The blog admin has friends ???


“And yet our opponents tell us not to interfere with abortion. They tell us not to impose our morality on those who wish to allow or participate in the taking of the life of infants before birth. Yet no one calls it imposing morality to prohibit the taking of life after a child is born. We’re told about a woman’s right to control her own body. But doesn’t the unborn child have a higher right, and that is to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness?” – Ronald Reagan

Because just like every American, the admin has the right to say and carry petitions for any person they choose.  I'm sre you'd be ok with if they were carrying them for your party (unless it was someone running against you and/or your friends).

Everyone knows that you have to support a Dem or they will call you names, it's rule 5 in the book Rules for Radicals.

I never questioned anyone's right to speech or to carry petitions -- just questioned whether the person actually had any friends.  Personally, I think the more people that run -- the better our democracy is.

I don't think the admin or anyone else on here have tried to hide their views?  They are republicans and it's a political chat board. I am not a republican, but I post and read here because it is entertaining. My point is no one is forcing you to post here or read this. If your goal was to point out the obvious to new readers, then you have been successfull.

I think batmans point is this site is a sham.  Its not an independent voice it is a site to promote certain people.  If the admin admits that then no big deal.  But if admin pretends this is an unbiased site then they are perpetrating a fraud.

Green I've never seen the admin claim this was an independent site. The admin only posts extreme right wing propaganda and hasn't been shy about it. It is what it is.

And you only post extreme communistic anti-American propaganda, so what is new? You and your pals destroyed the town enough, no?

Sorry to inform you, but you don't live in a democracy.  If you did, we wouldn't have a House or Senate down in Washington D.C. that votes on each bill.  This is a representative Republic.  Each person has the chance to vote on the person who will go and vote on the bills for them.  I challenge you to go to any of the founding documents of the United States and find the word democracy.

The dems and the cops called this a republican site when many of the posts were anti Wal-Mart and pro Tommasone Administration during the police commission days.  

I would go as far as saying the majority of the members are not active in a party, and are little "c" conservative, and I believe there are some that are promoting a particular party interest.  You might say the MOST vocal are the INDEPENDENT NNTP supporter’s, who, as Gadfly has said on numerous occasions, isn't a party.  

So in my opinion, this board is represented from people of all political persuasions.  Just some are more active and vocal than others.  

The fact that we’re discussing this on a thread on this site should be evidence enough that the Admin is not some sort of Republican ideologue barring certain topics that are negative toward the Republican Party.  

God – How many anit-Amedore threads have been started on this forum?  


A newspaper is a device for making the ignorant more ignorant and the crazy crazier.
~ H.L. Mencken

Democracy is the theory that the common people know what they want, and deserve to get it good and hard.
~ H. L. Mencken

The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary.
~H. L. Mencken

We are all free to post our opinions, personally I believe that those with an agenda would perfer that some of the information posted here not be known and they would like to silence this site.
