If you really want change, we have repeatedly proven that voting for a Democrat or a Republican results in little of no change. They talk different when running for office; but, when it comes right down to it nothing changes when...

ParaTed2k @ParaTed2k (22940) • Sheboygan, Wisconsin 29 Aug 11

In what can only be considered "making a deal with the devil" from both sides of the political spectrum, Ron Paul and Ralph Nader are talking about a "‘progressive-libertarian alliance’. I don't get it, if Ron Paul aligns...

Are the two political parties in the U.S. really that different.

mattic @mattic (282) • United States 6 Mar 11

The leftists want to reign in individual liberty by redistributing wealth in a collectivist plan. The righties want to reign in individual liberties by mandating their own moral code (i.e. DOMA). Either way, liberty suffers. I...

Koch Brothers... I don't get the problem

ParaTed2k @ParaTed2k (22940) • Sheboygan, Wisconsin 24 Feb 11

Much of the left is making a huge deal that the Koch bothers (billionaire business men) making contributions to conservative and libertarian political candidates' campaigns. Ok, I'm not denying that a bit. They do make those...

ParaTed2k @ParaTed2k (22940) • Sheboygan, Wisconsin 8 Nov 10

In the US, it is illegal for government funds or property to be used for purely partisan activities. So why are Presidential Primary Elections exempted? There is only one purpose for primary elections in presidential elections....

Stupid, meaningless and discussion bogging disclaimers

ParaTed2k @ParaTed2k (22940) • Sheboygan, Wisconsin 1 Nov 10

Ok, help me understand something here. During online discussions we often read comments and replies where people are taking the writer to task. The offense seems to be wrapped around the idea that every term needs to be qualified...

ParaTed2k @ParaTed2k (22940) • Sheboygan, Wisconsin 14 Sep 09
