Bachmann signs The Family Lead pledge

[Sallow]

And whose problem is that, yours or theirs? "Back in the day", being referred to as ____ (fill in the blank) was "bad". Broad statements...

It's not my problem at all. Like I said..I tolerate it. I don't think anyone has the right to tell anyone else who they can spend their lives with. But that doesn't mean I have to buy into the life style either. It ain't my thing. Simple as that.

 

[Si modo]

I didn't use those pejoratives, you did. I stated that the fabulous Marcus Bachmann is gay. It was a statement and there was no connotation attached to it at all. I don't believe being gay is a bad thing (the Bachmanns do). Where is the "lie" or "snake oil" in that?

You are the one that started throwing "dyke" around as a pejorative. That's pretty hateful and bitter of you don't you think?

And, you still think people are buying your snake oil?



What, you didn't suggest that I call you a dyke again? The fact that you've already done that brings your sincerity into question as well as the little integrity you might have had.

Huh...you seem awfully susceptible to suggestion. Drink Kool aid do ya?

I didn't actually suggest you go back to using it, just questioned why you stopped suddenly.

....

Which is a suggestion, moron.

But, as we can see you haven't much education, so I can understand how you would be ignorant of such things.

.... I thought maybe it was because you getting upset about my saying Marcus was gay (which you took to be insulting) and getting indignant because your brother is gay was terribly ironic in light of you using a derogatory term for lesbian.

Guess not. Oh well...

Yes, you are stupid. I'll repeat myself: I'm not upset at much of anything here at USMB, except when I am interested in a story and for the life of them, there are posters (and you are the quintessential example along with doggie) who cannot for the life of them post anything accurate (or subjective).

I like accuracy. Folks like you (and doggie) go into a meltdown when called out on inaccuracies and blatant lies.

Too bad for you that I also post here.

He can't...the first "vow" is fidelity to your spouse. He's too patriotic to be faithful to just one (or two) wives.

I always like how Democrats can constantly forgive their own screw ups simply because they meant well cannot forgive a Republican for something that happened decades ago. Forgiveness isn't meaningful when you only do it when it's self serving and easy.

What's the statue of limitations on leaving your wife while she's being treated for cancer? How about leaving your second wife when she's diagnosed with multiple sclerosis? (Which, by the way was not decades ago...)

And who does Newtie say is responsible? Why, his patriotic penis of course.

And yet in true form I see you attacking Newt for this and not John Edwards. I don't defend either, I was pointing out the liberal double standard.

Sounds fair...as far as "lifestyles" go...mine's as a mother and spouse mostly, what's yours?

I don't know, ask John Edwards.
sheesh, nasty nasty nasty

Could't agree more. Edwards is a ******* POS...he's not running for president is he? (and certainly not in the "family values" party)

And yet for some reason I only see you actually caring enough to bring up the Republicans...

There is no double standard. If someone had asked "I wonder if John Edwards will sign this pledge?" (which, of course he wouldn't whereas Newtie might consider it) I would have responded exactly the same.

Which one of these men is running for President, Newt Gingrich or John Edwards? Which candidate has run on "Family Values" as a mainstay of his candidacy, Gingrich or Edwards?

 

[kaz]

Which one of these men is running for President, Newt Gingrich or John Edwards?

Technically Newt, though he's not very serious.

Which candidate has run on "Family Values" as a mainstay of his candidacy, Gingrich or Edwards?

Neither. Newt ran on government reform and small government. I never saw him run on family values.

Why are Republicans so eager to make pledges to special interest lobbies?

Should they limit themselves to the Teamster's Union and the NAACP?

I haven't seen those signed pledges.

No, I doubt you will.

That's because they are signed in backrooms...in blood.

I'm having a great morning, thank you.

You need to read the actual personal pledge and not someone's interpretation of it.

you mean like relying on this opinion?

OPINION: Relax. Bachmann Didn't Pledge To Ban Pornography* - News - Talk Radio News Service: News, Politics, Media

bachmann is a nutbar. and again, if it were a leftie taking a "personal pledge" to do away with guns, you'd be in meltdown.

but glad you were having a good morning.

Happily the pledge says nothing about Octopi:

In actuality, the pledge asks candidates to offer “humane protection of women and the innocent fruit of conjugal intimacy- our next generation of American children- from human trafficking, sexual slavery, seduction into promiscuity, and all forms of pornography and prostitution, infanticide, abortion and other types of coercion or stolen innocence.”

When reached for comment, Bob Vander Plaats, the organization’s president, appeared surprised that the language has been interpreted as a call to outlaw adult entertainment.

OK well it definitely talked about protecting women from porn so I wonder what exactly it meant then.

Werewolf.

I eat other animals.

But my girlfriend's safe.

For now.

Si Modo is the same type of trash as Allie Baba. When they act tough, I have to laugh. Such sillies.

 

[Quantum Windbag]

I thought Conservatives wanted Government out of our lives? I guess it's only when it's shit they disagree with that they want government out of our lives.... like Health Care, Social Security, Welfare, Unemployment, etc.....

When it comes to Gays, abortion, and now porn... Stuff that IS REALLY NONE OF YOUR ******* BUSINESS??? That's where they want government to throw down the gauntlet.... You dumb ***** are being exposed for the fascists you are... Let's repeal the Civil Rights Amendment!!! Blacks were better off back then!!! No... they were just out of your line of sight... and that's all you really care about, isn't it?

But... will you guys even look at your own agenda in a critical manner? Hell, I KNOW what the end game can be for liberalism... you guys don't seem to understand what theocracy and Right wing extremism breed.... take a look at the Middle East for a real good look at your end game.

And I thought progressives liked education.

Most of the people here are not arguing that the pledge is a good idea, or even that the government should ban anything. They are just pointing out the absurdity of you going crazy over it. My guess is you said pretty much the same thing when people went crazy of Obama's comment about people clinging to guns and religion.

 

[JakeStarkey]

No comparison, QWB, between the two: Obama noting that some folks turn to God and guns in their hard times emotionally and repealing amendments. This is not a comparison of kind but a difference of type, and the pledge is awful. Most Americans know that and will vote accordingly.

 

[NYcarbineer]

we would like to have you pledge personal fidelity to your own spouse and a respect for the marital bonds of others,” Vander Plaats told reporters at a news conference on the steps of the Iowa Statehouse.

Didn't she already pledge fidelity to her spouse...

when she GOT married?

...and a respect for the marital bonds of others?????????????????????

Oh my. I think somebody forgot that same sex marriage is a LEGAL MARITAL BOND in Iowa.

lololololol

 

[bodecea]

I don't know, ask John Edwards.
sheesh, nasty nasty nasty

Could't agree more. Edwards is a ******* POS...he's not running for president is he? (and certainly not in the "family values" party)

And yet for some reason I only see you actually caring enough to bring up the Republicans...

Do you bring up Republicans? Or only go on the defensive?

 

[Trajan]

No, he is not. Period.

Yes he is. He has more business experience than anyone in the race.
And that is what this country needs as the current occupier of the White House, although a nice guy, has not one clue as to how to manage money or the business of the country.

Who cares about "business" experience. The government is not a business. I think business leaders are valuable when they are giving advice..not running the show.

And conservative leaders punted the whole business model idea when they held up the notion that all revenue increases must be offset by tax cuts.

That's the most ridiculous and absurd thing I ever heard.

Even more so given the size of the debt.

whoa whoa whoa...didn't you make a case that government drives bus.?
