You’re exactly right. That Beck is so in love with Penn Juliette says a lot about what he really believes. It’s beginning to look more and more like he’s trying to lead conservatives to the Libertarian party.
Get the government out of the EDUCATION business. Then you won’t have it to worry about. You can then use SOCIETAL pressures to show your disapproval of the homosexual lifestyle. Which is the way it SHOULD be.
Except she was a dedicated atheist.
....Bravo, Penn Jillette, Last time I posted about Mr. Jillette speaking his mind was on Larry King, and all I got back was sh!t about, Why are you watching him? Or fook him, if he’s there. (King). Same drivel from this forum for 8 years bashing third partys, and now the tin hats from the third party are celebrated, and they need to be included in the Gee Ohhh foookin Pee! Cause uuuhhh someobody fooked up the last election, ?!? ,.!,,
So exactly WHAT is your disagreement with the article? Where is he wrong and why?
I meant, of course, that his sthick is not to talk, so “he doesn’t speak for anyone” comes from that. Their TV show takes on BS every episode, so you can tell both of them have firm views and libertarian minds.
and the smokin’ hot Remi Spencer.
The maxim ‘Nothing but perfection’ may be spelled ‘p-a-r-a-l-y-s-i-s’: Churchill
So suppose you do know what would be best for someone else. Is it right of you to force them to do it whether they want to or not?
Though Beck was ill today the Judge had the loonie Libertarian Ron Paul on today, and Beck had the other loonie on yesterday that said he wouldn't care if Israel disappeared.
If he continues this vein he will lose the people that count.
That makes about as much sense as anything else I've read about politics since I've been 'paying attention'. I wouldn't be a BIT surprised if what you said were true. We no longer have two parties, we have two classes with opposing interests; on one side you have the political uber class, which is made up of most all politicians along with their beneficiaries and dependents, and on the other you have people like us who want to just do the best for themselves and their families as they can. The political class and everyone that depends on them can only exist by using the outcome of OUR success and labor, both current and future. It has grown so out of control they are even spending money WE haven't even yet produced. It's long past the time for a revolt!
Sadly many people do, and though you don't think you are discriminating, the dismissive attitude of Christians as weak minded cripples that need a crutch, is attack enough.
By the way that is a quote from Former Governor Jessie the Body Ventura.
It's the asset forfeitures and federal grant money for SWAT teams that drive the major crazyness. Follow the money.
A hundred years ago, there were no laws against cocaine or heroin. Prior to passage of the Harrison Narcotics Act in 1914, people could buy opiates in the local pharmacy. While there were a number of addicts, social controls kept a lid on things.
Since there was no welfare, anybody who became an addict ceased to be productive and became a burden on his or her family, who would have a strong incentive to deal with the addict. Not surprisingly, drug abuse became a big problem around the same time that welfare programs eliminated much of the consequences of allowing somebody to become an addict.
Bingo. EXCELLENT point. Thanks for making it. I think I'll use it.
Anyone who believes in using the power of the State to control, in any way, the non-coercive, voluntary behavior of other people. You, for example.
Full on gayness in the military? no thanks.
Volunteering for the military is negotiating a contract.
If the military chooses to regard certain acts as conduct prejudicial to good order and discipline it can do so and charge those in violation of the contract they signed.
Not if the Libertarians prevail over American culture and laws.
Homosexuals: 1.3 Personal Relationships (2008 Libertarian Party Platform)
Sexual orientation, preference, gender, or gender identity should have no impact on the rights of individuals by government, such as in current marriage, child custody, adoption, immigration or military service laws. Consenting adults should be free to choose their own sexual practices and personal relationships. Government does not have the authority to define, license or restrict personal relationships
We already discussed that.
Full on gayness in the military? no thanks.
Just like Ronald Reagan I don’t go for that Libertarian “let it all hang out” stuff.
And what makes you think it does not?
Frankly, I'm sick to death of PSAs promoting everything from the Peace Corps to "buckle up." And with 0bama in the White House, it's only going to get worse, I'm afraid.
The government promoting morality is (borrowing from Penn Jillette's analogy) like a slaughterhouse pushing vegetarianism. You don't need to ask why.
