it's kinda funny. when black americans vote en masse for "the black candidate", it's seen as only natural. when the platform of "a white candidate" strikes a chord with, among many others, the members of a white supremacist group, it's seen as a reason to suspect his every move. when that...

no invasion, we'll just take her out with a drone armed with donuts and taco sauce.

screw you guys, i'm voting the ding dong party. he's even promising not to invade new jersey

now that we've gotten fuchsia out of the way, what the hell was this thread about?

duke, it isn't spinning. it's called having a sense of history. slavery was not mentioned, though it was accepted, because it was a common practice in almost every corner of the world at that time. women didn't vote because gender roles at the time were not as loosely construed as they are...

the point is that where there is bad, there is also good. greed and its cousin envy spur us to achieve greater things. our differences, political and otherwise, force us to face alternatives to what we are comfortable with. religion should be seen in a like manner. since there is no chance...

i suppose it's a matter of opinion, but my opinion trumps all.:bigjoint:

some folks will always be stuck in the past. to them george wallace will always be standing in that schoolhouse door and lynch mobs will be forever roaming freely across the countryside. racism is one of those accusations that can never be disproved. denying it will only make you seem that...

fuchsia is never tasteful

i've always thought the whole "under color of authority" thing sounded a little odd. could someone tell me just what color authority is? i believe it's a sort of greyish green, a little lighter than olive drab, but i could be wrong.:bigjoint:

any number of things take priority over other human beings. greed, envy and political differences, to name only a few. that a bunch of folks consider the order of the universe to stand ahead of human life is probably among the least of our worries.

i hope you realize how ignorant this liberal cliche actually is. here we have y'all claiming that conservatism is the ideology of the rich and powerful, but also claiming that their supporters are a bunch of poverty stricken hicks. you must have a rather low opinion of your own abilities if...

it might be said that the presidency is theirs to lose, but they are doing a hell of a job of it. romney is a slightly younger version of mccain, essentially a liberal without the true wacko credentials, and perry is spectacularly unimpressive. they've shut honesty out of the race, deciding...

though the proper term would have to be metaphor, that really isn't the point, now is it. the term was chosen exactly for the atrocities it brings to mind. each era has had those terms, broadly and calculatingly used, which are used against anyone who opposes the current agenda. during the...

no, they are merely a protection that separates the assets of investors from the liabilities of the enterprise. seeking poke holes in the barrier of those protections increases the risk to investors and, in many cases, makes the enterprise itself not worth continuing. how many people do you...

we'll be sure to let you do it again, but only if you promise to wait until bambam is there.

i think that's the entire thrust of his post, as well as every other post he has entered in this forum. that one shouldn't have to rely on one's own resources. that the holy state should be responsible for all of your needs and desires.

anyone who uses the generic term "prey on the people" is suspect. just what is it that you object to? are these illegal or immoral actions or are they merely business practices that take full advantage of a businesses position in the marketplace? is it that you object to businesses having...

once again this morning you are a bit quicker than i am to respond. i guess lighting up a joint this early on a sunday morning does have its downside.

a little research into the subject probably would have saved you from making a point completely opposite from the one you were trying to make. those corporations decried by our founders were inextricably linked to the state. they existed and were granted power solely by decree of the crown...
