SkyChimp 0 #3 August 21, 2011 That would be nice but I think people are going to be watching for that kind of activity for next year. Frankly I'm tired of hear about voting "rights" when its truly a privilege. If you have to pass a test to have a drivers license in order to have that privilege then the same should be for voting. It requires knowledge and it affects others. Does anyone else find it funny that we made a SPORT out of an EMERGENCY PROCEDURE?!?! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The facts are that they received 53 million federal dollars since 1994, A little over 3 million a year, BFD.

Flawed questions being asked, etc. I understand that it is frustrating to have people able to see other points of view besides those controlled by liberals, so you must attack them personally rather than have it get down to the details of any particular subject/policy. The liberal media monopoly is over, but I think attacks such as the one you cite are a great way of showing what liberals are all about, so I hope they keep it up.People are sick and tired of being told that ordinary and decent people are fed up in this country with being sick and tired.

You may as well argue current events with Charles Manson. Stating the earth is 10,000 years old is a statement of a personal superstitious belief. I believe that a persons superstitious beliefs have no place in a politics, I wanna know about their views on reality. The fact of the matter is, most Democrats are smarter than Republicans on lots of things. http://www.gallup.com/poll/108226/republicans-democrats-differ-creationism.aspx Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I am in agreement with you on this item though, really. I don't want a president that thinks the Earth is just a few thousand years old either. I know Huntsman would likely not be so foolish to believe it, but it will be interesting to see the results of what the others think, as I think it will become a test question used against the candidates. Blindly accepting religious dogma isn't a trait I want in a president, so the liberal candidates should face questions regarding how blindly they follow their religion(s) - social and economic justice/environmentalism/etc.People are sick and tired of being told that ordinary and decent people are fed up in this country with being sick and tired.

SkyChimp 0 #11 August 24, 2011 Party association is irrelevant.... the fact is that voting is not a constitutional right. Therefore we need a test to establish knowledge and comprehension in order to issue a license to exercise that privilege which is parallel to receiving the license to drive a car. Don't fret your mind over which party is more educated over the other.... that's petty subjective stuff. Does anyone else find it funny that we made a SPORT out of an EMERGENCY PROCEDURE?!?!

I have shown you countless studies that show the average Democrat has a higher level of education than the average Republican. Why do you think the average wage of a Republican is lower than a Democrat? Perhaps this is why you fight more funding for schools, you want everyone to be on more common ground. Your grasp of basic logic is comedic, perhaps this is why you resort to showing childish videos to try and make yourself feel better.
