They are, to say the least, seriously mentally challenged and corrupt to the core.
This reminds me of the comedy sketch where the cops get together and they say "KNOW YOUR DOPE FIEND". "This is called a roach because it looks like a cockroach to a hophead..."
Perhaps they have already infiltrated the mush-brained ideologues who run the Presbyterian, Methodist, and Episcopalian Churchs, as well as certain Catholic Orders.
Not a whole lot of difference between neonazis and neocommunists.
We’re a republic you idiot, not a democracy.
(not you, 2ndD)
Very little. Obama reads this communist garbage every day.
Zero hates both democracy and republicanism. He wants to be dictator.
Perhaps? Already happened decades ago!
The conservative idea of God-given rights is important. However, it only goes so far. God would not want us amending the Constitution in a way that rewards the individual things they have not earned. This is where the modern conservative movement really clashes with the left. God-given rights are only meant to protect individuals from the state or collectivism.
"God given rights" mean held by ALL men EVERYWHERE. That based on past ruling systems, our founding fathers wanted to limit the powers of government from taking away or imposing controls on these BASIC human freedoms.
Man's law is something else altogether.
Faulty premise and extrapolation on this point.
The Commies are too smart to let those guys in the door.
Sounds like an antiChristian screed. Hate speech. A series of strawman arguments to disrespect those who follow the Christian faith.
Communists are atheists. That was the State religion of the Soviets. Followers of other faiths were persecuted. So much for any tolerance of our Constitution.
Here are my theoretical assumptions: I am a free individual and so are you. I am not your slave and you are not my slave.
Any attempt to dismantle those assumptions will involve the chains of slavery and the whip of government power, and since the left is the side wielding them I can only assume that they are intended to put me in slavery to their goals.
The social safety net becomes a velvet rut to those who never bother to try to crawl out. A velvet rut may be comfortable but it also can become a coffin from which you never escape.
You are supposed to bounce off a net and escape harm. Not raise generations off the dole with no one moving upward.
“At the basis of most libertarian theory is the idea that human beings have an exceptional consciousness, and that this consciousness can be developed into something greater.”
Um, no. The basis of most libertarian theory is that each person is best suited to know what is best for that person, and they should be free to make such choices, for good and bad, tempered by the rights of others and the necessity of living in a complex society.
That's where any freedom-loving person will disagree. If government gives you rights, it can also take them away.
Many lies surrounded by a few nuggets of truth.
