Reality has a liberal bias.

Defective circuit components.

I'm tired of being told that modern conservatism is a feature and not a bug.

Let's see...Jimmy Carter has been both the president of the United States and a Sunday school teacher.  His faith permeates his life.  He's a man of integrity who not only speaks the words, he lives the words.  

Thus, when you give to the needy, sound no trumpet before you, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may be praised by others. Truly, I say to you, they have received their reward. But when you give to the needy, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing, so that your giving may be in secret. And your Father who sees in secret will reward you. "And when you pray, you must not be like the hypocrites. For they love to stand and pray in the synagogues and at the street corners, that they may be seen by others. Truly, I say to you, they have received their reward. ...

Far too many in our political class see religious faith as only another check box, one that when trumpeted far and wide will bring in a few more votes.

So go ahead and call him a doosh, Guido.  I think he can take it.

Come freakin on Ed. He called YOUR country a bunch of human rights violators. This country gives tons and tons of cash to help the needy all over the planet and to have that jack@ss call us  inhumane on the land led by one of the biggest human rights violators is a damned joke. Sheesh Ed, I never would have thought you would take Kim Jong il's position. And stop using religion as a justification for a person's actions because it is a rarity to see this sort of response from you when religious principles are at play in an issue when that issue is inconsistent with your positions.

I get tired of being told I have the intelligence of a grub worm, I'm (supposedly) a racist, I want children and poor people to starve in the snow... because I'm right of center, not even ready to fall in the Atlantic Ocean (far right).

Ok, I was going easy before, but you're clearly either trolling or are a bucking moron. We are capable of doing both good and bad things, you know.

RA, who said that?

Don't worry Ed.  The Forum Police says it's just the AW at it again.

RA, who said that?

Some guy named General Attitude and not to me personally but to things I generally believe in.

[guido911]

I think its fairly clear when the biggest loser in this forum, our policeman, rushes to your aid, you are on the losing side. That guy is incapable of formulating an intelligent thought. And Nate, nice to know how big of a peanut farmer fan you are. Who's the frakking moron?

[guido911]

Nate. What exactly do you do for a living and what level of education have you achieved? I seriously want to know because you called me out.

I think it's fairly clear that when you resort to saying "well, look who agrees with you", you're lacking a leg to stand on. Face it, we can be doing lots of good in the world and still be doing other people wrong. "The world" is not one monolithic entity.

RA, if you're not a self-identified neocon or Tea Partier, most Democrats I know would at worst think you have a different idea about what's good for the country than they do. There are always the nutter butters who hate everyone and everything that doesn't agree with them or somehow fit in with their pre-existing beliefs.

Personally, my quibble is with the people who are actively attempting to destroy government by intentionally running it into the ground. People who disagree with me about exactly what government should be doing but believe in the fundamental necessity and propriety of some government are people with whom I have a reasonable disagreement. People who want a return to the 50s are misguided, in my opinion. People who want to return to the crony capitalism of the gilded age need to be beaten about the head with a clue-by-four.

Guido, education and moronity are two completely separate things. Some of the most educated and talented people I know are utter morons. Refusing to use simple logic is one of the things that indicates that a person might be a moron. Think with your head, not your rage. Thx.

Edited to add: Another example of moron...me even bothering to respond to your post in the first place. That was moronic.

I have to admit I was somewhat surprised at your response to my suggestion that Reality having a liberal bias needed adjusting. I thought that with my reference to circuit components you would understand the comparison to setting the bias on a transistor (for example) with (often) resistors. If one of those components goes out of tolerance or is intentionally changed, the bias is changed.  I didn't have anything earth shattering in mind, just a tweak to the right.

Gutless coward. Answer the damned question "ye you adjudicates the moronic".
