I just can't put up with the whole "your side loves taxes and hates babies" bullshit for any extended period of time.JBWhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13293642610215334516noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5428824763182540039.post-79637970149679325552008-12-25T00:55:00.000-08:002008-12-25T00:55:00.000-08:00Franken uses an interesting analogy.I'd add that, ...Franken uses an interesting analogy.<BR/>I'd add that, on the other hand, many - far from all, but many - conservatives also view liberals as children. Or emotionally and morally underdeveloped subadults.<BR/><BR/>How many times have we heard a variation of "oh liberals are like children stomping their foot when they don't get their way..."<BR/>Like when a neocon does it, it's somehow perfectly reasonable moral outrage.<BR/><BR/>"they always want someone else to bail them out and never take responsibility... " ?<BR/>Oh god forbid Bush be responsible for the deaths of thousands and a shit economy.<BR/><BR/>And this all usually comes right after "and liberals just love taxes. Whatever you've earned (or inherited)... they just want to take it away and give it someone as undeserving as they can possibly find"<BR/><BR/>yep... dunno about you JBW, but I sure as heck don't want MY money...<BR/>I just want to give it all to some lazy shmuck, for him to spend on drugs. Then I'm going to rationalize killing babies - but defend convicted murderers because I like them much better. Then I'm going to back-stab our troops, because I really want my country defeated and I'll profit from it (I'll be fucked if know how I'll profit from it, but never mind...). <BR/><BR/>...you get the picture. <BR/><BR/>Actually... I don't get any welfare, amazingly I don't actually enjoy being taxed, I'm in favor of intelligent military intervention (which taxes pay for), and I love babies.Van Zanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07115550635674711315noreply@blogger.com
