A very poignant question by salisburyboy, but sadly, we know what the answer is.

Was there an intention to actually say something meaningful, or were you just enjoying the sound of your voice as usual?

Quote :

You mean fuck the terrorist who advocates killing other people as well as the democratically elected leader of a country who admittedly has questionable policies?

8/24/2005 11:14:35 AM

I don't care if he was democratically elected, he is still an asshole.

As for Pat, he too is an asshole, even if he was never cruel enough to win public office.

As far as I can tell, Chavez is far worse than Pat, because Pat only takes advantage of people voluntarily. Meanwhile, Chavez sends in the democratically elected secret police to disappear you.

8/24/2005 11:48:44 AM

Pat today:

Quote :

"I didn't say 'assassination.' I said our special forces should 'take him out.' And 'take him out' can be a number of things, including kidnapping; there are a number of ways to take out a dictator from power besides killing him. I was misinterpreted by the AP [Associated Press], but that happens all the time"

Pat yesterday:

Quote :

"If he thinks we're trying to assassinate him, I think we really ought to go ahead and do it. It's a whole lot cheaper than starting a war"

mmmk. what am i misinterpreting here?

too bad an overwhelming majority of the venezuelans want chavez as their leader. therefore, we have no right to say otherwise

and if you loneshark say we do then you are a hypocrit.

Another broken commandment.

Reguarding the backpedaling: He is such a fucking liar!

What a douche.

8/24/2005 7:55:48 PM

Kidnapping Chavez didn't turn out so well during the attempted coup. The Venezuelan people rioted in the streets until he was released.

8/24/2005 8:13:59 PM

In all seriousness, Chavez probably should be killed.

8/25/2005 1:02:26 PM

amazing

this should be the final nail in his public coffin

but it won't be

i hope we can get a really good photoshop of him crawling through the venezualen jungles

8/25/2005 1:09:12 PM

democracy in other countries is only ok if they decide to do what we want them to

"Republicans also take Robertson seriously. He heads up the Christian Coalition...which is a highly mobilized and funded political machine. Robertson and his group have a large amount of political clout on Capital Hill, and shouldn't be underestimated.

No, he doesn't, and hasn't for like 4 years.

That's news to the Republican Party of North Carolina, which hasn't updated its web-site since construction. At least, that's what I heard in the brick-yard...

8/25/2005 2:22:53 PM

^^ Whatever. He founded the Christian Coalition. Bottom line is that he still carries a lot of political weight with both the CC and the Republican party.

^ Look at the huge swing to the far right that the republican party has taken in the past 2 elections. It's all to nurture,develop, and retain the conservative Christian voter base.

Case in Point:
Ronald Reagan passed some of the most liberal abortion laws in the history of the state of California during his time as governor. However, he suddenly decided to run a straight pro-life platform in his presidential campaigns...all because he'd lose the conservative Christian vote...which is highly influenced by the Christian Coalition.

[Edited on August 25, 2005 at 2:31 PM. Reason : .]

8/25/2005 2:26:30 PM

And because we don't all live in California.

Reagan was over 20 years ago, and that is your evidence that the republican party has changed? Sounds to me like you are demonstrating how it has remained the same.

8/25/2005 3:17:41 PM

naw im just saying that the republican party has developed its platform to cater to the desires of the conservative Christian voter base. My whole point is that Robertson and the Christian Coalition carry a lot of political clout.

8/25/2005 3:25:34 PM

And so does the Cato Institute. So what?
