but I’m also quite fond of the vast cast of characters present in that great French community based organizational orgy we call The Terror. One of it’s inventors, Robespierre, ultimately falls to his own device in delicious irony. We conservatives guffaw about that hundreds of years later.

Our present leader, duh1, makes the Shrub look almost intelligent. This guy is one dumbazz.

Someone on a thread on a forum somewhere snidely said, “So much for Compassionate Conservatism” in an attempt to insult against us.

Well, see, that’s an ironic problem for liberals. Because there is absolutely no way in hell that a liberal can claim to embody the word compassionate as long as s/he supports the murder of infants in the womb.

NOT POSSIBLE.

So, until they stop supporting and excusing infanticide, they discredit themselves from being able to claim to be compassionate.

Fair taxes are whatever taxes are needed to pay the bills, levied at the same rate for all income.

Now that is something I can agree with you about. Dick Armey’s Flat Tax proposal would have done exactly that, but it was shot down. Both Democrats and Republicans have too much at stake in the “progressive” and punitive tax system, which is unfair, burdensome, indecipherable and essentially corrupt in the sense that particular tax payers are selectively given tax breaks.

I have to take issue with the following statement though:

Liberals solve problems and change society for the better — and often givew their own money and time for causes, as well. Republicans whine.

What defines “better” and “whining” notwithstanding, the charitable donations of some prominent Democrats has been meager until they consider running for office

See the following:

It appears that Democrats are more inclined to donate my money than theirs. This pattern has been associated with red states and blue states, with citizens of red states giving significantly more charitable donations as a percentage of their income than those in blue states.

“One of Obama’s early mentors in the Alinsky method was Mike Kruglik, who had this to say to an interviewer of The New Republic, about Obama:

“He was a natural, the undisputed master of agitation, who could engage a room full of recruiting targets in a rapid-fire Socratic dialogue, nudging them to admit that they were not living up to their own standards. As with the panhandler, he could be aggressive and confrontational. With probing, sometimes personal questions, he would pinpoint the source of pain in their lives, tearing down their egos just enough before dangling a carrot of hope that they could make things better.”

The agitator’s job, according to Alinsky, is first to bring folks to the “realization” that they are indeed miserable, that their misery is the fault of unresponsive governments or greedy corporations, then help them to bond together to demand what they deserve, and to make such an almighty stink that the dastardly governments and corporations will see imminent “self-interest” in granting whatever it is that will cause the harassment to cease.”

“In these methods, euphemistically labeled “community organizing,” Obama had a four-year education, which he often says was the best education he ever got anywhere.”
