"Enviro-whack nazsi’s blow ….. period. They are selfish freaks." -- Bap33

How are Environmentalists "selfish"?! Seems to me that people who work to keep us (the human race) from fucking up our planet beyond all life-carrying capacity are actually quite self-LESS instead of selfish. The selfish people are those particular breed of fat-cat Capitalists who strive to enrich themselves at the expense of the planet and other people.

And by the way, I write the above as a self-professed Capitalist who majored in Economics and thinks our system is pretty darn good. But you need checks and balances on it, or the system will go out of control and destroy everything in its path. Think about it: the only thing that stops negative externalities created by business is Government regulation. No powerplant has any vested interest in spending huge amounts of money to install chimney scrubbers to reduce emissions. Environmentalists are the kind of people who lobby for rules to stop this so they're kids and friends don't have to die of cancer while investors reap profits. This is self-preservation, not selfishness.

Man--the technical issues are killing me! my chance to expound on the evils of liberalism dashed! We are going to need a "Deo" thread, as I currently have 28 hours worth of rants archived. The voices must be heard! They are starting to get angry.

Patrick.....Please....fix......bugs......must........post........rants..................

Great bumper sticker that I saw on a pick-up truck:

"Piss off a liberal: work hard, take your family to church, and be happy"

Budha said:

Everything contains the seed of its own destruction at the time of its creation.

What will KILL the liberal/progressive agenda is that they score victories, they alienate the average Americans who have the power to crush them at the ballot box. Look what Republican hegemony has brought us recently: Samuel Alito. Sandra O'connor was the swing vote that allowed the lunacy to reach fever pitch. Alito will restore the constitution and the Republic. Rember: your founding fathers who wrote the constitution distrusted democracy and intended the constitution to prevent the rule of radical mobs. It was not meant to be an alternative legislature for wackos who couldn't accomplish their ends by democratic means. The 9th circuit can go to hell, fascists.

In particular those misogynist bitches called gender feminists are done. Soccer moms who go to PTA meetings are taking back America from these insane weirdos who demand sexual harassmant training for Kindergartners. Just how do those cunts manage to be misandrist and misogynist at the same time? Do they really think that women who sacrifice to stay at home and raise their children want to be told that they are just enforcing the "Male patriarchy".

And why do Ivy League Madrassas like Harvard, Dartmouth, and Wellsley get research grants and student loans? Isn't there a law against using Federal funds to support hate groups?

Why are my tax dollars funding tenured professors who commit academic fraud and ensure that only left wingers become tenured professors? If they want charity to support their totaltarian causes, they should get it from George Soros. It is not my job to fund the left wing of the Democratic party.

And Merry CHRISTMAS to all of you at the ACLU. God bless America, George Bush, the patriots fighting for Iraqi democracy, and George Bush(again).

Oh yeah, the puritans didn't leave England for religious freedom; they left because they were too radical in their heresy to tolerate anyone around them that didn't share their utopian/totalitarian beliefs. Some things never change.

Fuck New England, and their comrades in Berkely.

And another thing: When will Democrats learn that you can't fix every problem with a hammer and sicle. Didn't the collapse of the Berlin wall prove the point? It's sure done wonders for making housing affordable.

"libs are not having children"

How could they? They believe that gender is a social construct. It takes a more solid grasp of biology to enable successful procreation.

Harry Bidurchi:

Lighten up, dude. We're on a roll.

After all, was it over when the German's bombed Pearl Harbor?

Here's a thought: When the housing bubble pops, there's still gonna be a ton of liquidity.

Let's do an LBO of China! It couldn't cost more than $100 Trillion, give or take.

"most conservatives I’m acquainted with"

Doodler, I do not believe that you know any actual conservatives. Please provide references with contact details.

Thank you,

Are you a chick? Because I want to kiss you, and I don't like pudding or gay cowboy movies.

I am reading “The world is FLAT”.

Of course it's flat, otherwise all the water would run off into space.

Sunnyvale_Renter: I looked up paleoconservative. Not me.

I think I tested on a survey as a "free enterpriser". I don't consider myslef Republican, and I am too concerned with facts, reason, and history to EVER be a Democrat. I believe that ideology is cancer--idealism only brings suffering to the people that it claims to serve.

Also, I am aware enough of the stakes to support a strong international role for the US. I favor LEGAL immigration; the present system that we have does not benfit anyone.

Outcomes are the best criteria to judge policies. The trick is pragmatism tempered with moral rightness. I reject moral relativism. There is definitely right and wrong, good and evil, beauty and ugliness. But the quest for rightness can not come at the expense of others.

I believe that those of higher conscience have the duty to influence others by living their lives in such a way as to demonstrate a proper example for others to follow. Unlike Libs, I believe that coercion or violence is immoral. People can not be forced to accept the errors of their ways. They can be shown a path to doing better.

Strive for a better world, but expect people and institutions to fail. They will. Libs who believe in Utopian solutions will fail, and subject us all to misery in the process.

Those who believe that they can overcome the inherent fallen nature of man are guilty of Pride and Hubris. God will punish them. Their views and actions are not right because they fail to take responsiblility for all consequences of their actions. They merely lead the lemmings off the cliff, and then find someone else to blame. All we need is more repression, and then we will have Utopia!

If I had to sum up my political philosophy, I would quote the greatest American who ever lived, and our only true king:

"You have only always to do what is right. It will come easier through practice, and you will enjoy an approving conscience. That in the end will make it all worth it."

Robert E. Lee

I'm also reminded of a story from Lee's life after the war as President of present day Washington and Lee University. It was his duty to council a failing young student. The student said, "But General, you Failed". Lee replied, "Perhaps you will do better."

Can you imagine? Now that's a gentleman.

I have held priceless relics associated with Lee in my hands. It was a near religious experience. I recommend that you buy and read a biography of Lee if you want to understand the Liberal/conservative conflict in America and its historical roots.

The past is prologue. The age of gentlemen has not passed.

"BTW, I’m middle of the road, but I just think it’s ironic that DeoVindice and sunnyvale_renter are such “gloom and doomers”, which is exactly what liberals are constantly accused of."

I'm actually quite hopeful for the future. I even plan to have more children.

HarryRich, let me be the first to say FUCK YOU, FUCK YOUR FAT WIFE, FUCK YOUR SUV, AND FUCK YOUR YUPPIE FRIENDS.

My isn't he profane?

FUCK YOU

Did I mention, FUCK YOU?

HarryRich, AKA Feliz Chuck. Jeebus H. Christ, what the fuck is with these head up the ass, assholes? Any head up ass asshole care to comment? To fucking deny there is a housing bubble at this stage in the game is to imply the Pope isn't a Nazi. Ok, so you can split a hair because the Pope actually was only a member of the Hitler youth. Read the fucking blog title, HOUSING CRASH. Oh shit, I'm sorry, this would imply you actually knew how to read.

Mr UP, can I kindly borrow your bull-horn as i wish to drive around in my car yelling FUCK out the window to all the McDebtors*.

*Note: this does not imply in any manner, shape or form that Mr. UP or his affiliates are in any way McDebtors. Mr UP is clearly a man of means, and personally I would feel lucky to lick his toilets.

Good morning my Renter Friends!
America is terrific! Good to use other people’s money to make us rich!

Ever wonder why people come here to gloat? Is "owning" really something worth bragging about? Our house is a lot of work, especially this winter.
