does it matter what party they can relate to? Really? Anyone that can applaud executions are a few french fries short of a happy meal, exspecially in a state that routine kills the wrong person! I bet if it were someone that they loved and was wrongly killed it would be a different story!

How can it not exist? I asked you to give an example of where you think it fails, and so therefore can not exist. If you can not identify where it can fail, then you have no argument that it can not exist.

Everywhere. It is natural to seek control within a society. It is why you can't find the kind of world you speak of.

But I guess it's just because you simply "disagree" with his policies. Right. Many of you hate way more than his policies, You hate the person himself. That's plain for us to see, And that is what's despicable and why I would have to violate my conscience to vote for anyone that you guys support.
I've noticed that, and I think it all boils down to good-old-fashioned racism. Yes, I know saying that will ruffle a few feathers, but it is true. Obama would never get this kind of abuse if he were white.

60s? you are giving your age away. I bet it was 68 and you were maybe 2 or 3 years old?

What is the problem here. It is as plain as the nose on anyone's face. She stated it rather bluntly. Here...

Ironically, the one man on stage who did comport himself with dignity, John Huntsman, is now being dismissed as having not made an impact. The moment he brought the discussion back from airport security to the sweeping poverty and economic panic that is gripping this country was, I thought, profound. It was something my father would have done. But that moment isn't making the news. The zingers like Perry's Ponzi-scheme comment, in reference to Social Security, are getting more attention. Maybe the candidates should have wandered over to my father's gravesite before going on stage. Maybe they should have lingered over the words carved in stone there.

That answer does not attend to the question. Be specific, give an example of its failing. Saying "Everywhere" is an evasion of generality which does not provide a proper support for your claim.

So again, describe an example of where it fails.

Non-existence of such society you preach about is an example/illustration of its impossibility. Heck, if you want to really see it at work, look at what you're complaining about. Do I need to tell you about that too?
