It is the tolerance that is provided to one of the most intolerant groups in America, Social Conservatives. I have no interest in doing anything to them, I just hope their voice gets smaller and smaller in this country so that we might actually start to extinguish much of the intolerance we have in this country.
Well spoken.
We should remember that social conservativism is in no way aligned with actual political conservativism. The GOP abandoned truly conservative principles decades ago. They are as incompetent and irresponsible with money and resources, and as intrusive and invasive into the lives and privacy of citizens as Democrats.
Social conservativism/"moral watchdog-ism" is the absolute antithesis of actual conservativism.
The only appropriate response to intolerance is to be intolerant of it.
We go by electoral votes, not popular vote when picking a president.
oh, I am fully aware of our idiotic system. look at history. it's pretty rare that a president wins without winning the popular vote. gore did it, but I can't think of the last one to do it before him. that 5% could shift swing states.
first of all, romney lost by less than 5%, so you might want to redo your math. second of all, I could care less about those two issues. and thirdly, who is this mythical "wall street banker?" do you wear a clown mask and occupy? you sound like you do. so you want to invade people's private 401k pension funds to steal money for bratty kids that take classes they can't afford? good luck with that.
And Romney was lucky. Demographics are not in the GOP's favor. If the Dems don't blunder in 2016 and they pick Hillary, it's gonna be a Democratic POTUS for 16 years in a row.
You should care, because you're handing the Dems victory after victory with your political ineptitude.
Easy. It's Jamie Dimon, Lloyd Blankfein, etc. The heads of AIG, JP Morgan, Citigroup, et. al. Who said anything about private 401ks? What is it with you Libertarian/tea party people and thinking taxing Wall St. automatically means taxing the middle class? You never heard of credit default swaps or collateralized debt obligations? You know, toxic derivatives? No, of course not. You think all the money on Wall St. is Joe Sixpack casually trading a couple hundred or thousand dollars on Wall St.
tell us more about your "friend." what planet is she from? does she have any super powers besides fighting discrimination, and "whistle blowing" on backwards rednecks?
When did I say she ever fought discrimination? She isn't racist, but I don't know if she ever did anything about the sign.
What do you want to know?
She's American
She's white.
She has big ****.
She can dance.
She won't get on the back of motorcycles.
Her favorite drink is a red headed ****.

The percentage of popular vote doesn't matter because there are more states with a higher population that go blue than go red. Those states aren't 100%, but they vote 100% blue with the electoral college, so being 5% behind in the popular vote doesn't matter if one can't produce electoral votes.

hillary clinton will be over 100 years old when she runs. she has severe brain damage, and last time I checked, was nearly blind. I wouldn't worry too much about "back to the future." what's with all the "you" and "you're" nonsense? I am an independent, and did not vote for bush, mccain, or romney. and now you've lumped me into the tea party. what a cute little kind of person you are. everything is a tax on the middle class. debt doesn't trickle up, and it doesn't trickle down. it puddles right in the middle.

She will be the same age Ronald Reagan was when he ran for his first term as president.
reagan was senile, not brain damaged and blind. nice attempt at wit though. never heard that "comeback."
