NOT:



I'm brilliant !!!

I'm voting Democrat because: I believe the government will do a better job of spending the money I earn than I would.

I'm voting Democrat because: I believe white people need to spend their time at the back of the bus.

I'm voting Democrat because: I believe three or four pointy headed elitist liberals need to rewrite the Constitution every few days to suit some fringe kooks who would NEVER get their agendas past the voters.

I'm voting Democrat because: I believe oil companies' profits of 4% on a gallon of gas are obscene but the government taxing the same gallon of gas at 15% isn't.

I'm voting Democrat because: I believe that paying $4.00 a gallon or more is no reason to drill for the mountain of oil we are sitting on in THIS country. We wouldn't want to have to move a couple of Polar bears now would we?

I'm voting Democrat because: when we pull out of Iraq , I trust that the bad guys will stop what they're doing because they now think we're good people.

I'm voting Democrat because: I don't want a stimulus check to spend. Let the government spend it for me.

I'm voting Democrat because: freedom of speech is fine as long as nobody is offended by it.

I'm voting Democrat because: I love the fact that I can now marry whatever I want. I'm going to marry my Brother.

I'm voting Democrat because: I'm not concerned about the slaughter of millions of babies so long as we keep all death row inmates alive.

I'm voting Democrat because: I don't want to eat poison food and drink dirty water. We all know Republicans love that stuff. Ever wonder why the most left wing country in the World ( China ) is the most polluted?

I'm voting Democrat because: I believe that when the terrorists don't have to hide from us over there, when they come over here I don't want to have any guns in the house to fight them off with.

I'm voting Democrat because: I believe that churches should only be allowed for political speeches.

I'm voting Democrat because: I believe that business should not be allowed to make profits for themselves. They need to break even and give the rest away to the employees.

I'm voting Democrat because: I believe that I don't want Doctors who were at the top of their classes to operate on me. I want a government employee who makes $50k a year and couldn't hack it as a contractor or an engineer.

I'm voting Democrat because: I believe that people who can't tell us if it will rain on Friday CAN tell us that the polar ice caps will melt away in ten years if I don't start driving a Prius.

I'm voting Democrat because: I REALLY believe there is no bias in the media. I'm All for CHANGE!!!

 

It's sad, but the change Democrats speak of is merely a token word. Why can't they realize that? I guess it's all part of the show.

 

ROFLMFAO

 

You know, if it were Barak Obama saying all thoes things it would be considered a brilliant, eloquent speach.

It's a shame to me that we may have to endure four years of rhetoric like that because people feel the need to avenge Bush.

 

dont you mean try to survive four years of servitude

 

How about these quotes, PO---

To announce that there must be no criticism of the president, or that we are to stand by the president, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public. (1918)
(Teddy Roosevelt)

We must not confuse dissent with disloyalty. When the loyal opposition dies, I think the soul of America dies with it. (Edward R. Murrow)

I love America more than any other country in this world, and, exactly for this reason, I insist on the right to criticize her perpetually. (James Baldwin)

The nation is divided, half patriots and half traitors, and no man can tell which from which. (Mark Twain)

The government is merely a servant -- merely a temporary servant; it cannot be its prerogative to determine what is right and what is wrong, and decide who is a patriot and who isn't. Its function is to obey orders, not originate them. (again, Mark Twain)

When a whole nation is roaring Patriotism at the top of its voice, I am fain to explore the cleanness of its hands and the purity of its heart.
(Ralph Waldo Emerson, Journals, 1824)

When fascism comes to America, it will be wrapped in the flag and carrying the cross. (Sinclair Lewis)

True patriotism hates injustice in its own land more than anywhere else."
- (Clarence Darrow)

The basis of our political system is the right of the people to make and to alter their constitutions of government."
- (George Washington's Farewell Address, September 17, 1796)

One of the great attractions to patriotism - it fulfils our worst wishes. In the person of our nation we are able, vicariously, to bully and cheat. Bully and cheat, what's more, with a feeling that we are profoundly virtuous (Aldous Huxley)

Patriotism is the last refuge of scoundrels (Samuel Johnson)

Just for a change of pace, you can throw in one of these...

Too bad We, The People have absolutely ZERO influence on our government. Lobbyists and special interest groups run Washington, D.C.

 

How very true..You folks are so worried about the Obamantor---I am more worried about the SIG's---I honestly believe that are founding fathers would have less a problem with McCain and Obama as they would with how business is being done on Capital Hill.

Tim C.

 

The biggest SIG of them all is ALGORE and his chronies. Those crooks are Hellbent on demolishing the USA.

 

Could very well be...

but, there are others who are also equally willing to get their agendas in place.

OK, Chris---how do you propose that we change this so that we can maintain our roads and highways? What source of revenue would you have us tap into to build, to maintain, and to create new roads? Just interested here on this point. (15% is rather steep---so what is your other source of income to alleviate this taxation?)

Tim C.

 

Well, the clowns in Conmgress sure won't come up with any ideas. Better for fresh ideas to come about.

What gives? Nuclearthreat has not shed a single tear in this thread...

 

I am all for the elimintion of unnecessary taxes, but how do we maintian our roads---isn't the idea that the ones who use it carry the obligation to maintain it? If we eliminate this tax, how do we maintain the roads, interstates, etc?

What other source of revenue do we utilize to maintain the ifrastructure here?
