Power and liberalism corrupt; absolute power and absolute liberalism corrupt absolutely.

If this is the case why don't we make liberalism illegal as our Founders intended since the more of it we have the more corruption we will have!

Thomas Jefferson:
"Our country is now taking so steady a course as to show by what road it will pass to destruction, to wit: by consolidation of power first, and then corruption, its necessary consequence."

 

Statists will do anything (legal or illegal) to expand the power of the state over individuals.

Government is their religion and they worship government no differently than Christians worship God.

 

why do you think they value individual liberty and basic American principles so little?

 

You need more than one topic to post on James.

They are all the same, just worded a bit differently.

 

Because their ultimate goal is "equality". To them, equality means the equality of results ... income redistribution in the extreme. The only way to achieve that is an all-powerful federal government that has complete control over what we think, say, and do. It's "big brother" on steroids.

So any person, group, religion, or political party that talks about limiting the power of government will be squashed like a bug. And eliminating individual rights is just a necessary step toward establishing the necessary totalitarian state.

 

there is only one major topic in human history: freedom versus govt. Makes sense?

 

What the alien conspiracy?

 

interesting, our Founders thought inequality was better and a sign of freedom or liberty

Most notably, Madison in Federalist 10 pointed out, “From the protection of different and unequal faculties of acquiring property, the possession of different degrees and kinds of property immediately results.” That inequality would be a sign of the new nation’s success, not failure. It would mean that people were really free."

 

There is nothing in common between the Founding Fathers and modern day leftists.

 

There...all fixed

 

yes I guess that is why our liberals spied for Stalin and why now they support the likes of Obama, Sanders, and Warren, all pretty much open communists.

 

do you want me to show you actual communists talking about obama et al

because the way you think the world is is not the way the world is at all

 

sure Communis were disappointed with Obama because they had one of the round in the White House but he couldn’t act communist or introduce communist legislation because the Supreme Court Congress the press and the electorate were for the most part not communist Are you still confused?

 

Another "Liberalism is the devil" post.

And some liberalism=communism thrown in for good measure.

My eyes are sore from rolling.

 

Sean Hannity corrupts. Absolute Sean Hannity corrupts absolutely.

Bigfoot corrupts. Absolute Bigfoot corrupts absolutely.

Roswell corrupts. Absolute Roswell corrupts absolutely.

Lord Acton corrupts. Absolute Lord Acton corrupts absolutely.

What a fun game.

Got any more?

 

so obama is a communist despite not expressing any communist beliefs, using communist rhetoric, or doing any communist things. and you know this by some Wonderous Ratiocination.

i'm pretty sure you're just full of ****, but go on, explain how this makes sense.

 

notice that as a typical liberal you lack the ability to say something in support of liberalism
or against conservatism. Your eyes are rolling and your liberal brain is silent. This is typical. This is why liberals violently oppose free speech.

 

notice as a typical liberal you lacked the ability to say why you disagreed with op.

 

Obama is a communist because he had 3 communist parents, loved Rev Wright, and voted to left of Bernie Sanders. Are you still confused?

 

Man, that's deep. What an original thought. Thanks for sharing.

 

do you have the ability to say if you agree or disagree and why?

 

The statement that you referred to is so ORIGINAL.

That is so ORIGINAL that it deserves to be recited as a Hindu Mantra.

Maybe even a neck tattoo.

Such ORIGINAL insight from the member that you quoted.

 

issue is not originality but whether you have IQ to say in words if you agree or disagree and why?

 

Because you would first need to explain what "liberalism" is.

 

Because those values would result in starvation. Look at the demographics. They are huddled together in huge cities where they are completely dependent upon the outside world for their food, lumber, clothes, and water. That dependence upon the hard work of others is probably as scary for them as it would be for you and me. The difference is that they really don't know how to grow crops or slaughter their own food.

Wherever you find a lot of leftists, you will find a lot of people who couldn't grow a potato to save their life. That dependency scares them, and fear results in hatred, which turns into violence. It's very simple reptilian brain cognition that controls them, and there is no flight option for them, so they fight against the very thing that would destroy them, which is individual liberty.
