LOL, you liberal guys sure have taken a shine to me. The level of condescension is hilarious. Stand up comedy would be a good career change.
Actually, most professional comedians in the states thought at the end of the Bush administration they would have to start....working...at finding good material to joke & mock. But, the GOP simply expanded its 'Bush Intelligence and Wisdom' schooling to more Republicans in elected office (and those not...see Mr. Limgbaugh). As a result, comedians have not really had to work at finding material such much as sorting through how much material they can squeeze in an hour show. After all, they have to figure on sensible, honest, good, and mature adults watching and laughing.
An example of such material.

I think now I understand why you're all so into the health care, all that toxic anger you've got stored up is a heart attack or stroke just waiting to happen.
Dude, you possess very little to any knowledge on the subject, with a statement like that. 'Toxic anger...."? Maybe you should take a serious and objective look at the conservatives in this nation. In fact, why not start a thread stating you wish to limit say....firearms...and observe just how toxic the anger becomes. Or state a new thread you wish to be sensible citizen regarding paying down the US Debt, but raising taxes on all Americans (particularly the rich). You'll get plenty of '...toxic anger...' types from the CST (That'st he Conservative School of Thought). They'll explain material that would be totally laughable if it werent for the fact that if they dont get their way; they'd threaten to use their '...2nd Amendment Remedies....' to 'correct the issue'.
Most conservatives (grand majority in fact) have never read the ACA. Nor did they read the President's version (which was largely a better system). They dont know whats in and not in it. But argue quite heavily like they are all experts on the document. Even when facts and evidence is placed directly on their plate, they will ignore it cus "Rush said otherwise..." or "FOX News stated that is not true".
Truth is, I have access to that 'socialized medicine' I hear so many conservatives bitch about. As a resident of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts I have good access to medicine and doctors. I usually see a doctor for most things in about 3-5 business days. Of course for something serious, it can be soon, or head to the ER. I can get same day office visit to a specialist if I need to. Oh, and drugs cost me $3.65.....REGARDLESS....of the drug. Does your drug plan do that?
I suspect your at the mercy of both your employeer and the health care corporations. If you leave your current job, your health care policy immediately starts to decay and there is nothing in the laws that state the next job you get will be equal or better. The health care corporations dicate your life and really dont care what you have to say about it. Its not like you can throw their boss's boss out of a job, let alone them. In MA, we can vote out the boss's boss, which means we can effect the policy and enviroment of everything below.
An as you get older, I'm sure your 'Capitalistic Medicine' will simply 'nickle and dime you to death' to maximize their profit. The company will profit off your misery, suffering and oh yes....your death.

I'd love to see the statistics on how many of the deranged people having meltdowns and killing a bunch of people come from the liberal camp.
Cus no conservative would....EVER....have a meltdown and kill bunchs of people, right?
Why dont you look that information up yourself? Or just ask FOX News if they can find an 'expert' to tell you how to think? That way you can feel happy and proud and come on to this forum and share it to all of us. Than, we'll (if the media hasnt destroyed this lame 'information') take it apart by showing how a 30 second google search works. The end result is that your information is found to be 'loose on facts', 'not accurate', and 'heavily painted with both racial and political bias viewpoints'.

How would "changing paradim of archetypes" differ from a word like say "opinion"? Perhaps popular opinion? It is not something only I have noticed...so I'm not sure where you are going with that. It's a shame that Joseph Campbell isn't still alive to address the issue.
To bad the Founding Fathers weren't still alive. Be curious to get their input on the 2nd Amendment (not to mention the 1st, 4th, 5th, 6th, 7th, 8th, and 10th). I wonder how they feel about 'demon possessed citizens obtaining muskets that fire 30 musket balls faster than they can say "oh my Lord!" into groups of everyday citizens? Seeing as most modern day conservatives (like you CIIS), have no clue what the colonial America definition to the 2nd Amendment implied and expressed (its safe to say its....alot....different to how its in use today). I bet you couldnt even explain the 2nd in colonial American terms.
