Brain -> RE: John Ensign Linked To "Do it Yourself Exorcism" Movement (7/19/2009 5:01:23 PM)
How nice it must be to live in Texas a state with lots of Christianity where they are first in air pollution and 48th in literacy. Karl Marx was right not about communism but religion is the opium of the masses. It may not be in my lifetime but in the future there will be as many people who believe in God as there is now people that believe the earth is flat. But I’m not wasting my time because faith is faith and that means logic does not prevail when it comes to faith. So believe in God, believe in the three Little pigs story or believe in Humpty Dumpty. It’s all the same to me.

This makes you a bigot: a prejudiced person who is intolerant of any opinions differing from his own. This is not intended as an insult (although I've no doubt you'll feel insulted), but as a descriptive naming of your beliefs. Firm

I mean he went from fixing toilets and unclogging drains to giving speeches as a respected expert on the economy. And he certainly excited the Republican base. That's easily done, when your crowd is high on Viagra.

quote: ORIGINAL: willbeurdaddy No, you lie. A stronger stimulus wouldnt have done shit except increase the deficits. The stimulus package was nothing more than pork for Dem pet projects. A half truth. It was pork, yes, but it would result in a short term goose of the economy. It's the same blighted crap that Bush used with tax cuts. More money in the hands of the people, and more economic activity, but at the expense of increasing the deficit. quote: ORIGINAL: TheHeretic So, would you be suggesting that we ought to bar people from office unless they have the "correct" view of our universe and how it works? I think there might be a rule about that somewhere. Probably more than one. Actually, that's exactly how things work. Any candidate must win a plurality of votes cast. They may not satisfy all individuals, but they must satisfy a bunch of them.

I can't tell you what a delight it is to join the church of those that you attack, KY :-) .

quote: ORIGINAL: slvemike4u quote: ORIGINAL: willbeurdaddy quote: ORIGINAL: Brain People, economists, think the stimulus may not have been enough. Republicans could have been more cooperative and allowed a stronger stimulus bill. But instead they weakened it. A stronger stimulus bill would have given us better employment numbers now. Obama didn’t lie. No, you lie. A stronger stimulus wouldnt have done shit except increase the deficits. The stimulus package was nothing more than pork for Dem pet projects. As far as unemployment goes its the business cycle, stupid, exacerbated by policies that business recognizes will hurt their growth. willbur,am I reading this right....did you actually just call another poster stupid? No, youre not, as usual. Of course you may be too young to remember "It's the economy, stupid".

Using this sentence to shoot down the points of another is vacuous. Now, if you want to show why certain elements of a discussion are illogically and insensibly bigoted, then you've got a point.

Some of us are even opinionated son'v'bitches. A bigot is an order of magnitude different. Firm
