I took it. Do you dare?
Define yourself. This is for conservatives, cause I really don’t give a shit about the lib opinion. I’m just trying to find out what the hell everyone agrees or doesn’t agree on.
What are the top three issues that you are adamantly against? Here are mine:
- The US income tax code.
- Illegal immiigration.
- Entitlement programs. (excluding SS, Medicare, and Military…..I do not feel like these should be under the same roof anyways….)
What are the top three issues that you’re really not for, but you can live with? Here are mine:
- Gay marriage.
- Legalised marijuana.
- Hate crimes. (I will accept that they are too retarded to understand that every crime is hateful……sorta like self-defense is the old name for stand your ground.)
Please answer the questions as succinctly as you can.
The Rio Norte Line 
This is very Hard…..Because I Honestly feel that our Social Decay is directly linked to the Legislative Lawlessness.
So I cannot Honestly say there are “issues” I am against but can live with………. BUT WRT your 3 Top issues being against I have to frame it thus.
SINGLE Top Issue from wence All others eminate is also a two-fer……
*UnConstitutional Lawlessness* linked to *Social immorality*( moral relativism)
From this the Top 3 to be attacked on a Practical level
(1) US Income Tax Code.
(2) Illegal immigration
(3) Entitlement Programs ( But NOT the Military !!)…..And that includes Corporate Welfare and Bailouts and programs like Welfare, SS, Medicare and all the rest.
I believe we owe the Military support…..they served and serve ( ie WORKED) for their Benefits. I am against cutting Military Medical or Pensions ( No I am not in the Military ).
A second group would be.
(1) US Gov’t Agencies . They are effectively UNELECTED ,Appointed and Politically biased organizations that pass laws affecting everyone. They should be Dramatically reduced and most of them ELIMINATED.
(2) Term limits for the Supreme Court
(3) Repeal of the 17th Amendment…… bringing the Original Constitutionally described method for the States legislatures electing the Senate.
I dig what you’re sayin, Don, but you’ve avoided answering the question. (I think this is my payback for sending you those nudies….)
No I did address it, 2nd sentence.
As Chet Baker said….you remain my “Funny Valentine….my comic Valentine”……
Still….King Oliver is my close 2nd.
I like to perform James’ version: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bt7eqkPXO8A
It is extremely challenging as it is incredibly low for my register. But I dig challenges, and I’m wondering why you are so hell-bent against them? To be so unmoving in your position places you in the same position as our dear leader, I believe.
Hell-bent against them ???
I love King Oliver and Chet Baker…….. though they are very “Diverse” in their approach. No one can say I am not a proponent of Diversity.
Nice try though …. ;- ) .
Yet, you do not answer what you could live with, my sweet. 😉
I am not for these, but I suppose I could live with….
(1) SOME of our overseas bases …….. many should be closed down such as in Europe.
(2) The Post Office as it is.
(3) NPR ( but not PBS).
Well, thanks for answering the question.
By the By….you know of course that Etta was a Bad ,bad Girl …….. in a Good way of Course… ;- ) .
Entitlements such as food stamps, rent subsidies. Needs more control on qualification and strict time limits on length of benefits. Really sick of “rich bashing”, the very people who pay the most to provide these benefits.
Conservatives who will not speak up and fight the good fight. Too many elected Conservatives are shrinking violetsThe very people we trusted and elected are as big a problem as the Liberals. Too many “mealy mouths” filling a chair and collecting the salary and perks. Be tough in evaluating who you vote for.
. Obama, in a sneaky manner keeps going after certain religions. Does he think his intelligence is so superior that we will never catch up with his deceit.
The misleading concern for jobs and economy by this administration. Has there been an accounting of Obama,s first big stimulus? Why have the Republicans not raised a big stink about this kind of money just melting away.
Forget illegal aliens for the time being. Make a real effort to match our current unemployed with the jobs available. Let the founders of FB, Google, farming and factories owned by large corporations etc work out their own employment issues. At the point where our domestic issues are solved, illegal immigration has to be dealt with. before then let Border people do their jobs as prescribed by law.
Okay, JJ; I got everything that upsets you. But what can you live with? Oh, and corporations are handling that problem with the minimum-wage increase by installing IPADs to order for you instead of a person. I wonder what shall happen if the power fails…..
Here are mine:
I agree with your 3 but I would rearrange as follows:
1. Entitlement programs. (excluding SS, Medicare, and Military…..I do not feel like these should be under the same roof anyways….) Along with the mentioned I would definitely add….the pols making political deals that benefit themselves. Anytime a politician votes for ANYTHING and then is somehow financially endowed because of the new law. it should be considered what it is; A CRIME.
2. Illegal immigration. Shut the door and quit giving ANY financial assistance to any country that keeps allowing it’s people to come here illegally.
3. The US income tax code. Change the process of taxation and undo the 16th amendment.
What are the top three issues that you’re really not for, but you can live with? Here are mine:
I guess I can continue to live with a lot of laws that bother me since I have been doing so for all my life. Unfortunately I haven’t been able to find a country with laws I would rather deal with, so I choose to spend most of my time bitching about what ALL politicians continue to do against my will.
Dusty, I respect your opinion (especially the16th), but let’s face it; you still haven’t answered the question. Why the hello is this so hard for you boys? It’s three flippin questions??!!
I would say the top 3 I dislike but can live with ( if I have to) are;
1.Taxes ( actually the govt money grab)
2.Executive orders (actually the govt power grab)
3.One party (either one of the two) ruling without restraint.
Thanks, Dusty! By the by, where the hello is FL? (My little cracker on a Harley with a shake of hot sauce?)
What are the top three issues that you are adamantly against? Here are mine:
1. Healthcare.
2. Entitlement programs. (retirement plans paid in to are not entitlements)
3. The Government – in general.
What are the top three issues that you’re really not for, but you can live with? Here are mine:
1. Obama’s teleprompter
2. Freedom From Religion Foundation’s sensitivities
3. Moochelle’s 50th botox crisis.
Footnote: The liberals can go (censored) themselves. Our rights are not dependent upon their perceptions of our need.
I am so very grateful for a boy who takes direction! As to your footnote; do you not recognize a disturbing trend? By that, I simply infer that we will be the party that fails if we cannot come to an agreement as to what the basic ideals are that we should like our representatives to stand for. Does this equate to Hillary in 2016?
You assume that I am party affiliated.
No way, Jose. I know I’d only make an ass outta you and me.
Well that’s just the thing Kells … there’s no agreement I have to come to as a “party”. I agree with the Constitution, and disagree with those avulse to it.
I agree, but I also feel that it will benefit us with similar feelings to be in accord at the polls. Just my thoughts….a lullaby pour tu, chere: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J0IFrc7-3nw
Gotta love making whoopee!
Augger,
With respect to your “can live with list”
How bout if Obama’s Teleprompter were to prompt only in Swedish ……. I think that would be an improvement.
Against:
1. Income tax code-too onerous
2. No term limits for congress
3. ACA, a.k.a Obamacare
Can live with;
1. Illegal immigration (but not giving benefits to illegals)
2. Food stamps
3.
Your illegal immigration stance is interesting. The only problem is that I don’t think this country will purge entitlement programs anytime soon, causing legalized immigrants to pay for illegal immigrants.
As a side note, I own all the Gumby movies (yes I am scary….)
Excellent song links, everyone! Here is another for your enjoyment http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ioxeqbQCvMo
Wow. G., that was amazing! Thanks for turning me on to this fella! The lyrics are so beautiful, and I especially love the contrast of his voice with the piano and bass. This artist exudes “presence”. Why the hello haven’t I heard of him? Is he French? I noticed one of the videos after was Vanessa Paradis. I knew she was Johnny Depp’s partner, but I didn’t know she was a singer. She is beautiful: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f5Vs1-zsbUw
Cute Chick.
If you’re lookin’ fer Jazz and French and Guitar……… Look no further than the Hot Club De France….
Now granted you don’t get Dudes snapping their fingers….. but you do get Grappelli as a Substitute…. ;- ) .
