Now, there is an interesting turnaround on the race card discussion that comes up so often relative to the President.  I guess turnabout is fair play.

It's not culturally acceptable for any black person to be a Conservative in America.

Sexual harrasment - we have now included unwanted questions and looks as sexual harrasment.

Sexual Harrasment stands a good change of solving the population problem, especially in the USA.

I like this story about the dog and the gecko.

I'm going to edit this to add that while I realize the story is not perfect, I'm not including it because it's perfect, but because it's illustrative.

I think what we have created is a victim culture.  Anytime an action is criticized the action can not be the reason, it must be a personal attack.  When the troop increase in Afghan was made by Obama it was cheered by conservatives and few noticed.  When conservatives attacked Omamacare, it was racism.  If you want a narrative, you must create a victim because No Victim, No Story.

lol, too long to make a decision, less troops than McChrystal wanted, and an unrealistic withdraw deadline are the "cheers" i remember.

back from when you were cheering him on

Maybe they have to laud the achievements in Iraq because they are using the same plan in Afghanistan.  Sort of a dangerous political tactic because all the powers to be in the last admin stated that the strategy was effective in Iraq but cannot be used identically in Afghanistan.  So they can be viewed as using the same Bush/Cheney strategy and only the results will determine if they are incompetent or just good followers.  
Joe could possibly be the dumbest man in politics.

It's neat if you piece it all together.  Obama and Biden both opposed the surge as Senators.  They both ran their platforms as against what the surge represents, they as a team then incorporated the same philosophy in Afghanistan, and now they take credit for the success in Iran.  But somehow they still blame all the bad stuff on Bush, the persons whose actions they emulate.  I wonder how many people are uneducated enough to fall for this.

What that shows is that I DID support the moves and compared them to the type of moves that the last admin made.  I also stated that this admin tends to give the appearance of mass change from the past but little is actually different in most areas.  Maybe that's why the first argument after opposiition to a bill is that it contains what conservatives have agreed upon in the past, implying that it must be something else, and weaker minds will fall for it.

What you're doing is confusing criticism with non-acceptance.  In DC everything is criticized by one side while being presented by the other, yet both sides usually accept it or present bills to reject it.  What you are doing is proving my point that criticism has become opposition in an attempt to create hate.

Both the Occupy movement and the Tea Party wouldn't exist if we didn't live in a victim-driven society. "The Man" is apparently screwing everybody, including those on the Right, Left, and in the Center.

Well said.  We need to move forward by eliminating like and dislike and enhancing agree/disagree because regardless of the party, the Man is still the Man (gender neutral term).
