    Daniel Ferguson wrote: Glenn might be a libertarian, but Oakman isn't a raging nutcase who pretends to cry. I've watched Beck's metamorphosis on Fox (not daily, but from time to time which has made in more noticable, I suppose.) Now he has never been the brightest bulb in the chandelier, but he used to be somewhat of a libertarian (there is no cookie-cutter mold for one, of course - except in some idiots' heads.) But the longer he's been on Fox, the more bizarre he's become - from the weepy fits to the bug-eyed warnings of impending doom - to the creepy kind of Christianity he's started to wear on his sleeve. His political philosophy has slid further and further towards O'Reilley's, including wanting to ban this and outlaw that, are require thus and so - hardly a libertarian stance.

    Ilíon wrote: It is *NOT* "part of [one's] responsibility as President of the United States to fight against negative stereotypes of Islam wherever they appear." John Carson -- being intellectually dishonest -- *chooses* to ignore the point being made. Do you consider that it is part of the President's responsibility to, say, tell the truth or avoid incurring excessive debt? Neither of those is in the Presidential oath. I understand that you don't agree with the President fighting negative stereotypes of Islam, but the President chooses to take on many responsibilities that are not Constitutionally mandated. Obama is simply informing the public of one such responsibility he has decided to assume. John Carson

    Don't kid yourself into think he cares about banging - he was really there to meet with the Swiss Gnomes and Rupert Murdoch. Oh - and to change the access codes on the Vatican's numbered accounts. They are secretly funding Obama, you know.

For instance, one of the things that Obama wants to get rid of is a tax break that applies only to companies that invest overseas. if they ever try to bring the investment back to these shore, they are suddenly taxed on it. How much more intelligent it would be if the reverse was true.

    Don't be so hard on yourself. And when talking to oneself, there's really no need to bother the rest of us with it. Visit BoneSoft.com for code generation tools (XML & XSD -> C#, VB, etc...) and some free developer tools as well.

When there is atleast a million or more like you, you can conclude crtical mass has been reached and human civilisation will come to an end. And then we will all be some kind of animally feckers who walk on all fours and eat grass. heheh!!!

    Daniel Ferguson wrote: Sounds like there's a social/group element to personal responsibility. Of course there is. Even dogs know that. "I take personal responsibility for the survival of the family/group/clan/nation/species" is the hallmark of the responsible person - or animal. Daniel Ferguson wrote: think this is where personal responsibility gets complicated. That's why the original answer wasn't as simple as you thought it was. Civilization, in my humble opinion, is all about assuming, aiding, teaching and acting as if everyone can take and has taken personal responsibility for themselves and for civiliztion - until, as I said, they prove incapable or unwilling to behave in a civilized manner.

    No, I assumed it was a joke. I've seen enough of your posts to know that you're not stupid. It just didn't make any sense to me. Forgive me for playing joke critic, which is hardly ever constructive. Visit BoneSoft.com for code generation tools (XML & XSD -> C#, VB, etc...) and some free developer tools as well.
