i'm finding that the conservatives here have a woeful lack of
knowledge about current events...
Firstly, I disagree with you labeling them "conservative." They don't
really appear to be that. I think radical right (radical for this
country anyway) would be more appropriate. I'm a fiscal conservative
for sure. I'm a liberal when it comes to social issues.

Secondly, I'm shocked by the seeming lack of knowledge about current
events also. I think that's not really the case. I think it's more of
ignoring facts when they're inconvenient.

I'm happy to reevaluate the performance of Obama and/or the Dem.
"leadership" in Congress as necessary. The latter are truly dropping
the ball right now, and I strongly believe that Obama got involved too
late in the process. I don't see those on the radical right honestly
evaluating those politicians (and other, e.g., Beck, Rush, Wilson,
Palin, Cheney) on the right who are leadership roles (in name or in
fact).
It's good to see you have found your 'niche' here, right between Harry
and w3fh, with Donnie as a chaser.

If you find things too shocking, there really are a lot of political
groups where your expertise would be immensely appreciated.
She is a fiscal conservative, in her words, meaning she wants to make
and keep her own money. On social issues, she doesn't mind throwing YOUR
money around. It's so easy to be a liberal socialist, don't you think?

I'm pretty sure that I've donated a lot more of my hard-earned money to
charity that you. I'm certain that I've donated more of my precious time.
I'm also betting that you don't do much of either. Feel free to tell me
otherwise, of course.

Based on the information you have provided I can easily say you are wrong.
Move over Donny we have another dip**** on board.



Really? What information? Please be specific. I'd like to know how you know
how much I make, paid in taxes, or donated, plus the number of hours of time
I've committed over the last, say 10 years. Or, feel free to highlight your
charity.


Thank you. You seemed pretty sure at the time. (40/love)
