Have you noticed that when you have a conversation with liberals you have to constantly explain the most elementary concepts over and over again? It's like talking to a 5 year old.

You shouldn't have to fork out huge amounts for private k-12 programs if the public school teachers are doing their best. We as a country don't invest enough in our existing teachers nor give them a lot of incentive to become one but IMO that's not tied to a particular party.dbackjon wrote:

Re: RNC Speeches
They have a government that has taken away a parent's ability to acutally PARENT by making corporal punishment = child abuse. People going to jail for spanking. People getting CPS called on them for spanking or yelling or punishing thier child. The nanny state has allowed the inmates to start running the asylum, plain and simple.mainejeff wrote:Well, they must haver someone protecting them then........because they seem to pump out and raise crap with ease.AZGrizFan wrote:

Both of those signs were in the venue, but not sure if they lined up like that. Could just as easily be real as it could be shopped.Gil Dobie wrote:I'd bet good money that is a fake photo, funny but fake.

The BULL SHITE Iraq War was costly as well. But the Repukes won't say anything about this.

Re: RNC Speeches
Dems and Reps both voted for the war. When Clinton and Gore were campaigning against Bush I, they were critical that Bush I did not take enough action against Iraq and Clinton and Gore pointed out the danger of Iraq's WMD's. When you argue one against the other, Dems and Reps both had their stinky fingers in the war.mrklean wrote:The BULL SHITE Iraq War was costly as well. But the Repukes won't say anything about this.

Re: RNC Speeches
Gotta say that the Conks pulled off a pretty decent convention all things considered - of course expectations were pretty low- be interesting to see how Obama responds and exceeds his performance from 4 years ago (and for that matter 8 years ago when he stole the show at Kerry's convention).
