8. You have to believe that the same teacher who can't teach 4th-graders how to read is somehow qualified to teach those same kids about sex.

11. You have to believe that Mel Gibson spent $25 million of his own money to make "The Passion of the Christ" for financial gain only.

1. You have to be against capital punishment, but support abortion on demand.
One doesn't have to be against anything, and I do support woman's right to choose.
2. You have to believe that businesses create oppression and governments create prosperity.
Could you name a Democrat who said that?
3. You have to believe that guns in the hands of law-abiding Americans are more of a threat than U.S. nuclear weapons technology in the hands of Chinese and North Korean communists.
I believe that nukes in the hands of Chinese and North Koreans are more dangerous than non-existant WMD in Iraq.
4. You have to believe that there was no art before Federal funding.
Just a stupid statement, requires no retort.
5. You have to believe that global temperatures are less affected by cyclical documented changes in the earth's climate and more affected by soccer moms driving SUV's.
If you choose to believe that man made pollution has no effect on the planet, you are just plain wrong.
6. You have to believe that gender roles are artificial but being homosexual is natural.
If you think that gays at some point of their actually decided that they want to be gay, you are just plain ignorent. Not liking a gay lifestyle will not make it go away. It is a fact of life, stop worrying about it. If you are straight, it won't affect you. You can't "fix-em so they go straight."
7. You have to believe that the AIDS virus is spread by a lack of federal funding.
Lack of funding simple slows finding a cure. It is spread by ignorance, a Republican trait.
8. You have to believe that the same teacher who can't teach 4th-graders how to read is somehow qualified to teach those same kids about sex.
No, but a good teacher may be qualified.
9. You have to believe that hunters don't care about nature, but loony activists who have never been outside of San Francisco do.
Judging by their diregard for nature, I believe republicans don't care about nature.
10. You have to believe that self-esteem is more important than actually doing something to earn it.
Stupid, stupid, oh yeah, did I mention, stupid.
11. You have to believe that Mel Gibson spent $25 million of his own money to make "The Passion of the Christ" for financial gain only.
Huhhhh?
12. You have to believe the NRA is bad because it supports certain parts of the Constitution, while the ACLU is good because it supports certain parts of the Constitution.
Both have their own agenda nad both use the constitution to support that agenda. Neither ia all right or all wrong.
13. You have to believe that taxes are too low, but ATM fees are too high.
These are related how?
14. You have to believe that Margaret Sanger and Gloria Steinem are more important to American history than Thomas Jefferson, Gen. Robert E. Lee, and Thomas Edison.
Why do I have do believe this? They all made significant contributions to society, especially Edison.
15. You have to believe that standardized tests are racist, but racial quotas and set-asides are not.
I believe the system ain't perfect.
16. You have to believe that Hillary Clinton is normal and a genuinely nice person.
I haven't met her. Have you?
17. You have to believe that the only reason socialism hasn't worked anywhere it's been tried is because the right people haven't been in charge.
I've been a successful capitalist almost all of my adult life, but socialism does work in many other countries. There are some elements of socialism that even capitalist need to accept.
18. You have to believe conservatives telling the truth belong in jail, but a liar and a sex offender belonged in the White House.
The problem is that few conservatives seem to actually tell the truth. If you are referring to Clinton, his offenses were small potatoes compared with Republican political scandels.
19. You have to believe that homosexual parades displaying drag, transvestites, and bestiality should be constitutionally protected, and manger scenes at Christmas should be illegal.
For better or worse, the constitution allows for many kinds of offensive displays including parades such as Nazi's, KKK, etc. Religion seems to get classified as a unique item which cannot be imposed on anyone. I personally don't give a damn.
20. You have to believe that illegal Democratic Party funding by the Chinese government is somehow in the best interest to the United States.
Seem no worse than the Bush's being in bed with the Saudi's and the Bin Ladins.
21. You have to believe that this message is a part of a vast, right wing conspiracy.
Not a right wing conspiracy, but right wing ignorance.
1. You have to be against capital punishment, but support abortion on demand.
One doesn't have to be against anything, and I do support woman's right to choose.
So do you support the death penalty?

It's not a quote, it's a belief...do you believe that?

You are correct, here now I put a question mark after it so it is a question, yes or no will do.

Sorry, the question was a matter of amount (greater than or less than), the key clue were the words LESS AFFECT.

Ding the bell, we agree on one, well half way, how about on gender roles?

No, but a good teacher may be qualified.
True, they might be.....are you willing to take that chance with your kids? I'm not with mine.

OK, progress, something you believe. What is the dis-regard? did you see it or read it. I tell you, when I'm in the woods hunting, I can't tell the Democrats from the Republicans. And when I come to a trashed camp site, I can usually tell where they were from (based on their garbage), but not their politics.

OK, sorry. I have to stop at this one. I think this is one of the major differences in out two parties. I think people should have to work and earn what they get, not have everything or anything for that matter, given to them. If you think that this is stupid then you are failing to grasp the major difference in the two parties IMHO. And you go into the snowbitch box of un-debatable due to lack of the ability to debate.
Don't even try to tell me you are claiming to have authored your "21 ways."
Even you are not stupid enough to think you could get away with that. Original though too hard?
Find some good questions, sure cut and paste them, I did, but when you start to cut and paste your arguments..........you really do become a TOOL of the party.
yep, that was me trying to hide the fact that I copied the questions
Do you read before you post? or do you just like to look stupid?
