Indeed, we should ban him from NationStates.

Ok, this is whats known as 'Freedom of Speech', people frequently exercise this right on the site to say things like 'bush R sukzor!!!!'
Of course, you can disagree, but thats your buisness.

My opinion...
Well, SOME of the rather extremist leftists are pretty bad, but most of them are fine, after all, both parties are the same, they both hate anything in the other.

I've got a quote from someone considerably smarter than Mr. Weiner--Jon Stewart. When talking about John Ashcroft's recent testimony before Congress, specifically when Ashcroft stated that he had not invoked anything including executive privilege, Stewart said 'You've got to invoke something, a writ of douchebaggery..something!"

Douchebaggery--I'm gonna remember that one a loooooooong time.

And yet we're supposed to give credibility to liberal philosophy because the majority of individuals in with degrees in intellectual fields are liberals?

Of course not. That would be silly. It's just that they're quite obviously more intelligent. As conservatives show only too well.

Wow, you can quote idiots

Bravo :p

Yes, it's actually quite easy... I looked across from your screen name and saw a button labelled "quote." I'll take no credit for that feat.

Now, you on the other hand, deserve some recognition, because, although I can quote idiots, there has to be an idiot around for me to quote! Without people like you, I would be lost. Thanks.

I think it's interesting that you say liberals have higher levels of intelligence than conservatives, Spherical. Did you know that John Kerry wants to cut taxes and increase spending in welfare and education? How do you suppose that is going to work?

And how many liberals realize that the State thinks of itself as God and bases everything it does around that belief? Think about it... they treat publicly educated children as property of the Government, they oppress the people by way of income taxes, property taxes, and another two-page-list of taxes, in order to make themselves stronger, and they treat the populace as a collective bunch of slaves, or in the better cases, immature children that need additional guidance.

I fear to wonder, what would happen if America was invaded? Would there be enough good men to fight for our freedom, or would they all be complaining and protesting and yelling "Impeach the President!" all the time?

When terrorists struck the WTC towers three years ago, nearly everybody who was somebody in the US Government sang "God Bless America" along with the President. Two years later, the Democrats attacked that very same President for organizing a coalition with the purpose of deposing Hussein, who was funding the very same organization called al Qaeda that had sent 19 men to fly planes into our two tallest buildings and the Pentagon. How does that display superior intelligence, I wonder?

A final note: I think the commonly-referred-to-as Conservatives have actually been quite liberal in the use of their power and brains, while the c-r-t-a Liberals have been pretty conservative with theirs. If that statement confuses you, find a dictionary and look up a few things. It'll clear the junk out of your brain and make room for knowledge.

I think "Liberals" are really teh conservative ones.

They want to conserve the environment

They want to conserve our Natural resources

They want to conserve our right to privacy and autonomy

They want corporations to be accountble for their misdeeds.

Good Lord. Right, you can be a liberal and on the left. You can be liberal and on the right. You can be liberal and be in the centre. In the UK, Liberals are almost by definition centrists.

It's not about intelligence, it's about interpretation and principles. We all disagree because there aren't actually that many proven rights and wrongs.

Maverick Battalion, you show nothing but contempt for someone because they are 'stupid', yet you make unsubstantiated (indeed, in some cases wantonly false) claims to back up your own opinions.

Sigh, sigh, sigh.

But I admit, I can be wrong. if so, prove me wrong and link me up.

Er, that's a flat out lie. There has been no proof of any Saddam-bin Laden ties, especially not funding. If anyone was independently funding Al-Qaeda, it was the CIA, although they hadn't been funding Osama since the early 90s.

If anyone was independently funding Al-Qaeda, it was the CIA, although they hadn't been funding Osama since the early 90s.It does of course lead to the question of why the American Right hasn't called for the arrest and trial of everyone involved in funding both Al-Qaeda and Saddam. Surely the good patriots of the far right wouldn't put partisian political interest above the war on terror? If it had been a Democrat they'd be loudly proclaiming it as proof that the Democrats were pro terrorist.

Thank you for your interest. Had you the wit that you think you have, you’d have seen that my comment was directed at some fool who was asking why so many liberals have great education and yet are stupid. See, I decided to answer him in the same stupid vein……unfortunately it went over your head like a mosquito on speed. As for Kerry’s promises, I take them as I take all politicians promises…….let’s just wait and see shall we? I suppose your triumphant riposte will be something like ‘conservatives never lie’……..yeah, right. By the way, it’s quite easy to cut taxes and increase welfare if you get your priorities right. Don’t worry about it, it’s complicated.

Oh, you have a magnificent grasp of the American State. It thinks of itself as God? Is that collectively or independently? And taxes oppress also? I’ll remember that the next time I watch a publicly funded policeman save a damsel in distress, or a soldier gives his life on a foreign field. I’m sorry to hear that you class yourself and your fellow citizens as slaves. Seems like a bit of a waste of the last 250 years to me.

Probably not, if you don’t like paying your taxes to protect yourself, all the good men and women in the world won’t be able to help you much. Still, think of it this way, you’ll no longer be a slave of the government God, you’ll be a slave of someone else’s government God. They say a change is as good as a rest don’t they.

I think your memory is a touch faulty. I didn’t think that only people who were somebody’s were affected. I seem to remember a lot of nobody’s feeling pretty much the same way, as did I, here in England. Your president bombed and invaded the hosts of Quaeda, the Taliban in Afghanistan (out of taxation). What he and his regime then did was to take advantage of what he thought was a good situation and settle some old scores with Sadaam and co. He didn’t care that the world backed and joined him in his ‘punishment’ of Quaeda and that those same allies were not easily fooled into joining him for a murderous adventure in Iraq, a country having nothing to do with 9/11. I’d like to thank Bush and people like you who support him for not only making the world a more dangerous place, but for showing us all just how easy it is to promote terror and terrorism.

I have seven dictionaries sitting here thank you. The Oxford Concise, ‘Slang’, English Grammar, Thesaurus……………but I really don’t feel like justifying myself to an arrogant and ignorant fool like you.

It may seem like a waste of a quarter-millenium to you, but according to my history books, America didn't have a government (and consequently, didn't have taxes) 250 years ago when we won the Revolutionary War. And everybody had their own guns. What do you think the crime rate was?

A waste to you, a degeneration to me. Opinion is a lovely concept.

And, to the people who believe Saddam Hussein was funding al-Queda:

Last I checked, Saddam was a secular dictator. It was about the only thing that can be said about him, aside, perhaps, from the trains running on time. And we all know who that refers to.

Now, being a thoroughly secular sadistic totalitarian bastard, he spent quite a bit of time picking on the religious, especially fundamentalists. He isn't exactly in Osama's little black book with hearts drawn around his name.
