My political profile

[petrus4]

So after seeing a thread devoted to people's political profiles, and political quiz scores on /b/ earlier today, after taking several of said tests myself, I decided to horrify undo and probably a few other people here, with an image containing the results.  Said results were very consistent, over five tests, although I'm only quoting three, here.  Apparently, my political colour is roughly that of blood.



I've always been Libertarian, but apparently that is softening somewhat, as I age; although I'm noticing that my level of sympathy towards the gay movement in particular, has been steadily declining recently, and I think my answers in that area, were really the only thing which pushed me towards authoritarianism, in the overall scores.  I'm apparently also a staunch believer in the Prime Directive, as well.  I will admit that I had no idea that I was that pacifistic, however.

*Interjection from mental voice with suspiciously Liverpudlian accent*

"Well, for Christ's sake, it's the only sane way to be, man."

"Shut up, you."

lol their questions on that test are prejudice towards the idea that there really is a conservative right. there's not. there's just variations of left. some closer to center than others.   once in a great while, you will find a person who doesn't agree with any form of social services, but they are rare, firstly because you can't have roads, bridges, public works, police, fire, garbage pickup, schools,etc without social services based taxes.

and no, i'm not horrified lol  silly orcy.

see i think the democrats are really not that big on the social services thing.  they just keep a frequent track record of the popular vote by ushering in more and more reasons to take people's labor and give seriously reduced versions of it, to the people their predecessors originally enslaved (which they then blame on republicans lol).   this is what their predecessors did to the black slaves.  they took their labor and enslaved them to the system.  they are currently doing it now, to the whole country.   just so's ya know.  it isn't just about social services or helping the poor anymore. it's about making us a bunch of slaves with no means of forging our own destinies.

they're trying to bankrupt the repubs so they can install full out communism, but the repubs keep finding new ways to make money, including not making it here anymore.  which has left many more of us, dependent on the charity of the government, a move the democrats benefit from by pointing to the repubs as responsible for our current financial problems.  which is only partially true to the extent of what other choices were available, such as losing what you and your ancestors worked for for the last 2 hundred years.

it's a giant chess game, wherein we were once pawns capable of becoming knights, bishops and rooks, and occassionally kings and queens (of our own little empires) and now we're not even on the chessboard and they toss us bread crumbs if we're the right race and gender.

next time you hear a white democrat talk about how the white man enslaved the black people, remember, it was the democratic party that was all for slavery.  most of the repubs were totally against it.   the democrats, though,  didn't want to give up their slaves. 

after the civil war, the repubs gave the black slaves, the lands of their democratic slave masters because the laws had changed and the slaves had actually earned that land by the sweat of their brow. but since the repubs were northerners, they couldn't enforce it for long, because local lawmakers in the south, would just create loopholes and take the land right back again.  it got pretty bad.   there was alot of trouble. 

but if you listen to the way democrats tell it,  it was all the fault of the republicans and still is.

[undo11]

p.s. the only way the democrats could do this to the black people was to not consider them fully human and write laws that suggested the same.   as long as they were characterized as less than human, they could legally keep them in bondage.  because the laws on the books regarding human rights and freedom, applied specifically to humans (should've been a no-brainer but so far, democratic leaders have a track record of being extremely racist, whether to blacks, whites or whatever.  republican party officials have done some doozies too but not to the black people).    so the repubs changed it so that the black people were defined as human, and therefore capable of enjoying all the same liberties and protections as any one else.  but they had to federally enforce it because the democrats would keep changing things around.   that meant they were legally justified in their claims on the former slave owners lands because they had been literally ripped off of all their labor. 

you ain't a slave owner are ya?

And yet... we haz Obama

oh, and one more thing:

communists and socialists are not pacifists.  they just use idealistic positions regarding war, to attract the youth.   they take over and reshape nations by first convincing the next generation to rise up and revolt, in order to have peace.  sadly, once they take over, people soon realize, war is not one of things they have outlawed lol   "peace peace yet there is no peace."   

so you may be a pacifist, but the people you're aligning yourself with are not.   it'd be pretty hard in fact, to find a country where the leaders were strictly pacifists at the moment.  its rather hard to survive politically and financially if you're not at least interested in national defense (within reason, of course).

lol

i swear, they are trying to convince everyone not to do anything to improve their circumstances, so you end up not having a future.  like discouraging people from having businesses and trying to improve their plight in life. turning everyone against each other.  this is not acceptable.  let's not just sit here and wait for the world to end!  we should all be working on the video game project!  it's a good idea! we could all benefit from it!  come on everybody. don't let them numb us into oblivion!  think positive. be creative.  erm.. yeah! 

it's such a big project, that almost every type of job is possible. 

(insert cheering section) woot?

[Littleenki]

WOOT is right, Undo, well done! No horrified glazed over look just facts and true history of the democrats who have manipulatd the peoplle for many, many years.

Just like everything else in our world that seems one way, but under the blamket is the opposite, the two party system is a perfetc example of such.

I have to remember Boss Hogg on the Dukes of Hazard when I think of democrats, and his cronies Rosco and Enos. Obama, Hillary, and Biden I think theyre called in the current day.

But, the republicans are definitely not Bo, Luke, and Daisy, tryin' to save the day from Evil Roscoe P Coltrane anmore, theyre just another version of the evil embodiement which world leaders have nearly always been.

America likes to melt its collective mind with television, and the two party system, and its crumb throwing prowess, shows us we are suckers for the worst form of reality TV...big government.

Snooki for President?

they never were.  the south is mostly democrat and has been since the beginning.  the democrats present nearly everything about republicans, exactly opposite of reality.  it's bizarre.  they try to make people think that the folks living in places like georgia, for example, are all idiots and republicans.  but what they don't tell ya, is that it's mostly black people and they have been brainwashed and bribed into shooting their selves in the collective foot by voting democrat over and over again.

the one thing i think repubs have going still (and it's on extremely thin ice), is that they still believe we can survive this IF, they can convince enough people that just rolling over and giving up the ability to forge your own destiny, should not be an acceptable option.  but as long as they are being circumvented at nearly every turn, by people who want to turn this into a nation of slaves, not much they can do about it. 

that's essentially what communism is anyway.  a bunch of slaves who don't have their own destiny. 

remember hollywood is primarily run, lock stock and barrel, by democrats.

So true about the democrats Undo..giving up on humanity to save their precious piece of the pie.
I once thought that democrats were great, because they appeared to help the downtrodden and demoralized, but once I graduated nursery school(LOL!) I saw how they were just another control effort to make everyone become a tool of the state.
A tool for filling their tax coffers so they could siphon it of to the secret accounts that every government entity has.

The dumbocrats take and tax and hide the money from who really needs it, just giving back enough to keep them from starving, but never giving enough to get the poor back on their feet.

I liken the democratic way to someone helping me out of a hole in the ice, and just when Im almost out, they let go, and go" gee lets try that again"

For hundreds of years now, theyve been dropping us back in the ice, and at least the repuds give us a chance to form an opinion and excercise it if we so desire.

As a somwhat successful business owner for decades now, I see the best years of my hard work as being during republican rule, although I know they have a dark agenda as well, but hey, if ya gotta pick the lesser of two evils, at least we can take a chance and vote in the US still.

Obama, I cant say anything bad or good about him as he has been an absolute zero. Done nothing, achieved nothing, yet promised everything. And the repuds have fought him every step of the way, keeping his hands tied until they can take the country back.

We need to redefine what a lame duck is: any democratic president which is serving over a republican congress and house...lame ass duck!



While the two a-holes in the schoolyard fight it out, the rest of the world watches while shaking their heads.

And us, the citizens, suffer.

[undo11]

same thing happens when it's a republican president serving over democratic congress

they are scared now because the repubs already have congress. if they get the presidency as well, oh boy. 
problem is, if there's a bunch o' those roman guys in there.  they are historically hard core fascist socialists, where a handful of people get everything, step down one rung, and these people get parts of that "everything"  based on good behavior. step down one rung, and these people are everyone else, who get what's left over, which usually isn't much.  there's no smooth gradually increase, based on your own effort, but rather, eh, if they feel like being nice.

Posted this on my blog..it applies here..

Welcome to another Election........Here we sit, on the schoolyard bench, watching the two bullies fight it out once again. Blood spatters and bones crunch as one bully inflicts blows upon the other. Grunts and groans ensue, and a big poof of dust kicks up, yet we sit here and watch them battle it out with no end in sight. All the while we are forgetting to go to class and better ourselves, and further our studies, while we observe the spectacle of two very sick and twisted individual entities flailing and desperately searching for ways to undermine the other. The end result is always one wins, then spends four years getting scoffed at by the loser in the hallways as they pass, waiting for the next fight to occur, all the while neglecting the very studies they should be accomplishing.Then, the melee starts anew, and we all line back up to watch it while disregarding the true needs of the entire school body. So America, will you continue to be voyeurs for the eltitist agenda, or will you finally step in and pull them apart and take back your schoolyard?
Cheers!

Well, for my part, I still believe that we in the USA still have the very best system of government. But.............it is a government of "we the people" (wtp), and wtp have allowed a number of things to dilute/deter our government from effectively governing.

We are supposed to have three branches of government, that by design, are given certain authorities and specific operational parameters. And each of these branches are in position to effectively ensure that each branch performs in accord with set forth authority, and in accord with the Constitution of the United States.

While people who are voted into government positions can have various and sundry imperfections, as long as wtp ensure that these branches honor the Constitution, and the Constitutional laws of the land, then, this country will be just fine.

But, wtp, have allowed this current administration (and others past as well) to move in directions that are in direct conflict our Constitution and with our laws. We have voted in a President whose past was positioned with the far left, and whose actions have demonstrated his socialistic intentions to totally remake this country. This president has even publicly stated that he was not going to comply with certain laws of the land, relative to immigration.

LE said, "We need to redefine what a lame duck is: any democratic president which is serving over a republican congress and house...lame ass duck"!

Well, that was not the case for Obama's first two years in office. He completely "owned" both the House and the Senate, and thus, there was no "check and balance" by the Administrative" branch over the Executive branch of government those first two years. That is one of the reasons why some things got passed that should never have.

Thank God that wtp quickly saw the now "naked plans" of this president, and started making changes, by voting out Democrats in the House during mid-term elections. And yes for the past two years, the House has been led by a majority of Republicans. That is the only thing that has kept this president from making even more drastic changes to our way of government.

All of this, and so much more, is why the coming November election is so important to we the American people. During these past nearly four years, this country has been purposely attacked from the inside, by people we voted in in 2008. They through out the "bait of change", and many voters took that "bait", and took it to the voting polls.

I believe that many in this country have awoken to the fact that  we are being taken down, piece by piece, by this socialistic president. The "awakening" became evident in the last mid-term elections, and, for the survival of this country as we know it and as we want it, this "awakening' must continue with the upcoming elections.

This is still a free country, where we can vote as we wish. We all need to get informed, and really know what to expect from each person we decide to vote for. 

And "getting informed" will never come from political attack ads, and nor will much real information come from the main Stream Media. But, if we try, we can find people and places with information, that we can have confidence in, to help us in our voting decisions.
