What is the democrats response to the burning of bibles in Afghanistan? I have heard no response from the President, Senate Majority leaderl, speaker of the House or the DemocratParty chairman . Does that mean they are for burning Bibles or not.If not, what actions have they done to see that this doe not happen again.

The list isn’t supposed to ‘make sense’; it’s intended to identify ideological fracture points in the liberal/left-wing mentality — cases where their underlying principles are inconsistent or applied inconsistently. A similar list could be compiled identifying fracture points for Libertarians. Fruitful areas for investigation might include foreign policy, abortion and intellectual property, all of which are highly controversial in Libertarian circles because they involve premises that logically predate the non-initiation of force principle that provides the arbitrary integrating standard of Libertarian political thought.

This list really doesn’t make sense, too much of it doesn’t follow.

Of course, I don’t agree with Democrats or Republicans because I’m Libertarian. And the only line that you can give for that is:

1. You believe that all people can be different and do what they feel so long as they don’t hurt others, but somehow you also believe that the government shouldn’t regulate that. Seriously, you’re so stuuupid. Silly Libertarian, government always has to control SOMETHING – life doesn’t function without Big Brother!!!ONEONE111!

Seriously.

Quite a good list. And some of the following contributions are cool too. It amazed me how little there is on the vast internet to learn what Democrat politicians want, in contrast to what they claim to want.

So a year ago I ended up doing kind of what you have, beginning my own list. It is of a completely different style than yours. Hmm, wondering now if I had found yours a year ago whether I would have bothered to create something.

In that regard, I am grateful for having not found it then because we really need both if hoping to de-program the MTV and television addicted hordes who merely vote based on which guy sounds the most confident and calm, based on years having been subtly and not so subtly fed the impression by Dan Rather, NPR, Tom Brokaw and CNN that Republicans truly are the evil beings Democrats make them out to be.

It’s probably too late to bother fighting anymore, though I do muster up a few spoonfuls of energy for the war every once in a while anyway. Maybe I should just exercise though.

Anyway, thanks for the list.

Oh, my site is at http:whatdemocratsbelieve.com. Edit that out if you want. I dunno what the policy might be.

I’d be more stung by criticism from someone who cares enough to spell correctly. But what the hell, I have a few moments.

I’m actually not a Republican. I don’t have a political party; I have political values, and I engage in both strategic and tactical activism to advance them as I am able. Sometimes this involves supporting Republicans. At the moment, however, it doesn’t, and as a result I’m currently a registered Democrat. I voted for Hillary Clinton in the California primaries, and I think it’s a sad comment on the current state of American politics that she — amoral, power-lusting bitch that she is — is the least bad candidate on offer for the Presidency in this election. But don’t let the facts about my political beliefs and affiliations get in the way of your ungrammatical and poorly spelled analysis.

Oh, and while I was rereading the list, I thought of a new entry:

Democrats believe that burning an American flag is a constitutionally protected act of free speech, but burning a Mexican flag is a vicious hate crime warranting a prison sentence.

One other thing I think I should mention, since people have been bagging on him in this comment thread. Oscar is actually a friend of mine, and owns the ISP on which this blog resides. We don’t agree on a number of political issues, but we somehow manage to get along in spite of that. (In fact, I was best man at his wedding.) So take note that life is broader than politics.

I too received the list from one of my liberal mates. It’s funny, but not as he and the others intend. For instance, Bill Clinton was not impeached for having sex with a woman. He was impeached for obstruction of justice and lying under oath. Quite a big difference. Bush did not lie about Iraq. What his assertion of WMD wrong? Perhaps (although I believe like others the weaapons are now in Syria) — but it was the same agrument made by Clinton and the UN in numerous resolutions. Those who don’t understand there is a global movement to destroy Western Civilization — wrapped in the garb of religion — are sadly fooling themselves. These people would kill any of us should they have the opportunity. Bush is right on the mark. We must fight these fanatics now for we will fight them sooner or later, and sooner is better in my mind. But, perhaps I’ve strayed from the mark. So let me attempt humor.
To be a Democrat you must believe:
1. Bush directed Hurricane Katrina to destroy the democratic city of New Orleans.
2. Iran is sitting on a sea of oil, but wants to develop its nuclear industry to run electric generators.
3. The NEA is really doing a good job of educating our children.
4. Social Security is broken, but it’s risky to do anything to attempt to fix it.
5. Al Gore really did invent the Internet.

I love the list that Oscar came up with to counter your list. Hilarious, especially his number 1 about compassion for scum-of-the-earth drug addicts but not for a smoker. With his stupid list, he truly sums up how screwed up the thinking of the left is. Sometimes I almost feel sorry for anyone brainwashed into joining the liberal spectrum.

So, let me get this straight. The Bible says abortion is o.k.? Life begins at birth? Interesting… “Before I formed you in the womb I knew [ 1:5 Or [ chose ] ] you, before you were born I set you apart; I appointed you as a prophet to the nations.” Jeremiah 1:4-6 It appears that a lot can happen to a person before he has life.
