    Enjoy your conservative forum.

    I don't think Stan & Mike would regard me or Jon as proper conservatives. Not full fledged pinko liberals perhaps, but at least mislead libertarians...

      You keep telling us that we are going to be denied the chance to teach you something, as if that should make us sad. It's been my experience in life that I am much more likely to be saddened by a lost opportunity to learn, than to teach. I was willing to give you a couple of history lessons, of course, because I am a bit of a showoff, but ultimately, I'll enjoy myself far more matching wits with Stan or Christian or any of the other regs, than simply doing a quick brain dump to bring you up to speed on a subject you started posting about. By the way, you keep mentioning my age as if that should hurt my feelings. Just to set the record straight, I'm quite proud of surviving this long and I am quite sure that it beats the alternative. Every time you call me old, it reminds me how clever I am to have gotten this way. ;) To quote the darling of the far left, Ms. Streisand: "Go or stay/I don't care/very much"

      I guess I underestimated your need to insult and stroke your own ego. Well done. You may be clever. Really I was looking for a clever way to call you a jerk. Jerk.

        Too bad my correction appeared before your cap. Look, I'll admit to shooting from the hip here. I'm not a democrat nor a republican. I didn't vote for Obama nor Bush. I'm merely struggling through the haze of propaganda on this board and ask questions and posit scenarios in the hopes of learning more. But it does appear that this is completely futile. So I think I'm just moving on. Enjoy, you all had a true opportunity to teach someone without a party of your viewpoints, but everyone seems to be more interested in those same buzzwords you accused me of. So, enjoy, this fish is wriggling off the hook. I tangle with the contradictions and propaganda elsewhere. But hey, slowly but surely you'll all be left with those who agree with you and you can slap each other on the back all you want.

        pick up the book, "The 5000 Year Leap" - then you'll understand where most of us are coming from, the principles of the founders in a fairly concise format.

        Mike - typical white guy. The USA does have universal healthcare, but you have to pay for it. D'oh. Thomas Mann - "Tolerance becomes a crime when applied to evil." The NYT - my leftist brochure. Calling an illegal alien an “undocumented immigrant” is like calling a drug dealer an “unlicensed pharmacist”. God doesn't believe in atheists, therefore they don't exist.

              Damn, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to be pedantic there. Guess I should have added a smiley or the joke icon. It was just an observation, not a corrective remark.

                      You responded with more clever insults. Sorry, but your message is lost in that act alone. I doubt your ability to allow a last word though.
