You have to be a member of the species Nutjobicus Americanus to understand the meaning conveyed by that visual depiction and it's relevance to the abortion debate in this thread, and Lonesome Nutjob's query as to what universities I attended.

In the world of the nutjob somehow this all fits together!



Well I did laugh but fail to see the relevance

My, my, our wild eyed Bolshevik is so serious about fundamentally changing us that he doesn't have time to reminisce over those old frat pranks of yore. Too busy organizing the unenlightened masses?

See that is funny. Anyone to the right of Ghenghis Khan is a Bolshevik.

Let me guess....you have a Sarah Palin, uh, a"action" doll?

What is there to respond to? FDR said a prayer for the troops landing at Normandy. I would have too if I were alive then.

There would be a big difference between that and, say, trying to force everyone in the country to adhere to your religious beliefs about when life begins.

I don't expect you to understand that, but I'll try.

OK back to business. i noticed the accuser of all nut cases doesn't want to respond to this. Anyone else game?

I have yet to invoke God in any of this. That is you type casting me as all liberals have a need to do.

The irony in this statement is off the scale:

Ok, you are a secular humanist. I forgot. I don't care if you "invoke" God or not. You are making an essentially religious, or metaphysical, or philosophical, decision about when life begins and then seeking to force all others to accept that.

Does your cabin have running water? How do you power your internet connection in such a way that the jackboots can't detect you? Is your bomb making room decorated in primary colors, or do you like a more earthly hue while you go about your business?

Who hurt you, Jeff?
 
Once again, a human sperm impregnates a human egg which creates a unique, new string of human DNA. A person. Pure biology 101.

Show a fraction of compassion for this new human as you do for the convicted Serial Rapist Murderer.

Hmmmmmm, maybe if we called it a delayed abortion you'd be all for it! Eureka! Women find him inconvenient.
 
"We can't expect the American People to jump from Capitalism to Communism, but we can assist their elected leaders in giving them small doses of Socialism, until they awaken one day to find that they have Communism. " Nikita Khrushchev
 
Pure Communism doesn't work ask Russia or China
Pure Capitalism doesn't work look at USA (pure capitalism requires the banks and car companies to go bust not bailed out)

What does work - your guess as good as mine - no working models in the world that keep everyone happy - so someone has to be unhappy.

The root of the problem could be in that human nature is flawed and we keep falling foul of wrath, greed, sloth, pride, lust, envy, and gluttony.

If capitalism in the US were "pure," they would have been allowed to fail and a more efficient model would fill the void.

Chrysler has been bailed out three times now, the government screwed the stock holders in favor of the unions that crippled the car makers to begin with, and on top of everything else, the gave control to Fiat, Fix It Again Tony!!!!!!!!

And here's the kicker, being run by the government means not having to honor warranties;

GM Refuses to Repair 400,000 Chevrolet Impalas, Says it's “Old GM's" Responsibility - Carscoop

Why people think that politicians, who have never run a business, made a payroll, etc. know better how to run everything will never make sense to me.
 
No business should be too big to fail. That's what separates the wheat from the chaff. We wouldn't have companies like AIG frolicking on our tax dollar.

The government thinks they know how to manage everything better, even than nature (I dare not say God here).

When a species is unable to adapt to new circumstances, the Lefties come in and start artificially protecting fleas and darters and slugs, oh my!

I just sneezed out a bunch of unique human DNA. Arrest me for genocide!

Unique human DNA test as a test for personhood fails. Please try again.

Not that tough, son. When the DNA of the male sperm combines with the DNA of the woman's egg, it creates a new string of human DNA that is a new human being.

Listen now, real important, if the sperm fails to find the egg, or if the egg is not fertilized, they die and are refreshed with new sperms and eggs, and on it goes.

So, wanking yourself, blowing your nose and getting it all over your face and hands is not the murder of a human being.

Don't they teach you anything but Marxism in those schools? Heck, you can't even come up with a cool tune to contribute.

You hit the nail firmly on the head there Bob.

Tax payers should be share holders in their country. The 'business' of a country should be run by business men/women with proven track records, reporting to the shareholders annually. Leave the Politicians to do politics.

I know that can't happen, but there ought to be a way to business-asize most of the daily routine elements of a country. Take local services as an example. When a Council tenders to outside companies to provide a service here, they have a budget to spend. Spend it and fall short is the true goal, allowing them to justify a request for more money next year. There is no incentive to get the job done for less/better value.

I guess that is the same in most Western/Capitalist countries?

Mark, and why have politicians not heard of zero based budgeting? Isn't it time that we impose that upon our politicians and make the justify each line item of expense? This form of budgeting has been in place for years in the private sector. Why not in government?
