  1. This post is hard to read and a mess. The Katyn massacre happened in 1940. It is almost 80 years later and that is your comparison argument? Money is tight for governments? Wow. I just assumed every country had surpluses. Our national debt is nothing compared to them, right? People act like we automatically have to become tyrannical communistic animals if we start moving towards a more socialist agenda. It's sad.
  2. Moderate conservatism and republicans are here to stay. Faith influenced old-school conservatism however is becoming less and less popular. I'm 29, so that means I have six years left to become jaded, close-minded, greedy, paranoid and scared.
  3. Have any outlier stories about people from the ten current socialist countries I mentioned in Europe? Nazi Germany, Vietnam and Venezuela. Great measuring sticks guys, keep it up. There are numerous current socialist countries right now as we speak. What do you have to say about them?
  4. For the love of god, categorizing all socialists as the same because of some tyrannical dictators in the past is ridiculous.
  5. Young people reaper, talk to many of them? They don't see the world like old school conservatives. They also don't vote as frequently as older people. Give it time. I called single payer happening in the next 10 to 20 years, which it will. And I am also calling conservatism becoming less and less mainstream over the next 10 to 20 years, which it will.
  6. Davis is a better overall receiver imo. He has the all time record for receiving yards in FBS, can run any route, has good size/speed, can go up and get it and make people miss. Him over Williams all day long. I have a sneaky feeling McDermott wants a Luke Keuchly type of middle linebacker and may try to get him in this draft with our first round pick. Would be even better if he could move back and do that. We could probably get a starting WR and DB in the second and third rounds this year because it's so deep at those spots.
  7. Death squads? The last time I traveled to Europe I didn't see any of those. Our taxes should cover everything like quality education, infrastructure and healthcare. Socialism means everyone is supposedly equal, even though the rich and shameless will always be just that. Individuality is discouraged, which I don't like. And taxes are higher. Bulldozers and death squads? You sound like Alex Jones.
  8. Aw, you are cute. Liberalism and progressivism is becoming more popular, and conservatism outside of being a moderate is becoming less popular. A dying breed? Young people hope so.
  9. Did Bernie Sanders sleep with your old lady or something? Modern Socialism is not like you are describing but that's okay. We are already somewhat socialist with all the social programs we have. I want to take away your social security when you turn 65 and see how you are feeling about government then. The good old days of limited government and no social programs are over, adapt or become extinct.
  10. 5k each? Haha that is crazy, only an undercover cop would say yes to those prices.
  11. If you want to blame those atrocities on socialism and not the dictators who were ruling at the time, then I have no use having a conversation with you. You can't be that ignorant, can you? Nazis and millions dead all because of socialism! What a joke. I pointed to numerous current examples, and you point to Venezuela and dictators. Nice.
  12. Social security, Medicare, Medicaid, Pell Grants, universal healthcare, school lunch programs, Welfare, and Foster Care are all social programs (socialism). There are hundreds of other programs too. Some are redundant, and could have the fat trimmed, especially in regards to disability, welfare, section 8 and food stamps. These programs get taken advantage of, but offer tremendous benefit to people who need it. Venezuela is a tiny, war ravaged and corrupt nation. Is that the best example of a socialist country? Look to Norway, Sweden, Canada, Denmark, Netherlands, Finland, New Zealand and Belgium for better examples. No government is perfect and taxes are usually higher. I'm just sick of the rich and elite being the only ones who are truly prospering in Capitalistic countries like America.
  13. Meathead has been a member since 2007 and reaper since 2008, freaking geniuses I tell ya. In regards to this topic, I don't think they are going to grant him immunity. He would have to sing like a canary and offer stuff they don't already know. Could be he doesn't want to be the fall man, and is just trying to protect his own rear end. Either way, innocent or not, it looks bad.
  14. DC Tom probably needs this gig, we can't take it away from him. He has no kids and who knows what else is missing from his life. This might be all he has, so let's let him have a little bit of authority.
  15. I saw this late and finally made them tonight with it, deliciouso. Thanks for the heads up.
  16. Great, thanks for your opinion which is so highly coveted around here. For the tenth time. I have said there is smoke, that is all. I haven't claimed collusion or anything else. I don't like trump, and there is a lot of smoke. Want to debate that?
  17. Do you have a point yet? Maybe go take another nap, you are still grouchy. Me saying drip drip drip, and there's some smoke, have nothing to do with me wanting to wait until the end of the investigation to make a final judgment. But you knew that too. Or maybe I'm giving you too much credit.
  18. It means leaks and information always get revealed one tiny piece at a time. Never all at once. But you knew that.
  19. Of course Dems read it too. Another novel idea to consider is I said the exact same thing about waiting for the investigation to conclude earlier in this thread.
  20. It does seem like the non-conservatives catch way more flak around here than the right. Obama was ridiculed and obstructed at every turn for eight years, and some of it rightfully so. It just seems weird to me the right doesn't expect the same treatment now with Trump.
  21. Fair enough, and I have taken this advice to heart. I am being serious about that. Me saying drip drip drip and there is smoke is not conjecture in my mind, but I definitely get your point.
  22. Thanks Tom, simple and to the point.
  23. Go back and read the thread, I've said it multiple times. People on both sides who act like they already know the conclusion of the investigation are equally guilty.
  24. Where is the fun in that meathead? I thought there were no rules on PPP and people with hurt feelings can suck it up? In all seriousness though I will tone it down, I apologize. My friends and I are a lot worse to each other, but that is no excuse. It seems to me if you are not a conservative around here, you are either an idiot, a libtard or some other derogatory term. My beef is with three people. Grinreaper has had it out for me since day one because of having gator in my name. I'm not a fan of D.C. Tom, even though I have already told him I respect him as the legend he is around here. And that leaves you Azalin, maybe you haven't done it personally but don't act like we have been buddy buddy either. Once again, this noob is sorry and I will pump the brakes.
  25. Here's another newsflash for you. I didn't start the name calling. I'm happy to push back though.
