Do they still have mills running in socialist societies? Maybe it won't be so bad then. :)

"Why don't you try "roasting" me on the issue of capital punishment? Care to defend the electric chair?"
I wouldn't call the electric chair as much a conservative thing as a poor compromise.
IMO the criminal justice system could use some major changes. Taking care of criminals is too expensive. We should abolish the death penalty and bring back gladiatorial combat. That way, we could actually make money from ticket sales.

I think that applying natural selection to the worst members of our society would have some serious consequences. All of the meanest, badest, most terrifying murderers would survive, and would of course conquer the world. (At least diplomat1824 would be happy that Obama would be out of power, if this happened!)

Im going to go out on a limb here and guess Diplomats background based on how he has argued so far

Age: 13-20 (based on the fact he made a thread to try and assert his idealogical superiority)
Location: The South, maybe as far north as Tennessee and Kentucky (pure speculation, but there isnt a hint of moderation in his statements, and the south is Republican country)
Reason for views: Because Liberals are evil and are destroying America

I would happily debate you diplomat1824 but get the impression that you are not really interested in a rational discussion. There are some excellent conservative arguments, but when attempt to overstate a case with by referring to Obama as an "extremist liberal" and "communism" and "terrorist" you undermine your credibility.

Haha. valoishapsburg. You are so off. I'm not a rascist redneck who happens to own a computer, which is what you are implying. I am a highly educated person who does not live in the south and knows what he is talking about.

I never called him a terrorist. I just said his relationships (not that kind of relationships) with Bill Ayers and Rev. Wright are suspicious.

So tell us about yourself Diplomat. And tell us what you believe, instead of Fox News talking points.

Another thing. I KNOW Obama won. I just can't wait until 1/21/09, when Obama is going to do something unintelligent and I get to say "I told you so" to about 55% of America.

And one more thing: Fox News is unbiased, and they do not influence my political views. The liberal media is just tricking everyone into thinking Fox News is biased.

Treefarn, I believe everything in previous posts on this thread. Tell me when you get the attention span to actually read the entire thread before making a post.

If everyone in America read the book "How to Win a Fight With a Liberal", then everyone would have voted for John McCain. Unfortunatly, it didn't go that way.

Yes, I read the entire post. And I saw the 'Ayers, Reverand Wright' and I'm waiting for the 'he's a secret muslim'.

I can't believe people are actually taking this dipshit seriously...

No, he's a Christian. If Obama was a Muslim, he would be a very bad one. You are aware that Muslims are required to pray five times in the direction of Mecca every day? How could he do that on the campaign trail, when everyone is watching him like a fish in a fishbowl?

Katsarephat, I can't believe that people actually buy Obama's false campaign promises and overall liberal bullshit.

"Fox News is unbiased...The liberal media is just tricking everyone into thinking Fox News is biased."

If there was a way to discredit yourself universally...lol, that was it!

Thanks for playing diplomat1824. You've made not one rational argument. Dare I say, Troll?!

I miss Sicarius.

I dont think you are a racist, you certainly havent presented yourself as one. Notice "Pure speculation" but when I think die hard republican I think about the stereotype of the south. I would like it if you would assert some of your claims rather just inserting a comment and not actually arguing it. If you want to have a real discussion then please, let's discuss, if you want to discuss something you got from a book called "How to win a fight with a Liberal," (an unbiased source I presume?) then thats something different.

Darwyn, please read my post that I made at 5:47 P.M. (G.M.T. -5) That was a rational arguement.

And that is opposed to McCains 100% true statements and Palins constant bashing of Obama instead of focusing on her "Amazing Things" she could do.

valoishapsburg, you seem to like attacking me. Okay. Go ahead. Free shot. Anything's fair game. I dare you to.

Attack you on what? I dont want to attack you. I think the premis of this thread is ridiculous. If you want to debate then debate, but I dont think you have done that so far.

Just for the record, I don't like Palin. I wish McCain had chosen Romney. (I'm not Mormon)

It's much less rational and more speculative. It just seems, as others have mentioned, that you are doing nothing more than repeating conservative talking points.

The thread itself was a deliberate attempt to incite liberals, no? How is that rational? If you truly wanted rational debate, why start out with being inflammatory?

then you liked his platform of "I'm not Bush"
or you liked the fact the he would keep us in war for as long as possible... and has anyone noticed that Gas Prices have gone down since bush became a lame duck? (knock on wood)

I didn't think people would take all this so seriously when I said I supported the roasting of liberals. It seemed to me that the whole idea and tone of the first post just had to be satirical. You know, a Friar's Club Roast instead of a impassioned exchange of ideas.

That's what the world really needs. We need to be able to laugh at each other. For God's sake, all of you lighten up!

great...
you just brought religion into this argument too... GOOD JOB

I'm with Invictus on this one.
