fun reading from the Far Left
actually this is some funny stuff, and while completely ridiculing the recent CPAC meeting, does raise real issues around why the right seems headed for irrelevance:

Re: fun reading from the Far Left
All you had to do was listen to Rand Paul's speech at CPAC. Even though he acknowledges that things need to change for the party to get more of the vote, he's STILL clueless.

Re: fun reading from the Far Left
if you think I'm far left, you are WAY out of touch with your nation's politics.

Re: fun reading from the Far Left
Remember, most "conservatives" today are so far right, the center has moved, farther to the right. Most Republicans from the past of my childhood would be considered liberal by today's Republican standards.

Re: fun reading from the Far Left
true....no way Rockafeller, Nixon, Eisenhower, Roosevelt(Teddy) nor Lincoln would be accepted today as Republicans. Heck, Goldwater and Buckley would likely fall short of the 'conservative' mark today. Sad, really, because that is exactly what is pushing the GOP into the ditch.

we're just trying to stay out of the sewer that the liberals have been living in for decades and like a tornado the only safe place is in the ditch.callmeslick wrote:true....no way Rockafeller, Nixon, Eisenhower, Roosevelt(Teddy) nor Lincoln would be accepted today as Republicans.

Not a chance. Unlike liberals, conservatives don't like to wallow in their muckcallmeslick wrote:be careful that you all don't get buried in that ditch, CUDA.

Re: fun reading from the Far Left
heck, most liberals and moderates don't even try to deal in 'muck', by my observation.......
edit for CUDA--speaking of wallowing in one's own muck, I saw you chose not to respond to me elsewhere when I pointed out that you had been dealing in bogus comparisons for the sake of making ideological points. Cat got your tongue, eh?

Re: fun reading from the Far Left
uhm sorry I have a life other then just posting on these forums. you'll notice that in 12 years on this forum I've only accumulated a bit over 4 thousand Posts where you have posted almost 3000 times in just over a year. and you've posted 5 times as many posts as I have on the other forum and we joined on the same daycallmeslick wrote:edit for CUDA--speaking of wallowing in one's own muck, I saw you chose not to respond to me elsewhere when I pointed out that you had been dealing in bogus comparisons for the sake of making ideological points.

PLUS the fact that as is typical for you, you continually deflect from the topic at hand. and until you admit to the posted facts about the PA then I don't wish in engage in any further hyperbole and deflection from you.

Conservatives just happen to like existing their muck. It still stinks at times to those outside the cage however.CUDA wrote:Not a chance. Unlike liberals, conservatives don't like to wallow in their muckcallmeslick wrote:be careful that you all don't get buried in that ditch, CUDA.

Welp, at least you can say that no matter what kind of background, age, gender or education you have all had, you still managed to all find the same level.
