To a measure I agree let me explain in context though.
Extreme right wing beliefs do range from small thinking
racism and other mental defects. Hitler is a prime and
wonderful example along with a whole host of others
going back to at least Oliver Cromwell.
Now look at the other side of the ledger Joe Stalin is a
wonderful of a left wing idiot ranging back to Mao and
the gang.
The problem is both left and right in extreme forms have
the idea they know the whole answer to everything and
their entitlement to pass on their enlightened view is a
cross they must bear no matter how much the rest suffer.
I don't think intelligence or the lack thereof is the domain
of any one side of the equation

Yes. I know but, as I said, that has nothing to do with silly social conservatives. They'd still be silly if I was ugly and slow and sensible.
There, I finished your sentence for you. You are welcome. =)

Read between the lines people, the Globe and Mail is simply stating that if you are voting for Harper, it not really your fault, it's because you are a bit dumber than than the other two-thirds of the population. Perhaps your offspring will do better after smoking a ****load of weed?

Silly thread I'm confused, the right and the left perspective appeals to me and I wonder if it isn't time for tripolar thinking to become an axis of the ordinary human day cuz we want to be suns rather than a planets eh.

Wut? Nuts. I am a whole universe unto myself. Planets and suns included. (please, no smartass comments about my mass and size. It would be too obvious so try something more clever if you must). =)

Well I was thinking of something practical like the number three instead of the number of the universe which dosn't fit the human head.
Now I've lost my train of thought, you interrupted me, it was I great idea, damn you.

you can have a lack of money with no money?
bull!
you have a lot of growing up to do?
bull!
make a freakin point bub:
and support it with a little more then the obvious conclusion one has to draw after reading your post:
you are the proof that the OP is in fact true

"ad hominim"
look it up dude
and then don't do it.
it will improve your non existant conswervetive debating skills immensely

ps i volunteer helping feed old vets and the homeless
so when it comes to "poverty"
put up or shut up

You don't have a clue, do you?

You will need to understand exactly what a dollar bill represents before you keep going on and making an abject fool of yourself... 'Til then, don't waste my time

PS - Learn how to spell, m'kay?

Yes, I have been.

Mom's basement, huh?

Sorry to burst your bubble; the survey is WRONG!
Right wing thinkers are thinking with their heads. They can foresee the pitfalls in granting 'right's to every tom, dick and harry.
Left wing thinkers think with their emotions, live with their heads in the clouds and are totally removed from reality.\
Sure, in an ideal world we would all live in Utopia, have everything our hearts desire provided for us and get to do whatever we please. But this is NOT an ideal world. Sometimes we have to made personal sacrifices to be fair to the rest of the population.
Get over it!
