RonD1120 62 #126 April 24, 2015 I feel safe in my house, unless relatives visit from FL. In town is also safe. They are easy to spot up here in the mountains. My point is that liberals, such as you and billvon, et.al., will attack regardless of my statements because of what I stand for. I cannot make a neutral statement. Six years ago I came here with an intention of being positive. That did not last long. I have since enjoyed the role of flame magnet. It is great therapy for me and for all the liberals dealing with their pent up anger. Right wing conservative Christians just live with more joy. It's all good.Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit. They only last for an instant but it is a Holy Instant. Let your soul absorb them.

I think you have a perception problem Ron...... Your use of the liberal label from the standpoint of anyone not in goose step with those of you on the far right is disingenuous. If you had a chance to meet our Lord in person.... I am pretty sure you and most of the "compassionate" conservatives I have run into would label him a liberal. I think yall might just have missed the boat on what he really taught.... not what the shill's in King James committee think he taught based on what their king wanted in his bible.

rehmwa 2 #130 April 24, 2015 jakeeIn short, it's all the content free cartoon politics of the USA without any of the bombast and over-hyped grandeur that makes it at all interesting. over hyping is our job - heck, I'll start you note QuoteThen the media has become so obsessed with 'balance' that they're filling half the airwaves with minority parties that, with the best will in the world, are irrelevant sideshows So my response is immediate and certain - "So, you think balance with minorities and equity for brown people is just an irrelevant sideshow? That's revealing.... Typical of the Brits to be so incredibly racistss. The sun certainly never sets on the atrocities theyv comited through history and today." Note the obligatory misspellings and the blatant refusal to see the word 'parties' in 'minority parties'. Next I would refuse to listen to why you think it's a sideshow and continue to strawman and insult in a PC fun way. But see how fun it can be? ...

wmw999 2,545 #139 April 24, 2015 That's just.so.funny. You're usually way more thoughtful than that. At least as funny and witty as "conservatards," "demokkkrats," and all the other words that people use. They're all ways to point out the differences between us, so that we're less likely to work together on issues that we all face together. Remember that "united we stand, divided we fall" thing?

Meh. The Scottish parliament came cap-in-hand to be bailed out by the English. There was no war for there to be any "victors". Even the development of Scottish oil was underwritten by the English.
