Isn't it ironic...
Isn't it ironic that:
1) Super Bowl Champion Baltimore Raven's Ray Lewis - suspect in a murder trial in 2000 - and father of six children with four different women - declares himself to be a "Christian? thanks the Lord for the opportunity to play in the Super Bowl victory.? Yet, was Lewis ever put under the scrutiny that Tim Tebow - also a Christian, (lacking the notorious background of Lewis) suffered at the hands of the media and the usual anti-religious crowd? Was Lewis made fun of the way Tebow was? No. Why not? Could there be a racist element at play here?
2) Obama and his Administration, famous for going after "waterboarding" as some sort of horrific torture device which needed to be done away with to protect the "rights" of terrorists, now want to institute a plan in which Americans who may or may not be terrorists can be killed by drones. OK. I get it. It's NOT OK to use "enhanced interrogation techniques" against known terrorists, but it IS OK just to kill people - including Americans - who may or may not be terrorists?
3) No one can criticize First Queen Michelle Obama's large derrière, but it is OK for Ms. Obama to dictate to school cafeterias across the country what they can and cannot serve to students in order for the students to "be healthy."
4) So Beyonce (BFF of Obama) has to lip-synch the national anthem at her buddies recent coronation, yet she can belt out her own tunes at the Super Bowl halftime show??? What's up with that? Oh, I do suppose that like Obama, she probably could have cared less about The Star-Spangled Banner and what it means, when her own hits are much more important to the uninformed masses...
5) The Obama administration that is so busy right now clamping down on the 2nd Amendment rights of law-abiding citizens had no problem giving guns to members of Mexican drug cartels with reckless abandon. The guns passed along to criminals during Obama's "Fast and Furious" operation have been used to kill innocent people who got in the way of the Mexican drug wars AND an American ATF agent. Strange how little is reported anymore about the "Fast and Furious" operation, yet we heard on a daily basis how the rights of the law-abiding American citizens must be curtailed when it comes to guns...
6) The Democrats are famous for trying to legislate and create laws pertaining to every little aspect of people's daily lives, yet when it comes to enforcing such laws and punishing criminals in the process, what happens? Well, Dems are pretty soft on crime to begin with, and do tend to side with the criminals in many cases rather than the victims. So what good are all the laws on this and that anyhow if they are not enforced?
And last but not least - isn't it ironic:
How "affordable" health care for all (aka: Obamacare) is going to be so darn unaffordable?!?!?!

"Any system that penalizes success and accomplishment is wrong. Any system that discourages work, discourages productivity, discourages economic progress, is wrong. If, on the other hand, you reduce tax rates and allow people to spend or save more of what they earn, they'll be more industrious; they'll have more incentive to work hard, and money they earn will add fuel to the great economic machine that energizes our national progress. The result: more prosperity for all -- and more revenue for government. A few economists call this principle supply-side economics. I just call it common sense." --Ronald Reagan
Be awfully nice if we had a President and a Senate who could understand these simple economic and job growing ideas.

The guy that runs RightWingNews.com?
Oh boy, you can quote an ideologue. Good for you!
How about one of those gems from Joseph Farah, next?

Yes. As the tea party sabotaged any chance for Republican victory over Obama, Karl Rove is trying to fix that to save the GOP: http://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/internal-gop-clash-pits-tea-party-conservatives-against-karl-rove/2013/02/11/10e9d512-7141-11e2-8b8d-e0b59a1b8e2a_story.html.
Or is Karl just another one of your RINO's?????

Read up on the facts and explain why this is an abuse:
http://www.thefreelibrary.com/Boston+Man+Sentenced+For+Running+An+Illegal+Money+Transmitting...-a089395977
Mohamed KNEW he was dealing with an illegal operation and continued to launder money to the UAE to the tune of over $3million. The ONLY thing the Patriot Act enabled that did not exist before was to disallow ingnorance of the law as an excuse for illegal money laundering operations.
The guy got a meager 18 months in jail for funneling millions of dollars thru an entity he knew was operating illegally. How is punishing a criminal an infringement on anyone's "rights"? Or - are you of the belief that if you do not know what the law is, you should be able to break it?
I figured that would be the best you could come up with.

Hey there Rumplestiltskin, that was a week ago. Hemmer had them dismissed in 12 hours.
What did it take this long for you to find an article that countered one of the examples I posted. I have moved on already.
Thanks for the laugh.
WFB resident - Feb 12, 2013 2:27 PM
back and discuss the points not just dismiss what you are not able to discuss . By the
way what is with Rumpelstilskin that PDLS's like to bring up ? Not only that but it is
one of those common comments ! Next you will say something about a screech
monkey right ex ? lol...

3.5 Days = 1/2 a week?
But, thank you for pointing out that your positions have expiration dates. I have always known that given time, liberals see the light.

“3.5 Days = 1/2 a week?”
Oh, excuse me I meant to say last week. I posted my reply to your question on the 8th it is now the 12th.
3.5 days...I kind of figured your math skills were lacking.
“But, thank you for pointing out that your positions have expiration dates. I have always known that given time, liberals see the light.”
Just gotta love the conservative taunts; they are truly masters at the art.
Why should I bother beating a dead horse?
Besides, I was not here to argue the nuances of the Patriot Act or Voter ID. I made my point that the passage of both is an infringement on civil rights. The arguments as to why each might or might not be necessary are irrelevant. Regardless of how you cut it the bottom line is that it is a sacrifice of civil liberties (no matter how slight it might be) for security.
I made my point and see no need to defend my views any further in Hemmer’s blog. They did not expire as you say. I just don’t see the point in further beating my head against the wall.
I have nothing futher to say.
Go ahead Mucho I'll give you the last word.
ExToDResident - Feb 12, 2013 7:10 PM
What I meant to say is that I have nothing further to say about the Patriot Act or Voter ID.
I simply have better things to do.
It is NOT; I repeat IT IS NOT; a statement of departure from these blogs.

Feb 8th at 9 PM - Feb 12th 11AM = 3 days 14 hours = pretty darn close to 3.5 days. Your supposed claim that the Patriot Act infringes upon Civil Rights has been diminished to your inability to tell time. I see why you are pleading for a different topic....
