...So what does it mean, this "revolution"? What does it mean, this concern that "they will move to the right"? What else could it mean but a revolution akin to that in Russia?...
How about one akin to the American Revolution? (How 'bout those rabble-rousing radical revolutionaries: our Founding Fathers?) The French Revolution? More recently the Velvet, Orange, Rose, and Tulip Revolutions? For that matter the Cedar Revolution? And also the Blue Revolution in Kuwait? (Admittedly, the Purple Revolution hasn't worked out so well...yet? :`)

What would motivate anyone to pursue earning more money if the tax rate is 75% (as in Stinkie's example in another post)?
Don't twist my words, it's bad form.
Oh, I wasn't twisting your words, stinkie. I was giving the 75% tax rate (you said you paid) as an example of that level of taxation at which I think capitalists would begin to lose desire to earn more. I can say this because I have experience, I'm a capitalist, you're not.
I understand you don't mind paying high taxes, I very much do mind.
-
Oh, allrighty then. I am a capitalist, though. Let me put it this way: I'm a mildly leftist, considerate capitalist. I like to make money (yay, money!), but I do not mind sharing it. I'm not always over the moon with joy when I see how much taxes I have to pay (who is?), but in the end I feel it's for the better.

Pat Buchanan? LMFAO, why not post an article from Rush limbaugh?
Here is the original of your post from his site 'RIGHT from the beginning' http://buchanan.org/blog/
??? This is the exact same video as the one Rick posted. Anyway, we both will criticize the others sources as bias. And, of course, they are, aren't they? So don't be too shocked.
-
Stinkie, I've never been shy about sharing my money with those who need it. I just want to be the one making the decision, not the government.
-
Ron, no Rick linked to MSNBC (a left leaning site) however the article is from a fundementally right contributor.
and yes, we choose our talking points from our bias resources, thats why I have always said I am biased and I have clearly made up my mind.
-
Pete, off topic..sorry...I've been meaning to ask you about the "fantasy village" model on your web site. It's very cool, what is it?
-
I seem to recall it's something he did for a game. Neat, huh?
-
To stay on topic, I will PM you.

Palin Stars In McCain Robocall After Calling Them Irritating
Sarah Palin may have condemned robocalls yesterday as intrusive and a drain on people's attention spans, but that didn't stop her from recording her own robocall on behalf of the McCain campaign.
Two readers report to us that they received robocalls starring Palin herself -- one in Wisconsin, and the other in Nevada.

Ron, Rick,
An article from the Wall Street Journal that I found interesting, seems like Powell has opened a dialogue that has republicans and conservatives picking sides on.
-
And what about the last one from the wall Street journal (Right wing) ???
-
I was just (absurdly) echoing your absurd rant about my Buchanan article link. That's all - just to illustrate.
Re: the WSJ article - it's not new(s) (nor is the WSJ right-wing). The discussion has been ongoing before Powell weighed in. Maybe not in the media, but certainly among the people.
-
Huffington Post? ROFL! What a maroon... you might as well have posted something from the Rev. Jeremiah Wright.
(clarification: "maroon" referred to Ariana, not Solo)

I was not aware thet there was much disagreement within the conservative ranks about her, I assumed by the 'hype' that they were all energized and hypnotized by her presence.
What I do not quite understand as is the talk of a 'Reagan republican' vs an 'Ike republican' vs a 'Nixon republican', what is the differences?

What the heck:

I'll join in with the sophomoric symbol crap:
