Clever one here. What makes the Republican candidates any better? Democrats are mostly morons, I'll give you that, but so are Republicans. Democracy in America is more like boxing or horse races. It's pathetic. Still, I'd rather have my personal rights than the choice to be poor if I wanted to be.

They're both on the same side, with the same goals. So neither one has any real standing with me.
My problem with his ideas is that it is a ridiculous thing.

If the Republicans had any brains, then the US wouldn't have to be so friendly with countries in the Middle East which either give America oil are are listed as supporting terrorism. The US is a big country with a low population density and a high potential for harnessing solar and (to a certain extent) hydro power. If Dubya had a brain in that thick skull of his, he'd've set up an infrastructure of renewables to supply America with the leccy it needs and dug up all the coal they're sitting on to manufacuture the hydrocarbon-based products required for America (which, if used plastics are recycled, need never run out). They'd never need oil again. This would allow them to stick their middle finger up to the Arabs they hate so much. If they REALLY wanted to rule the world, doing this would allow them to. Atm, they're basically swapping their excess food for the Middle Eastern countries' excess oil. If they didn't need oil, they could tell the countries which rely upon their food to do what they say or starve. If the Bush administration is as heartless as many think it is, they wouldn't care about others starving because of they're selfish hunger for power. But either they do have a heart somewhere, or Bush really is as thick as the satirists portray.

Just an angry rant on Dubya from a Brit's POV.

18 WAYS TO BE A GOOD LIBERAL
  • You have to be against capital punishment, but support abortion on demand.
  • You have to believe that businesses create oppression and governments create prosperity.
  • You have to believe that guns in the hands of law-abiding citizens are more of a threat than U.S. nuclear weapons technology in the hands of Iran or Chinese and North Korean communists.
  • You have to believe that there was no art before federal funding.
  • You have to believe that global temperatures are less affected by cyclical changes in the earth's climate and more affected by soccer moms driving SUV's.
  • You have to believe that gender roles are artificial, but being homosexual is natural.
  • You have to believe that the AIDS virus is spread by a lack of federal funding.
  • You have to believe that the same teacher who can't teach 4th-graders how to read is somehow qualified to teach those same kids about sex.
  • You have to believe that hunters don't care about nature, but PETA activists do.
  • You have to believe that self-esteem is more important than actually doing something to earn it.
  • You have to believe that Mel Gibson spent $25 million of his own money to make "The Passion of the Christ" for financial gain only.
  • You have to believe the NRA is bad because it supports certain parts of the Constitution, while the ACLU is good because it supports certain parts of
    the Constitution.
  • You have to believe that taxes are too low, but ATM fees are too high.
  • You have to believe that Margaret Sanger and Gloria Steinem are more important to American history than Thomas Jefferson, Gen. Robert E. Lee, and Thomas Edison.
  • You have to believe that standardized tests are racist, but racial quotas and set-asides are not.
  • You have to believe that the only reason socialism hasn't worked anywhere it's been tried is because the right people haven't been in charge.
  • You have to believe that homosexual parades displaying drag queens and transvestites should be constitutionally protected, and manger scenes at Christmas should be illegal.
  • You have to believe that this message is a part of a vast, right-wing conspiracy.

The first few were funny, the rest were fatheaded. And the socialism one makes me laugh, and all the stuff about federal funding, but then I'm not really a liberal, per se, I suppose...

With this statement I'm not implying that liberals are any better than conservatives, merely that Republicans, on the whole, aren't very intelligent, QED.  It's an unassailable logical conclusion that Bushido's statement is absurd.  ;D

Liberals do not exist in my opinion. Instead, the term is used as a slur against anyone who doesn't toe the line.

My reasoning for this, is that many people who call themselves Republicans, Conservatvies, etc, often display traits of the same label, but pull the moral righteousness card when cornered.

My problem with his ideas is that it is a ridiculous thing.

Genius. PURE, undiluted genius.
