This does seem the case.

I'd like someone to say otherwise.  Maybe that person would know something that we don't.

It would be much nicer to believe that we haven't come to such hysterics, than to believe we have.

Myself, sometimes I just can't believe what's happened to us.

Bernie Sanders is about as far left as I can think and he's not a communist

Seriously, I'll entertain most wacky posts of this site and even engage them but I have no more patience for certified idiots

I do believe that there are some far left people... Such as Nancy Pelosi who have said that the government should be able to take 99% of your income in taxes.

That is certainly a communist attitude.

We do know that many ppl who are in favor of higher taxes are not absolutely opposed to it as when they are asked to give a percentage that they feel would enough they refuse to answer.

I think we've asked you that numerous times and you've never given an answer.

that's the Pelosi quote

I can't find the quote where she said "the government should be able to take 99% of your income in taxes."

hasn't that been offered as evidence of communism?

where is the quote ?

To be fair, I'd love to have quotes from some of the guys who are now on this board, to reveal what they said about the GWB lurch toward fascism, and stolen power.

Sadly, many of those earlier posts have mysteriously been deleted.  :'(

I do know Aaron Russo's documentary "From Freedom to Fascism" was posted, and was laughed at, ridiculed, and got numerous eye rolls by certain people.

Many of the staunchest GWB supporters are now silent, ...either that or have changed their names.

I left the GOP in 2005 because of W.  Jorge Arbusto El Segundo is the reason for O-Twink in the first place.

They lost me around 2003 or so.

OMG!!! Heaven Help Me, ...I actually understood that.  :D

The fact that I was able to decrypt your shorthand is a sign that I'm either going insane or have been here too long.

I really like the dialogue in this thread.

Real discussion & communication without resorting to attempts at pwnage. Very nice.  :)

The cherry to top it off would be if Prime Muscle showed up with a pearl or two of sage wisdom. I like him.  :)

It's two old guard politicians who have lost sight (McCain) or are so squishy (Graham) that they can't see outside of the bubble and the status quo.

This is what happens when you don't have term limits and motherfuckers gerrymander the shit out of the localities to maintain position of power for too long.

I tell you what... I'll find that quote when you answer the percentage that should be completely acceptable for the country to take.

I oculdn't find it either and I doubt it exists

I assume since you can't find the quote that you will eliminate that "proof" as part of your belief that Pelosi is a communist  (refer back to my original post about not wanting to entertain 333"s delusions)

Yeah, the Jane Fonda quip was weird.  I'd like to hear his explanation.  Maybe he wanted to stir up memories of Jane Fonda protesting Vietnam, or something.

A bit further on this...yes, he was referring to activities associated with Jane Fonda's protest of the Vietnam War.  

If you look into it, you'll understand the point he was making.

He wasnt making any valid point at all.

just providing an absurd and hysterical example that had no basis whatsoever in reality.

If there isn't oversight, how can we be sure it doesn't have basis in reality?  

Do we use our trust, or what?
