That's so awesome...the tinfoil hats and the cars covered with anti-Israel stickers are such an exclamation point. Indeed, you cannot make this stuff up.

Of course, these 1,000 people had nothing better to do with thier time: clean a street of crack vials, help a child or thier child or grandchild with his or her math or reading homework, stop a single woman from aborting the flesh and blood that could very well support her someday. No, just like in the 60's of the 20th century; they prefer finger pointing at others because 'THEY' are all PERFECT right here right now...not one thing wrong with these folk...heh heh (so thier simple, very simple minds tell themselves)

Ironically, if we examined closely the lives of every person 'to the letter' - we could impeach them all right off the beach. (of course, they don't want to look at themselves; they have it 'all together' they are perfect right here right now, not a thing for them to change.) What sad lives. so sad.

But don't question their patriotism.

Patriotism - is love of country, being a responsible citizen. (see my post above on how we the people can act responsibly to those in our family and neighbor) It means correcting those who act with a disregard to the domestic tranquility of the entire nation at large. To act responsibly one must first know right from wrong, and not subjective right and wrong. Good actions produce good results (like working for oneself as well as providing service to the nation)

Those who would do drugs, drive drunk, abort an innocent unborn child to be for their own conveniences, those who yell obscenities as though an adjective; are but children who need constant supervision. (and your democrat 'provider' will gladly do so, but 'free' you will certainly not be)

why is it that with all you right wing authoritarians being patritotic means doing whatever you say and thinking exactly like you? is it possible that people could be patritotic and not like, or even detest, president Bush? I know, the answer is no. why do I even ask?

ba-
have you ever even tried thinking for yourself? it is seriously an amazing experience. you should try it some time.

i'll give you this, though- i love san francisco, and i'm a liberal, but the tin foil hats were not the best idea.

Slingshot, respectfully asked: Do you ever think before you speak? Let me show you your sentence:
>Why is...it being patritotic means doing whatever you say and thinking exactly like you?

You see, that's your confusion. It's not 'me' coming around to your words or vice versa. It's knowing WHY one CAN'T just 'do whatever they wish' (tempting as it is) or SAY anything they want to say.(also at times tempting)

The word is called SELF control. And it does much to bring peace in families, communities, and a nation. The mature of spirit understand this power over the 'self' (self control)

THINKING, before speaking. How will my words affect this human person--just like ME. You see, that is 'thinking for myself' - I don't have to go along with the general mob of persons, who mock or deride another, only because by doing so, 'they' look like 'sharp of wit' or 'big man'
(easy to be big by be-littling another) Harder, to, as you say - think things out according to known truths, to take a hard look at the life of the one doing the be-littling.

yes, ba. calling people who are pro-choice "children who need constant supervision" is very mature and not belittling at all. it is possible that people may have a difference of opinion from you, but that doesn't mean they think they can just "do whatever they want." i gotta be honest with you- as for the self control lecture, i'm not sure i get the relevance of what you're trying to say. the fact that you write "respectfully asked" does not make your question respectful. is a possible answer to your question "no, i never think before i speak"? i think probably not, hence you are mocking me.

Man "slingshot" - you are filled with some type of bitterness. (and it's not at all my fault or the fault of this President or the fault of any person who believes that responsible adults take responsibility for the actions they themselves CHOOSE to take, hence any reference that 'pro-choice' liberals are like the mind of a child, who acts BEFORE thinking it all out.) It's not your direct fault - you grew up in such a 'free love' culture. My guess is I am older than you, and I will admit the generation just before mine and yes my generation - did not at all help you in forming the right type of life choices. So, learn. Ok? Instead of being bitter, 'hear' between the lines. DON'T listen to 'the world.'
BE DIFFERENT. THINK FIRST, that's what I wanted you or anyone to come to understand. If I do 'a'...'b' will result, which will mean I have to follow through and do 'c'/ c - meaning take the responsibility for whatever it is you thought was so important to do. Yes, I think bringing to light what is happening is mature. In fact, a psycotherapist probably would charge big bucks to 'enlighten' people as to why they do as they do. (because they have yet to fully mature to the point of understanding that independent adult means what it says; you have the maturity to make RIGHT decisions and take care of your own life.) If you feel that statement 'be-littling' - it must be true. So prove 'me' wrong. CHANGE yourself. (or don't change, no matter to me, accept I know you probably want to, so I urge you
to start thinking for YOURSELF and begin correct what might be your weak areas, we all have them,
we all change constantly - like a tree grows from an acorn to a mighty oak) Don't try to change our President, or those on the right, look within yourself. You'll start to feel and see the world differently, guaranteed.)

Sorry, but I don't follow your last line. Starting first with 'respectfully asked' is not respectful because you would answer yes. I wasn't looking for an actual answer, it was a rhetorical
statement to bring you TO think of how you sound to me, when you make your statements.

definition of rhetorical question: A rhetorical question is a figure of speech in the form of a question posed for rhetorical effect rather than for the purpose of getting an answer. ("How many times do I have to tell you to stop walking into the house with mud on your shoes?"). A rhetorical question seeks to ENCOURAGE REFLECTION within the listener as to what the answer to the question (at least, the answer implied by the questioner) must be. OF COURSE we know you know how to think.
SO - show 'me.' (get it?)

p.s. starting with "respectfully asked", was every bit meant as stated: respectfully I asked you to re-examine your statement which I showed you. I explained I wasn't looking for you to do as I do or speak as I speak. I wanted to make you think: "why did I ask that question that way to ba?"

You notice I did not answer directly your rhetorical question? 'is it possible that people could be patriotic and not like, or even detest, president Bush?' 1. because the question had no bearing on what patriotism is: love of country enough to act as a responsible citizen in it.
2. NOT LIKING who wins the office of President has no bearing on how you or I must still live as responsible adult thinking citizens. 3. So your question was without needing an answer, you merely needed to write that you 'detest' a person. Not very respectful to personhood. Hating actions, another matter, but that isn't what you stated. And if there something in the actions of this President you and others SUBJECTIVELY dislike; it bears no weight OBJECTIVELY, for sitting on a beach spelling
out IMPEACH because objectively this
President has done NOTHING to warrant that
punishment.
