What an insulting racist and bigotted post!

I am sure you just love your copies of the Clintons' books of lies!

 

Hey - so shoot me - I didn't write it.

I tried to remove the Jesse Helms and Strom Thurmond part - but apparently I only have 10 minutes to make any changes.

Both of these men are stone cold bigots -- but I should have deleted that part of the joke.

Jimmy - my favorite Neo con - lol.

Ya sorta missed the punch on that joke DTechBA. The books are short cause there's nothing or little to say. Yours are just jabs.

 

I actually asked the Moderators to remove this posting. After revewing it, I two of the entries were insensitive.

 

Nope I didn't mis it at all....

One list relied on twisting the truth (ie. there are in fact many, many Republican philanthropists), the other spoke uncomfortable truths not "jabs" as you say. Well maybe you are right, the truth can hurt the most you know.....

 

Re: Nope I didn't mis it at all....

Well, here's some truth that hurts, at least some of you....

Republicans - bad
Democrats - good

 

Re: Re: Nope I didn't mis it at all....

Still waiting for your truths.....

 

I think that it's kind of peculiar how the left-ideologues always insist that they are smarter than other people, while the right-ideologues all assume that they are more moral than everyone else.

What both of them forget is that thinking and morality are things that people can't just say that they possess. They are things that people have to actually DO.

 

Mary Jo Kopechne could not be reached for comment.

 

Alas! BillDayson! How VERY VERY true!

That left wing elitism is what is KILLING my party!

 

Re: Re: Nope I didn't mis it at all....

AMEN!

 

Indeed.

 

I disagree. You did fine.

It's also interesting to compare -- and I mean really compare -- the two lists. Democrats, one will note, concern themselves mostly (with a few exceptions, of course) with issues that have objectively broad socio-political interest, import and impact; and Republicans concern themselves mostly (with a few exceptions, of course) with issues of a more personal nature.

That's pretty much always been the case, though, hasn't it. The transgressions of Democrats usually have to do with crossing some sort of moral, how-one-lives-one's-life line which, in the end, impacts only said Democrat and a co-transgressor or two. But when Republicans screw up, unjust wars start, economies fall, people are discriminated against, civil rights are abrogated, corporate interests are catered to, institutions close and the mentally ill become homeless, the gap between the rich and poor gets wider, and all manner of other tragedies of great social and/or political impact which manifestly affect lives and fortunes are wrought upon us.

Which would you rather have: A little presidential jism on an intern's blue dress, or thousands of dead Americans fighting a war just to settle a father's old score and for godknows what other reasons which will probably only be discovered many years from now?

There's so much more truth to that than most Americans realize... or care to. It isn't just a difference of opinion. The difference has life altering consequences. It might even be a good and evil sort of thing. That's how I've always seen it. I choose to see my Republican friends as misguided, else I could not have them as friends.

 

You know, despite the fact I believe liberal views have a lot to give to our society, I think there is a lot more wrong with the Democrats than just elitism. A big part of the party has turned to negativism and falsehoods to justify their viewpoints and beliefs.

 

Dave, I love ya'... you know that... but yer kiddin', right? I mean... you gotta' be kiddin'!

 

Wow! That's all I can say. Dave must be kiddin.


Abner

 

You're not talking about them nattering nabobs of negativism, now, are you?

 

My, my, my, DesElms, do you ever need a history lesson.

Vietnam was unjust. JFK and LBJ were Democrats.

Civil rights? You have to be kidding? The following Governors and Senators were all Democrats who abrogated civil rights which led to lynchings, church bombings, and murder:

George Wallace, Ross Barnett, Orval Faubus, James Eastland, Jim Stennis, William J. Fullbright, Lester Maddox, John Bell Williams, Jimmie Davis, Allen Ellender, Russell Long, John Sparkman, John McClellen, Eugene Talmadge, Herman Talmadge, Lister Hill, Harry F. Byrd, Albert A. Gore, Fielding Wright, Hugh White, Earl K. Long, Robert Byrd, Ernest Hollings, and a host of others.

Remember, Democrat LBJ had to enlist the Republicans to pass the 1964 Civil Rights bill. Without the GOP the bill would not have passed because too many Democrats were against it.
