It describes irrational liberal thinking, feelings of envy, jealousy, inferiority, revenge, and victimization.

Very well put. Another wise man once summed it up by saying "liberalism is a mental disorder." You're both on the same page.

Do you have anything to contribute beyond your hatred of liberals?

Troll.

Utopia only exists in the mind of irrational liberals. The beauty of freedom is equality of opportunity, not equality of results. Thats why libs hate freedom, the results are not equal. MOMMY -ITS NOT FAIR - HE'S GOT MORE THAN ME !!!

LOL. Statement 1 contradicted by statement 3, separated by a strawman.

Quality argumentation there, Tex.

I hate freedom? No. I do, however, dislike trolls who believe that they know how I think just because they've branded me as a lib. I also wonder why, if abeabe likes freedom so much, he hasn't felt free to set up his own forum upon which he and like-minded people can further their agenda without having to deal with us pesky free-thinking types.

Every forum I've ever been to is the same it all boils down to libs and cons battling it out in cyberspace. I think everyone in here takes these comments too personally and most resort to "name calling"... what other six year old tactics work in cyberspace? You can't shove, kick, or throw anything. What's the quote from the Bible about... casting stones?

I haven't felt too represented lately..... have you?

I haven’t felt too represented lately….. have you?

In some ways, yes. In other ways, no.

Some of us are trying to have discussions, and some are trolls with the maturity of six year olds. Or younger.

my guy just got shot down by Fiorina, Wrecker of Tech, in the primary. Same poor dude lost to Feinstein in 2000, too.

He needs to choose his opponents better.

Representatives don't represent me, they represent the entire electorate. Since the electorate's heads have rocks in them, I think our politicians are doing a good job of representing them.

My quote of the day!

All healthy developmental influences from infancy to competent maturity enhance both individual autonomy and mutuality with others. Acquiring occupational and social skills in preparation for adult living in a free society is central to that development. Competence in these areas permits the achievement of individual self-responsibility and a necessary basis for voluntary economic and social cooperation.

Big government, liberal mentality, and invasive social policies, however, foster economic irresponsibility, pathological dependency, and social conflict (and name calling by some of the more infantile posters here at Patrick.net).

Ellie "infantile?" Who would have guessed it?

I think it's cute the way you write my name and add to it every time.

Free enterprise embodies the values that made us the greatest nation on earth. Values such as individual liberty, equal opportunity, entrepreneurship, and self-reliance.

Unfair distribution of wealth is caused by government distortion of the free market. Indeed the recent economic crisis has further distorted our values and given a small minority who oppose freedom and free enterprise a pretext for making sweeping social(istic) change. Change which includes expanding bureaucracies, increasing income redistribution, less freedom, the loss of individual rights, more taxes, and government controlled corporations...not a pretty picture.

HOPE and CHANGE is really doublespeak for HOPE and CHAINS.
