He's a far left extremist who dreams of a socialist, redistributive paradise, where less is more, and the government is everything.<br /><br />He comes across as anti-American, and believes he is an enlightened thinker, like most leftists do. <br /><br />He comes here to, in his words, "cheese us off". Classy huh?<br /><br />However, I believe when he leaves here for the day, he finds himself to be dissatisfied, and keeps coming back for more.<br /><br />Ducky is just a diversion most of the time. This is a good group, which enjoys discussion, and debate. Sometimes very lively, depending on the issue at hand.<br /><br />PrisAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5516627478339613810.post-84073082598577279202010-06-03T17:49:09.003-07:002010-06-03T17:49:09.003-07:00Frogburger.

Ducky's hesistancy could be based on some internal canonicity disputes about whether or not prayer to St. Rita of Cascia, patron of "achieving the impossible," baseball, and land-based oil well drilling can be justifiably expanded to deep sea oil drilling without an infallible decree from Mr. Ratzinger.(((Thought Criminal)))https://www.blogger.com/profile/17311656184275255223noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5516627478339613810.post-77145599382954757292010-06-03T14:56:19.303-07:002010-06-03T14:56:19.303-07:00Good points, ALL :-)

Punishing Americans for the life we created for ourselves, that nasty pursuit of happiness.<br /><br />Take your happiness for instance. You wouldn't mind if we shut down all theaters and playhouses would you? <br /><br />After all, we don't NEED them, and since people need fuel to get to work, we can sacrifice getting to those places with "little extras" like entertainment houses. <br />In fact, we don't NEED the entertainment industry at all.

It's the typical "One woman burned herself on hot coffee so every cup must have a warning on it" kind of thinking..ONE person has a problem and the Left can't take it..There's the expression that we all know and most of us accept "shit(sorry) happens"...but for the left it must NEVER be allowed to happen. Utopia is the goal.</i><br /><br />Which brought to mind a thought I had that the lack of White House activity does seem odd in light of the fact that preservation of the global eco-system appears to be a big concern of theirs. <br /><br />"Utopia" is indeed a goal. Rebellious, God-despising humanity's been working for millenia to make a name for itself (ie Tower of Babel,world empires) and the socialist/leftist agenda is just the most recent manifestation.<br /><br />Seems as though the harder people work at creating a perfect society, the worse things get. <br /><br />HeatherCraig and Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11962442989291080899noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5516627478339613810.post-18813534433183797762010-06-03T14:05:16.375-07:002010-06-03T14:05:16.375-07:00Elmo, I find your statement rather stupid.
