Any readers with intelligence must be having a difficult time sifting through all the swill being disgorged from the gaping maws of the MORONS (Conservatives) posting lately. Fear not, for I have returned to force their ignorance back whence it came.

First off, Rob:
Our great nation will not self distruct as your extremist ramblings so darkly fortell. It will simply evolve. Societies have seldomly imploded as you imply like all of you other conservative imps. To quote someone very wise:

"History does not repeat itself, but it rhymes." - Mark Twain

Please read the following link and draw your own conclusions about the parody implied by my post:
<a rel=nofollow target=_blank href="http://www.roman-empire.net/republic/caesar-index.html">http://www.roman-empire.net/republic/caesar-index.html</a>

For those of you too lazy to do the reading, Julius Caesar grew up in Rome during a time of civil war and massive unemployment, which was due to the importation from France of cheap slave labor. He appointed himself dictator of Rome and neutered the roman Senate. This is the embodiment of conservatism; "You don't know how to run a country, so I will do it for you."

An interesting parallel can be drawn between ancient Rome and the United States. The similarity lies in the fact that Roman society has evolved into what our nation now represents. It has not been destroyed, it has never gone away. The difference between our nation and Rome is that instead of just one branch of government, we have three; legislative, judicial, and executive. Our system is one of checks and balances. If this fails us, which I can agree may happen, then we will evolve into a new society. However, the greatness that is our nation will endure as has the greatness of Rome.

Second, Taxes and Shrub:

The data supplied by Rob on Shrub's tax cuts is, at it's very best, incomplete. Rob has neglected to take into account that bush cut taxes by raising tax brackets and creating a new one. Taxpayers in the lower half ended up paying 12% before Shrub, just like they do now. The lower 50% pays less than 4% of taxes any how. What he did was murder our economy by lowering the governments cash flow and increasing government spending.. Conservatives are the ones who borrow from peter to pay paul - Don't swallow their rightist swill.

And lets not forget, Shrub actually benefited the upper half with his Tax cuts. See my previous post, "Do your research."

Third, Schilda:

You are right about Rob, he is pro-Shrub. Rob-bashing is OK, he bashes back plenty. By the way Schilda, I still maintain that you are by far the most eloquent of any who post here. I hope I can pick up on some of it.

Remember people that Conservatives are Morons. Never intentionally label yourself as a conservative, because if you do, then you will bring the wrath of the fleas from a thousand camels upon your arm pits.
