Because leftist extremists are not emotionally or mentally adults

In Reply to: Why don't you discuss like an adult instead of throwing temper tantrums? - Lila
They cannot hold their own in debate, so they throw fits and insults. They throw they pre-programmed leftist talking points that have nothing of substance behind them. They cannot have an adult conversation simply because they are not adults psychologically.

Which is exactly why your leftist/lib basher blood boils...sm
To come over here and attempt to stir us up and run people off.
Glad to oblidge you, no shoe.
There is no need to be snotty, we are all adults sm
This is not redistribution. It is simply a more fair tax structure. Actually so far, I've been helping the rich by paying more taxes proportionately than they do. Yes, my dear, in a civilized society, we all pay taxes. For someone who is poor to pay more than they can afford is not fair. I will from now on ignore your posts as you are as thick as one.
Kids are meaner than adults
Talk about a jungle where only the strong survive - makes this board look like a tea party with the queen of England.
if kids are forced to do it, then adults should be too

They've got some extremists to get rid of
You don't really know anything about Great Britain, obviously. They've got hate-mongers standing in Hyde Park every Sunday afternoon, gathering crowds and spouting all kinds of extremist garbage.
'Splain that to me, Lucy.
talking about extremists?
got a mirror? I'd say you are so far at the extreme end you are about to fall off.
Report: 1 in 31 U.S. adults in prison system
Updated: 8:07 p.m. ET Nov. 2, 2005
WASHINGTON - Nearly 7 million adults were in U.S. prisons or on probation or parole at the end of last year, 30 percent more than in 1995, the Justice Department said Wednesday.
That was about one in every 31 adults under correctional supervision at the end of 2004, compared with about 1 in 36 adults in 1995 and about 1 adult in every 88 in 1980, said Allan J. Beck, who oversaw the preparation of the department’s annual report on probation and parole populations.
Beck attributed the overall rise in the number of people under correctional supervision to sentencing reforms of the 1990s. The nation’s incarcerated population has been increasing for more than 30 years, with sharp growth in the last decade.He said crime rates have fallen in recent years, which helps account for slower growth among people on probation — those allowed to live in the community with some restrictions rather than being incarcerated.
The number of people on probation in 2004 grew by 6,343 to about 4.2 million in 2004, the report said.
Nearly 50 percent of all probationers at the end of last year were convicted of a felony. Twenty-six percent were on probation for a drug-law violation, and 15 percent for driving while intoxicated, said the annual Justice Department report.
Racial imbalance persists in probation
Whites made up 56 percent of the probation population and only 34 percent of the prison population, according to Wednesday’s report and another Justice Department report released last month.
“White people — for whatever reason — seem to have more access to community supervision than African Americans and Hispanics,” said Jason Ziedenberg, executive director of the Justice Policy Institute, which promotes alternatives to incarceration. He called probation a cheaper and more effective form of rehabilitation.
Blacks, he noted, comprised 30 percent of probationers and 41 percent of prisoners at the end of 2004. Hispanics made up 12 percent of the probation population and 19 percent of the prison population
Parolees grew fastest among those under correctional supervision. They are criminal offenders who rejoin society with restrictions for a time after they complete a prison term.
Number of parolees grows
The adult parole population grew 20,230, or 2.7 percent, during the year, more than twice the average annual increase of 1.3 percent since 1995, the report said. The total number of parolees at the end of 2004 was 765,355.
Beck said a late 1990s spike in prison populations is now showing up in the number of parolees, as the number of prisoners released rises.
The parole population grew during 2004 in 39 states, with double-digit growth in 10 states, led by Nebraska’s 24 percent increase. The number of people on parole decreased in nine states and didn’t change in Maine.
About 187,000, or 39 percent of discharged parolees went back to prison or jail in 2005. While the number has grown, the rate has held relatively stable since 1995, when 160,000, or 39 percent of discharged parolees returned to incarceration.
The total number of people incarcerated in the United States grew 1.9 percent in 2004 to 2,267,787 people, according to the report released last month.

How about knocking some of those able-bodied adults on welfare...
off and using that to fund health care for children? Should go a long way. Make the hard decisions. Which is more important? But then you have the issue of that woman who has 3 or 4 kids and feeding them on welfare, you kick her off welfare to insure her kids, who is going to feed them? See a pattern here? We need to look at ALL assistance programs and trim the fat. The federal government (more specifically yours and my tax dollars) was never intended to support people who can work but won't. Social programs have gone way, way, WAY out of proportion. And the people who get the benefit of the programs pay nothing into them...zip, zilch, nada. How is that fair to the rest of us, pray tell? If they raise our taxes much more, the whole country will have to be on welfare and assistance just to pay for our insurance and everyone else's. There has to be an end to this somewhere...am I the only one who sees this vicious circle?
Oops. A voyeur peeking in on two adults.
You are right on, but Nancy Pelosi is so darned MILITANT about her leftist views, (registered Dem he
I think some of those mice are running amok in her head. I used to respect her as a strong female role model in politics, but lately she has become just another aggressive, abrasive, cultish Demobot that I am totally sick of her. The more I get into politics, the more I am convinced we need a new system, this two-party system is antiquated and has become just sorry, elitist clubs, us versus them, as America's heart and soul deteriorates, we have become the new Roman Empire, writing our own end...starting with the wrong stimulus bill in this depression. Shame on them all. Sorry for venting, watching C-Span while I work all week!
Oh we're just ALL racists and extremists
no matter how many times people explain to you that we are not Bush cronies and explain how we are not racists you continue pointing your finger towards us and crying *Racists!!! Look over there racists!!!* People aren't buying it nor appreciating it and it's really a reflection of the liberal agenda's intelligence level as a whole.
Your play in your outdated playbood of *just keep screaming something is true even when there's no substance to it OR it's been proven to be wrong* is so outdated and so blantantly transparent that if liberalism was a football team they would be losing 99-0 because EVERYONE knows EVERY play in their playbook.
Unfortunately, Muslim extremists don't agree with you.
xx
agree, but to be fair if 1 person is forced, then everyone (adults too) should be

No extremists like you have labeled him a jerk and racist
He hasn't proven anything. To liberals accusation is a verdict. Mr. Bennett has written a book of virtues. Why don't you hold your accusation/label until you've read that book..not that I expect you will. Anyone who knows Bennett and his work know he's not a racist. He was taken out of context and that was that. He stated a hypothetical situation and in the next breath said it would be morally reprehensible.
You may think us conservatives are so illiterate that we would just believe the baloney taken from context, but you are wrong.
Agree completely......Muslim extremists are not
Heck, the media is just now putting out the so-called honor killings these muslims believe in. There is no honor to it.....it is cold-blood murder. They do it here (where they can do as they please) and they do it back in their home country, so please, there is no despair. It is a sick ideology they live by. Little boys brainwashed from childhood on to hate. The women are the ones who are in despair.
Wrong. Rightwing Extremists, not conservatives.
Like hate groups and neo-nazis. If you are a member of one of those type of groups, then yes, this report is about you.
You appear to be mentally ill
nuff said.
We welcome extremists...as long as you're extremely moderate! : )
Oh, gosh. I cracked myself up.
handicapped and mentally ill
You can call it liberal or socialism or whatever tilts your wheel - but I believe it is our duty as HUMAN BEINGS to help the handicapped and mentally ill. There are some who, due to no fault of their own, are in need of help by our government because by the looks of most complaints I am reading - We The People - are only out for ourselves and screw everybody else. Just exactly what are we paying massive taxes for? If it is not to help my fellow man.......then what is it for? They did everything on the cheap (including outfitting our soldiers in Iraq and Afghanistan) during our last administration - less government so GW and his cronies could steal us blind and walk off with the WH silverware in the last few days of tyranny. God help us all when the food riots start.
Mentally ill and Reaganomics
I, along with most Americans remember when Reagan decided to 'de-institutionalize' the mentally ill; turned them into the streets and when he did so, he made certain that the majority of these unfortunate souls were released into urban neighborhoods (I live in the Bay Area in California) - of course he did not turn them loose in cities like Pleasanton, Walnut Creek, Concord, Orinda and other affluent suburbs, and didn't give a rat's patoot regarding the effect this would have on these already struggling urban neighborhoods, and cared even less about the type of care these institutionalized individuals received (most often than not did NOT receive). Every time I hear that man's name it sickens me..

He is mentally disturbed.

Mentally ill....? That is quite a bash, friend...
I was trying to be civil but the gloves are off now. You are so far embroiled into the liberal lockstep you don't even know what civil is, and you have demonstrated your own immaturity by this attack.
*I think you and your friends are playground bullies with maturity of a 5-year-old...*
This from someone who supports a so-called adult who let his johnson run his life...and then commit perjury and obstruction of justice to cover it up. Yep, there is a MATURE role model for you and you are following him like the sheeple. Instead of talking about it intelligently (that presupposes you are capable), you whine, snipe, and run.
You are welcome to any opinion you have about the *far right* Republican party, conservatives, et al. I have an opinion about the *far left* (although I believe that the whole party is so far left there is no more *moderate* left, they have been so effectively silenced). I believe that the Democratic party will finish destroying this country if they stay in power. Bill got a good start, and you, like the good sheeple are, follow blindly. The upper crust of your liberal party could not care LESS about you, walked to power on your shoulders, and intend to keep you oppressed and under their thumb to stay in power. The truth is, the far right Republican party cares more about you than they ever will. Not bashing, an opinion!
*You guys don't play fair.* Boy, THAT is rich! Someone disagrees with you or takes a shot at that tin god Clinton you bow to, and you don't want to have an intelligent debate, you just want the naysayers to go away. It is that kind of blinder vision that lets people like Adolf Hitler take hold and suddenly it is all right to kill six million people. You spewed enough venom here to pretty much prove that point. But the bigger point is this one, and if you have one brain cell left that is not liberally indoctrinated, LISTEN. The far right Republican party, and conservatives, are AMERICANS too! For the love of mike, get a grip and take off that liberal hat for 10 seconds and realize, conservatives are people just like you, have families just like you, pay taxes just like you, and whether you LIKE IT OR NOT, have rights just like you. I cannot believe the tone you are taking. Read your own post! Sheesh. You are acting like these people (myself included) are your mortal enemies. What in the world is the MATTER with you??? This is a posting board, not a battlefield. Good grief!!
Ronnie Reagan, the man who cut all the programs for mentally ill and sm
that is when you started seeing all the homeless people on the streets. During his reign of terror. A horrible president.

U.S. military violated own rules on mentally ill troops...sm
Updated: 10:04 p.m. ET May 13, 2006
HARTFORD, Conn. - U.S. military troops with severe psychological problems have been sent to Iraq or kept in combat, even when superiors have been aware of signs of mental illness, a newspaper reported for Sunday editions.
The Hartford Courant, citing records obtained under the federal Freedom of Information Act and more than 100 interviews of families and military personnel, reported numerous cases in which the military failed to follow its own regulations in screening, treating and evacuating mentally unfit troops from Iraq.
In 1997, Congress ordered the military to assess the mental health of all deploying troops. The newspaper, citing Pentagon statistics, said fewer than 1 in 300 service members were referred to a mental health professional before shipping out for Iraq as of October 2005.
Do you know how mentally sick you are? You sound like a wild woman to me.
