In today's politics, many ideas are split between and even within all the political parties. Often we find ourselves agreeing on one platform but some topics break our mold.

    A simple question for Republicans...

    It's a silly thread, yet you took the time twice to respond to it. Why don't you humor my silly thread and answer the question, yes or no?

    A simple question for Republicans...

    That's your response, move on? You're right, an authoritarian jackass president claims dictatorial powers, breaks the law repeatedly, and violates your civil liberties and mine, and we should all just quit our belly aching and get over it, because the authoritarian jackass president is leaving...

    A simple question for Republicans...

    Do you believe President Bush has the power to spy on you without a warrant, imprison you indefinitely without access to due process, and subject you to "enhanced interrogation" techniques such as waterboarding? If you answered yes, then you should rejoice, because that's exactly what President...

    MSM Demonstrates Double Standard

    Argument by repetition. The media is liberal because Stinger says it is. Unless you define what you mean by "liberal," and then provide evidence of systemic bias without resorting to highly subjective and cherry-picked anecdotes, your "argument" is exactly what I said it is: a hackneyed...

    MSM Demonstrates Double Standard

    So CBS, NBC, ABC, MSNBC, NYT, LAT, NPR, Newsweek, and Time are all part of the "liberal MSM" conspiracy cabal? Never mind that I could site reams of examples of “conservative” bias from all these sources (e.g. their mindless, uncritical cheerleading of the run up to the war). But that would all...

    MSM Demonstrates Double Standard

    This is a perfect example of the fallacious and incredibly trite and hackneyed "liberal media bias" argument. Since "the media" is so vast and subject to so many forces that proving systemic bias is impossible, those, like Aquapub, who believe in a liberal media bias, like the good conspiracy...

    Why Do Democrats Keep Siding With Criminals?

    OK, Aquapub, your belabored "argument" can be boiled down to this: "Democrats/Liberals are pedophile/terrorist/communist-coddling traitors who obviously hate America and are actively plotting its demise." Did I miss anything? (FYI, Aquapub, roughly half the electorate votes Democratic, and...

    The Twisted, er, "Conservative" Vision of America, by National Review

    From Salon's Glenn Greenwald: And what of the fact that the U.S. has managed under every President from Carter to Clinton to defend itself in compliance with this horrendous "probable cause" burden under FISA, even as Ronald Reagan -- as the National Review folklore goes -- heroically...

    Troops in Iraq: Protecting our Freedom?

    This idea is silly in that it assumes that terrorism is a zero sum game: there's a finite number of terrorists, the argument goes, and so we're "fighting them over there so we don't have to fight them here." There have been many acts of terrorism around the world during the Iraq war, most...

    What's up with the media!?!?

    Maybe because reporters are afraid of getting their heads blown off. And let me guess, you believe the media has a liberal bias and only reports the bad news from Iraq because it wants to see America fail. Here's a question for you: Why is it that people who complain that the media never...

    Note to President Bush

    15 of the 19 9/11 highjackers were Saudi Arabian. Where do you think Al Qaeda's money comes from? Saudi Arabia is the #1 sponsor of terrorism. But Bush french kisses those undemocratic, terrorist-funding princes in public. From the Cato Institute: Saudi Arabia enlisted in the fight against...

    Note to President Bush

    Oh, but how your brilliant retort stings! What lie, that Bush is an incompetent jackass? That's a scientific fact. P.S. You Republicans need a Moore-ectomy.

    Note to President Bush

    Dude, I don't know who does your taxes, but if you're making $5.75/hour, that's less than $12,000 a year, so you don't pay any payroll taxes. You get it all back at the end of the year. You don't know what you're talking about. P.S. Would it kill you to use some punctuation?
