Ok chris, you find me the article where the Young Conservatives are helping pimps and hoes on my tax dollar and I'll read it and call it ridiculous. I don't think yo understand that I don't give a rats tail about who they vote for. What I care about are their actions. You assume so much it sickens me. Extremists from any side are rediculous and I think most people will agree. Maybe even you. Im just discussing the one at hand. So deal with it or don't.
And i know you're going to brig him up so I'll adress it now. Rush is a great example of another extremist nutbag that drives me insane. Fortunately as long as he's not using my tax dollars to spew his opinions, I have less of a problem with him.
You love calling out conservatives but I have yet to see you make a remotely moderate statement. Till then i'm done with you because I don't believe you can come into a political discussion without immediately slamming hard against that far left wall and staying there.
Now see...with the exception of the last paragraph...we're finally getting somewhere.
Believe it or not...I agree with you. Extremists are the problem, on both sides of the fence. And I've said that many times. I'm just as mad about this particular video as you are. The difference is...I'm not only acknowledging the bad on side of the fence.
I've said in several different topics that there are plenty of
legitimate reasons to criticize Obama, his plans, and his ideas. Problem is...nobody seems to be doing that. People keep bringing up the nonsense...the ridiculous. The stuff that
isn't even real, because it is easier to scare people that way. If you want to discuss REAL issues(such as this one...but I'll get to it in a moment...), I'm all for it, and I'm sure you will find me just as moderate as most...maybe even find ourselves on agreeing more than one might think...
You know why you see me slam against that left wall? Because of late the recent political discussions have mostly been about stuff that isn't real. We are "debating" the merits of stuff that never happened. If I am going to "debate" a conspiracy theory...you darn right I'm going to do it from the left. Problem is...it's a fake argument.
Debating the indoctrination issue was ridiculous, because the original "press release" that started the whole thing was
made up by some guy that just
assumed a whole bunch of nonsense with
any evidence.
What was there to debate about Sen. Wilson? Really, there are people that don't believe he was rude? That's something you learn on the kindergarten playground...wait your turn and don't interrupt. Doesn't matter who he is or what he said, he was rude. Yet people
still turned it into a partisan debate.
Debating healthcare reform against strawmen about the Public Option that at this point in time
doesn't even exist. Debating the validity of statements like "forcing hospitals to treat patients without checking ID"? Debtaing whether or not insurance companies are capable of regulating themselves?? Really? We already KNOW they can't!!
So yea...when I'm debating myths, falsehoods, lies, mosconceptions, and ridiculous partisan-based accusations from as far to the left as I can get. You gotta battle conspiracy theories with idealism...
As for this video...it disgusts me. It's horrible what these people are doing, and it isn't justifiable. But you can't tell me that there aren't just as many equally horrifying videos available showing the OTHER side of the partisanship coin. So this topic, in essence, becomes another in a string of recent partisan attacks from one side or the other, all equally extreme from both sides.
Hmm...how many of these topics did start? The only thing you see from me is a case of fighting fire with fire. I am debating partisan accusations with partisan accusations...the same thing you are doing, and the same thing *most* of the participants in *most* of these recent threads have been doing.
Don't get mad at me about it. I haven't seen very many "middle of the road" statements coming from you, personally, or "your side", either. The same partisan garbage that everyone else spewing...including me. So don't get it all twisted and personal-like...
