My thoughts exactly.I guess we should just stop discussing things then, since it is a complete waste of time to read other people’s views.
Oh wait…why are you still in this useless thread?
Strawman, you say??

See, it works both ways!
What a canard! Who’d say such a thing except the Catholic haters?I’ve heard charges that Pope Benedict was once in the Hitler Youth, but I never thought I would see it on this forum.
Christine, when I was in College, I read the Daily Worker to see what the latest “correct line” was. I wouldn’t have discussed it with a Communist, however, because neither he or I was likely to change our minds about our political positions. So reading was fine - debate ridiculous.My thoughts exactly.

Got it. You are here as an observer and prefer not to discuss.There’s a difference between reading and noting the views of others, and discussing them. I’m all for the former.

You have a lot of posts for someone who isn’t discussing.
Well, Rich. I know your decision to vote neither is “in stone,” but I pray that you will open your mind as you read these discussions and consider voting Romney. I know he is imperfect, but he is pro-life and is our best chance to get the economy steered in the right direction.
I don’t think Obama’s likability ratings would be so high if he went around projecting dislike for most Americans. Also, where does that quote about him wanting to fundamentally transform American actually comes from? I hear it repeated all the time, but what is the original source?
Be careful, if you quote Time magazine, you could be accused of being a right wing extremist trying to build a strawman…Strawman, you say??

I would say, as the Time article outlines, the Pope thinks President Obama’s policies kills babies. Is he not now a “Right-wing extremists”?

No, the Founding Fathers created a contract that has an explicit means for adjustments, namely, the Constitutional Amendment process. In the cases of women and slavery, the process worked.…Fortunately, the Founding Fathers created a document that allows for new interpretations of the principles it states. For example, “justice for all” clearly means something very different to a diverse electorate than it does when only white men of property had a voice.
That is the difference between progressives and conservatives. We listen to other people’s voices - conservatives just think they are right all the time.

I like you Scott - I really do. You are probably the #1 reason why I post anything on this forum. I wish you the best - really. Have to say it now while I still have the chance!
If you were working for one of the Commerce banks we did indeed run into each other!Ha! I was in banking during part of that time. Probably we met. I’ll say, this association is a good deal more pleasant than that one probably was!
Then the obvious solution is to shoot all the white men and burn the constitution.
Nope. Not Commerce. They were “Brand X” to me.
Mature and well thought out post.That is the difference between progressives and conservatives. We listen to other people’s voices - conservatives just think they are right all the time.
I like you to. You remind me of my wife. She likes to argue with me, even if their is nothing to argue about. She’ll argue with me about not arguing…
Shooting, burning, and starving people into submitting to their agenda seems to be the way that Progressives ultimately install their agenda.Then the obvious solution is to shoot all the white men and burn the constitution.
Well, all the married women too, because they don’t support Obama either.
Well, then those pesky Cubans aren’t too crazy about him.
And those faithful catholics who aren’t white men. I recall a conservative black woman on here, for example, and more than one Hispanic. Well, and a fair number of religious protestants of various colors and genders.
Lots of shooting and burning. I don’t know the exact number, but what did Bill Ayers, Obama’s patron, have for his shooting count? Wasn’t it 30 million? Kind of short of the full cohort, but it might well operate “pour encourager les autres”. Executing 30 million might do that, all right. I’m not sure what other leftists’ counts would be.
The extreme left is inherently totalitarian. It has to be, because its objectives run contrary to natural human instincts and aspirations.Shooting, burning, and starving people into submitting to their agenda seems to be the way that Progressives ultimately install their agenda.
