1. you don't even know what "right-wing" really means... 2. i do NOT trust nor follow ANY mainstream media puppets. 3. ESTABLISHMENT Republicans either do not comprehend the definition of democracy or will not tell you because nobody would vote for democrats if they understood the history of democracy - which is why i do not trust ESTABLISHMENT Republicans. so please enlighten us by providing a quote from Rush or any mainstream media giving the true definition of democracy... "Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to have for lunch. Liberty is a well-armed lamb contesting the vote!" - Benjamin Franklin "A democracy is nothing more than mob rule, where fifty-one percent of the people may take away the rights of the other forty-nine." - Thomas Jefferson "Our real disease - which is democracy." - Alexander Hamilton "Remember, democracy never lasts long. It soon wastes, exhausts, and murders itself. There NEVER was a democracy yet that did not commit suicide." - John Adams > Japan has a Constitution and it's not a Republic, it's a liberal > democracy. And furthermore has never had any amendments to it's > Constitution. first you thought Greece was a democracy (until i corrected you 5x), now you think Japan is a "democracy"? Why wouldn't you just look it up instead of making an ass out of yourself? "Japan is a constitutional MONARCHY where the power of the Emperor is very limited." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Japan#Government_and_politics > No the point is, you think the Constitution is an end to a means and > not a means to an end. the point is that you're deliberately putting words in my mouth again in a sad attempt to paint me as an extremist. and my opinion of the Constitution has nothing to do with the definitions of Republic and democracy. remember? the topic of your ignorant rant at the top of this thread? > You really don't really know what your talking about. But keep > thinking you do. is that your self diagnosis, studio? i'd say that's pretty accurate. using D- grammar while bigoting others whom you know nothing about - about topics you know nothing about. almost everything you wrote about this topic was demonstrably false and/or deliberately deceptive. > Is the Constitution a living document, or a dead document? This is the > question. And your answer is that it should be static and dead. deliberately putting YOUR OWN absurd words in my mouth, psychological projection = used by the weak in debates to create a strawman that is easily attacked in a sideshow to avoid discussion of the real topic... i think the Constitution should be followed - and i don't think it is - even though they all took an oath to defend it from enemies foreign and domestic. is that really too much to ask? democracy for dummies: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MW6AKVyi6As -- Thanks for being part of "PoliticalForum" at Google Groups.
