amendment!
And I will extend that to one chapter, one group, one poster or any group of posters on this forum. Name one assembly, petition, letter, protest, meeting or rally convened, filed, submitted, attended or supported by members of this forum that is not 100% protected and guaranteed as free speech or free assembly by the First Amendment!
Your McCain-Feingold campaign finance reform legislation is a treasonous act. You and your cohorts are attempting to subvert the Constitution of the United States of America, the very same constitution that you swore an oath to defend, so help you God! That makes you a domestic enemy of that great document and a traitor to your country. Yes, and Benedict Arnold was a war hero before he turned traitor too.
How dare you even think that you are qualified to sit in the oval office! Ronald Reagan's office! President? Hah! You miserable excuse for a two-bit political hack, you're not even qualified to shine Ronald Reagan's boots. If you do run, I'm afraid you're gonna be at least one vote short. It'll be a cold day in hell before a traitor like you ever receives my vote. And that's a campaign promise you can take to the bank.
You can take your fascist campaign finance laws and the jackbooted FEC anti-free-speech enforcers you are empowering and put them where the sun don't shine. And if this post is in violation of your unconstitutional law, shove it too!
Paraphrased from In the Face of Evil: Reagan's War in Word and Deed:
The Beast never dies, it simply changes form. The Beast has known many forms: Bolshevism, communism, Nazism, fascism. The Beast has had many names: Lenin, Stalin, Mussolini, Hitler, Tojo, Mao, Pol Pot.
The Beast cannot co-exist with freedom. The very first freedom lost is the freedom of speech, then religion, knowledge and the arts. Anything that empowers the individual must be destroyed. The state must control all.
Power to the state.
Power as an end to itself.
Those who speak out against the Beast are labeled extremists, radicals, warmongers. Churchill, McCarthy, Reagan.
The Beast must be contained, appeased. We must have "Detente" at any cost. Direct confrontation of the Beast must be avoided.
Appease him and pray the wolf may pass our door.
Free speech must die.
The Beast never dies.
Even entries that are not overtly political have glaring errors, e.g. the wiki on my favorite novel, Invisible Man.
Forget the fact that it is replete with grammatical and spelling errors, even the purported facts are wrong.
Though Raplh Ellison is seen as a Harlem Renaissance writer by many, the themes from Invisble Man break away from the movement's major theme of social accepatance and hope for the future.
Really?
I suppose you could say "some" consider Ralph Ellison to be part of the Harlem Renaissance.
Just as "some" would consider Richard Nixon to have been the sixteenth president of the United States, and the Austro-Hungarian Empire to have won WWI.
There are some people that believe lots of inaccurate information, but to say that "many" people believe Ralph Ellison was a Harlem Renaissance writer-even though he was merely five years-old when this artistic and cultural movement began, and had published his seminal work of fiction fifteen years after it had ended-is not only misleading, but is demonstrably false.
This is something that anyone who had a copy of the Norton Anthology of African-American Literature could tell you, but it's information that this brilliant Wikipedian apparently wasn't aware of.
I couldn't even begin to list all of the misinformation about the outer boroughs of New York City-in the Wiki about that subject-so I won't.
Anyway, sorry for the tirade.
It just annoys me when people cite Wikipedia articles as if they are authoritative sources on a particular subject.
-good times, G.J.P. (Jr.)
You are welcome to take that gamble.
I'll wager you lose.
So be it. :-)
Lighten up; I made that remark to HER about all the Hillary bookmarks I have. She was replying to me.
And it is a fact that a LOT of newbies do NOT know what went on on this forum before they got here.
So stay home and let the Democrats win, which is what they are hoping for, btw. Then they can fast track us into the hell you see.
You need to get involved and help change the party. That is the way it is done my friend.
Did Mr. Robinson start this website? I had no idea.
ROTFLMAO!
Just in time: a GOOD laugh!
"Free Republic Opinion Poll: How would you vote if it's Hillary vs McCain in 2008?"
Well, clearly it wouldn't be Hilary. It would depend on who the third party guy was.
That's preposterous.
This site is in no way, shape, or form representative of the GOP; in fact, just the opposite.
2006 CPAC Poll:
22% Allen
20% McCain
19% Giuliani
18% Rice
11% Allen, Frist, McCain
4% Owens, Romney, Santorum
5% Gingrich
2% Pataki
1% Hagel, Huckabee, Pawlenty, Santorum
0% Barbour
Hear hear!
I'm also upset at the guy sworn to uphold the Constitution that failed to VETO it. He punted in his duty to the likes of Ginsberg and Stevens.
LOL -- I haven't checked, but I would hope that Hillary's claim that she is named for Sir Edmond Hillary is in her bio --- when in fact, when Hillary was born, Edmond Hillary was an obscure bee keeper.
And yes, I wish I had been on the net then.
Thereafter(as if I wasn't listening enough already), I listened constantly to talk radio and watched MSNBC the instant I got home from work.
It was in response to a comment Howlin made and was directed at no one. Go back and read.
Lots of names get thrown around in the MSM and here, but I'm NOT buying any of it! First of all, the last Senator to be elected president was JFK and his father BOUGHT him that election. He was also a LOUSY president, who was about to lose re-election, which is WHY he was in Texas ( even with LBJ as VEEP, he WAS going to lose Texas!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ), when he was assassinated. Senators has THE worst track record, when it comes to being elected president; bar none!
This far out, way back in '98, nobody, NOBODY was talking about then Governor George W. Bush running for president in '00. The GOP was talking with him/grooming him and NOBODY knew.
Personally, I am making NO grand pronounciomentos/predictions on WHO it'll be, for us, come '08; just who is NOT. :-)
I think H.R. 1606 would have a very good chance of passing if it ever comes up for a vote. Many politicians now have blogs and websites. Only an idiot would tell politicians not to talk about their opponents during an election, anyway. I think this comes from McCain's loss in the 2000 primaries. He's thin-skinned and doesn't like people saying things that could cost him votes, so this is his way of getting payback against the GOP leadership for "costing" him the election.
ROFLMAO!
Nice work.
I second that and will be doing the same as soon as I can.
Thanks....I'm late to the party but came prepared!
BTTT!
Fast rack us into hell --- you said it and you're right!
