1. Drug addiction is a disease that should be treated with compassion and understanding...unless the addict is a Conservative talk show host.
   
   
2. The United States should be subservient to the United Nations. Our highest authority is not God and the U.S. Constitution, but a collective of tinpot dictators (and their appeasers) and the U.N. charter.
   
   
3. Government should relax drug laws regardless of the potential for abuse, but should pass new and unConstitutional anti-gun laws because of the potential for abuse.
   
   
4. Calls for increased security after a terrorist attack are "political opportunism," but calls for more gun control after a criminal's spree killing is "a logical solution."
   
   
5. "It Takes a Village" means everything you want it to mean...except creeping socialist government involvement in the nuclear family.
   
   
6. Disarming innocent, law-abiding citizens helps protect them from evil, lawless terrorists and other thugs.
   
   
7. Slowly killing an unborn innocent by tearing it apart limb from limb is good. Slowly killing an innocent disabled woman by starving her to death is good. Quickly killing terrorists, convicted murderers and rapists is BAD.
   
   
8. Every religion should be respected and promoted in public schools in the name of diversity, so long as that religion isn't Christianity.
   
   
9. The best way to support our troops is to criticize their every move. This will let them know they're thought of often.
   
   
10. Sexual harassment, groping and drug use are degenerate if you're the governor of California, but it's okay if you're the President of the United States.
    
    
11. Sex education should be required so that teens can make informed choices about sex, but gun education should be banned because it will turn those same teens into maniacal mass-murderers.
    
    
12. Minorities are blameless for the hatred of the racist; women are blameless for the hatred of the rapist; but America is entirely at fault for the hatred of Islamofascists.
    
    
13. Poverty is the cause of all terrorism...which is why the leaders of al Qaeda are typically U.S.-educated and were raised in wealth and luxury.
    
    
14. The Patriot Act is a horrific compromise of Constitutional rights, but anti-Second Amendment laws and Franklin Roosevelt's Presidential Order 9066 must be regarded "reasonable precautions."
    
    
15. We should unquestioningly honor the wishes of our age-old allies, even when said allies no longer act like our allies and have vested economic interests in propping up our enemies.
    
    
16. Socialized medicine is the ideal. Nevermind all those people who spend every dime they have to get to the United States so they can get quality medical care...that their nation's socialized medical community can't provide.
    
    
17. Michael Moore, Noam Chomsky and Natalie Maines are perfectly qualified to criticize our leadership, but Arnold Schwarzenegger, Charlton Heston, and Dennis Miller are just ignorant political hacks.
    
    
18. John Lott's research on how gun ownership reduces crime is junk science, but Michael Bellesiles is still an authority on why gun control is good (even though he was forced to resign from Emory due to research misconduct over his book "Arming America").
    
    
19. Bush's toppling the Saddam regime was a "diversion," but Clinton's lobbing a couple of cruise missiles at Iraq in the thick of the Lewinsky sex scandal was "sending a message."
    
    
20. A president who lies under oath is okay, but a president who references sixteen words from an allies' intelligence report should be dragged through the streets naked.
    
    
21. Government should limit itself to the powers named in the Constitution, which include banning Second Amendment rights and shopping the courts for judges sympathetic to causes that wouldn't pass in any legislature.
    
    
22. "The People" in the First Amendment means The People; "the People" in the Fourth Amendment means The People; "the People" in the Ninth Amendment means The People; "the People" in the Tenth Amendment means The People; but "the People" in the Second Amendment (ratified in 1791) means the National Guard (created by an Act of Congress in 1903).
    
    
23. You support a woman's "right to choose" to kill her unborn child, but don't believe that same woman is competent enough to homeschool the children she bears.
    
    
24. Proven draft-dodging is irrelevant, but baseless claims of AWOL status is crucial to national security.
    
    
25. Threatening to boycott Dr. Laura's and Rush Limbaugh's advertisers is exercising Freedom of Speech, but threatening to boycott CBS's "The Reagans" and Liberal actors over their asinine anti-American remarks is censorship and McCarthyist blacklisting.

Well spoken, Sir.

Poppycock...............What a list of political nonsense.

you lost me at "islamofascist" it's nice things are so one way or the other for some people. i dont agree with everything the democrats do. Im the "ron paul spammer". however, the days of neocons twisting and distorting the truth through hate filled speech and half truths is going to come to an end soon enough. People are starting to wake up to the "you're with us or you're with them" bullshit that people like you push. Im in my car right now but when i get a chance to sit down ill go ahead and take on plenty of your copy and pasted points one by one and i'll put money down you will not be able to have a leg to stand on debate wise. emotionally filled hate rhetoric will never stand up to facts and logic.

He did not loose me at "islamofascist". Regardless of your religion, or lack of religion, an islamofascist would cheerfully kill you and your family because you are an American or British or of some other modern Western culture. Islamofascist are hell-bent on returning to the 13th century. They will kill anyone, including Moslems, who do not believe as they believe.

Secondly, Vi did NOT say "you're with us or you're with them" bullshit that people like you push"; those are your words, Sir. Vi is capable to speak for himself, but, I believe he is addressing hypocrisy and demagogic behavior. Both of which he believes is prevalent among many present-day democrats.

Thirdly, I am a neocon and you don't speak what I think. I am revulsed when conservatives tell lies. What Dubya and Tricky Dicky have pulled has made me sick. So you would signifigantly strenghthen your arguments by attacking liers, and not a class of people.

Finally, I will remind you of what liberal democrat, named Harry Truman said countless times; (paraphrasing). It does not matter if a politician is a Democrat or a Republican, of if he is a liberal or a conservative. What matters is whether or not he can be trusted to tell the truth.

So, what Vi has said is factually correct, even if you disagree with his politics.

Nice looking new avatar, medicineman. Your grow?

Good thing I'm not a democrat
Do you really think that is why "democrats" don't like Rush. Perhaps, it could be because he is the biggest hypocrite in the world. He would love to see people like me and you rot in prison cells, while he's poppin oxy like they're candy. It would not matter if he was the most liberal man on the planet, He still needs a bullet through his head. If you can't see that you're not a rational man. Your way too caught up in the conservative vs. liberal B.S. Can't you just forget party lines, for a second, and decide for yourself what is right and wrong?

I'm going to stay out of this debate, not because that list is full of nonsense but...Its thanksgiving man, jesus!

LOUNGE

Very good, Vi. My favorites: 11, 14, 22, 23.
I feel these are less objective and have less firepower: 7, 9, 12

Overall, great job!

Isn't it amazing that when a libertarian/conservative/anti-statist expresses an opinion, its "hate speech." But when a liberal/socialist/communist expresses hate speech, its just an exercise in free speech? ~lol~ The hypocrisy of the Left is astounding.
