Gotta love it.

you know, gay marriage isn't doing so well in referendum formats.

something like... 33 states I think? and how many was it where it passed, hard to keep track of them all... there was.... that one..., right? wait. No, my bad. After doing my research, turns out that Gay Marriage is 0-33. Holy Crap. That is worse than the Lions.

ROFL. So much for people thinking liberalism is finally dominating America.

No, America is still very conservative.

Change!!!!!!!1!!11!1!!!!1 Say what...

There's good change and there's bad change.

Hey TJ, if you want something to be peeved about (and by peeved I mean astounded to the point that words cannot encapsulate the horror with which you absorbed the symbols before your eyes) read this article:

Then realize that multilateral =! Theocratic agendas backed by the moral standing of the US.

Then take a deep breath and remember that, since the redistribution of wealth education, the power class has had to find new ways to screw us. This is probably in exchange for some sort of deal by which [init: {subj: rich} {go: accrue} [D.O: wealth{val: 999999999}} {Skynetcapability{val: 000000001}}] the rich get richer (and do not become skynet).

I would say that us lefties are at least as concerned with the preservation of human rights as the gun nuts are with keeping their AK47s. For now, our goals line up: No orwellian definitions that can twist liberties into means of oppression.

I'm wondering why any of this is surprising to you.

Excuse my while i regain my "give-a-shit". Nope. It's gone forever.

problem being, as you are probably aware, the left and the right have vastly different definitions of the word "liberties" and we certainly don't agree on what is a human right, and what is not.

I have a feeling those 2 things are at the heart of all the political hatred that goes on in this country to be honest.

IT isn't. If it was, calling you a ****** wouldn't be a hate crime.

It seems that I have underestimated the Democrats because apparently, there ARE some intelligent ones. Keep up the good work guys..

? i am still unenlightened as to the existence of non malignant intelligent politicians in the first place.
