Great platitude, but that doesn't tell me anything.

If you were president, as several tens of thousands lay dying in agony from a radiologic bomb that was set off from the inviolate "sanctity" of a mosque which was a haven for terrorist organization, and the American people learned that you could have monitored it (but had some halfwit ideology for not doing so), how long do you think it would take for the country to explode in anarchy? The economy to tank? Misery on a grand scale to sweep unchecked through the lives of millions?

Now you guys have to let me into your little pillar thing....does that mean that I'm "projecting guilt"? Or does "5" imply that I'm all five? Just curious since I see we're in a picture debate.

Any of you conservative types ever heard of the Hegelian Dialectic? Yeah, the philosophy on which Marxism is based. Guess you haven't really ever given any thought to how your "follow the party line" logic has Marxist roots.

Thesis + Antithesis = Synthesis

OR

"Capitalism" + "Communism" = "Socialism"

OR

"Republicans" + "Democrats" = "Regulated Freedom"

2 phony, ostensibly opposing positions as a means to further control. If it's not a "conservative".........it must be a "liberal"! There's nothing else, right? If you're not "us", you're one of "them"!

How many "liberals" are pro second amendment and anti-welfare state? What is a "liberal"?

"I would uphold the US Constitution. I would not sacrifice liberties for "security". Anyone who sacrifices liberty for "security" deserves neither liberty nor security."

I have the solution for you Ole ye of worthlessness. You keep brushing up on those 200 year old catchy quote from our forefathers and leave the rest of us to defend the country and reverse the 50 years of liberalism. Because it's obvious you have nothing to contribute, just the same old stale regurgitated lines you and your tiny circle of mal-contents post here as you hinder those here who have something of substance to offer

I'm sorry, but as a registered Libertarian, your views are irrelevant to practical policymaking, so your pseudophilosophical crap has no bearing on this discussion.

I'll add that your view on policies and events from an earlier post are gross distortions of history and policy as well.

Sorry, little boy. You can't have a free ice cream cone, but you are welcome to stand outside, press your face against the glass, and wonder what the flavor of the ability to make policy tastes like.

If you ever have a way to suggest that there is value to your views, you might get a shot at making some - and the only way you can do that is by educating the public in a sensible way - not expecting them to gain it by osmosis, and deciding they're idiots if they disagree.

The economy is not in the greatest shape. The Fed just continues to print up more "money". In my opinion, it appears that they're postponing the inevitable.

and the American people learned that you could have monitored it (but had some halfwit ideology for not doing so)

The Constitution is half-wit ideology?

God-given American Rights are "half-wit"?

Open your eyes. The Globalist agenda is being pushed.

Furthermore, what else can one due to stop terrorism? As it now stands, the airports are "secured", government buildings are "secured", public places are "secured". What else do you want. The elimination of all American Rights.

Oh, there is one thing that could be done. How about sealing our porous borders? Oh, I forget, that won't be done, for it goes in opposition to the Globalist agenda.

I'll post our Pro-UN President's quote again:

We are guided by the conviction that no nation can build a safer, better world alone. Alliances and multilateral institutions can multiply the strength of freedom-loving nations. The United States is committed to lasting institutions like the United Nations, the World Trade Organization, the Organization of American States, and NATO as well as other long-standing alliances.

"Admitting you have a problem is the first step on the road to recovery..."

Chad - I just ordered a round of Kool-Aid for the guys and am awarding each and everyone of them the old "Jim Jones Blind Allegiance Award"

A little Kool-Aid and a 12 step program (which Da Buush graduated from once - but apparantly he's slipped on being drunk with power)- they's be fine in about 40 years

today it is the Shoshones in Navada

I have read nothing on that other then the indians wanted to use land that they did not own. These are the same indians that want to use public lands but cut off the rest of the country to them by supporting greens and socialist groups.

Your version of what the Constitution says is halfwit ideology. Shared by a tiny fraction of losers, in my book.

"I don't get these people. "

BLIND ALLEGIANCE is the only answer -

I thought that is why we had Nuremberg - was to expose those who "just follow orders" of their leaders

Leave it to a comprehensively challenge mal-content like yourself to pick a few sentences out of a speech that was clearly a denouncement of a world body that couldn't lead if it's life depended on it. Take a good hard look at your tactics Mutt Bunch, You're just like the Liberals

Hot damn, we've got a genuine celebrity in our midst. Shirley MacClain, I didn't know you were a FReeper, channeling the souls of all those Founding Fathers, and infallibly being the sole repository and expositor of all Constitutional definitions.

Pardon me for dissing you, your infallibleness. I didn't know that only you know exactly what those men intended.

ROFLMAO
