A House Divided

[Dragonlipz]

Couldn't resist putting this one up.

I voted Democrat because I love the fact that I can now marry whatever I want. And...I've decided to marry my horse. I voted Democrat because I believe oil companies' profits of 4% on a gallon of gas are obscene but the government taxing the same gallon of gas at 15% isn't. I voted Democrat because I believe the government will do a better job of spending the money I earn than I would. I voted Democrat because freedom of speech is fine as long as nobody is offended by it. I voted Democrat because when we pull out of Iraq I trust that the bad guys will stop what they're doing because they now think we're good people. I voted Democrat because I'm way too irresponsible to own a gun, and I know that my local police are all I need to protect me from murderers and thieves. I voted Democrat because I believe that people who can't tell us if it will rain on Friday can tell us that the polar ice caps will melt away in ten years if I don't start driving a Prius. I voted Democrat because I'm not concerned about the slaughter of millions of babies so long as we keep all death row inmates alive. I voted Democrat because I believe that business should not be allowed to make profits for themselves. They need to break even and give the rest away to the government for redistribution as it sees fit. I voted Democrat because I believe liberal judges need to rewrite The Constitution every few days to suit some fringe kooks who would never get their agendas past the voters. I voted Democrat because my head is so firmly planted up where the sun doesn't shine that it is unlikely that I'll ever have another point of view.. "A Liberal is a person who will give away everything they don't own." "A Liberal is also a person who will give another person the shirt off your back."

Sounds like you finally got some sense......

Please explain why there were no slave revolts during the Civil War, and how the KKK was able to intimidate blacks after the war.

Nonsense. I've studied the Civil War and 19th Century History for 50 years, and slave resistance was almost unknown before or during the war. In fact, black suppression was worse after the war than before.

You and Davey Horowitz - I just linked to a whole book detailing just the protests before the war, that utterly refutes your little revisionist fantasy, footnoted too.

Just deal with the fact that you're an unprincipled opportunist and move on. Quit trying to buff it up and make yourself out to be the hero.

You'd love everybody to start fighting, 'cause that justify your own prejudices - sure people compete and strive with one another, if we can't find divisions, we invent them: religion, gender, status, style, etc., but when we have to work together, we usually do, and even that strife and competition serves a purpose, and is often the very wellspring of progress and change.

It's something the framers of the constitution understood, and what makes it unique in the annals of social politics.

If it isn't enough to just be White anymore, you're just gonna have to get off your fat lazy ass.

See? Progress.

David Horowitz was the King of Liberals ONCE UPON A TIME. I was a liberal, too.

I have my doubts about your information concerning black violence in the South.

You've wasted fifty years and I've wasted fifty seconds telling you that you did.....learn to read, my friend, and read something that isn't nonsense.....
Better yet: THINK.
This part is hard because you can't rely on the voices in yer head or on the radio to tell ya what's up......
Ready? Here we go......why would anyone sacrifice their freedom? Or their dignity? Again, you'll have to THINK......

Contrary to the conventional wisdom, blacks are docile and generally avoid violent conflicts with whites. Theyre looters, thieves, and arsonists, and rarely terrorists.
