		<description>PeiKoviIan at 12:31, that was pretty aware of you.
I like the recognition that Liberals are never sure of anything, which of course makes anything possible including flying unicorns and morally acceptable baby murder disguised as a woman&#039;s choice.
What kind of woman would chose to kill their unborn baby?</description>

		<description>Ever since WW2, Liberals have said “Look, certainty leads to action, which leads to police states, which leads to violence. Therefore, in order to keep the peace, let’s never be sure of anything.” Ever since, they’ve pushed “moral equivalence,” “mulitculturalism,” “social justice,” and any public policy that cripples the strong as if that could also raise the weak. They’ve pushed the continuous growth of government and the continuous dismantling of free markets. They’ve pushed welfare states which must become police states, and they will defend their errors with violence.</description>

		<description>“A callous disregard for the rights of others is the first step towards union membership, organized crime, or party politics.”

The day we were born in the UNITED States of America – or the day our parents became citizens – as children, we all became part of our nation’s Social Contract.

Don’t agree with that Social Contract?  Great!  Elect a President who will support privatizing Social Security, eliminating the SEC , repealing the Fair Labor Standards Act,  reducing federal food and unemployment aid to our citizens, dismantling the Federal Reserve, de-funding public education, and voucherizing healthcare for the elderly and disabled.  

We just completed our national election about these very issues.  Voters believed the best way of ensuring our citizens&#039; general welfare - and maintaining individual freedom under the rule of law – was Democracy.  We reject the Libertarian ideology that our vote was part of a &quot;primitive mythos&quot; or &quot;looting&quot;.

And in the end, a majority of Americans also rejected the Libertarian candidate AND the Republican candidate along with the proposed Ryan budget.  Plenty of room in the planet&#039;s vast empty areas to set up a Libertarian utopia and prove the gift of knowledge.</description>

		<description>The primitive mythos of the Democrat says support comes undeserved like grace from above, and it is taken from those who worked, while he tells the looted they deserve his contempt. A callous disregard for the rights of others is the first step towards union membership, organized crime, or party politics.  Ask any Democrat if he isn’t the secret genius in the room, the end product of evolution, the reason a &quot;creationist economy&quot; was created at all, for his benefit, so he can have power without effort, and the gift of knowledge without thinking. The Third World is your intellectual home.</description>

		<description>Anyone who can’t tell the difference between Ron Paul, Paul Ryan and Ayn Rand shouldn’t have a keyboard.

POSTED BY: PEIKOVIIAN &#124; DECEMBER 30, 2012, 12:21 AM 

Anyone who can&#039;t tell the similarities between Ron Paul, Paul Ryan and Ayn Rand shouldn&#039;t have a keyboard.   There is a reason why no nation on the planet has a Libertarian government.  

If Americans wanted Libertarianism, we&#039;d have cast more than one million votes for Gary Johnson. Plenty of room and time to set up the paradise you support - in countries without government or taxes like Somalia.  BACKWARD!</description>

		<description>POSTED BY: LOFROMMO1 &#124; DECEMBER 29, 2012, 2:58 PM 2:58 PM that&#039;s why the last time the PRESIDENT DEMANDED to raise the debt ceiling, he made it clear that he wants enough money to get him past the election and the REPUBLICANS fell for it. 
But everyone forgets that HE was the ONE who said raising the debt ceiling by billions is UN-AMERICAN, now he wants to raise it again by TRILLION, so WHO is UN-AMERICAN.</description>

		<description>VICTORIA said: &quot;NONE of this is the President&#039;s fault&quot;  &quot;We ALL can benefit from this President&#039;s greatness:&quot;  What greatness??? There is none! Obama has made everything worse than ever. He is a total failure. The problem is Obama. Obama has no intention of reducing the deficit. He has a spending problem, like an alcoholic on a never-ending spree in a liquor store. He wants more money so that he can satisfy the needs of the takers who put him in office. That is all that he wants. You&#039;re a typical liberal, VICTORIA. Completely blinded and brainwashed. Sad and pathetic.</description>
