It is easy to be a liberal when your surrounded by mouth breathing neo-cons...you are right. What you have wrong is that it is a minority of people who want free shite....everyone wants free shite. The most conservative people among us will have a fricking conniption fit if they have to pay a few more cents a gallon for gas so they can drive down a paved road...they will claim that they are upset because the government is inefficient, which it no doubt is, but if it was Apple running the DOT and their costs for using the hiway went up they would bitch about it. Liberals want to take your shite and give it to someone else.....conservatives want to keep their shite and get as much of other peoples shite as they can.

No I know that the legions of conservatives among us like to claim the title of producer for themselves but we are all on the teat as much as any welfare queen you can name. Like it or not we are a social people and as such we will always eventually wind with a socialist economy. Yall can fight it as much as you like....nothing like raging against the machine when you are young....but it is a battle you will lose.

bullshite.

Look, attempt to rationalize reasons for being a supposed "Liberal" all you like, but stop making asinine assumptions and strawman arguments that have zero basis of fact simply because they sound convenient for your point of view.

Conservatives want less Federal regulation and control so that local governments can properly legislate their local constituency.

And when that happens, "efficiency" isn't a national concern because it happens much more naturally when locals govern locally.

Using gas costs as an example is also retarded. Do you realize that if our Federal Government would allow new refineries to be built and Federal land to be drilled and a national pipeline stretching from Canada to the Gulf straight down the middle of the country, that the US would become the Saudi Arabia of Natural Gas?

We have 300+ years of natural gas under our country and that's just what we know about with only a fraction of exploration. We could not only eliminate unemployment by becoming the world's new fossil fuel exporter/supplier, but we could double or even triple the country's GDP. Do you understand what that would do? Everyone would have good paying jobs. In fact, there would be a surplus of jobs. The 50 million people on welfare would plummet to a fraction of that. Our national debt would be paid off in only a few years and then we'd start building back up Social Security and other liabilities that a grossly in the red. The government would be able to lower taxes by double and still make twice the revenue.

You see, I shouldn't have to be worried about gas prices needing to be raised for a tax to help pave roads. If the Federal Government would stop being so fricking corrupt and manipulating our way of life, that wouldn't even be an issue.

LESS GOVERNMENT! That's what's needed. TRUE campaign finance reform that COMPLETELY stops the ability for anybody or anything to influence politicians. No more non-profits, PACs, corporations, or individuals donating hundreds of millions to either party. No more facilitating the bribery and corrupting of politicians in any way possible.

If they did this, everything would soon resolve itself through the system of government that the Constitution already put in place. A true Constitutional Republic of, for, and by the People.

And this just shows what's wrong with you frickin Libs today. You have no concept of how to actually SOLVE problems. You just want to complain about shite, blame Conservatives for being just as fricked up as you are, and then go on pushing the talking points given to you by your masters.

Conservatives don't want to keep their shite and get as much of other people's shite as they can. Shove these types of straw arguments up your arse. Real Conservatives want to EARN their shite and then see if they can EARN even more, and not be forced to give it away to people who refuse to earn their shite.

And we are not "all on the teat as much as any welfare queen you can name." Again with your bullshite strawman arguments.

We absolutely 10000000% do NOT have to "always eventually wind up with a socialist economy." That is just bullshite Marxist nonsense. You are a brainwashed fool with obtuse and close-minded beliefs that are based on nothing more than opinion and some form of biased indoctrination by whomever or whatever taught you such notions.

And frankly, I refuse to buy what you're trying to sell. And that's because I'm a free person and you're selling slavery. Well frick that shite. You... are... wrong.

Dear Mr. Wilson, 


Your recent comments concerning Old South dress attire seemed to hit a nerve with many. As an eighth generation Georgian ,I take offense with your councils decesion to ban clothing worn by my ancestors because you deem them as racist. Please help me understand what is racist about wearing period garb?  Why do you want these children  to be ashamed of their ancestors? Why am I paying university officials to publicly ridicule my children's ancestry and heritage. This decision is treading on dangerous ground, imo. If this is what you consider progress, you should set the bar a little higher. I will question state lawmakers in the coming day's on these decisions (under your leadership), and what (if anything) can be done to  stop the destruction and denigration of our history .


With Regrets,

Thank you for contacting the University of Georgia to express your concern. 


This choice was made by student leaders of our fraternities and sororities, and we respect their decision. Although I was only present for 15 minutes of the meeting, the term "racist" was never used and has not been used since then by the students or staff here at the university during discussions regarding this matter.


Again, thank you for sharing your concerns.

I'm 100% positive the chapters were approached first by administration. I'm not sure what the tradeoff was though.


If the kids don't have the nuts to stand up for their own traditions, not sure if I should give a damn.

Your defining conservatism....not modern conservatives in the United States. Conservatives in the US today no more care about smaller government than a man in the moon. Here is a hint....there aren't enough conservatives in public service in the United States to field a baseball team. There certainly aren't any conservative Democrats and the number of conservative Republicans is miniscule. Of course I know that as long as they pay lip service to shrinking government and cutting taxes and have an R after their name ya'll are completely satisfied in the belief that they can do no wrong. Oh, and by the way, there are also no liberal Republicans and very few liberal democrats in the United States....they are all the same...leave PoDunk USA as moderately succesful business people, go to the state capital or Washington and leave in a few years wealthy and suddenly their friends and family are wealthy as well....and as long as they have the right letter after their name they can do no wrong. You are on the right track...as soon as you come to the realization that there is no conservative movement in the United States and it has nothing to do with political parties you will be completely right...as of now you seem to think that a label means something....and that something makes some sort of difference....meanwhile politicians can do anything they dam well please and we blame whichever side we dont identify with...
