When I was driving to work this morning I noticed a bunch of political signs along the side of the road. The usual McCain and local shit, but a few of em bothered me. There were a few signs for Constables and Sheriffs proclaiming their political affiliation.
Partisan politics has no place in officers upholding the law IMO. I don't want constables arresting people or giving them harsher/more lenient punishments based on their political beliefs. Their job should be to uphold the law without bias Does this bother anyone else? --------------------   |

QUOTE (Psykopath @ Nov 2 2008, 05:51 PM)  k. No, it didn't need to be said. I stated something that had absolutely nothing to do with McCain or Palin, and you go off on some tangent because you think I am clueless or something. If you read what I put about socialism again, it makes perfect sense. Socialism is economic policies that spread the wealth among everyone equally. A bank bailout doesn't spread the wealth. It protects investments. News for you: rich people make more investments than less wealthy people. Your idea of politics and economics is completely skewed. You seem to think that Obama is the farthest thing from Socialism - WRONG. You seem to think that trickle down economics doesn't exist. THAT'S THE MOST LAUGHABLE THING I HAVE EVER READ ON THIS SITE. Dear God. When the richest 400 people in our country are responsible for well over a TRILLION dollars of our economy, how can one not think that trickle down economics drives our economy? Whatever. I'm sick of the masses of blind sheep in this country. Want to know why this country is shit? Because our education system is quickly becoming the worst out of all the 1st world countries. We are shipping our jobs overseas because TAX PRICES for CORPORATIONS AND SMALL BUSINESS IS FUCKING OUTRAGEOUS. It has NOTHING ZILCH NADA to do with the healthcare of this country or the middle class struggling. Those are just results of the underlying problem. Continue to be blinded by his prophetous speaches about "change" and "distributing the wealth." I guarantee if Obama is elected, we are going to be in a hell of a lot worse financial trouble than we already are. Additionally, we will become the world's anus for all those terrorists because they will KNOW they can fuck with us now with a pussy like him in office. My parents are the epitome of a middle class family (ie anyone that makes less than 250k/yr). They know that Obama can't help them. If anything, they will get taxed more to pay for socolistic programs like universal healthcare.

QUOTE (Epic @ Nov 2 2008, 08:32 AM) you know what's funny to me? I'm not necessarily an Obama supporter and still haven't decided who i am voting for, but aren't the bailouts incredibly socialist? and let's not to mention all the anti-terror laws "for our own good." The bailouts teeter on socialism and go completely against the "conservative" ideals. It is one thing for the fed to play with rates but it's another to reward bad behavior. I am torn on the anti-terror laws. I think the unwarranted phone-tapping is over the line and should be done away with. If we keep doing similar things in the name of "freedom" we will be no better than Soviet Russia or McCarthy Era-USA. However, I do think there is a very real war going on against terrorism and I would like to see us continue to stabilize Iraq while moving troops to Afghanistan. One area that Americans are horribly misinformed on is the current usage of foreign oil in the states and how much actually comes from Canada and not the Middle East. There is good reason why OPEC cut production, they are hoping to jack up prices. It failed because a good chunk of our oil now comes from the Canadian tar sands and as long as the price stays at a healthy level ($60-$70 barrel), then that will continue to be our source. -------------------- "There is a level of cowardice lower than that of the conformist: that of the fashionable non-conformist." |

i just got a hard on!
-------------------- A psychotic world we live in. The madmen are in power. How long have we known this? Faced this? And--how many of us do know it? Perhaps if you know you are insane then you are not insane. Or you are becoming sane, finally. Waking up. I suppose only a few are aware of all this. Isolated persons here and there. But the broad masses... what do they think? All these hundreds of thousands in this city, here. Do they imagine that they live in a sane world? Or do they guess, glimpse, the truth...?
