Example, leftists "feel" the need for the poor and low income workers to have good lives. And isn't that a honorable and Christian-like thing?
But when leftists do things like write laws to raise wages they don't fully realize the economic consequences of their actions, and then leftists enact wage laws that hurt certain small businesses. But those on the right could "think" of ways to stop wage increases from hurting those small businesses, like exempting certain small businesses from wage laws and enacting wage increases very slowly over time.
Clearly the leftists are having "feelings" about helping unfortunate Americans. But why can't those on the right realize that is a honorable thing, and then "think" of ways how those honorable "feelings" can be put into laws without negative economic consequences?
But perhaps since those on the right have no "feelings" to help unfortunate Americans, they can not "think" of ways to help unfortunate Americans.
And personally I would rather side with those who "feel" honorable things than side with those who "think" un-honorable things, like those on the right who "think" about no assistance for the poor, low wages for workers, no healthcare for everyone, no equal wages for women, no rights for gay people, hatred of Muslims and South Americans, and low tax rates for the wealthy.
And a leftists "feelings" have at least some thought with them, and leftists "feel" countless things. But a rightist can basically only "think" about 3 things (and that's no assistance for the poor, low wages for workers, and low tax rates for the wealthy.) And since leftists "feel" countless things and rightists only "think" about 3 things (the left will have more "thought" than the right.)
That's a load of you know what. How many people on the right have the ability to change anything on the Seattle City Council? My guess is zero. Besides, it's a lie that those on the right don't help out poor people, or don't want to help out poor people.
You lecture others on the "right to speak and share opinions". Then you immediately tell others to "shut up"!
You're free to travel to Somalia, too, if you think taxation is tyranny. The desert wastelands are waiting!
I was actually proud of geekigurl for saying that. She is no right winger, but she is in a position to see other people dislike her opinion or choices, being transgender. I guess she feels the need to defend people, which is commendable.

Though I do have my own "weird" Seattle story. I was in that big downtown Macy's and needed to use the restroom. The associate said they keep it locked and in pretty tight control because they have serious problem with people shooting up in there for long periods of time. I think that's the first time I've seen a locked restroom in a major department store. Now, I've seen people shooting up in the light of day on the street in SF but this actually surprised me.
That's pretty sad. What the hell? Sounds like a wonderful idea to allow the needle exchanges.
Seattle's mayor is a pedophile, may be time to take mayoral elections away from the voters there.
