Chef Jim Posted August 5, 2008 Share Posted August 5, 2008 You know, I've been listening to the Dummycrats make that argument for 25 years. Is there a point when you !@#$ing people realize that steps HAVE to be taken NOW to ensure things are available in the future? Or should we just keep putting it off and praying like hell that scientists will figure out how to create a magic bean to fix the issue? Democrat Energy Plan: 1. No Nukes 2. No Drilling 3. ????????? 4. Profit Idiots. I propose a AD/KD rude poster death match. You two are such meanies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

justnzane Posted August 5, 2008 Share Posted August 5, 2008 Oh look everyone, it's oxyMORON day at TBD. ... and you are supposed to be the moderator Jesus, you wonder why this is such one sided banter on this particular board as opposed to civilized discussion. Maybe the name of this forum should be : Republican Opinions Only as liberal thoughts are welcomed at all in this board. The state of this board is indicative of the problems that are wrecking our country. Rather than seeing a liberal as a person with some different approaches to the problems than a conservative, the Republicans see things as my way is the only way, and your way is wrong. Now, after the past 8 years of Bush's rule, you'd think that some of the conservative thinkers might want rethink their ideals just a little, and open up there eyes and ears to what the other side might have to say.

Maybe the name of this forum should be : Republican Opinions Only as liberal thoughts are welcomed at all in this board. You know, just because people think liberals are complete idiots doesn't mean they identify one bit with the Republican Party. I don't welcome liberal "thoughts" because history has proven that they will NEVER work. The state of this board is indicative of the problems that are wrecking our country.

You mean because I'm a big fan of the current administration or the Republican Party? You're right that the state of this board is indicative but it's not for the reasons that you cite. Pretending the Democrats are somehow different than the Republicans (in the same Fox and CNN are different ) is a far bigger problem than either party on its own. But keep feeding the beast without actually analyzing the situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You mean that the New Deal wasn't successful in getting us out of the Great Depression? Darin, you really have to stop drinking that Kool-Aid man. Seriously, you have such a slanted view of things that you can't accept the other side having a good point. Now, I am sensible enough to know the conservative thoughts have a good and valid point when used correctly. I am also cognizant enough to know there is some flawed thought to every approach. In general, it is about finding the common ground. However you promote a one sided board where level discourse gets out of whack very quickly, with attacks on the poster rather than the issue at hand.

Fingon Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 The New Deal hurt low income people, a lot. It included some terribly regressive taxes, like taxes on everyday household goods. Social Security is a complete mess, and is massively inefficient. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wacka Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 The Republicans abolished slavery. And were vital in getting the Civil Rights Bill in 1964 passed ( the one that Al Gore Sr. and Robert "KKK" Byrd filibustered). I think justnzane said he is a teacher. I hope it isn't history.

You know what got us out of the Depression? WWII. Not "programs". War. As far as "abolishing slavery" or "giving civil rights to minorities", those aren't the domain of liberals or conservatives.

KD in CA Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 Please Post more... PPP can use more sensible liberals here as the Right-wing loonies tend to ruin this board. So someone drawing ridiculous conclusions that he couldn't substantiate makes him a 'sensible liberal', but the thread was 'ruined' by the numerous people who pointed out flaws in his logic (damn you BlueFire you neo-con!)? I know you'd like more company on the far left, but gimmie a break. FWIW, yes KD in CT is a rude poster. ...no one likes me.......when I point out the flaws in their arguments.
