I was watching TV a few days ago, and I looked over at my buddy, and it looked like he was hypnotized. I said something to him, and he didn't respond. He was completely locked in. It hit me, 3 or 4 hours can go buy watching television or being on the internet at the flick of a second. Then I...

Why, yes, things are certainly working out peachy in... Oh, wait! Guess not.

Broad brush much? Both sides have their ignorant, gullible dingbats. People in this country have been resisting attempts at government health care for many, many decades. This same debate was going on in the early sixties and it was decades old then. So you can't blame modern-day Republican...

Why do I vote? Why, to keep liberals out of office, of course. :D Seriously though, I know what you're driving at but electing a government does not mean we are the government. And it doesn't mean we have much more control over government than to set the general direction it takes. Most...

Yeah, but you're just as big (and eager) an asshole as mhendo. So you can fucko off too.

No the fuck it isn't! It's a bunch of bureaucratic functionaries and manipulative, self-serving politicians and legislators who more and more want to increase our taxes and control our lives. (Not that your ilk would find that objectionable in the least.) We aren't the government any more than...

Still, do you deny his credibility? Do you question the facts as he outlined them?

Oh, but I am. I honestly cannot fathom what could cause a person to adopt the belief, as you apparently have, that all things being equal it's best to act like an asshole. But since you alleged believe that I'm not curious about it myself, perhaps you'd be willling to concede that there are...

The 'there' which was there was to remind people of Hillary Clinton's long record of dishonesty, chicanery and file/evidence manipulation. Interesting information regarding the disappearing Foster/Whitewater files and Hillary's chicanery with regard to that subject can be found here...

"Aides to Hillary Clinton were investigated for the removal of unidentified files from Foster's office before the Secret Service or FBI could secure the premises" and "As it happened, how the White House and Hillary Clinton in particular handled Foster's files and documents immediately after...

Just because you can do something it doesn't necessarily mean that you should. If you'd have made that post sans the first line you'd have come across as an intelligent, knowledgeable, helpful guy. Instead you chose to preface that with a line that makes you look like reveals you to be the...

I do not think I said what you think that I said. ;) I'm not supportive of Social Security and I never have been. I thought it was ridiculous and a ripoff even when I was in my teens. If the government was going to take the position that people wouldn't set anything aside for their retirement...

Yeah, I did that once in a wrestling match when I was in high-school too. The other guy and I both wound up tied in knots. I was just about to pass out when I looked up and saw a pair of balls hanging in front of my face. So with the last of my strength I reached up and bit 'em as hard as I...

I don't know. I do know that it's quite possible that he simply changed his mind, and possibly changed it on the basis of some of the hundreds or thousands of pieces of information he was getting daily regarding developments in Iraq. The difference between you and me is that because he's my...

Nope. 'Death panels' was a mischaracterization that actually referred to bureaucratic decisions to disallow lifesaving treatment due to cost considerations. Do you think the government wouldn't do something like that? I know of a woman who had a stroke and was completly paralyzed on the left...
