In case this isn't obvious I'm an avowed Liberal.  I also happen to be a registered Democrat.

He's gonna be REAL popular here.

Then as a high minded liberal you will condemn what those who represent you have done?



As a "high minded Liberal"  I find it pretty distasteful when any individual of any ideology politicizes a national/international tragedy.


That doesn't represent me, unless I voted for them.

Sorry to anyone it may offend but these folks are just plain useless ****ing idiots.
If you are all so damned sure of yourselves then come in here and make arguments and defend positions but you can`t.
You try to play coy little games as diversions...have some spine and put your best argument forward if you dare.

None of you will.

Once again, this is why I miss the hi-5 button.

Good God!  What is it with Liberals and their genetic inability to answer a simple yes or no question?

No you said the premise was false...despite the fact that evidence was given to prove that we were indeed correct.



The premise I repeatedly said and proved was false was "ALL."


Quote from: TxRadioguy on January 16, 2010, 06:19:59 PM
What you proved...and the only thing you proved...supposedly...is that you don't politicize these things.

Pardon me if I remain skeptical.



Quite alright, as I said before it's a free country.

So what then do you support?
If you condemn that demagoguery do you support the policies of those that used and benefited from it?
Pelosi and her minions in Congress.

I want to see how he rationalizes  the fact that his political ilk does at every turn but he is still somehow pure in support of them.



Thing of it is Carl is that what my "political ilk" does or does not do is up to them as individuals.


They are culpable as individuals not as an "ilk."

Right that explain the hive mentality and group think of the Liberal left in this country and the automatic ridicule slander and banishment of anyone who steps out of line.

Individualism is not allowed in Liberal land.

Yes it is an answer. 

No.  It's a nuanced cop out said in a way that gives you wiggle room either way depending on whom you're talking to.

yes or no.  Do you condemn the way the Democrat party wrongfully politicized the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina?

Fair enough but if you are a free and honest thinker when do you divorce yourself from that screed?
I am not talking policy differences here either but a fundamental reckoning that what those who say they share my political outlook are simply not correct in any of their motives and desires.

Very simple. 

It is a question of following the dictates of one's own conscience and being open minded.
