When corporations do this you leftists cry foul. However, this time it's okay. By the way, the largest ever malfunctioning and corrupt corporation is the U.S. Government. I think what really matters is that your agenda has been exposed Assured. Do you believe in Collective Salvation? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have not researched ACORN - I don't care. But liberals are allowed to do community organizing, just as conservatives are. I wasn't trying to make the Tea Party wrong -- I just don't trust the Koch brothers and ALEC, and they had gotten involved with it. Similarly, so far this OWS is grass roots. Believe me, once it isn't, I will know. IMO it is premature to say that there will be a problem. Liberalism is not a problem. This is America, and people are allowed to disagree. I think that is the whole point of the protest - to show legislators and corporations that there are people who disagree with the supposed conservative tone that is supposed to be the norm in this country. And I'll tell you something -- it is having an effect. I read in yesterday's LA Times that after seeing the OWS protests, Bank of America is rethinking their proposed $5 monthly fee for making purchases with their debit cards. They are thinking up more ways for customers to avoid the fee, because they see that their customers are not stupid and won't stand for it. Also, not to pick on Bank of America, the other banks that were considering the fee are putting it on hold now. I'll tell you what -- people don't have to know WHY they are protesting for this to have an effect. The banks and the legislators know what they have been doing. And believe me, they know what to stop doing. Edited October 30, 2011 by Assured Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest shiloh357 Posted October 30, 2011 Share Posted October 30, 2011 I have not researched ACORN - I don't care. But liberals are allowed to do community organizing, just as conservatives are. This is not community organizing. I don't see where you think that OWS is a community organized event. It is a spontaneous event. Liberalism is not a problem. This is America, and people are allowed to disagree. Liberalism as it is expressed TODAY is a problem. There was a time when "liberalism" was a fiscal position. You were liberal based on your economic philosophy. Liberalism, today, has become much more poisonous and anti-American, pro-communism, pro-socialism. It is all about entitlements, and selfishness. It is about legislating immoral lifestyles as if they were normal. Liberalism is about tearing down what is best about America. Liberalism = "I hate America."

Governments spend these amounts without willgness to disclose their actions. Legislators have stopped looking into the peoples interest for sometime now, they have forgoten how and why the American revolution started. They might think we are deceived but the ones who have been touched by His Light cannot be deceived and afraid of them or their plottings.

There are Christian liberals who don't like gay marriage and abortion. You just didn't know that. Please look into Sojourners (they are liberals and they are Christians), before you say things like that.

Yeah I know the old school liberalism used to be morally conservative, but modern liberals are not. Liberalism has no redeeming qualities and you cannot be a good American or a good Christian and be a Liberal as liberalism is expressed today.

Liberals hate the rich. They envy them. They covet their possessions. They are angry that some have a lot while others have so little. They use the law to try to steal from the rich to give to the poor. Conservatives are opposed to theft, whether it is done legally or illegally. I don't think you realize how inconsistent this is with what everyone knows, which is that George Soros is a major liberal campaign contributor and he is one of the richest men in the world. Warren Buffet is another famous one. Countless people in the entertainment industry support liberal causes, including Steven Spielberg. I also come from a relatively affluent home.
