Hey, dirt boy what war did you fight in ? between me and my brother let's see three is that enough for you. what have you done dirt boy??????????????????
The list you made about liberals could also be made about republicans...just remember that. And I don't know how willgator is 'resorting' to personal attacks, when your little liberal list was one personal attack after another...maybe they were general and not directed to anyone specific person, but they were still attacks. There really is nothing worse than a hypocrite.
WHAT TRUTH THAT RUSH LIMBAUGH BULL CRAP ISLAND BOY PUT UP THERE. What about the english screaming georgy boy is giving all his crony friends oil contracts without an afterthought . Why are we not in north korea let me see no oil wells huh!!!!! use your head that's what it's there for.
And yes I did fight for my country as a damn liberal I guess you have a problem with that tooo. I guess I fought for your right to say whatever you want no matter how misguided. But i'm sure your republican party will take those rights away soon enough under the guise of national security.............
Re: Re: The meaning of Liberal... LIBERAL SPEAKS=100% TRUTH REPUBLICANS SPEAK=100% LIE IS THE ABOVE YOUR OPINION???
Re: Re: The meaning of Liberal... where is the "attack"? why do those of you with this mindset always have to say some one is attacking you when all they are doing is making an observation. Is there anything in that listing that is not true?
First and foremost, you are quoting a source and said source does not have this definition. Then you call it the truth. Hardly. It is a joke based on stereotype and stereotype alone. It is offensive, especially to someone, a liberal, who was happy to be alive 10 blocks from WTC on 9/11. I can't tell you how offensive the Bin Laden part is. Joke indeed. I can go point by point. If you want me to show you how each and every point is untrue, I can. However, I don't think you want me to. I think you want me to fight back by coming up with conservative jokes, an attack or two, and then say, "See? See? You're so hypocritical. I'm just making an observation." So if you're going to quote a source, quote it correctly. And before you go off on some of the definitions, please keep them within context. Main Entry: 1lib·er·al Pronunciation: 'li-b(&-)r&l Function: adjective Etymology: Middle English, from Middle French, from Latin liberalis suitable for a freeman, generous, from liber free; perhaps akin to Old English lEodan to grow, Greek eleutheros free Date: 14th century 1 a : of, relating to, or based on the liberal arts <liberal education> b archaic : of or befitting a man of free birth 2 a : marked by generosity : OPENHANDED <a liberal giver> b : given or provided in a generous and openhanded way <a liberal meal> c : AMPLE, FULL 3 obsolete : lacking moral restraint : LICENTIOUS 4 : not literal or strict : LOOSE <a liberal translation> 5 : BROAD-MINDED; especially : not bound by authoritarianism, orthodoxy, or traditional forms 6 a : of, favoring, or based upon the principles of liberalism b capitalized : of or constituting a political party advocating or associated with the principles of political liberalism; especially : of or constituting a political party in the United Kingdom associated with ideals of individual especially economic freedom, greater individual participation in government, and constitutional, political, and administrative reforms designed to secure these objectives Um, every bit of it. However, you have the right to say those things. If you want to appear as an insensitive, stereotypical tool, fine by me! I won't hold it against all conservatives, however, which seems to be what you're doing by taking the actions of a few and assigning them to all within that group.
I think it was the phrase "their head up their aXX" that let willgator feel free to spew his venom all over this board. However, the venom existed within willgator before he read the phrase.
