Wouldnt that be like questioning how anyone could be a Republican? It is the party that wants to impose their moral values of all of society and restrict who you can marry, control a woman's reproductive rights, condemn a religion and attempt to limit its practice?

The difference? WAS the party vs IS the party. :)

Old world sayin's have 666c(3) metric exemption ...plus I'm all American now (except for the legal shit).

I'm not an R, but... that's a rather skewed perception.
Thats like saying the Democrats ARE the party of child murderers.

Of course its skewed.

It was a response to a skewed post and skewed view of history to make a point.

This thread almost sorted itself out.

Nope, more dirty laundry.

Hey, it's mostly civil though, I'm cool with it. It is fun to watch Dana and Lookout flirting. If this were a movie, they would have to end up in bed together; it's one of those narrative conventions that just takes control.

I've been hot for that commie tart ever since she showed her Marx spouting mouth around these parts.

The Cellar has fundamentally altered my political beliefs.

It has changed my orientation to right-wingers, and given me a different perspective on the left. I am still a socialist. But I have taken on board some of what I've read on here and that has filtered through and changed the tone of that socialism.

Most importantly, it has altered how I see the political divide. Taken alongside recent studies around brain chemistry ad political orientation, the Cellar has made me believe we need both in society.

That realistion, combined with my experiences of party politics, has removed my life-long opposition to PR (proportional representation) and changed my orientation to the first past the post system and the shape of our Parliament.

That is a fairly fundamental change in my political outlook. And the Cellar has been a significant factor in that.



[eta] I pressed reply from the previous page and missed the comments here. Rowr!

we learned in school that they were! you mean they lied to us??

No kidding. American (fatty) bacon in a chicken recipe? That's pretty American right thar.

Oh no, bacon rolls are an essential part of good old British roast chicken dinner. bacon and chicken are inseparable.

Well shoot.

Can't -I'm a gun-banning freedom-hatin' liberal ;)

Here you go, chicken/bacon mama:

(My friend made those kebabs...she goes all out. I just ate some chicken/bacon and the pineapple. mmmmmm.)
