How do you call us Children when we like to pay our way, support our own needs and have the utmost personal responsibility, while your trying to ensure children don't have to grow up, and the government and you can mommy them they the grave?

Your son has Tea Party leanings becuase the writing is on the wall... There is no Social Security for us, there will be no medicare mediacaid for us... yet we have to fund this dying system for you.

I seriously wonder if you realize the true state of your nanny state and wonder how you plan on funding these beloved programs forever.

Are you somehow implying that we do not also do those things?

Again, does it sound like that's how I've raised my children or that's how they've turned out?

My son has Tea Party leanings because he married a born-again evangelical and joined her in her religious fevor.

And I seriously wonder if you truly understand the ramifications, not only to others but to yourself as well, of losing these programs.

Have you taken offense to the same name you called all of us just a few posts ago???

Yes, your ideology prompts children to never take responsibility for their decisions and actions, they are never asked to pay their way, and expect everything to be handed to them...

Not at all....the "children" reference was to those who continuely refer to the President as "Crackhead-in-chief" and liberals as "loons," and the countless other juvenile expressions of distaste. I felt Patters was stooping to that level and it annoyed me because, while I have come to expect people like WP and RW and 13 (all conservatives) to call us names, I do not expect liberals, like Patters, to resort to the same sort of behaviour.

Yes, a "child" raised with my ideology who owns and operates 8 furniture stores and employees 60 people before the age of 30 certainly has never taken responsibility and definitely expects to be handed everything.

Whatever you say. Me and my ideology raised another parasite.

He's a prime example, isn't he?

(2) The freeloaders would be left to fend for themselves, and you'd have all the guns and ammo you need to protect yourselves.
(3) You could get rid of immigrants, blacks, gays, and other pests simply by not allowing them in your restaurants, apartment complexes, and stores.

What else?
How is this thread not considered trolling? If I started something like this it would have been closed about 10 minutes afterwards.

Well gee if you took 5 seconds to look for yourself, you would see that that thread has been locked - and for no valid reason whatsoever.

Other than possibly Harry describing, in loving detail, his sexual arousal.

No worries, you can keep playing the victim ad nauseum and I'm sure sooner or later someone will pay attention to your woes.

If Harry or anyone else does something inappropriate within a thread (personal attack, hijacking, etc) then that person should be banned from the thread instead of closing the entire thread itself.

I have no doubt that if he made the exact same post into one of your threads then that is what would have happened. The thread itself would not have been closed.
