The Most CONSERVATIVE Argument In My Lifetime Has Been...

"Well... if you're not doing anything wrong, why would you care what the government does with your privacy?"

NOT THE ****ING POINT !!!

And it is amazing, that at this time, in this place...

We get these arguments here...

The nation, and many in the Democratic Party, have moved so far right that...

The Bill of Rights, and the Constitution, are now Leftist Manifestos.


OTOH... In a way, they always were.

That's why I still try to defend and protect them in my own little way.

Is Willy serious?  I mean really?

I wish the DUmmies would make up there mind.

Which of us, or any conservative, have ever said that The Bill of Rights or Constitution are Leftist Manifestos?

Where do they come up with this shit?

Along with this post I see them complaining about the media being against them.  Are you serious?  If they are against you, who are they for?

8. They control the vocabulary...

it grates my nerve to hear Improvised Explosive Devices. That and "grow the economy" and "the optics". It is like they are trying to take thinking out of the talking and hearing, kind of like Ingsoc.

Yes we are the ones controlling vocabulary...  See: Gay.

Which side is it that passes "thought crime" (hate crime) legislation?

I could go on, but WillyT is half-right.  The Republicans and Democrats take turns trampling all over the constitution.  It's a big part of why we're in the financial mess we're in.

Not a Conservative viewpoint, dickweed.   :bird:

They've been confusing themselves for so long that anything remotely progressive sounding, jumbled together, makes sense to them.  And they wonder why they have a hard time holding employment in the Retail Vehicular Food Service Industry?  I mean, Whopper doesn't sound anything like Big Mac.  C'mon (D)Ummies.....

Can somebody explain how "improvised explosive device" is the right controlling the debate by use of language?

I agree that it's not the most elegant of language, but what else should one call a device which is made in an improvised manner in order to explode?

Tough shit that's what they are.  What do you want them called..."freedom fighter bombs"?

Those are Libtard terms.  Just like replacing taxes with "revenue generation" and calling illegal imigrants "undoccumented workers".  This whole softening of the vocabulary and changing terms to mask what you're really doing is a product and tool of the left.

Shut down your projector DUmmie.

If the right is guilty of anything it's stepping aside and allowing it to happen.

Why is "grow the economy" offensive?  I'm just asking, seems innocuous to me. 

WillyT's apparently been navel-gazing.  It seems to me he's having some sort of glimmer that unchecked governmental power is not always sweetness and light.

I meant to quote on that in my OP.

I was also wondering what else an IED could be called.

That one actually made sense.

Lots of muzzie savages have enjoyed blowing themselves sky high.

Nevertheless, Marine Corps snipers have been more effective in outreach to muzzies than NASA.

This is good stuff... Twitter has a new hashtag trending today, #ThingsYouCanLearnFromLiberals (http://twitter.com/search?q=%23ThingsYouCanLearnFromLiberals&src=tren):

Destroying eagle egg = $250,000 fine. Killing unborn child = Not only legal but taxpayers should pay for it.

Requiring ID to vote is racist, but thinking groups of people are too stupid to get an ID isn't

Which gays it's still okay to harass

When families or businesses cut budgets 10-50%, it's "belt-tightening," but gov't cutting 2% is a "crisis"

Waiting 3 months for an MRI is fine, but a 2 day waiting period for an abortion is a civil rights violation.

Hi5 - they are entirely selective about which issues constitute privacy and which don't.

How to be a victim your entire life and have absolutely no skills or ability to take care of yourself

Crazy people killing children with a gun is abominable. Mothers killing 300,000 unborn babies a years is good

Jesse Jackson Jr. Stealing $750,000 gets less notice than Marco Rubio drinking water.
