I have to at least defend myself here.....
The Real McCoy said:
It's called a typo... but that's neither here nor there.
My case for liberals being stupid:
They want stricter gun control when all this serves to do is tip the balance of gun ownership to the criminal world.
I'll admit that I'm not very well versed in the whole gun control thing, but....I sure do like having a 9 mil on either side of the bed :mrgreen:
They want more welfare when welfare doesn't work. (Clinton knew this)
I wouldn't necessarily say MORE welfare.....I just think we need to fix the system we have and people need to stop frickin' taking advantage of it, they instead need to get off of their lazy asses and do something for themselves. The government doesn't owe them anything.
They oppose free trade when free trade benefits evryone. (Clinton knew this too)
Free trade is cool with me.
They want "free health care" when no such thing exists.
Nope. But affordable health care would be nice.
They want us to be more involved with the UN when the UN is filled with corrupt, self serving countries who could give a **** about the international good.
I'm going to admit that I'm not very well versed in matters regarding the U.N., either......shut up, I didn't care about politics until a couple of years ago, I'm still learning! *ahem*
They seem to think the 1st amendment gives them "freedom FROM religion", not "freedom OF religion" which is what it really says.
The way I see it, it guarantees freedom OF religion
and freedom FROM religion. We are free to practice any religion we like, and free to practice none at all if we so choose. But there shall also not be a state (or national....I don't think "state" was meant as in each individual state, like some people like to say. But I could be wrong. I didn't write it.) sponsored/endorsed religion.
They claim to be the ones for "equality" while supporting discrimination (through Afirmative Action)
I think everyone should be treated equally, regardless of race, sex, sexual orientation, religion, political views, etc. With that being said, aside from establishing more equal treatment for gays.....the rest of it, people just need to shut up about it. If they didn't talk about it so much, it wouldn't be such a big deal, people wouldn't be thinking about it all of the time, and everything would fall into place.
They want us to lose in Iraq and hand an oil-rich nation over to al-Qaeda on a silver platter.
No, no, NO!!!!! I want our troops to do their mission and do it to the best of their ability. I may not agree with why we went to war (as far as Iraq is specifically concerned), but we're there and that's that. Might as well do the job and do it right.
They whine that we aren't doing enough to combat hunger in the world when this problem is caused by corrupt governments and much of the aid we provide goes to nefarious leaders. Then liberals complain about "nation building" and US intervention in foreign governments.
I'm more concerned about combatting hunger and such right here at home. I've said it many times, we should not be the world's babysitter. Other countries need to step up to the plate and take care of their own, just as we do.
They've infected the education system and the media with their liberalism, brainwashing our nation's youth and anyone else who is so easily swayed.
I guess that depends on where you live.....I thought my teachers were pretty conservative, actually....
They want to further unravel the fabric of the traditional American family and disintegrate communication between parents and their children. They'd rather see the government take the role of the parent.
NOOOOO!!!! I plan on doing everything in my power to make sure my marriage works, because I don't want my children to be the product of a divorce....I was, and sure, I turned out alright, but I don't want my kids to experience the emotional rollercoaster that goes along with having divorced parents. I also hope to be able to be a stay at home mom, or at least get away with only working part time or something, because I want to be able to spend as much time as possible with my children, to be there for them when they need me.
They support the 9th Circuit Court of appeals.
Eh.....not so much.
They dumb down our language through "Political Correctness"
Eh. If you say so. I tend to just say whatever I want, PC be damned.
They're too busy whining and complaining instead of winning elections.
Well, that's the politicians. I do what I can to better my own life, and I vote for who I think will best help better the lives of everyone, but I am but one person. It takes a lot more than that to win an election.
In short, they want a government that far exceeds it's constitutionally bound limits.
Nah, not really.....we leave that to Dubya.
