I would not care to be a progressive liberal on this forum.

I love to discuss political issues in an intelligent fashion, and I have friends w/ vastly different opinions than my own. Sure, sometimes it gets a little heated because we are committed to our beliefs. Thing is, we can sit and discuss the issues w/o calling each other nasty names and judging each other. Maybe I'm a bit naive, but I can't understand ehy we can't address issues w/o personally attacking each other. Some of the posts here would make a stellar ...

MTStars will begin a major upgrade of our forum software starting on October 7th! Each forum/board will be upgraded; we will be working on 2 to 3 forums per day. Please be aware that you may experience problems accessing the boards during this time. When a forum completes its upgrade, all the previous posts will be archived and accessible through the archive link by 15th October, 2009. We are excited about the upgrade and, as soon as each board is complete, we want to hear your feedback and i ...

I heard some of these right-wing Middle Easterners are aflame over Masonic-Jewish conspiracies, which made my hair stand on end. What happens if the crazed Western and Middle Eastern wingnuts realize how much they have in common and start destroying together? Once upon a time, the influence of family and neighbors, the local community in geneal, provided some balance and control, but these days they can band together across vast distances. ...

I saw part of a post the other day where someone said there were posters here who are not transcriptionists. How many are there? Guess I just assumed that everyone who frequented here was an MT. I am just curious why you are hanging around a political forum that is part of a transcriptionist forum. Obviously, you are allowed to post here, but just find it odd you would want to hang around with us. LOL. It must be boring here with so many other political forums to post on. ...

Now it seems to have become a site for rabid conservatives to stoke each others' fires and ignore what's really going on in the country. It's not fun visiting the board anymore. Ta. ...

During 2016, I will: * Post no personal insults. * Post no insults related to political parties in general, which is the same thing as a personal insult to everyone who belongs to that party. * Use no demeaning terms to refer to political parties or their members (e.g. "teabaggers", "commies", etc.) * Investigate every issue BEFORE I POST, thoroughly and objectively. * Critically assess the veracity and objectivity of my sources of information. * Will no ...

If someone posted this "want a whomp round your head? I'll be glad to deliver one to you courtesy of yours truly." Would you consider that a threat even though they are supposedly on the other side of the country? While there have no other physical violence threats there have been several nasty posts made directed toward my husband because he has the "absolute gall" to disagree with this person. No threats made by my husband, nothing nasty either. ...

Thank you for your service in honoring and protecting America and her people. Happy Veterans Day and may God bless you always. ...

Shouldn't we be looking at the Progressives more closely? http://biggovernment.com/amarcus/2010/06/15/the-progressive-jihad-against-israel/ ...

A new report tries to stifle Democrats' confidence that demographics guarantee the party's electoral success. But it's not totally persuasive. [Maybe not, but I've known a lot of minority conservatives over the years who are not comfortable with the Democratic party, even if they're forced to vote Democratic to protect themselves now, and I expect them to force change at some point. The only thing certain about the future is that it will be different and it wi ...

The level of political discourse on this forum is petty and childish far more than informative or objective. Maybe one day we'll all learn to break free from our political masters, stop regurgitating the nonsense that they feed us - and (dare I hope?) discover that no party is worthy of blind devotion or has all the right (or wrong) answers. This nation is at a point in its history when we need citizens who know when something is proven and when it isn't, and citizens who cherish pat ...

This link is to a personal blog, The PCTC Blog, one with a solid left bias, and I haven't vetted the 200 items, but they do all come attached with a link to jump start the process and are in categories. (Thanks to PCTC for all the work.) Like the footprint of any presidency, many are about the business of running government itself, some will strongly affect a few, some have already changed the lives of many, some will turn out to be lying dead in the water, but some will undoubtedly ultima ...

A Progressive Deficit Reduction Plan Repeal all of the 2001 and 2003 Bush tax breaks for the top two percent. Repealing the 2001 and 2003 tax breaks for the top two percent would reduce the deficit by about $1 trillion over the next decade. After President Clinton increased taxes on the top two percent, the economy added over 22 million jobs. After President Bush reduced taxes for the rich, the economy lost over 600,000 private sector jobs. Create an emergency de ...

A couple weeks ago I came across an old article about Journolist which I found striking. In particular, I was struck by the ways in which some of the debates taking place among left-leaning journalists back in 2008 still seem to encompass the ways the left-wing media operates today.... For those who don’t remember it, Journolist was just a listserv created by Ezra Klein. The list was invitation only and was mostly made up of progressive journalists. In theory, the list was a kind of digital ...

and throwing their hats into the ring for the upcoming elections next year, I decided to sift through the archives of this board, going back to 2008 election and up to Obama's inauguration. It was interesting to read all the very heated posts on both sides of the party lines. In January of 2009, the last thing I posted on the subject of Obama was: "Time will reveal King Obama's inexperience and shortcomings." It made me wonder, where are all those passionate Obama support ...

The recent hack of George Soros’ “charitable” giving revealed nothing new. The man who told journalist Steve Kroft in a televised interview that roaming the streets of Budapest with his faux godfather to confiscate the property of his fellow Jews for the Nazis was the most exhilarating time of his life has long had a problem with both his Jewish roots and the creation of a Jewish state. Most revealing in the interview was Soros’ comment that he felt no guilt about what he had done dur ...

So....a friend is for our US health care reform (already retired and on Medicare) because he had no trouble going to Canada to get laser surgery on his eyes so he wouldn't have to wear glasses and states there is nothing wrong with the Canadian system....but, and I'm asking a serious question here, how long do people really wait for emergent surgery if they belong to the Canadian system versus the American system as we have it now? How did Canada get their health care system up and ru ...

From The Economist: "The Tax Policy Center has completed an analysis of the distributional effects of Mitt Romney's tax plan, and as might be expected it's quite good for you if you're raking in the big bucks, and not particularly helpful if you're not." "So, again, while it's true that Mr Romney's tax plans represent a large net transfer from the poor to the rich if you start from the baseline of current tax law, they're actually pretty progressive if yo ...

Four of the five most most liberal candidates in contested Senate races won on Tuesday (only Arizona Democrat Richard Carmona fell short), according to ideological ratings compiled by University of Chicago political scientist Boris Shor. Per Shor's rankings, Connecticut Rep. Chris Murphy was the most liberal candidate in any contested race to win a Senate seat—more liberal than the progressive icon Elizabeth Warren, even. And Murphy replaced a centrist I ...

If a conservative doesn’t like a news organization or a talk show host, he goes on multiple chat boards and blogs and does everything he can to discredit them. Liberals just don't invite them in. If a conservative decides he needs health care coverage, it is after he has taken advantage of the system by not carrying it; making payments to healthcare providers who are not in the business of lending money, and sometimes he has filed bankruptcy. A liberal recognizes that eve ...
