| mesoteto said: what does me being a white male have to do with this, or voting for that matter? I supposed if its about discrimination then sure, i am the only legal group left in the states you can discriminate aganist so we can go there if you want but it wont help your argument i think your starting to twist facts and scarecrow arguments b/c you cant answer my fundamental question why do they have to take a name away from a group that is willing to give on everything else A good compromise mean no side is completely happy The faiths of the world have to recognize the legal rights couple have regardless of who make them up but we get to keep our names Homosexual couple get the legal right but not the name |
I don't think many blacks were upset when we abolished slavery. Should we have compromised, and maybe chopped one of their fingers off just to call it even?
I don't think many women were upset when we gave them the right to vote. Should we make them get felt up whenever they go in the voting booth to even things out?
We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a salt shaker half full of cocaine, a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers…Also a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of beer, a pint of raw ether and two dozen amyls. The only thing that really worried me was the ether. There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an ether binge. –Raoul Duke
It is hard to shed anything but crocodile tears over White House speechwriter Patrick Buchanan's tragic analysis of the Nixon debacle. "It's like Sisyphus," he said. "We rolled the rock all the way up the mountain...and it rolled right back down on us...." Neither Sisyphus nor the commander of the Light Brigade nor Pat Buchanan had the time or any real inclination to question what they were doing...a martyr, to the bitter end, to a "flawed" cause and a narrow, atavistic concept of conservative politics that has done more damage to itself and the country in less than six years than its liberal enemies could have done in two or three decades. -Hunter S. Thompson
