So you are convinced that this happy little planet that has managed to exist for over 4.5 billion years, saw the dinosaurs come and go, is so fragile now that my car will kill it as dead as old Marley? What caused previous global climate changes? Time traveling nutters in Hummers? Dino SUVS? This is a shake and bake planet..IT CHANGES at its own pace. Sometimes slow, SOMETIMES fast. Demanding MONEY like some loon Catholic of the early days and offering dispensations so AL GORE can heat his mansion and still feel happy about polar bears (Whose numbers are actually growing) while insisting that his so called “SCIENCE” be treated with the unquestioning obedience of some cult does not impress me. Blaming everything from cool summers to warm winters and my having stubbed my toe this morning to MAN MADE GLOBAL FAIL makes me laugh. Like his cult? By all means join it but when you come to my door to talk about AL GORE I shall snicker at you in the same fashion as I do Jehovah’s Witnesses!
Freedom is an impossibility, the term you are searching for is LIBERTY. Yes, as modern Liberals offer up Liberty for goodies, cake, candy and toys, TRUE conservatives (Not those who support crap like the Patriot Act) defend liberty as being more precious than sad bribes of other people's money. I will keep my guns, fast gas guzzling cars and if I find a spotted owl on my property I shall eat him in a sauce made of snail darters and snow leopards. I reject the silly notion of private property being evil and animals having “Rights”. Treat them with dignity and mercy? Sure, kill them before you eat them. Give them the right to hire an attorney as proposed by one of President Obama’s Czars? WTF? NO!
Scoff all you like, but unless you are ready to trade in violence by way of arms, money is your accepted form of power. Funny thing, Liberals are always so generous with other people's money but I do not see Babs, Mike Moore or the like tossing their cash out of windows for the needy. Nor do I see them ready to line up for the Free Fail Healthcare. Yes, it is good enough for the masses, but them? NEVER!
So not wishing to be a slave in all but name is "Greedy"? I pay at least 70% of everything I make in taxes and fees. Tell me, how much more should the weak, useless, parasitical and generally worthless take from me before I am no longer "Greedy"? Please Massa...when ya gonna set me FREE?
Prejudiced? You make me laugh. Which is Prejudice?
A: All humans are of equal potential value and should be allowed to succeed with their own talents as they will. No one will stop a citizen from employing his skills and abilities to advance himself to the fullest extent of his potential. He shall own what he earns and do with it as he sees fit. If he fails, he shall be encouraged to try again.
B: Negroes and other non white races along with women need special help to compete with straight white males. Being less than white males, they can not be held to the same standards of critical thinking or physical ability of white males. Tests and such are always geared for white males and can not be trusted. No one shall be allowed to fail even if that means they can only enjoy mediocrity. Everyone shall be made EQUAL if we have to break the legs of dancers and change crappy grades to better ones. Those who can not pay back loans as yet MUST be given loans and handouts.
SO? Tell me, which attitude sounds more like prejudice (To Pre Judge)?
Disagreeing with others is fine and encouraged. Calling those who disagree with you names, invalidates your arguments every time.
