You've obviously have not been reading all of my postings (or you yourself are so Far Right that your home's foundation even has a right tilt to it?). Let me say it this way "all-knowing one"...there are more lifeforms in the known universe than "Liberal" and "Conservative." Your paranoia of Liberals has you imagining one behind every rose bush. BTW, if you're going to criticize, at least have the balls to have an identity for me to see what YOU'RE about...or do you place yourself so far above us mere mortals that you dare not come down from your perch atop Mount Olympus? Maybe if reactionary Conservatives like yourself didn't spend so much of your time with smear tactics and Conspiracy-laden propaganda, I woundn't have so many Left-leaning "examples" to chose from.

You may effectively hide it from the uninformed, however, you cannot hide it from people such as me. In addition, your writing is overly filled with forced puffery that it becomes "camp."<br /><br />Two suggestions<br />Learn how to write effectively.<br />Define yourself as the Leftist you are, and stop lying about your political leanings.

I like to think that I’m an adherent of the “politics of pragmatism”—promoting policy that the American people need, and not one based on some narrow-minded ideology. For example, there is a need for universal affordable health care. Not only have low-income but many middle income individuals have simply been priced out of the market. The result is that even those who can afford to pay pay higher premiums than they would have to cover the costs of providing care for the uninsured, so scare tactic arguments such as “your taxes will go up” simply do not hold water. Another example is the need to for the courts and other “interested parties” to stay out of business of how people raise their children (within reason of course). People have a right to administer corporal punishment on unruly children; we see the results of what happens when children are given the same rights as adults, despite the fact that they aren’t adults and need to be protected from themselves. As a final example, all life is sacred, and the state simply should not be in the business of promoting the taking of human life…whether it be through legally-sanctioned abortions or capital punishment. Simple put, Providence/God/Whoever brought us here, and Providence/God/Whoever should be the only force responsible for removing us. As you may imagine, pragmatic politics would no go over well with either Republicans or Democrats, who are more interested in winning than governing honestly.Beyond-The-Spectrumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05667211181316579607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5007538540383405389.post-91982789705604857222010-09-07T10:55:36.033-04:002010-09-07T10:55:36.033-04:00Ok...after reading this and your last posting, its...Ok...after reading this and your last posting, its obvious your not either a Repub or a Dem...so what are you exactly???Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
