A bit off topic, but a throught thats been brewing in the brain as of late.

Meh..People who don't believe that both sides of the political aisle in congress and in government are people trying to make money are very blind.

You can feed me all this info about how "Republican A" has all these views and such, but in reality he's up for funds for himself for his re-election campaign. Same with "Democrat B". Thats all they care about, they could truly give a shit about how others are effected because they get their money from Special Interests.

And this is the case WITH EVERYBODY period. Doesn't matter what you really belie

Uh-oh.... you DO realize that most Republicans obsessed with "sucking dick" and putting things "up your ass" have later been found to be closet homosexuals themselves. (i.e. Larry Craig and all the rest of the toilet room tapdancers who have been dragged out of the closet lately)

So when's your coming out party?

The real difference between Democrats and Republicans is Democrats have come out of the closet and Republicans are still in it trying to fool everyone. Larry Craig still thinks he can trick us into thinking he's not gay but we aren't buying it and the longer he denies it the dumber he looks.

CONSERVATIVES – believe in personal responsibility, limited government, free markets, individual liberty, traditional American values and a strong national defense. Believe the role of government should be to provide people the freedom necessary to pursue their own goals.

Conservative policies generally emphasize empowerment of the individual to solve problems.

LIBERALS – believe in governmental action to achieve equal opportunity and equality for all, and that it is the duty of the State to alleviate social ills and to protect civil liberties and individual and human rights. Believe the role of the government should be to guarantee that no one is in need. Believe that people are basically good.

Liberal policies generally emphasize the need for the government to solve people’s problems.

Really? Is that why they're always crying and whining about "liberals?"

Doesn't that work both ways?

But who makes a point of emphasizing personal responsibility, except for their politicians?
