Still mad about those two elections, huh?

BK, you forgot to include the second half of the line you quoted me on. Here it is again:

"Just as there are MANY people who have no understanding of the situation and support the war simply because Bush is for it."

I have no idea why you excluded that part. :wink:

I gess we did kinda "roll you up and smoke you" in those Congressionals and Gubernatorials. Did you ever stop to think "wow....maybe it's MY OWN party's policies that the breadbasket of America can see straight through and are really starting to dislike....hmmmm"..

Which party are you assuming I belong to? There are more than two, you know.

Funny thing about you leftists (Hi, Tom Morello!) is that you want to have your cake and eat it too...you want wealth, and yet you want the redistribution of wealth. You want a politically correct herd mentality for the masses, and yet you fancy your own self some sort of bourgeuosie "Academia". You don't give working people credit enough to lead them! Tell you what, you just keep fingerpointing and we'll just keep winning elections. Fair enough? :)

Really, I think the level of conservative discourse in this country is unfortunate. Perhaps conservatives should stop listening to the pundits and mouthpieces on the radio and start reading real conservative thought on the issues. Stop listening to Rush and start reading Buckley. I don't agree with either, but at least you'll have more than simplistic slogans to wrap your arguments up in.

I'm all for intelligent conservative thought, hell sometimes I even agree with it, but what exactly are you revealing about yourself when all you do is finger-point for a few sentences and then tell me to "just keep fingerpointing?"
