Not trying to tear anything asunder . . . the Libertarian party line is against the war in Iraq Though not every Libertarian agrees with the party line, just like not every Democrat agrees with the party line, just like every Republican agrees with the Party line, and my view is not the only one held by
I was not referring to Bush's current presidency, but rather, his upcoming term, as "lame duck". As you may know, this term usually refers to the end of a second term. Because the president at that time cannot be re-elected, he has less political clout and his policies are less likely to be enacted. When I refer to Bush's upcomin
a) Never said I was a moderate. I've always claimed to be a lefty. You said left leaning moderate in other posts, don't lie, don't be "skeered"!! <TABLE cellpadding=8 width="95%" alig
Grim, give it up . . . you're a Repub. Only if you give up calling yourself a moderate. You know I don't agree with Bush on social issues and economic ones but that does not mean because I don't agree with him that I should seek t
LlamaLamp I see you claiming to be a source of independent political philosophy but alas what I gather from your comment is non-independent partisan Democrat philosophy. Bush is not failing on certain issues, war (though why he let Fallujah go until now is beyond me) and hopefully social security (with the privatization maybe we can finally turn the BLACK HOLE into a money tree for future generatio
The wisdom of John Stuart Mill's quote speaks volumes to myself. Good find, Spc NS. Plinko for John Stuart Mill
Yesterday at the first official meeting of the (soon to be official but unofficial until we elect officers) Libertarian Party of Allen County, a fellow Libertarian introduced this game to pass the time away and I thought it was so nice that I would introduce it here. The idea behind it is to show the absurdity of somebody's idea, by first saying I agree than
Nothing is crap compared to the conspiracy theories floating around claiming the election was stolen by Bush from Kerry, good lord; I thought people could get over it...ah well. The problem is there is not a single universal moral or principal that can be applied universally. Thereby eliminating any presupposed right for someone to declare a war as completely wrong or as completely right from their perspective parties. That is the issue I
And now, talk of the blue states seceding from the Union? Shhh, I said that comment elsewhere. I typed about how the South seceded in the Civil War because of a Republican president who got elected (Democrats were in charge of the South) and the fact that even now today they want to do the same thing a
The finished product (finished until I think of adding more material or after my Philosophy class paper) is located HERE *Note: I moved it to the Philosophy section because that is where I think it belongs since it has nothing to do with Democrat or Republican conspiracy theories or political verbal assaults but more to do with the Philosophical understandings behind w
On Time, On Target, On Topic!! War can neither be defined as right (hooray for the anti-war people) nor can it be defined as wrong (hooray for the war people) and that is the definition put into its simplest terms. For one if war was always wrong than what would be the point in fighting back at all? If war was always right than how come we are n
Your opinion, not mine. To be blase about slavery is depressing when you know full well that was the unmentioned catalyst behind the entire scenario. Granted it is MY opinion but it is backed up from what I have SEEN from the 'so-called' patriotic American
Can shit be justified as holy or unholy? The philosophical ramifications boggle the mind. Plinko!!
Does this mean when you all reverse it the Bush people can chant that Kerry stole the election and Bush is President like the Gore people have done? Turnabout is fair play right? How did you all like the fruit punch Jell-o at Supper today in the Asylum, I thought it was grand!! Plinko!!
Hmm, well I popped on to look at something and nobody has replied to this article besides you, history. Is it too complex, or are they waiting for me to continue the whole deal before commenting, oh well. Got to head off now to the Libertarian Meeting, oooooh spooky!! Grimstar Xunner Plinko!!

I am working on a proposal that I intend to share with the LP outlining a strategy for targetting the '06 midterm elections. If successful, this could give some much needed momentum for the '08 presidential election. I will share the information once I have it together in a marginally cohesive outline.
People also seem to forget that the Lusitania was equipped with 12-six inch guns, making it better equipped for battle than the ships defending the English Channel. Good lord, talking about being loaded to bare with weapons and supplies. Thanks for the info. Now I am off to philosophy
A better prerequisite is that they should spend "quality time" with Kurds and Chaldean people from Iraq and tell those Kurds and Chaldean people to their face that the war is wrong and Bush is wrong, etc. just to see what they should expect in reactions from some other people in the World. Plinko for the Kurds and Chaldeans!!
Of course we'd have to imagine the Republicans nominating a moderate. I doubt that'll happen. Oh yes, we all know how McCain is hardliner, be reasonable here, think outside the box if you have to. Dems nominate a hardliner, the Reps will answer back with a Moderate it is that simple.
Can war be justified as completely wrong or right? Does Diplomacy fail? How many times does it fail before a war ensues or should fail before conflict happens? Can the loss of life be equated with the loss of life with inaction? Will I get to the commenting on the topic at hand or will I keep asking questions? How many of t
Evan Bayh or another figure that can carry the Midwest would be best for the Democratic Party and the best choice would be a moderate or conservative Democrat, since most of America is moderate or conservative, it would be a failed venture to stick with non-moderate candidates. IMO Plinko!!
Congress makes the law Executive enforces the law Judicial interprets the law How hard is it to understand those three basic tenets of our system? If any court gets into the habit of making laws than we have a case of one branch being out of control; I don't want appointed officials making the laws period. Grim
Excuse me, while I dance my way off to Sociology class!! BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! P L I N K O
And don't give me that sh*t that it represents slavery cause that's BS. I'm not giving you that shit; they honor the flag because they believed in the cause of secession and the continuance of slavery. Actually if you want to pour through volumes of Civil War history, you would find out it had a lot
