mnealtx 0 #26 August 28, 2007 QuoteGood reasonj to eliminate "gifts" to all politicians...campaign finance reform.. its good for ALL of us...Candidates would be paid from a general fund.. all of them in a particular election would get the same... and NO lobbyists would be allowed either. That would be the only way to clean up the system and have our politicians listen to WE THE PEOPLE. That and strict term limits would go a long, LONG way toward cleaning up that festering cesspool on the Potomac.Mike I love you, Shannon and Jim.

Butters 0 #28 August 28, 2007 Quote See Mike.. there is a place in the middle where moderates can agree on something... Since when are you a moderate? As far as the topic of this thread ... it is not a Republican or a Democrate issue, it is a Hypocrite issue. Both parties have had them, have them, and will have them. It won't change. Why? Because people complain about politics without knowing about politics or history. (Because people are more inclined to watch a show or read a magazine about celebrities than about politics or history.) Because people complain about politics without doing anything to change politics."That looks dangerous." Leopold Stotch Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Amazon 7 #29 August 28, 2007 Quote Since when are you a moderate? Its very obvious you really do NOT know me or the issues I have posted on.. BUT I guess with all the far right posters on here.. ANYONE who does not agree with them is a far lefty..Then again anyone who supporta all the far right crap that has been rampant since 2001 I guess you feel is a moderate Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mnealtx 0 #30 August 28, 2007 Quote See Mike.. there is a place in the middle where moderates can agree on something... Throw all the fuckers out and start fresh... no more than 2 terms...no PACS, no lobbyists...and straight bills. You want a pork project for your district? Make a bill for it, don't tuck in on page 896 of another bill. Get rid of the Congressional retirement system and medical coverage...make them use the same systems that us peons have to and see how quick it gets cleaned up.Mike I love you, Shannon and Jim.

You are constantly posting positive things or defending against negative things about Democrates. You call this being a moderate. Also, your guess is wrong. You continue to lump me in with everyone else without actually reading or comprehending my posts ... I'm use to it by now from you.

Amazon 7 #35 August 28, 2007 See you cant bring anything better than post a link to me being an internet troll.. How droll... Shall we call a WAHbulance for all that right wing angst???? DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD when your posts quack like a duck.. and waddle like a duck.. aint no way I am callin it a swan....get it??? This goes for my favorite NEO CON as well.

Also, your guess is wrong. You continue to lump me in with everyone else without actually reading or comprehending my posts ... I'm use to it by now from you. PS: Just take a look at the way you type Republican. Point by point.. please show examples of posting only good things about DEMOCRATS( yes this is the correct spelling unlike some who continueally mispell it.. turn about= fair play so I can use rePUBICans since so many of you are so fucking hung up on anything having to do with SEX) I have read your posts.... quack quack quack.... And since you seem to have such great support for the Party of GOD and MORALITY.. it must REALLLLLLLLLY gall your butt when so many of them are shown to be crooks and hypocrites fall from their high horses....I do not see so many Democrats doing so poorly in the last 10 years.. BUT I will add this.. if they are a crook.. put em in jail.. no matter what party they are in.. and recently the jails seem to be filling up with the right wing moral republicans.

Butters 0 #37 August 28, 2007 The proof was shown that both parties are guilty and yet you focus only on the Republican party. How can you consider this to be moderate? QuoteShall we call a WAHbulance for all that right wing angst???? Case and point. If you ever bothered to read and comprehend what people write you might actually realize that I am not a Right Wing Republican ... I am a Conservative (not a Neo-Conservative) Independent. QuoteDOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD when your posts quack like a duck.. and waddle like a duck.. aint no way I am callin it a swan....get it??? You should look in the mirror.
