Subject: Mindless Cheerleader
In reply to: Law Abiding Tax Paying Citizen (Just Give Me Good Radio) 's message, "No comment because the subject is boring. In case you haven't been following along, the posters on this board are concerned with more pressing issues, such as the effect FCC dereg has had on the radio broadcasting industry and the resultant dullness of the programming content. Perhaps another board would be better venue for your ranting about the IRS." on 16:44:58 07/02/03 Wed

(I know I posted this earlier, but I was concerned it might not be read)

By the way Mr. Man O'Law, it is the very same FCC that your taxes are paying for, so why are you complaining now. You get what you pay for. You really don't get it do you? Let me help you understand why I call you a mindless cheerleader.

The taxes you pay supposedly go to the things you support and the things you don't support. In other words you may like supporting the Military, but you don’t wand to support the Rev. Jesse Jackson's love child, pornography art or sexual leather parties in San Fran with your tax dollar isn't that true? That is exactly what you do. Now explain to me how that makes sense?

If I place equal bets on both fighters in a boxing competition, I'll probably break even won't I. Now how did you break even giving your money to the Rev. Jesse Jackson? Your question is on the end of the issue. It should be at the beginning to understand that you pay for a problem that you don't have to pay for. If you are paying attention still, it is the FCC that is indirectly regulating what you hear and what should be important to you. Why are you surprized you pay for it ? Your tax dollars fund every side of every issue. Now that makes sense.

Mike, by now I'm sure you're aware that this "Law Abiding Tax Paying Citizen" doesn't have the common sense God gave to a watermelon, which is why he cannot answer any of the questions we have raised, let alone even understand the concepts.

Posting about a segment of the entertainment industry is more important to this amoeba than the fact that our nation has entered into a new age where the Consitutitional protections of free speech have now been rendered null and void!

But since this flag waving yahoo is likely unemployed and thus not worrying about confiscatory and illegal tax policies that usurp the fruits of his labors BECAUSE HE DOESN'T PRODUCE ANY LABOR OR ANYTHING ELSE OF VALUE THAT CAN BE TAXED, he naturally has plenty of time to contemplate what he THINKS is important in his life, i.e., who will be the latest talking head on the radio to blow smoke up his ass concerning the supposed differences between demokkkrats and republikkkans. And if he gets tired of that he can always switch on Entertainment Tonight to find the answer to REALLY pressing issues such as who has bigger breasts, Britney Spears or Jack Osbourne!

To a ward of the state such as LATPC, Freedom and Liberty means the right to be able to choose between WPHT and WIP on the radio, not the right to live in a society where the government has few peacetime powers and must account for its actions to the people it supposedly serves. And FORGET about the right to free speech! Being able to call and ask a gubmit grunt about why the latest welfare check is late, or how he can obtain more food stamps is the extent of the "free speech" a parasite such as this guy would be concerned with.

Another sobering thought for tomorrow: there are now more people working for the United States government than there are working in the entire manufacturing industry. This has been true for several years now.

Happy Fourth of July!
