I'm attacking your argument.

in a string of 3 post, you have called me a bigot and claimed my party supports pedophiles and incest, when I am not a bigot and my party has done nothing of the sort, where as your party did indeed include 6 paragraphs in its bylaws/platform about marriage and its definition and why it will support laws banning any change to its definition.

if your point is that generalizations as a whole are wrong, then i would agree, but i was not making one. I simply pointed out a fact about your party.In comparison, I have not seen a single democrat support incest or pedophilia, nor is it in the Democratic Party platform.

if i missed something, could you simply explain your point ? Maybe i missed something, IDK, but i honeslty do not understand why you are lashing out.
I have no party. I argue positions and individuals. In 2012 I voted for national office, one person from the Mountain Party, One Democrat and one that wasn't even on the ballot.

Quite possibly the funniest thing I've read all week.

LOL! Wow, you comedians all need to get on the same page.

Half of you say that all the investigations and audits and harassment were just "doing their job" and all of it was legitemate and the other half is saying that he resigned and it was his fault for all the bad stuff they did, which was NOT legitimate.

So, each of you proves the other wrong.

The inordinate attention to TEA Party and right leaning organizations was admitted to and resignation was asked for to throw someone under the bus.

The rest of you argue that no wrong was done and nobody admitted to it and it was all "normal".

So, make up your mind. Was the resignation due to partisan wrongdoing or did someone get fired to make it LOOK like partisan wrongdoing happened? The latter would be insanely stupid, the former is the defintive Chicago thug behavior and we have a Thug-In-Chief, so... connect the dots, man.

Oh, and read the news, the admission of partisan behavior is really hard to ignore. You'd learn from trying to be correct, rather than partisan.

WHY COULDNT YOU SAY THAT FROM THE BEGINNING ???????????????????????


I based my argument on the conversation at hand, the original poster responded to you based on a belief that you fell in line with the Republican party. I simply pointed out why he made that claim.

That still doesnt explain why you called me a bigot, nor does it explain you claiming Democrats support incest of Pedophilia.

being characterized is not an excuse for how you lashed out, nor does it explain it. there is something more here that i had to have missed.

Simple, corporations can externalize their costs and damages on the society at large (like joblessness that is a must to have corporate wage slavery), government has nobody to externalize costs onto. Thus, corporations can instill more fear and anxiety into wage slaving masses. Government is left to pick corporate scraps. Private sector efficiency is little more than myth, especially in the age of absentee ownership and CEO mavericks.
Whatever that "little more" is, contains a gap the size of the universe.

Government has NEVER done anything well.

the exceptions in the private sector are either amazing examples of failure or government subsidy.

Only in America Democrats can pass for a left party, in the rest of the world it would be a right of the center party. USA has no left to speak of. 10 corporations owning all the medial has a lot to do with the fact that American left is marginalized and Obama is declared a "radical Marxist". Pure idiocy.

No, no link.

I don't play "source" games.

Just tell me why the acting IRS commissioner resigned and why IRS employees admitted to engaging in partisan harassment, and yet supposedly nobody did anything wrong.

You know what they argument was. I was arguing in defense of the ACLU in their defense of our rights. I argued that I had no problem with who people wanted to marry. What you perceived as my party was nothing more than an attempt to not address my points.
