Good to hear from you. It's been a while. Thanks for setting the record straight about Redstate. I guess I was unwittingly passing on an unfounded rumor there. Thanks for the link as well. I'll come and visit you. My friend the Reverend (formerly known as Bluester to you) gets easily confused. He hasn't realized that the government stealing from it's citizens for every half-witted scheme the government can dream up is morally wrong (like Hillary's Woodstock museum. Did you hear about that one ? Oy vey). I always thought Thou Shalt Not Steal covered it, but maybe that's too old school for our atheist Rev. Flaggie ! Good to hear from you. It's been a while.

I just put in my 2 cents worth now and then. The Rev commented, "The conservative movement in America today is, without doubt, completely void of any humanity or morality. Americans recognize this and will deal with today's jackbooted and morally bankrupt party accordingly come next November." Just how would a member of the SocialistDemocrat party know any of that? After all, wouldn't he need to know just what the concepts of humnity and morality mean, first? The Regressives seem to be quite conversant with the idea of "take from you and give to us," which to my mind is far from moral. Of course, I'm not a Reverend.

Y'all always get that wrong. I also have a question as to how the government stealing all my money through taxation is promoting my welfare, because I can add and subtract. I have never met a conservative yet who didn't believe in some kind of safety net for the poor and unfortunate, but when half of a middle class person's wages go toward one form of taxation or another, things have gotten way out of hand. I'd call that an extremely 'liberal' view of the General Welfare. But all that stuff you said about 'jackbooted thugs' was very humorous.

The General meaning George Washington, aka our fair nation's first President. Bush has been following the spirit of the document all these years and he's getting crucified for it.

Guess I better go back and look again at the section titled 'why you should pay for your neighbor's decision to have kids'). It's my theory that the left will never stop finding new 'rights'. As soon as they take enough of our money away to pay for one 'right', they will magically discover new 'rights' to take even more away. In the end, the left will discover so many 'rights' that our actual rights as enumeriated in the Constitution won't exist anymore at all.

Well I like seeing all those things that are not guaranteed as so many of the left think they are. I do get a kick out of it and until somebody comes up with a Snopes refutation I guess I will just accept all of it. Of course they can't do anything with it since no hero is listed as the one who said any of it. They may not find the originator so they couldn't do anything like it. I am sorry that Reverend Red failed to get involved. I was very sure he would have some of his proggy words to say about it. I guess I will have to break my promise to myself and look at his for today to see what he said himself.
