Since dr moen & tomc so want to vilify conservatives as evil & greedy I thought this may be of interest to those concerned about the truth: http://www.realclearpolitics.com/articles/2008/03/conservatives_more_liberal_giv.html I'll bet it holds true among the membership here as well.
Yea, but the right wingnuts are contributing to "causes" like the Westboro Baptist Church. I just wouldn't consider that as having "refined social consciences." It's more like funding terrorist organizations.
Are you calling all conservatives "right wingnuts". No conservavtive I associate with would even waste their time to spit on members of the Westboro Church....liberals, such as Elena kagan seem to share the Westboro groups' distain for our military, wouldn't you say?
I don't think the Westboro folks care too much for Elena Kagan, after all, she played softball. I think it's pretty well documented that the Westboro Baptist are at the core of the Republican base. It's pretty obvious, isn't it? Who's pro-gay? The Democrats, of course. Who's against issues like gay marriage? The Republicans. Who's more anti-gay than the Westboro Baptists? Other Republicans. I think the Democrats purged the homophobes quite a long time ago. Nobody can seriously dispute that the Westboro Baptists core philosophy is the same as the Republican party platform.
To say the anti-gay issue is the core of Republican beliefs is as moronic as saying pro-abortion is the core of Dem platform.
Retaining the right to kill your own baby is one of the core Democrat issues. How could you even debate that it's non-partisan? Sure as the sun will rise tomorrow, the Democrats support abortion and the Republicans oppose it.
I imagine just as sure as the sun will rise tomorrow , the right will always support the super mega wealthy.. always support the idea that raising minumum wage is a bad idea, always profess that gays are not entitled to the same considerations that "regular" people are, always support "capitalism" over morality. Oh...and of course, God belongs to them. God, gays, guns. Pretty stereotypically defined as well I'd say.
You know, you are right. The killing of our innocent unborn is probably the key unifier that binds 'the Obama" and his liberal minions. What was I thinking?
What are you even talking about? Is it the pills again? I've said this before, I do not have a problem with gay people. I believe in live & let live. It isn't a lifestyle I would choose or wish for my kids but if that is the path one takes to fin true hapiness who are we to judge? But you knew that, didn't you?
You said killing your unborn is a unifier for dems. Just as beating up gays is a unifier for reps. And since just about every medical professional agrees that homosexuality isnt a choice; one can only conclude that you do have a problem with gays since you call it a lifestyle. Like being a beach bum or a clothes horse. I bet you also say, ''I'm not a racist, but....''.
I never said beating up gays is a unifier for reps. Better check your facts again. Then you would be wrong.
I didnt say you did. I was comparing the beating of gays as a unifier for reps with what you said. A response such as yours is one of an uneducated person and youve told this forum time and time and time again, that isnt the case with you. Youve also informed us of your friendship with several doctors. Asked them if homosexuality is a choice. As I understand it; only those that do have a problem with gays call it(as you did) a choice and a lifestyle.
"You said killing your unborn is a unifier for dems. Just as beating up gays is a unifier for reps." This was your quote...I never said the second part of the statement which you attribute to me. Never said it!
Thats not a quote. And it has nothing to do with what I posted before in which you copped out a came up with this silliness. Did I really have to seperate the two lines so a highly educated person could see where one ended and another began? Its always when you have no response, that you remark to the way a post is written. For the record; the first post I wrote was just a reply to your ''no problem with gays'' post.
Somenbody has to. If we were to leave it up to you, it wouldn't happen. craiga isn't capable, because...well, you know. Dr moen seems to have pulled a disappearing act in the face of having his recent postings swatted back by the facts.
