Remember in November

Callmesick, so it has become obvious that you are not only a commie and a socialist, you are racist.
The woman is a insult to all Black AMERICANS. And she got fired for it.

agreed, and I wrote that already.

Yes Callmesick, this mixed race AMERICAN is pointing out the obvious.
You are a racist.

HH

this descendant of slave-owners will point out what is obvious to all, Happy(Sarge): you are a moron.

[callmeslick]

you say it like communism is a bad thing

No, he says it like someone who couldn't define Communism or Socialism on a dare. Then again, we're talking about Sarge, who probably couldn't find his own ass using both hands. Or, put another way(I heard this one in Vermont, once, in a funny exchange between two guys at a Moose Lodge), he couldn't figure out how to pour piss out of his boots, if the instructions were on the soles.

These programs will incur greater costs if our nation cranks out a boatload of fatties. It's that simple. Why is it that Daii can see that and you can't?

And taking the same line of "intelligence" from you the Fed should keep an eye homosexuality cuz AIDS ain't cheap either and although it isn't an only fag disease it's more rampant in homosexual circles. But then again your party would have none of that.

And that's the point you thick headed moron. It's not the Fed's business whether a man wants a cock in his mouth or a Big Mac. It's none of your business nor is it none of mine. If I were a betting man I'd say that you prolly experimented in college and you know what the former is like.

actually, you dense soul, I merely explained the line of reasoning, I never said I agreed with it. Actually, I take your point of view that personal conduct is one's own responsibility, and paying for the consequences is also one's own responsibility, whether it be eating, sex, whatever. What I'm saying is that it is consistent, and fair to try to instill positive health habits in kids. Likewise, it's probably wise to try and teach them safe sex practices, too. My own view is that these practices OUGHT to be the responsibility of parents, but as we've noted several times in the past, our whole society has evolved so people don't take personal responsibility for anything. And, before one of you ideological loons says this is all due to Liberals, you can wait with that bullshit until you explain where the personal responsibility falls when you demand a lowering of taxes when we're 10 trillion bucks in debt. I can come up with many more examples, but the trend cuts across the whole society.

Well...you had every opportunity to distance yourself from your remarks when you wrote them, Slick. You chose not to do it. Now, you catch a little flack....and try to wiggle around it...You are right that it is the parents responsibility...and wrong for trying to make excuses for a forth coming government abuse.

And that's the point you thick headed moron.

my 'remarks' were those of someone who can see both sides of an argument having merit. My opinion, for what it's worth, is that, sometime, we in the US have to be able to have mature discussions about personal and government responsibilities. Those discussions won't ever progress if fools like you muddy up the water with lies, exaggerations and stupidity. Nothing that I read consists of anything like government abuse, even if I do feel it is asking too much of government to deal with the matter. Having healthier kids is not abuse, and if parents abdicate the responsibility, who do you think ends up paying the price(hint: it's the same folks always paying the price).

that's fine, because I, for one, treat folks with respect until they get ignorant with me. And, if the locals wanted to have a problem with my choice of drink, I'm sure I could help settle that, too. Fear isn't a big part of my makeup. Still, the reality is that movements like the Tea Party are just a big, freaking joke to the folks in the know,

Got a big red "S" on your undershirt, SOOPER SLICK? Your drink and your pretty clothes wouldn't get your ass handed to you near as fast talking like that would.

I rest my case.

and apparently you rest with a completely empty head. Dude, I've been in more tough gin mills, biker bars and backwoods joints than you could ever dream of entering. Never a real problem. And, yes, I'm every bit as opinionated in person as I am here. Every bit. And, I'll order whatever the fuck I want, although it's sort of dimwitted to try and find good gin in a lot of those places(I move on to bourbon). You seem not to understand one thing about me, though. I was raised to respect any man who works hard at any job to support himself and his family. I live by that.
A lot of what I rail against here has nothing to do with what you or anyone else does to make money, nor how much money they have. It's about folks who DO work hard(and, yes, Wullie, I include you in that group, as I have no reason to doubt your word) getting sold a bill of goods by other folks just trying to hoodwink them. That's what you all fall for when you suck up the lies on Faux News, or let some sharpie like Jim DeMint, or an obvious opportunist like Sarah Palin, sell you a load of shit so they can make money. It likely never will occur to you that I have your interests in higher regard than Rupert Murdoch or that guy in Tennessee running the Tea Party show. Further, I have nothing to gain from it. I have little to lose, financially, either. I'll keep making money, no matter what side wins in most any election. My only reason for concern is that I see a society where folks with serious, entrenched money are being separated economically from the rest of society, and that a lot of folks who view themselves as 'middle class' are, in reality sinking into a pit their descendents will rot in, if shit doesn't change. I don't want to see that sort of country, and I really don't want my grandchildren to have to deal with that sort of reality, which won't end up very pleasant even for those with money. For the umpteenth time, and try to listen this time: it's not about ideology, it's about the people of this country re-learning how to treat all sides of the issues with respect and building consensus to move forward.

You presented one side of the total remarks...and you are still "wigglin"....Please to point out one lie..or exaggeration? The presumption that the government in Mass. took by sending the kid home with a "Fat Report Card with the inference that you stated " costs the taxpayers " is a complete abuse.... A few years ago, it would have been none of their damned business...now with govt. health care, it is....and that's a continuation of future abuses....and they will come...just like this one.... What you fundamentally don't understand is as simple as this....I don't need the government to tell me one damn thing.....I tell them when I vote.....

[callmeslick]

apparently, your vote was in the minority. Or, in this case, you had no vote, since you live in Texas, and how people choose to prioritize things in Massachusetts in none of your fucking business. That's the beauty of a republic! I spoke up for one side, as you assclowns had beaten the opposite side to death, without ever getting to the real issue: responsibility for upbringing.

[Wullie]

I was raised to respect any man who works hard at any job to support himself and his family. I live by that.

That is very evident in your posts as one "in the know"..........

I'll do my best to keep that in mind.
