My concern is for those who come here to read what has been posted. I wonder what they will think. If they've just been told what a conservative is via msnbc, they can come here and see for themselves. What will you cause them to see?

After eating your young, destroying by friendly fire all of your fellow patriots, maybe you can look in the mirror and see what is wrong.

Just know, this thread is an example of why people quickly grow weary and remain uninvolved.

When people preach less gov't, more self control but don't practice it, at the least there is a trust issue. Maybe we don't need to wonder why it's like pushing a rope sometimes. This is why websites get monitored (aka more laws) to preserve the intent of the website (aka public good) because users are near sighted and self absorbed (aka lack self control).

Perhaps, we just have a increment size issue at hand?  As an X'er, I am fed up with mollycoddling those that go the get along path.  On top of that, I really am not concerned with the aesthetics in confronting Progressives no matter which side of the aisle they sully either.  Spurning, ridiculing, jeering... nope.  Doesn't bother me in the least.  So, call 'em socialists... call 'em progressives... call 'em whatever it is that floats your boat; they are on both sides of the aisle and they both suck equally.

The children thing?  That's a given.  I also advocate home schooling for those that are able to do so.

So, I guess the real difference being... the size of our steps.
