SpeedRacer 1 #1 March 6, 2008 "We ask that the government undertake the obligation above all of providing citizens with adequate opportunity for employment and earning a living. The activities of the individual must not be allowed to clash with the interests of the community, but must take place within its confines and be for the good of all. Therefore, we demand: … an end to the power of the financial interests. We demand profit sharing in big business. We demand a broad extension of care for the aged. We demand … the greatest possible consideration of small business in the purchases of national, state, and municipal governments. In order to make possible to every capable and industrious [citizen] the attainment of higher education and thus the achievement of a post of leadership, the government must provide an all-around enlargement of our entire system of public education … We demand the education at government expense of gifted children of poor parents … The government must undertake the improvement of public health – by protecting mother and child, by prohibiting child labor … by the greatest possible support for all clubs concerned with the physical education of youth. We combat the … materialistic spirit within and without us, and are convinced that a permanent recovery of our people can only proceed from within on the foundation of the common good before the individual good."

lawrocket 3 #4 March 6, 2008 Let's look individually... ""We ask that the government undertake the obligation above all of providing citizens with adequate opportunity" - Democrat "for employment and earning a living" - Republican "The activities of the individual must not be allowed to clash with the interests of the community, but must take place within its confines and be for the good of all." - that's Democrat in one sense ("care for others before yourself") and Republican in another ("Don't sin") "an end to the power of the financial interests." - Oh, that's a Democrat ideal. "We demand profit sharing in big business." - democrat "We demand a broad extension of care for the aged." - Democrat "the greatest possible consideration of small business in the purchases of national, state, and municipal governments" - Republican "In order to make possible to every capable and industrious [citizen] the attainment of higher education and thus the achievement of a post of leadership" - Republican concept "In order to make possible to every capable and industrious [citizen] the attainment of higher education and thus the achievement of a post of leadership" - Democrat concept "the government must provide an all-around enlargement of our entire system of public education" - Democratic "We demand the education at government expense of gifted children of poor parents " - Democratic "The government must undertake the improvement of public health – by protecting mother" - Democratic "and child" - Republican (if unborn) "prohibiting child labor " - Dem and Republican "by the greatest possible support for all clubs concerned with the physical education of youth." - Republican and Democrat "We combat the … materialistic spirit within and without us" - Democrat "and are convinced that a permanent recovery of our people can only proceed from within on the foundation of the common good before the individual good." - Democrat Democrat - 13 Republican - 6. By my scoring methodology, the Democrats embrace ideals of the Nazi party more than Republicans by a 13/6 score. My wife is hotter than your wife.

I saw a Hell's angel collecting teddy bears for underprivileged children's Christmas presents. Does that mean teddy bears are bad, or just Christmas presents?

lawrocket 3 #7 March 6, 2008 Neither. It's just an observation about how certain ideas can be used to sound good and nice and full of warm-fuzzy heart. Yet, despots say these things. Look at how this party did. My wife is hotter than your wife. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
