    You admitted you are a Democrat, so you have voted for big government, runaway deficits, irresponsible borrowing, and a national debt exceeding $16 trillion. Don't put on this pretence that you are some sort of moderate or that you have any responsibility at all, because you and your fellow Democrats are destroying this country and you will not stop until the dollar is worthless and we're all growing vegetables in our yards just to survive.

    My children are not delinquents.

    Let me ask you a question.

    How many abortions have you paid for?

    Because I'm guessing, with your attitude, no child of yours is ever going to see the light of day.

    No Ron Paul for me. If it were up to that guy I probably wouldn't have a job right now. Ron Paul would be one of those who absolutely had to have a Secretary of Defense who held equal power to him in the Office. He would be good for the nation domestically, but I would NEVER trust him to make foreign policy decisions.

    You have nothing to say, and yet you say it anyway.

    Blackrook, I have gone to school, made good grades, have a useful job, pay my taxes, have a clean criminal record, don't abuse illegal substances, and don't have any children that I can't afford. I am more responsible than the majority of Americans.

    Blackrook what I said earlier about not caring about you wasn't true. I do care about you. I care about you and people like you. Me growing up in a loving stable home with both parents was pure luck for me. Just because you didn't have that doesn't mean you should be doomed to have a different life. I pay taxes because I realize I am lucky. I have no problem paying for grants with my taxes for people that are less fortunate than me. Part of it is because I genuinely believe providing educational and career opportunities for people that have had a hard life makes society better for all of us and some of it is just plain old fashion bleeding heart sympathy.

    Despite the rude and crazy things you said to me I still feel there should have been more government programs available for people like you when you were a teenager. It's just the right thing to do.

    No one said they were.

    None. I prefer preemptive strikes (condoms, OCP, IUD).

    I'm surprised this wasn't done by UPS, since they are union and big liberal democrat supporters.

    FedEx exploits its workers by contracting them under their ground unit, so they don't have to provide them with health care or pay them good wages as independent contractors.

    So a capitalist republican company doing commercials that promote Liberal white beta males is disturbing, maybe they want to incite this kind of hate by their supporters in a indirect way who knows. These fat cats profit by spending millions on studies for ad campaigns.

    Who is responsible for that ad showing a quadradoon demonstrating his cell phone to a fine looking White lady. She is waiting for
    her date, a French model. Fat White guy shows up. Why not show the negro in their typical situations?

    You've heard it here folks:

    Blackrook approves of murder as a solution to marital problems.

    You're right about the second part but wrong about the first part. The notion that women were ever oppressed at least in the United States is total fallacy. Unlike blacks who were legitimately treated like sub-humans, women were a protected class for most of this country's existence. Feminists bark about all of the things they couldn't do legally while completely ignoring the context. Ignoring the fact that they didn't have to do many of the miserable things men didn't have a choice about. Not to mention that things like voting were originally only reserved for land owners meaning that not all men could vote either. Context is important. And too many victim stories that we accept without question today are part of a silly politically correct narrative that takes things out of context and uses them to push a double standard toward a bogus sense of "equality" which is defined as nothing more than enjoying equal perks without being held accountable for equal responsibilities.

    Soldiers are trained to hurt people and break things. That type of behavior is desired on the battlefield but I wouldn't consider that behavior to be wholly descriptive of 'real men.'

    The land ownership requirement was eliminated 70 years before women got the right to vote. I would hardly call that equal.

    I have never liked portrayals of violence aimed at the genitals. I find it highly inappropriate (and it has been put in children's movies) and when it is in the context of a commercial I find it to be hostile to men as well.

    Don't bother Politics Junky. I can't read your posts anymore. I am sure you are insulting me personally instead of responding to my arguments, and my mistake was in lowering myself to your level. You are obviously incapable of intelligent debate.

    No I didn't miss the rest of what you said. I just pointed out one very easy to debunk statement you made. Your other statements are vague and broad. I'm not even sure what you are saying exactly. You seem to think domestic violence wasn't a problem back in the good ol' days. Or at least that it wasn't as bad as today.

    Lancelot riding up on a horse with shiny armor and treating all women like ladies is a Hollywood fantasy. The fact of the matter is behind closed doors women were beaten and raped and often had little recourse. Even today with all the feminism and forensic science out there the majority of rapes don't get reported.

    Actually, he is having a completely unrelated discussion with Unifier regarding the history of woman and equality.

    Domestic violence is worse today. Respect in general between the genders is much lower today than it was 50+ years ago.


    So is the notion that women were helpless victims who were beaten and oppressed and kept barefoot and pregnant against their will. It's a revisionist victimhood fantasy.



    Proving what exactly?

    You offer no evidence to support this assertion.

    So when men didn't even respect women enough to let them vote they were showing them more respect than they show them today?

    Now that shoes and contraception are more accessible to women fewer women are barefoot and pregnant. That would seem to indicate they have a preference for shoes and not having uterine prolapse at 30.

    Nor do you to support the opposite. Are we going to do this dance?



    See, this is the fallacy you keep pushing. "Men didn't even respect women enough to let them vote." By this argument, land owners didn't respect non-land owners enough to let them vote either. Was this the case too? It is not only culturally accepted but even celebrated to disrespect women today. Just look at hip hop culture - the most popular influence on present day youth. "Pimpin' hoes" is the thing to do. "Smack my (*)(*)(*)(*)(*) up." "I don't love you hoes, I'm out the door." And look at what passes for entertainment on television. We have Bill Maher calling high profile women "(*)(*)(*)(*)s" (rhymes with "runts") and "dumb (*)(*)(*)(*)(*)" (rhymes with "pots"). This is your idea of respect for women? And it works both ways. Women are extremely nasty toward men today too. Having been taught that "a woman needs a man like a fish needs a bicycle." There is no love between the genders as a whole anymore. Only animosity, hostility, and mutual usership. Honest respect is virtually zero.



    So you honestly think women were forced to live this way against their will prior to "accessibility to shoes and birth control?" Is this really your argument?
