Then they would have to run on ideas, instead of hand outs and free stuff. We are being robbed. And our money is buying votes that we would never ever cast! Quote

That's why they keep voting for those who promise them handouts, right? That's why they keep listening to those who SAY conservatives and Tea Party types have harshness, disdain and blame, rather than going first hand to find out for themselves?

Ted Oplinger Posted April 9, 2013 Posted April 9, 2013 It would seem he must take at least one a day, to keep reality from gaining a firm grasp on his consciousness. I took the red bill 35 years ago - before conservatism found a champion in one President Reagan. I have watched the Left ignore me at first, then ridicule me. When that didn't work, they attack me with propagandized stereotype, caricatures, smears, and the like. Since that isn't working either...funny, I have watched all my friends suffer the same things as well...

I don't think they were manufactured or mysteriously distributed until the Tea Party were they. How could you possibly have had conservative ideology before you were brainwashed by the Tea Party.

Moderators lazarus Posted April 10, 2013 Moderators Posted April 10, 2013 That's why they keep voting for those who promise them handouts, right? But 70% of all benefits go to white people not black and latinos. ......counties with the fastest-growth in food-stamp aid during the last four years voted for the Republican presidential candidate in 2008.” These included Republican strongholds like King County, Texas, where 96 percent of voters supported Romney.

PLEEEEASE explain to me why everything is about race with you? It is actually very sickening that every political post by you has race at the bottom of it. Grow the heck up and stop it. Quote

Look what they did just lately to Ben Carson That's what you get when you allow others to think for you, Laz. It's why I said on another thread you just have no clue as to what conservative thought is. All you do is mouth off the trashy talking points that are fed to you as to what you're supposed to think the conservative side is. Just not too much independent thought there in your posting. And you wonder why I call your posts a troll trait? Do, please, repeat how 70% of welfare recipients are white, when on another thread, it's listed as 39% white, 38% black? Do you even know where King County, Texas, is??? Do you know what the county economy is predominated by? What the demographics are? What the fastest growing segments of the population are, and who they are inclined to vote for?? Didn't think you'd developed your argument out that far. You're just wanting to race-bait yet again with foolish straw arguments.

Guest Posted April 10, 2013 Posted April 10, 2013 In Laz' defense, his gross ignorance and racism is not ALL his fault. (A lot of it is, but not all) He is bombarded with it daily by the mainstream media, and the kooks on the left, shaping his world view and telling him what he is supposed to think. And of course he dutifully comes here and repeats it to us. LOL But sadly, he will never be able to think for himself, unless he can take off the race glasses. I would like to see that. Quote

bonnie Posted April 10, 2013 Posted April 10, 2013 That, Bonnie, is one of the funniest things I've ever seen you say. I love it, and wish I had come up with it. Glad I gave you a chuckle but it really wasn't meant to be all that humorous.) Think about what has been said in various discussions and it can't be any other way. The slams to Ben Carson are a perfect example. We have been told that people that know him are disappointed in him.Unless that claim to know him is made simply because they know who he is,it really says a lot about Ben Carson the man.And it isn't pretty. At 62? this man is really unable to have developed his own beliefs and opinions and will be influenced by the Tea Party to say something totally opposite from what "these that know him" have come to expect of him.Which is the real Ben Carson? Would you trust a man like this?Or want such a wishy-washy person to be a trusted friend? Yet it is also stated that if Ben Carson was nuanced in what he said,he would have been accepted.Does that mean he was actually right in what he said and what he believed but that liberals needed it a little more soft pedaled?Or shaded a little more delicately? Is Ben Carson's sin that he wasn't nuanced enough and didn't offer delicate shadings of truth? Definition of NUANCE 1 : a subtle distinction or variation 2 : a subtle quality : nicety 3 : sensibility to, awareness of, or ability to express delicate shadings (as of meaning, feeling, or value) For anyone to say that conservative ideology is a new thing that was developed by the Tea Party is completely foolish.It is insulting and meant to be so towards those that have any ideology in common with the Tea Party.Yet there is a noticeable lack of anything except that "they wear long dresses and the hymns they sing.Never heard the Tea Party sing hymns but who knows. Been done in this forum by many when they lack anything else. Conservative values aren't really that complicated or unheard of but if something similar is said on radio,OOPS,you have fallen into the Tea Party trap.Couldn't possibly have thought that before the Tea Party. Unlike liberals,most conservatives I know do not want truth delicately shaded. Straight out,they can handle it Quote Everything you do is based on the choices you make.

LOL, Your vision may have been affected by the fact that I typed "white people". Read my post again. Quote: Do you even know where King County, Texas, is??? Do you know what the county economy is predominated by? What the demographics are? What the fastest growing segments of the population are, and who they are inclined to vote for?? LOL, Is this like... "do you listen to Savage"? Or "do you get your talking points from Huff P?". Seems like you are so locked into the Tea Party world that an alternative view makes your head explode. Trying to suggest I'm stupid again? Stop posting if its so tiresome to respond to me. If you seriously think I'm race baiting or trolling complain or stop whining about it, please! Quote Great spirits have always found violent opposition from mediocrities.

OzarkWoman Posted April 15, 2013 Posted April 15, 2013 Seems like you are so locked into the Tea Party world that an alternative view makes your head explode. Look in the mirror. You do nothing but post the progressive liberal point of view, so you must do nothinbg but read and listen to nothing but liberal stuff. You see, whatever you say any of us are, you are the same, just 180 degrees the other way. Quote
Ted Oplinger Posted April 15, 2013 Posted April 15, 2013 OW - it is called projection. The exact behavior the so-called "progressives" engage in, they project onto whoever they oppose. Why? Because it's what THEY would do to the Left were they on the opposing side. It is far easier for the Left to paint, rather than understand.
