1. It should not be the job of the government to provide health care to one citizen by taxing another.  However, it would be appropriate to allow small businesses to band together in AHP's to help lower their costs.

2. While some welfare reform has been made, it is imperative to end the welfare state in America.  While welfare has helped some, it is abused by many and private charity is a much better solution.

3. Abortion rights are fallacy found no where in the constitution dreamed up by the left.  It is imperative that would protect every human life and treat it with dignity.

4. The United States need to stop supporting Israel so much, yet it needs to not take Palestines side either.  The conflict is not something the US shoudl involve itself in

5. It is ironic that affirmative action was created because of racism, considering it itself is racist.  Every student or potential employee should be looked on an even playing field.

6. Capital punishment is immoral, and lacks any power of deterrence.

7. Unions are incredibly detrimental to America and many government unions raise taxes on Americans.

8. It is important that the interests of the United States are hold first and foremost

9. While gays and lesbians should not be stoned in the streets, it is ridiculous to afford them the institution of marriage when marriage is between a man and a woman.

10. The Soviet Union was an evil society and it is incredibly important that they were stopped before they were able to take over America

11. Globalization is important for the economy and thinks like free trade and outsourcing should not be restricted.

12. Torture is acceptable if it protects national security.

13. The "war on drugs" wastes vast government resources that could better be used elsewhere.

14. Social spending should be cut drastically starting with the end of welfare and privitizatin of SS

15. Undocumented workers should be put on the next bus back to Mexico.

16. The federal minimum wage destroys more jobs than it creates and should be abolished or set to an incredibly low amount

17. Income tax rates on the top 10 percent and everyone are far too high due to wasteful spending and unnecessary government programs.  Taxes should be cut along with lower spending.

18. Military force should be used to blow the hell out of other nations who are a threat

19. Man-made Global warming is a hoax perpetrated by liberals to try and make a political issue

20. Our present leadership is protecting American interests aboard and should be given a thumps up

When you get a bit older and more mature and don't sound like you were fed this bullsh**t from an angry white father figure, then maybe we can discuss politics more completely.

Ah, this goes back to my old thread about liberals favorite arguments.  This one is the "I am right, you must wrong" one

6. Capital punishment is immoral, and lacks any power of deterrence.
Disagree, should be used for important crimes against the state.
12. Torture is acceptable if it protects national security.
Disagree to some extent. I'm ok with torturing terrorists...

13. The "war on drugs" wastes vast government resources that could better be used elsewhere.
Disagree
Those three answers really surprise me

Why?
I always thought you were a person who would oppose on the death penalty saying it was barbaric, and I thought the same for torture.  The War on Drugs just surprises because I don't if I've ever met a person who thinks the War on Drugs is successful

Thought I'd pop this thread back up since they seem to be more of them, a few revised answers, it has been awhile.

1. It should not be the job of the government to provide health care to one citizen by taxing another.  However, it would be appropriate to allow small businesses to band together in AHP's to help lower their costs.

2. While some welfare reform has been made, it is imperative to end the welfare state in America.  While welfare has helped some, it is abused by many and private charity is a much better solution.

3. Abortion rights are fallacy found no where in the constitution dreamed up by the left.  It is imperative that would protect every human life and treat it with dignity.  If we can protect those that are most innocent, why have a government anyway?

4. The United States need to stop supporting Israel so much, yet it needs to not take Palestines side either.  The conflict is not something the US should itself in.  We need to completely cut foreign aid to both sides.

5. It is ironic that affirmative action was created because of racism, considering it itself is racist.  Every student or potential employee should be looked on an even playing field.  It may have been created with good intentions, but it is ridiculous in society today.

6. Capital punishment is not immoral, but not something the United States government should be carrying out on its citizens

7. Unions are incredibly detrimental to America and many government unions raise taxes on Americans.  There is no reason to protect union workers on strike, and employers should be allowed to fire at will (fire then from their jobs that is)

8. It is important that the interests of the United States are hold first and foremost when dealing with world affairs.  For that reason, it is imperative that the United States withdraws from the United Nations immediatley.

9. While it is inhumane to treat gays and lesbians as second-class citizens, it is also absurd to afford them marriage.  Civil unions should be left up to the state, but no marriage.

10. The Soviet Union was an evil society and it is incredibly important that they were stopped before they were able to undermine America and do to us what we did to them

11. Globalization is important for the economy and things like free trade and outsourcing should not be restricted.  Let companies that practice outsourcing be judged by the people, if they don't like their products, practices, or services, they will not buy from them.

12. Torture is acceptable if it protects national security, although should not be carried out except on POWs

13. The "war on drugs" wastes vast government resources that could better be used elsewhere.  It is time that we legalize every drug, the economic and social benefits are simply astounding.

14. Social spending should be cut drastically starting with the end of welfare and privitization of Social Security.  Social Security should also be cut from people currently under forty years old.  No new spending should occur unless a signifigant amount of Americans are helped, not a small few friends of powerful people. 

15. Undocumented workers should be put on the next bus back to Mexico (or wherever their from), at their own expense of course.  The millions of these people are brining disease and drugs into the country, along with exploiting our health care system and destroying our sovereignty.

16. The federal minimum wage destroys more jobs than it creates and should be abolished or set to an incredibly low amount.  If someone wants to work for a lower wage, they should be allowed to wave the minimum wage requirement.

17. Income tax rates on the top 10 percent and everyone are far too high due to wasteful spending and unnecessary government programs.  Taxes should be cut along with lower spending.

18. Military force should be used as a last resort to blow the hell out of other countries.  No more expensive and live costing ground wars, nuke em' all.

19. Man-made Global warming is a hoax perpetrated by liberals to try and make a political issue

20. Our present leadership is protecting American interests aboard and should be given a thumps up sucks huge balls

Well, I guess my views fit more of a libertarian mold, but I consider the two words to be pretty much the same.  Ron Paul is both

no Libertarian leaves the party because an ACLU lawyer was nominated...  you're a reactionary...
Little l and Big L has completely different meanings.  I consider myself of the small l variety.  Just as the Republican party does not represent conservative values

Stopped reading after the first couple of views. I'm pretty sure there is nothing that we agree on.

They are basically a mixture of arrogance and insanity.
LOL, the idea that one could not find something to agree with me on considering the range of my views is pretty ridiculous.  Although, considering your arrogance and lack of knowledge, I would not expect anything more.
