I used to think power was the source of all evil, then I thought it was money........
I used to think power was the source of all evil, then I thought it was money, now I KNOW it is:
I used to think power was the cause of all evil.

I then changed my mind, and thought money was the source of all evil.

I NOW realize I had it partially right both times.

REPUBLICANS are the source of all evil.

No, stupidity and a lack of compassion is the root of all evil... and there's plenty of that regardless of ones belief system.

no system or party is perfect, especialy in the eyes of others. The republicans have their good sides and bad sides (in my opinion), as do Democrats.

Now Libertarians mind you, have notin good about them...

iow

1. I attack countries who are minding their own buisness
2. I lower taxes for the rich to help my own
3. I favor vouchers because they will help catholic schools
4. I appoint minorities to high governmental positions, yet my own senate majority leader is a racist
5. I am in favor of violating the rights of terrorists because no one cares anyways. They are guilty before proven innocent.
6. I am in favor with closer relationship with Mexico to help its economy, yet I support subsidising my own agriculture so that my people don't lose their jobs. Nevermind that it hurts Mexico
7. I am in favor of being friendly to the Russians, as long as they do what we want them to
8. I am in favor of fixing the social security system ... by investing it into the stockmarket until the stockmarket crashes and then we quickly change our tune.
9. I am in favor of building a massive multi billion dollar defense system... which we wouldnt need if we didnt meddle in other nations affaires

Instead, women = time + money. But time IS money (time = money). Also, money is the root of all evil. So, if time is money, women = money squared. So women = the root of all evil squared. Thus women = evil.


I hope my gf isn't watching.

Glad to see you admit it, it's the first step.

Hey, gotta do something to balance the bloody tyrants you prop up like Pinochet.

How about those tax refunds you give to companies like Enron who don't even PAY taxes?

Quote:

Great, a $1500 voucher that will help an urban kid attend a private school with a $10,000 tuition. I suppose his mom can take 3 more jobs to get the difference.

Quote:

Ah, so whereas Democrats actually want to see minorities advanced, you just want to use them as pawns in a political game? Nice.

Quote:

As opposed to those Democrats who advocate letting terrorists kill Americans, right. And don't forget your advocating of locking up suspected terrorists, too. You know...all Arabs...

Quote:

Oooooh Way to go out on a limb there!

Quote:

Hmm, last I saw, there wasn't anyone advocating resuming hostilities with them. And if this is the case, why did you favor the missile defense shield, which antagonized relations with Russia?

Quote:

Ah, so like minorities, you like to use the elderly for political pawns, too? Nice again!

You mean the one that doesn't work? And whose tax dollars are paying for it? Not the rich...their taxes are getting lowered. Not the corporations, they're not paying taxes. So it must be---the working class, the middle class and the small businesses. Nice to know you so freely spend their tax money on things that don't work. Do you favor $500 toilet seats, too?

Seeing as some would say there is not a dime's worth of difference between the Democrats and the Republicans, you would also be saying the Democrats are the source of all evil.

And looking at Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton and Hillary Clinton, I'd say you are right .
