Bah, I was a monarchist and something of a libertarian when I was 15. Then I started learning things about how the world really works and what my stances entailed.

This is "Taking America Back," a book that people who bought plumpster's book liked.

quote:
Farah calls for churches and religious institutions to assume a broader role in molding the national character, including actively censoring the entertainment industry and having a direct role in education and family life. There's certainly a choir out there to whom Farah can preach, but most readers will find both his positions and his rhetoric uncomfortably extreme.


We all know what the church having a role in family life means.

But what was funny was....

1 person recommended The Words We Live By: Your Annotated Guide to the Constitution instead of Taking America Back


Whoever recommended that Brilliant satire.

How did the commie cross the road?

He started a revolution which stopped traffic.

But then came along the government troops...

You know...

I was 14 when I ran the Alpha Centauri Nexus and no one really had a problem with me except my grammar was lacking now and then.

Maybe I'm just incredibly great though.

lefties are mentally deranged. How can someone see the world like that, do they not understand basic human behaviour? some human behaviour cannot be changed...

And I don't think anyone should be writing books about being a conservative until they've had sex with a hot intern and learned the perks of being a liberal.

There's a reason why people become more conservative as they get older: they know better.

You definitely wouldn't want to be a liberal around me at 30.

That is why I have invented Cooperative Communism, Most buisnesses are owned by co-ops, not by the government. it is Communist, yet it is not a command economy, which never works, it is a true free market economy controlled by the workers themselves.

We are not mentally dammaged, my fellow comrades just have to realize that a Communist society doen't require a command economy.

1. who?
2. what are the prequisites for being classified a "lefty" in your opinion
3. see the world like what?
4. are you serious or trolling?

If you're serious:
sorry diss, but your overgeneralizations are the cause of my complaints. There are 300 million people in the US (or so) and not coincidentally, there are 300 million different opinions. People aren't the same. They don't fall into two categories, left and right. Most people, when given the facts and have time to form an educated opinion, are usually pretty rational. Extremism, especially political, is rare. The vast majority of Americans consider themselves to be independent. That's why sometimes Republicans win, sometimes Democrats win. Please stop overgeneralizing people and putting people in two categories (1. Dissident and the people who agree with him, 2. deranged lefties)
