For someone accusing everyone of being high, you sure don't read very well. No where did I say any single third party would get nearly as many votes as Perot, I said "parties" as in the Green Party, Independents, RP supporters, ect. And Paultards? Really? At least they are voting for someone they actually believe in…

Maybe I'm wrong, but I think we are going to see third parties get a record high of votes not seen since Perot. Love him or hate him, there is no denying now or for the last few months that the Republican power players and media have done everything possible to ignore or hurt the RP campaign, and his young voters are not…

And here lies another problem with conspiracies. Far be it from me to scoff at humor during these debates, I often am guilty of it myself. But all you have to do is look at the replies here and on other debates concerning conspiracies to see how easily they get turned into a punch line. Like I stated earlier, I can list…

I got what you were trying to say. But a lot of times many of these solutions to these problems have a side unexplored. When you look at the example of yelling fire in a movie theater, it is apparent that in this case that the person yelling is having his freedom of speech supressed in this case. But it is because not only…

Leave me alone, I'll leave you alone. So often when I hear people talk about how they are trying to do something "for the greater good" of society, I often find that they are just trying to get rid of something that they don't like and using children as a political weapon. Take the vilolent video games mentioned by the…

I always found it amazing it was never really publicized that the MLK family actually won a lawsuit in civil court against our government for their involvenment in the assassination. Now, of course this is not criminal court where the standard of proof is much higher...but still.

Sometimes the line between being perceptive and paranoid is a thin one. But I know what you mean. I used to obsess over cable news, corruption in our nation, ect....and all it got me was an angry dispostition and not a lot of sleep. But like I said earlier, delusional is thinking holographic airplanes hit the twin towers,…

It's one of those danged if you do, danged if you don't scenarios. I don't want to see anyone hurt or killed, that is for sure. But I also don't want to give the government sweeping authority to detain, even for mental evals, our citizens at the drop of a dime. We are getting to the point that our gov is either getting…

No, I never said I wasn't concerned. I actually stated that if he did make violent claims, then he has what's coming to him. I am just waiting to see what his rhetoric was because what is on his FB page now isn't what he is being investigated for. And his military training has no bearing to me in this case. Being a…

Here lies the problem with conspiracy theories. When some one presents the possiblity that our own FBI planned terror attacks against our own citizens, everyone thinks "Oh that is just nut, how can you think that?" And while I can honestly say that I have never seen proof that I believed that our own government had…

Yup. I realize that everyone is human, even politicians, and I often get annoyed at gotchya questions that they get ambushed with, like who the ambassodor from Guatamala is? But I do have the expectation that our elected officials have at least the minimum of knowledge that a GED earner would have....that vaginas don't…

Swanny, all it gave me was a PDF of data? What did it say?

You just don't get it Evan. Sure we had to aquire guns, kill a bunch a people, lose a lot of people, combine ancient greek style democratic elections with more modern constitutional republic ideas to form this nation and give us the rights decided upon by compromise.....but that is it was all god given.

Mandy, just because his ears, eyes, nose, face shape and eyebrow structure are different in the two pics means nothing. Look how different people look after they have been on MFP for a while! Quit being so crazy you whacky conspiracy theorist.

I'll have to admit, I've never heard that one.

No doubt, but we can't make a reasonable argument about his detention until we have seen what "threats" he made. Some one said earlier that they were deleted, so all we are left with is conpiracy theory stuff, marine sayings, and a video of some chick with huge hooters on his FB page.

In case you haven't noticed......all the countries you listed, there citizens aren't allowed to have fire arms. Almost every core right you have in this nation came from blood shed. Whether it be a musket, rifle, or getting sprayed down with a water cannon.

A: It's been proven...not theorized that rich powerful men who have that little fruity club out in California, I forget the name, do a secret ceremony called something like "The cremation of care" or close to that where they mock sacrifice a baby. I often wonder why people hold conspiracy theorists as nuts. Clearly there…

Oh, well then **** him. One, for advocating violence. Second...for putting it on the internet.

Could life begin at conception? Maybe. I'm just not going to take the rights away from an american woman who I know is a citizen and alive based on a hunch. I value liberty more than life. That's my take on it. Could I be wrong? Yup. Second, if God gave us rights, every ones would be equal and we wouldn't need to die for…

His posts mirror many of my friends. Far be it from me to scoff at conspiracy theorists or patriots, calling for a revolution is vague and often rhetoric. I don't have time to read his entire page, but if he is in no way advocating for violence, then what is the problem? Peaceful revolutions happen all the time. Even if…

At first I thought this guy was a nut job, but then I saw that Kirk Cameron was defending him, so now I have to rethink my positions, because Kirk Cameron has proven over and over to be a sane, thoughtful person.

I appologize. I'll rewrite it do appease your sensitivity. Also, they are linked because they were both pioneeers politically, being the first of their kind to occupy the White House. Obama was the first African-American man and Bush was the first retard.

Talking ealier about why we vote and for what made me think of this old Bill Hicks video talking about GHWB. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5j_2pHFlDgY

Oh, I'm in agreement. I have often said here in this group and else where that the Libs have given Obama a pass where the called Bush a Facist for basically the same foreign policy decisions.
-
I make the comparisons soley on the basis that most conservatives who either supported Bush policies or stayed silent oppose Obama for doing a much of the same stuff. The level of hypocrisy is astounding. Also, they are linked because they were both pioneeers politically, being the first of their kind to occupy the White…

But here is the interesting question, one I find myself facing often in politics. If Ryan is offering you a tax cut, but is opposite of you socially like with gay marriage or a seperation of church and state....are you willing to to trample civil liberties for some cash?
