WE SURROUND THEM!

“open your mind and let's start acting like leaders and not followers. Watch this show. Don't be scared.


If you believe in most of these things, we have common ground;

The Nine Principles

1. America is good.

2. I believe in God and He is the Center of my Life.

3. I must always try to be a more honest person than I was yesterday.

4. The family is sacred. My spouse and I are the ultimate authority, not the government.

5. If you break the law you pay the penalty. Justice is blind and no one is above it.

6. I have a right to life, liberty and pursuit of happiness, but there is no guarantee of equal results.

7. I work hard for what I have and I will share it with who I want to. Government cannot force me to be charitable.

8. It is not un-American for me to disagree with authority or to share my personal opinion.

9. The government works for me. I do not answer to them, they answer to me.

I know that some kool-aid drinkers are lost but please check out this show if you are tired of the left-right clusterf@#k arguments, if you're ready to make a difference check this show out. The truth is that MOST OF US are in the middle....we surround them

“If you are the those in the middle than you are those surrounded.”

“4. The family is sacred. My spouse and I are the ultimate authority, not the government.

5. If you break the law you pay the penalty. Justice is blind and no one is above it.

So the marriage unit is the ultimate authority, but apparently there's an even ultimater ultimate authority that enforces laws, but it's not the government.”

“My opinion is, your good or your not....

Not gonna argue or nitpik BS minutia

Are you good or not good?

If your good, step into the light and lets take control back from the "dark side".”

“WOW...kinda like the stuff that has been taught in Scouts since 1908....”

“Do I get to play with light saber to help defeat the dark side?








Sorry, I had to say it.”

“So you post the new 9 Commandments, but you're "Not gonna argue or nitpik BS minutia"? I don't see Mutt's points as minutia.”

“Not gonna argue or nitpik BS minutia

translation: thinking is hard”

“1. America is good.

why do we have to decide that it is good or bad? there are good parts, and there are bad parts. already, we're approaching jingoism

2. I believe in God and He is the Center of my Life.

so, if im an atheist, agnostic, buddhist, etc im less good? screw that

3. I must always try to be a more honest person than I was yesterday.

no problem with that

4. The family is sacred. My spouse and I are the ultimate authority, not the government.

within your family, yes

5. If you break the law you pay the penalty. Justice is blind and no one is above it.

mutt makes a good point

6. I have a right to life, liberty and pursuit of happiness, but there is no guarantee of equal results.

absolutely

7. I work hard for what I have and I will share it with who I want to. Government cannot force me to be charitable.

no, but they can tax you


8. It is not un-American for me to disagree with authority or to share my personal opinion.

oh, sure, now that theres a democrat in office

9. The government works for me. I do not answer to them, they answer to me.

nail. head

reverence to what? your god? see answer to number 2”

“we surround you crash.....”

“I guess you don't see the irony in posting a list on nine principles and 12 values that you think people should all be living by - then by a line about 'kool-aid drinkers'.”

“1. America is good.

why do we have to decide that it is good or bad? there are good parts, and there are bad parts. already, we're approaching jingoism

Someone needs a commie hat. Why so much hate?”

“we surround you crash.....”

stratd00d

you are so simple”

“The truth is that MOST OF US are in the middle....we surround them


if youre in the middle, how do you surround anyone?

logic fail”

“if you are tired of the left-right clusterf@#k arguments

so instead of a left-right clusterfu ck, now youve just created a left-center-right clusterfu ck

conflict resolution fail. good job”

“Outstanding.”

“2. I believe in God and He is the Center of my Life.

1 Peter 2:13: "For the Lord's sake accept the authority of every human institution, whether of the emperor as supreme, or of governors, as sent by him to punish those who do wrong and to praise those who do right."

Paul wrote in Romans 13:1: "Let every person be subject to the governing authorities; for there is no authority except from God, and those authorities that exist have been instituted by God. Therefore whoever resist authority resists what God has appointed, and those who resist will incur judgment."

So I guess if you follow the word of God, you don't question the government? How does that jive with "My spouse and I are the ultimate authority, not the government", and "The government works for me. I do not answer to them, they answer to me"?”

“muddled thinking win”

“Rigid personality disorder”

“I can't help but wonder if this thread links in with Strat recently quitting smoking?”

“ding-ding-ding-ding-ding ----”

“Is smoking a family bonding issue, when the family is in session?”

“Strat thinks this is a wagon train and he's a Comanche.”

“4. The family is sacred. My spouse and I are the ultimate authority, not the government.

So the Government can't stop you from harming your kids?

“Just a note: Obama was elected by a landslide. His approval ratings are very high. We're not "kool-aid drinkers". We're the majority.

Most of us share many of those values. You're not part of some morally superior group.”

“We gotta get passed this concept that anyone left of Glenn Beck is a godless queer commie and anyone right of McCain is a fascist book burning totalitarian.

Nearly every single American fits but a single mixture of all our politics has to offer.”

“Why do social issues have to be bundled with fiscal discipline in our politics, so we are all surrounded by the extremes? The majority are nothing but insignificant reading being held captive between the book ends; The Bible and Marx.”

““Why do social issues have to be bundled with fiscal discipline in our politics, so we are all surrounded by the extremes?

it makes it easier for the simpletons. they need the concepts of "us" and "them" to make sense of the world”

“I belive honesty, hard work and personal responsibility should be taken in moderation.”

“That and virginity is highly overrated.”

“Especially multiple virginities.”

“I'm just glad Beck is now at #&%!$s where he belongs ---- Now he can really let his freak flag fly.”

“STFU, Nigal. You are surrounded. Please change your undies.”

“Lemme try that again!

#&%!$s #&%!$s #&%!$s”

“Wow.... you can't say   f o c k   around here,   LMAO”

“what the hell does #&%!$ mean?”

“f uck
fu ck
fuc k”

“wait, you can not say #&%!$??”

“F O C K

when did that become a bad word, in fact when did it become a word?”

“weyouwe”

“I was talking about Glen Beck moving to   F o c k s   .”

“Yall make my butt ichy.”

“Here's my point...there's 15 % hard freeky-deeky leftists, there's 15% whacked outhard righters....then there's 60-70% in the middle”

“because people think your list is not well-thought out, that's drama?

youre one of the biggest offenders of the "left-right clusterfu ck", as you call it. every topic you weigh in on, its libbies this, lefties that. so im calling you a big damn hypocrite.

save the drama for your llama”

“15%,60%-70%, because they're all human beings, want to eat you and your's and you must treat them as germs and nothing else. It's a frog eat dog world out there and society is wrong, it is not 'survival of the twitest', but , as Darwin said ' the survival of the knittest'. Neeeedles away, 'Are we not men?'”

“Crash, let's find common ground. Saleboard, don't take the brown acid......

Doesn't anyone have the feeling that something's not right....that something's about to happen?

If we were neighbors, and this society melted down...could we get along and work together?

I think, yes.

Lobbyest, congress, the media, republicans, democrats....have failed us, have lost sight of what's important...and distracted us into forgetting what's important to us.....


My religious beliefs aren't important....it's not about religion or demonination ...it's about being honest and having morals

Are you good? I believe there are more Good people than not. I also believe the people running things, for the most part, don't have our best interest in mind, rather their own best interest(getting elected again).

How bout term limits? so these clowns have to go back into society and live under the laws they create for us?”

“We are devo.”

“Do we not sin, we are Wacko, W..A...”

“Strat, no one was being dramatic as much as they were laughing at you. I'd take your "let's find some common ground" approach if I saw that philosophy in some of your posts for about,say, two weeks.
