the more I fear for our civil rights. People have sex. There is war, murder, rape, mutilation, etc., all over this world and it has been this way for eons. Take your religiosity to a deserted planet and you can squeeze your Bible all you want. It is MY right not to live under your rules or beliefs.

Intolerance??? sm
So I'm intolerant because I have a biblical world view but those who would tell me to go live on a deserted planet aren't intolerant?
Amazing.
Those who say that freedom of speech includes allowing p*orn to be accessible to children at school and in public libraries tell me that I do not have the freedom to express my religious beliefs?
Incredible.
What IS this world coming to? Living on a deserted planet may soon become preferrable to living next door to the likes of you.
Is that what liberals are about, really? Intolerance? nm

Thank you - Intolerance is the worst religion of all

Please post examples of hatred and intolerance...sm
that you say describes the Republicans, please.
Other than Hannity, maybe, I can't think of any, so don't include him please. He sometimes is an island to himself. And don't include Rush, he doesn't hate democrats either, you just perceive him to.
Now O'Reilly, he's just plain weird these days, can't say hatred comes from him, he really does try to be fair and balance, no matter what the dems say about him. He's so fair and balanced, he leans too far to the left a lot lately. Can't figure that one out for the life of me, and dems still say he's banked far to the right...lol
Across the board, what I see, is the intolerance coming from the liberal democratics, one of which I used to be, oh so many moons ago.
I disagree with their platform as it has evolved, however.
Particularly the free speech thing, which only applies to them.
Examples please, without the above caveats.
Your stick-up-your-butt rigidity and intolerance -
What goes around, comes around, and people who think with their retentive anuses instead of their minds, usually get what's coming to them in the end. So if that's the thinking and the politics you align with, then I'm just so very happy for you.
You've been spouting off for weeks with reams and reams of copied and linked material that you think was written by God himself. You criticise every post that suggests that the poster is of another party, or even that they are open to ideas other than YOURS.
And the REALLY sad thing is, you actually think that what you write actually MATTERS, and that people listen to what you say and think, and that they actually care. Well know what? Most people on here don't give a flying F_ _ K what you think.
Case in point. Complete intolerance for any view other than their own.
This is what the Democratic party has become.
Intolerance goes both ways, and your post should be directed to all on this board....sm
not just the conservatives.
In fact, you yourself, have posted to the extreme pro-Obama, if I'm not mistaken. (unless I'm thinking of someone with a similar name, if so, a thousand pardons).
Depending on which day you come, either side of the political agenda has their say and sway, way to the extreme.
Some of us tend to be in the middle, sometimes more to the right, sometimes more to the left.
Myself, these days, I'm sick and tired of McCain, and still can't stand Obama.
But you and anybody else are free to have your say.
Just don't attempt to say it's all one-sided, because it's not. And if you were fair, it's usually one-sided in favor of Obama, not McCain.
I, personally, am sick of politics in general, all ways around, with no good candidate, really, on either side of the spectrum.
Are you also the type who...
believes he didn't do enough to prevent 911? Because it seems people want it both ways.. Protect me and don't let anything happen to us, but for crying out loud don't DO anything that might be unpopular or make somebody mad. You can't appreciate the difficult position? If a suitcase nuke showed up here and was traced back to Saddam you'd be saying look, there was all that evidence and intelligence from countries all over the world and Bush ignored it and didn't depose Saddam. He really can't win. So he was bold and made a move. More than some presidents would do, lest they find themselves down in the polls (which at times seems more important to some people than doing the right thing). Maybe if Clinton had been a little more proactive during the 90s, while Al-Qaeda was growing and continually ratcheting up their attacks, 9/11 could have been averted. Who knows.
I would like to have had the same type...
questions asked of Bill Clinton when he ran for Pres the first time having been only the governor, one week after he started. He would have done no better, and he was running for the #1 spot.
She was good. She didn't fall into any of the traps he tried to lay for her...including the 3 times he asked her about hypothetical about Israel bombing Iran's nuclear facilities. He tried his best to trap her. She didn't bite. I just wish we could have a nonpartisan person interview McCain, Palin, Obama, and Biden, just ask a simple question not meant to trap and let the person answer it...and not badger them when they don't like the answer trying to get the answer the interviewer wants. Sigh.
But can she type?
I'm talking about the above poster's comment about Palin being "smart and good-looking." No one is contesting her intelligence (her readiness for the office of VP, maybe, but not her overall intelligence), & I'm pointing to the fact that being "good-looking" is a criterion that's only being applied to the woman candidate.
Do you really believe this type of
Inspired and enlightening as your beliefs are, I do not believe everyone on the planet in the last 2000 years has had the opportunity to accept or reject Christianity. Personally, I just could never believe in a god who condemns his children for eternity due to an accident of birth... nor can I imagine (without a shudder) spending eternity singing hosannas next to the likes of you. Did anybody get into heaven before the crucifixion?
You mean like "sometimes I think" - type
personal attacks? You have no moral high ground on which to make that demand.
Again, I am so afraid I can't type
I meant vote against Obama. You people have got to stop scaring me with these stories of Muslims taking over the world. How will I ever sleep at night?
How is it a stereo type?
It's true. When my husband worked for Mediacom Cable the people in the government housing would have the cable in their son's or daughter's names (some of them were 5 years old). Others buy cars either with cash from under the table or through a relative or friend so it is not listed as income or assets. There is no stereo type in that. White people, black people, hispanic people, they all do it.
I walked into the home of a child that I teach at youth group last week to bring some food. His mother doesn't work, no idea where his father is, but there is a huge flat screen tv in their single wide trailer! Talk about mixed up priorities. Can't wash clothes because the washer doesn't work, but we sure as heck can watch ESPN!
That's the problem with welfare. There are so many people on it we can't possibly keep enough caseworkers to check up on them! Instead of starting new programs on top of this one, why not create some jobs by hiring more caseworkers and investigating why these people are on welfare for 5, 10, even 15 years? What is keeping them from working? Is it legitimate, or is it like the white guy that used to live next door to me "I got a messed up ankle" yet he's out in the road playing street football. See, no stereotype, there are deadbeats everywhere, of all colors, shapes, and sizes! :)
This is exactly the type of comments we don't need.
Discuss issues but don't post snide remarks. Simple as that. Worship has no place on this board.
I wish I could type 1000 wpm.
I would have stated who and what they are debating. Kerry was furious. Sen. Sessions (R-AL) doesn't seem to want to work with anyone on "the other side" either.
Sen. John Ensign (R-Nevada) had a really good speech. He went through the whys and why nots of how this whole mess started. He is willing to work with the other side but he stated that the other side has to work with them, too, which so far, is not happening. He stated that the stimulus package was pushed through the house without any debate, without anyone seeing exactly what was in it, and it was the wrong thing to do. He doesn't care that O wants this passed by President's day. It has to be worked out slowly so they don't make the same kind of mistakes that they did with the last stimulus package.
It's not just tax cuts the pubs want. They want some of the spending in there, too, just not the most ridiculous items. They want the infrastructure in but not just 3% of the total package spread out over 4 years. It wouldn't make much of a difference.
Now, on another subject, I had MSNBC on another TV. Surprisingly, they were only allowing sound for the debate when the democrats are speaking. Hmmm.
they will just say he can do other type of work -
My BF cannot do anything he knows how to do because it is all physical work and he has so many limitations imposed on him by the doctor; however, social security said that there were jobs he was capable of doing and will not give him benefits.
OMG - now I'm laughing so hard i cant even type!
LOL
How hard is it to type McCain? Seriously!
.
I did...so angry I can't type straight!...nm
//
I'm so scared I can't even type straight
I meant attic, lol!
Militia type? Because I don't believe Obama...
I don't fill in the blanks like his supporters, and I don't believe in redistribution of wealth? Interesting assessment.
It is probably in a "community type center" in the
apartment building. In my town they are held in the fire station, schools, community centers, etc.
FIFTY-SEVEN States, I believe she tried to type

Could only take a few seconds of this piggy-type man
I have no idea how anyone could listen, much less sit and watch this oink-oink looking man. I saw for a nannosecond and his face screwing up like he had just let one go- might have just needed his fix for the day though.
Okay, don't click a link - type in the URL. (sm)
The URL for the site I referenced is:
http://www.taxdayteaparty.com
You can copy-and-paste it into your browser or type it in, whichever you prefer. I can assure you that there's no virus at the site (my browser checks this), or I wouldn't have recommended it.
I may add.... the Perez Hilton type!

Same sentiment and type of comments are noted on

I MEANT 'not LONG after' - I can't type

Wow, is this the type of person we want in a position of power? (nm)

I'll type slower so you can understand
Durbin's proposal simply RE-STATED EXISTING LAW. Let me rephrase that: Durbin's proposal simply RE-STATED EXISTING LAW. It said nothing about "opening our American media up to foreign countries." What are your sources? Here are mine:

You really ought to peel your mind away from Fox News and the rest of those jokers some time. Communist China running my local TV station? Geez Louise, you're the one who needs to get a clue.
Oh Lord I may be laughing too hard to type.
North, get a grip woman! Are you and A. Nonymous some kind of comedy team? You’re feeding the straight lines to AN and she (he?) is getting the laughs? Wow are your buttons easy to push. I sure hope AN (the drunken cheap scotch/irish nazi) does not stop posting, because this is just too much fun to watch.
Yeah we get it. You’re black, educated and you speak English well. You write well so you probably speak OK too. But you just don’t read so great. Where in any of these posts did AN say you personally were uneducated or did not have a work ethic? Where is the part about you not speaking English? Did you see the word ebonics and just stop reading? If you care so much about all people why are you not standing up for the other two groups mentioned - do you have something against hispanics and hillbillies?
You have to be very worn out from carrying around that big chip on your shoulder. Why don’t you put it down and stop taking offense at remarks that were obviously not aimed your way? The topic was career mooches and freeloaders. You seem to be an MT and have a job or be on the site looking for one. Nobody called you anything - why so defensive?
I type for a local mental hospital
and I go in and get the tapes and bring them home. They don't use a big company for their transcription. I do this as a side job actually. The pay is much better than a big MT company as well. I enjoy typing those type of reports as well.
oops, I posted with the wrong name - just me did not type the above - it was in response to just me

Fine. I will free type it next time. Sorryyyy.
Sheesh!!
Where do think they fit on the Bristol Stool Scale? My guess is type 1 nm

I find by far that the bitter, hateful, jealous type

And most of Fox is based on this type of behavior....Fox a News Station? What a circus!.....nm

I knew you weren't the type -- just adding my own yuck, yuck!!! nm
You cannot type it word for word, just provide a link.
