Andrewwhyte 1 #3 September 29, 2005 Quote 9. Bash the French and the UN in the name of being a real patriotic American Oh come on, bashing the French is hardly the exclusive purview of the Republicans. Hell it's not even the exclusive purview of Americans. Everybody does it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rehmwa 2 #4 September 29, 2005 It was done better, funnier and classier by darius already in the other thread ...

lawrocket 3 #7 September 29, 2005 How to be a good Libertarian: 1. Accept that guns, weaponry and war are simply things that, try as you might, you won't get rid of. 2. label dissenters as cherished necessities in a free society. 3. speak on your own terms instead of using talking-points 4. complain about all oprression, regardless of who is doing it or who is being oppressed. 5. label any federal government program socialist, communist, fascist or stalinist in continuing support of the truth. 6. treat all press on all issues like the press reporting skydiving - there's probably more to it than you are reading. 7. attack all incompetence. 8. Use words like "Bill of Rights" to explain that, yes, all parts of the Constitution should be given equal deference. 9. Bash everyone who will not simply mind their own business. 10. defend your interpretation of the constitution by quoting the Constitution, instead of the Bible or the ACLU 11. believe that all political organizations are good because they all supply voices. 12. believe that you don't have to salute the flag or say prayers if you don't want to, but you should should be able to say prayers and salute the flag if you DO want to. 13. Label any subjective statements and opinions, including your own, as subjective rather than objective. 14. Ask whatever questions you want whether they are challenging or not. Answer whatever questions you want, whether challenging or not. After all, they are your questions and your answers. Respect the rights of others to either answer or not answer questions. 15. Consider all issues important since someone else does. Don't be snobby about things just because you don't think it's important to you/ 16. Label anybody you want by whatever label you want, and accept that you can also be labeled, for everyone can think what they want. 17. Live in fear of whatever you want and be prepared to protect yourself, but leave other people alone. 18. Be patriotic or xenophobic if you want. Be multicultural and phobiaphobic, too. It's your choice. 19. Let the neocons hide behind flags. Let the liberals hide behind everything else. If it's what they want to do, let them. 20. Eat whatever you want. Drink heavily if you want. Become a waste of a human life, if you want. But don't make others pick you up from the gutter if you chose to be there. 21. Step on nobody, and do not allow others to step on you, unless one of you wants to be stepped on. My wife is hotter than your wife. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
