"Would you be in favor of warrantless wiretaps..."
"...if the Democrats were in power?"

A really simple question that tends to stump even the most rabid Kool-Aiders.

1. HELL NO!
NOT if anyone were in power.

It goes against the principles this nation was founded under.

3. Nope, I also believe that if it took place under...
the Democrats that any involved should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.

4. But not for the reason you think.
They don't think the democrats will ever be allowed in power again, and they don't know how to break it to you. I'm serious.

11. sobering thought..
.. to realize that Dems are toast in so many places on so many levels.

It's as if they don't exist any more in Texas.

Yet... I think that a great majority of people are quite liberal.

It's the way the data, polls, and media are managed in order to
mindfuck people into thinking they're marginalized, stupid, evil,
or trivial... instead of being powerful, the majority, human,
compassionate, and real.

5. totally. I don't see the trick question here.
What difference does it make. The BOR and Consitution are our guiding lights. I don't care what the name of the party is.

This is the main problem we have with the neo cons. They want to destroy what has already been built and proven sucessful.

7. It's not a trick question.
But rather a very good response to those who say, "if you're not a terrorist, you have nothing to hide."

16. I'm nominating for PROOF we are committed to our nation and people,....
,...our freedom and liberty and right to be protected against tyranny, UNLIKE THE BUSHCO/NEOCON LOYALISTS WHO WOULD SELL OUT OUR PEOPLE, OUR CONSTITUTION, OUR FORMERLY NOBLE WAY OF LIFE, OUR NATION FOR THE NEXT GODDAMNED WIN OR DOLLAR (ya' sick freaks *grrrrr*).

EW!!! I get so worked up over this stuff!!! :grr: I just can NOT believe ANY American citizen would be sucking the butts of exploitative "representatives" who would turn on anyone sticking with basic American values/principles/ideals and cram it up their arse with a vengeance.

WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH THESE PEOPLE? :wtf:

10. Nope. If something is wrong, it's wrong. Doesn't matter who's
in power. Unfortunately this little bit of common sense seems to have escaped a lot of people's notice.

18. Yeah, I noticed that.
I thought "Kool-Aiders" was a giveaway. Maybe not.
