One needs neither courage nor intellectual prowess to type up a personal attack. And though it might well be meant as in insult, it does not mean
that I take it as such.
I made a multi-part post over
here that, when read through in entirety, indicates the
type of people who actually
desire power & wealth for its own sake...And it seems to me that the kind of people you describe here, who
participate in such venomous attacks, would fall into a "sub-category" of what I described there as "midbrain people." These are people who use
their forebrain (higher thought, reason, compassion & altruism) only to give some kind of coherent "justification" to act upon their midbrain
impulses (primal id, animal instinct): This is, I believe, the origin of "Social Dawanism" & the concept behind "Rule by the Elite."
Yet your attitude towards such people indicates to me that you would squarely fall into the category of "forebrain people."

Come on. You say you don't favor any party yet sit there and write 2 pages about racist remarks and so on.
I don't see where this is a discussion about political parties, except to point out that
both parties are guilty of doing the same
thing...Quadrennial Exploitation through the use of mudslinging in any political campaign. Or haven't you noticed how political campaigning always
seems to degenerate into mutual "warfare," attacking each other's personality traits, disguising the real issues through "sound-bite retorts" &
never addressing the most important issues. Haven't you taken notice of how much that
both McCain & Obama have been "flip-flopping" on the
issues in their campaigns?
Both major parties seek the same ultimate goal once they get in Office...Totalitarian control of the American People. The two major parties just argue
over which way would be the best "path" to take to achieve that goal. Once a person recognizes this little key truth, the whole game of "political
diatribe" becomes obvious.
IMO, this is what SD is really talking about in this thread, the "game of political diatribe."

Well, all I have to say about this political tug of war between two candidates whom have NO RESEMBLANCE to the type of leaders that MADE this country
great in its infancy....
Don't blame me.....I'm voting for Ron Paul.
The first sentence is very true: Just selecting the names of our Founding Forefathers through
Brainy Quote &
looking over the lineage of documents that created the USA (
Magna Carta, the
Declaration of Independence, the
Articles of Confederation & the
US
Constitution) proves your point.
However, even as much as Ron Paul supports Constitutional Order of Law, I've learned that even his armor has chinks, as I point out in
this post. I realize that no one is "perfect" & it's possible that Dr. Paul's legislative
staff may have had something to do about letting this "armor chink" show up: The supporting links in my other post indicates that this may be the
problem.
I'll probably vote "No Confidence," until I can find out if it was Ron Paul himself or if it's a fault of his staff before I treat this as a
"final" decision, though. I at least want to find the truth of the matter before I act...Which is something that the people SD talks about
do not
do.
