		<description>The Conservative Pledge:

I, ________________________, do solemnly swear to uphold the principles of a socialism-free society and heretofore pledge my word that I shall strictly adhere to the following:
I will complain about the destruction of 1st Amendment Rights in this country, while I am duly being allowed to exercise my 1st Amendment Rights.
I will complain about the destruction of my 2nd Amendment Rights in this country, while I am duly being allowed to exercise my 2nd Amendment rights by legally but brazenly brandishing unconcealed firearms in public.
I will foreswear the time-honored principles of fairness, decency, and respect by screaming unintelligible platitudes regarding tyranny, Nazi-ism, and socialism at public town halls. Also.
I pledge to eliminate all government intervention in my life. I will abstain from the use of and participation in any socialist goods and services including but not limited to the following:
•Social Security
•Medicare/Medicaid
•State Children’s Health Insurance Programs (SCHIP)
•Police, Fire, and Emergency Services
•US Postal Service
•Roads and Highways
•Air Travel (regulated by the socialist FAA)
•The US Railway System
•Public Subways and Metro Systems
•Public Bus and Lightrail Systems
•Rest Areas on Highways
•Sidewalks
•All Government-Funded Local/State Projects (e.g., see Iowa 2009 federal senate appropriations)
•Public Water and Sewer Services (goodbye socialist toilet, shower, dishwasher, kitchen sink, outdoor hose!)
•Public and State Universities and Colleges
•Public Primary and Secondary Schools
•Sesame Street
•Publicly Funded Anti-Drug Use Education for Children
•Public Museums
•Libraries
•Public Parks and Beaches
•State and National Parks
•Public Zoos
•Unemployment Insurance
•Municipal Garbage and Recycling Services
•Treatment at Any Hospital or Clinic That Ever Received Funding From Local, State or Federal Government (pretty much all of them)
•Medical Services and Medications That Were Created or Derived From Any Government Grant or Research Funding (again, pretty much all of them)
•Socialist Byproducts of Government Investment Such as Duct Tape and Velcro (Nazi-NASA Inventions)
•Use of the Internets, email, and networked computers, as the DoD&#039;s ARPANET was the basis for subsequent computer networking
•Foodstuffs, Meats, Produce and Crops That Were Grown With, Fed With, Raised With or That Contain Inputs From Crops Grown With Government Subsidies
•Clothing Made from Crops (e.g. cotton) That Were Grown With or That Contain Inputs From Government Subsidies
If a veteran of the government-run socialist US military, I will forego my VA benefits and insist on paying for my own medical care
I will not tour socialist government buildings like the Capitol in Washington, D.C.
I pledge to never take myself, my family, or my children on a tour of the following types of socialist locations, including but not limited to:
•Smithsonian Museums such as the Air and Space Museum or Museum of American History
•The socialist Washington, Lincoln, and Jefferson Monuments
•The government-operated Statue of Liberty
•The Grand Canyon
•The socialist World War II and Vietnam Veterans Memorials
•The government-run socialist-propaganda location known as Arlington National Cemetery
•All other public-funded socialist sites, whether it be in my state or in Washington, DC
I will urge my Member of Congress and Senators to forego their government salary and government-provided healthcare.
I will oppose and condemn the government-funded and therefore socialist military of the United States of America.
I will boycott the products of socialist defense contractors such as GE, Lockheed-Martin, Boeing, Northrop Grumman, General Dynamics, Raytheon, Humana, FedEx, General Motors, Honeywell, and hundreds of others that are paid by our socialist government to produce goods for our socialist army.
I will protest socialist security departments such as the Pentagon, FBI, CIA, Department of Homeland Security, TSA, Department of Justice and their socialist employees.
Upon reaching eligible retirement age, I will tear up my socialist Social Security checks.
Upon reaching age 65, I will forego Medicare and pay for my own private health insurance until I die.</description>

		<description>C&#039;mon Quid...I presented arguments. And this...&quot;by Reverand standards&quot;....you know I don&#039;t have any standards. I&#039;m a liberal and I&#039;m proud of those liberal accomplishments that jimmie listed...so, how could I have any standards?

SanDiego...&quot;Has anyone ever seen John Boehner smile?&quot;

Answer: No.

Thanks fourfoos for the link. The GOP has, for years, made a very big propaganda mountain out of a small tort reform problem hill.

jimmie....&quot;Nixon did create the EPA. Would today&#039;s conservative create such an institution?&quot;

Answer: You must be kidding.</description>

		<description>What&#039;s a junk lawsuit? Who should determine what one is? Ironically, I once asked a Republican lawyer about tort reform as it relates to the health care industry. She said that if statistics were kept on medical malpractice deaths, medical malpractice would be the leading cause of death in the US. I don&#039;t think that tort reform is a good idea at all. I&#039;m not surprised Boehner does, though.

		<description>What a Wit!

The Reverand I mean.  Note his skillful use of the double entendre.  Yes, he still resorts to scatological profanity, but he did keep it to a minimum.  By Reverand standards.  And he has such fun doing it.  Besides, insult is easier than argument.</description>

		<description>You can&#039;t really be surprised that they have not offered anything. Real ideas that help people go against the driving principle of the GOP. They have done a wonderful job of convincing people that government is incompetent and that you cannot trust or believe in government. Go back to Reagan&#039;s &quot;government IS the problem&quot; line. Republicans govern incompetently and then turn around and say, &quot;See, government IS the problem.&quot;

So what have liberals done for America?

Why is liberalism good for America? Here is a short list of programs originally opposed by conservatives and which exist today because liberals made them happen.

Child labor laws

Clean Water Act

Collective bargaining rights 

Federal fair housing law 

Federal deposit insurance 

Federally sponsored guaranteed student loan programs 

Food stamps 

Head Start 

Investor protections of the Securities Acts of 1933 and 1934 

Medicare 

Public electrical power and the rural electrification system 

Social Security 

The Civil Rights Act 

The 40-hour work week 

The minimum wage 

Unemployment compensation 

Voting Rights Act 
 
Women&#039;s suffrage

What conservative programs have benefited America? 

Nixon did create the EPA. Would today&#039;s conservative create such an institution?</description>

		<description>I used to have respect for some Republican members of Congress....Dole, Lugar, Hagel, a few others....but now there&#039;s very little respectable Republican stuff to even evaluate. 

I&#039;m an Ohioan, and Boehner is an embarassment to Ohio, so I take it, you know, personally.</description>
