rune is too afraid to address me directly.
So from what I hear from a new friend he was banned for 60 days for trolling. Go figure.
With all due respect my good friend, pushing grandma off a cliff is the same hyperbole no matter which side does it. You seem to have problems with that truth.
It's real simple .. if the first place you look to make cuts is to the safety-nets that are keeping millions of people alive .. then you don't care about the human condition .. especially when there are lots of other places to make cuts, starting with our over-bloated defense budget .. and including the trillions we give to already rich people.
Your turn.

Again, hyperbole wasn't the topic of discussion. Your theory that the "right doesn't care" was and my statement that support of government programs doesn't equal compassion and is not a measure of "care".
Now, since you said that wasn't your measure of "care", then please by all means tell me how the "right" doesn't "care" without mentioning a government program.
I understand now that his banishment has been lifted with very strict conditions. The administrator there posted openly and more than once that he was banned forever. Who knows? Maybe I could go over there and start posting again. But I don't think I will. This place is a thousand times more fun!!!!!! And from what I see so far, fair as well!!!!!
Your premise is seriously flawed.
Support for programs that benefit the health and well-being of real and actual people is indeed a measure of caring.
I'll try this again ..

Can you address that?

Your measure of care is based on how many people each "side" wants to support through government programs. This isn't a measure of compassion, it is actually a measure of failure. The measure of compassion should be based on how many no longer need government programs, not how many more you can add. The argument that the "right doesn't care" based on how much they do not support the same government programs you think they should is a worthless measure and only proves my original statement to be accurate.
The premise isn't flawed it was proved by your posts here. I stated that your measure of "care" was how many people were on government programs. You insisted it was not your measure. I then pointed out that it is the measure of "care" of the "left"... And then you tried to deflect conversation into hyperbole, of which we were not speaking.
You then pointed out that the "right" doesn't "care" because they don't support enough government programs...
Which brings me right back to my original statement.

you lied liarman. you claimed i couldn't even "see" the website.
lol, you're too stupid to even admit you lied. and the reasons you claimed i was banned are not true. poor liarman, trying so hard to fit in with liberals here and yet he has to lie to do so.
Damo, if this theory is true, it is only an even graver indictment of the right over the past 30 years.
I never said that. I said that you couldn't go over there and read the posts because that is exactly what jimbo told you on the open board in one of your many attempts to re-register and always got your ass thrown back out. I am no liar, yuck. But you clearly are and that is as plain as the blue sky for anyone to see.
I know of an entire board of conservatives that can't stand you and your ilk, yuck. They threw you off forever for being such a jerk. You sneaked back in repeatedly and now you can't even view their board anymore. And, you are such a jerk for your BELIEFS that you seem to be so proud of.
AGAIN you run dude.
The point is real simple and very clear.
Can you address that point??
You seem to want me to address a point of yours before you even attempt to actually understand a point of mine. This is give and take. Tell me again how your measure isn't government programs, use examples that don't mention them because that is the only way you can make your point.
What is different is that I'm talking about a truly representative democracy .. which is absent from corporate ownership. That is not what we have today. Do you disagree?
I already know who is going to win this election .. the one who be the best puppet for America's corporate masters. Obama.
What is different is that socialists are talking about representation not only politically, but also economically.
A more just society entails many things .. most of which is about removing corporate control from our political system .. which has a hand the wars we fight, the "crimes" that we prosecute, and the quality of life measures for American citizens.
You may think it just to give trillions of dollars to rich people as a bailout for their failures .. but I do not.
No problem .. but you are wrong to believe that "people first" implies that people won't still be striving for success and inovation. Capitalists believe that money is the only motivating factor .. it isn't. There are more doctors in Cuba per capita than there are in the US. In fact, there are many med students who go to Cuba to study.
There are more college graduates in Libya per capita than there are in the US.
We do not seek an end to capitalism, but an end to unfettered capitalism that only benefits the rich.
"Free" is relative.
How are you free when corporations own your government and manipulate your elections? How are you free when Americans have no voice in the wars we fight and the economic direction of their own country?
How are you free when the US is the greatest prison nation in human history .. most for non-violent crimes that only enrich the prison/industrial complex?
Are you of the belief that corporate-free is not a representative government?
Corporate "freedom" to control the US government SHOULD be taken away. Ask the Founders who you like to refer to.
We both are smart .. no reason why we can't continue to discuss any and everything of importance.
Not really. Most progress has been made by moderate Dem Presidents along with right-leaning congresses. The Welfare Reform Act passed in 1996 is a good example. The most striking indictment on this one would be the unimaginable numbers currently on food stamps while they run ads trying to gain more. This isn't success, it is a sign of the extreme failure of the "stimulus" program that Obama joked about during one of the extreme few "Jobs Councils" our beloved President has held. (ha ha... My plan didn't produce the shovel ready jobs I promised... Hahahahahaha!)
We care, we just don't believe that the government is, or ever should be, the first place we look for solutions.
Today, you can see my point that it is a measure of failure when you look at the food stamp program, more on it than ever before while the President sits in Jobs Councils joking about how his stimulus didn't produce the shovel-ready jobs he promised were there. Seriously, it is well borne out by the current circumstances and the past. Had his policy been successful there would be less people on Food Stamps, however today we get people who say that "the right" doesn't care because they point out this failure of policy.

I'm told he's on a very tight leash, like a dog. Woof! And if he doesn't quit harrasing folks the dog will quote "head to the pound".
Ya know, for a bunch of cons, they're not that bad. We shared a mutual dislike of your smarm and trolling. Your screen name tickled me.![]()
what?
you know me from another board?
