Why don't you just go back and took at the same thread from last week, or the week before?

Not surprised in the least:

Because I wanted a fresh new thread that wasn't all cluttered up.

OP, I'm curious as to how you answered the following questions...

1. People with a criminal history should not be able to vote.
2. It does not make sense to understand the motivations of terrorists because they are self-evidently evil.
3. It is wrong to question a leader in wartime.
4. Tighter regulation would have prevented the collapse of the lending industry.
5. The military budget should be scaled back.
6. When one group is slaughtering another group somewhere in the world, we have a responsibility to intervene.
7. When corporate interests become too powerful, the state should take action to ensure the public interest is served.
8. A person's morality is of the most personal nature; therefore government should have no involvement in moral questions or promote moral behaviors.

Other's, feel free to answer as well.

"took at the same thread." I don't know what that is supposed to mean. I don't believe there was a thread on this last week or the week before.

Or a Klingon Libertarian.

That scene had a powerful statement though:

This is how liberty dies - with thunderous applause.

It is so true - the people kill the very thing that feeds them out of fear and ignorance.

So I hit a T instead of an L. You can't figure that out? I never claimed to be a secretary.

Squirt a little FDS on the old ones, and they will be just fine.

OP, I'm curious as to how you answered the following questions...

Other's, feel free to answer as well.

1. People with a criminal history should not be able to vote. Disagree.
2. It does not make sense to understand the motivations of terrorists because they are self-evidently evil. Disagree (even though they ARE pretty evil, it is still good to know their motivations).
3. It is wrong to question a leader in wartime. Disagree.
4. Tighter regulation would have prevented the collapse of the lending industry. Disagree (there was already supposedly "regulations" when this occurred - come to find out the securities and exchange departments were completely incompetent (as are many government "agencies"). This depends on a lot of different factors.
5. The military budget should be scaled back. Disagree.
6. When one group is slaughtering another group somewhere in the world, we have a responsibility to intervene. Disagree (we need to STOP getting involved in everyone else's beefs!)
7. When corporate interests become too powerful, the state should take action to ensure the public interest is served. Agree (we do break up monopolies).
8. A person's morality is of the most personal nature; therefore government should have no involvement in moral questions or promote moral behaviors. Agree, so long as their crap doesn't affect me in ANY way whatsoever.
