Inspired by ryhming slogans and giant puppets, liberals sometimes congregate into groups known as "protests." The purpose of these is unknown.

hilarious

Nice flame though.

From here. BTW, Mr. Stone is the person who was featured at the Civil Rights in time of War symposium I attended last year. These are the last 2 of 10 items. The linked article has all 10 items.

Quote:

9. Liberals believe government must protect the safety and security of the people, for without such protection liberalism is impossible. This, of course, is less a tenet of liberalism than a reply to those who attack liberalism. The accusation that liberals are unwilling to protect the nation from internal and external dangers is false. Because liberals respect competing values, such as procedural fairness and individual dignity, they weigh more carefully particular exercises of government power (such as the use of secret evidence, hearsay and torture), but they are no less willing to use government authority in other forms (such as expanded police forces and international diplomacy) to protect the nation and its citizens.

10. Liberals believe government must protect the safety and security of the people, without unnecessarily sacrificing constitutional values. It is liberals who have demanded and continue to demand legal protections to avoid the conviction of innocent people in the criminal justice system, reasonable restraints on government surveillance of American citizens, and fair procedures to ensure that alleged enemy combatants are in fact enemy combatants. Liberals adhere to the view expressed by Brandeis some 80 years ago: "Those who won our independence ... did not exalt order at the cost of liberty."

Lefties want to take YOUR hard earned money and hand it to some worthless street scum who should actually be turned into solvynt green. Lefties undermine this great country's effort to gobble up oil - err, I mean make the world safe for freedom by uttering words of criticism about US foreign policy. Lefties are more worried about some dead Iraqi baby who probably would have grown up to be a terrorist, anyway, than they are concerned with Halliburten's annual profits. Lefties believe in global warming and are trying to undermine big business on the premise that this fairy tale is actually true. Same with other environmental issues. By time the last tree in the rain forest is cut down, we'll all be dead. Let the the damn younger generation worry about it. If the lefties would get out of the way, this country could become what it aspires to be - a cartel of international corporations and powerful special interests who run the world for their benefit. There would be no EEO, no civil rights, no ADA laws, and darkies and women would return to their rightful places in life. Damned lefties! Why not just call 'em what they really are? Red Commies!

Ask UG. Ask Maggie. Ask any number of people here. Anyone left of extreme neocon is a traitor to the country. Logic or compassion doesn't enter into the argument. Compassion is for the weak. Patriotism is for the gullible. Poor people are inherently lazy and could be millionaires if they felt like it. The elderly living on Social Security should have invested their $6.00/hr they got working as a janitor all their lives in blue chip stocks.

I just read a terrific essay on another board that touches on this very topic. Here's the link: http://www.iidb.org/vbb/showthread.p...72#post3883672

It starts off with a couple of replies to comments made earlier, then goes right to the heart of the matter.
