Who are the real MODERATES on this board...?

[BO-CEPHUS]

i also think i debated you on health care or guns a while back.. but i actually am not big on talking politics.

Yea you did, but you weren't much of a challenge. j/k

Yea, I can understand not wanting to talk much about politics. The same can also be said for religion. You can really find a lot out about people just by discussing these two topics. Really scares some people off.

well mostly i just don't like arguing and i know i don't agree with many of the people on this board on a lot of things... and i like them regardless and would rather stay on good terms rather than possibly ruining it with a debate.

2Thick, I just wanted to add that I did not translate it (I don't know if I made it clear or not.) Castillo was a brilliant poet - his other work is just as amazing.

Ryan,

I don't think your questions really are a fair measure of anything.


Abortion: should be legal. However, the government should make an effort to make women aware of other options. If you take the Supreme Court at its word that a fetus is "potentially a life", then that life could be the next Albert Einstein or FDR. So it is in our interests to present other choices to women. Let her choose, but give her choices.


Gays: Can be together all they want. Gay marriage? Sure. I couldn;t care less. Benefits for same sex life partners. OK. But make it just as paperwork intensive as it is for hetero couples to get benfits: marriage certificates etc. Treat them as married. In the event of divorce, go through the courts, etc.


Drugs: legalize ASAP.


Environment: Measures should be taken to preserve. Known damaging substances should be banned. However, man has been recording weather and atmosphere conditions for the last 200 years or so. Our frame of reference is insufficient.

10,000 years ago it was really cold. 4 billion years ago it was really really hot. We must use the knwodege we HAVE, and not speculate on this.


Morality: This is for parents to teach their children, not for the government to dictate. People love to blame things on moral decline. It is a nice way to not accept any blame yourself.


Social Security: Needs to be re-thought. While it is a nice idea, it really needs a hard-core analysis. If I continue to pay the amount I pay, and retire at 65, I would have to live several hundred years to "get my share".

I do not think the government can do better with my money than I can. How about making it optional?

I hate to say it but I gotta agree with the Skywalker...

Wow Matt..in a non-asskissing kind of way, I agree with that one hundred percent.

2Thick,

Hate to say it huh? I love to hear it.


Frackal,

How would that sound in an ass-kissing way?



These things are easy. People make it hard.
