The following is an exchange between me and a fellow Austinite who goes by the name of Sluggo. My remarks are in italics:
My balls slap the chin of any fool who backs this piece of used food.
Used food being shit, right? Nice.
The patriot act is just an excuse to make government more intrusive. Simply enforcing the existing rules would have kept these dikkos from being in this country.
I don't know about that. Didn't all 19 of the towelheads who attacked us on 11 September come here by legal means? "Existing rules" didn't keep anything out.
Vast armies of agents monitoring the american people will not prevent terrorism.
If politically correct (as opposed to reasonable) civil libertarians would allow racial and background profiling, we could narrow our focus almost one hundred percent. We know who's got it in for us; it's no mystery. But we have to go through the pretense of frisking little old ladies from Omaha in our airports instead of grilling these Mohammedan nut-jobs just to satisfy the liberals.
Deeply embedded networks of secret intelligence sources and agressive extraction of information will.
Sounds good to me, but how is that consistent with your preceding statement?
These efforts should take place within the framework of a true intelligence network.
Paying some mouth breather with a GED 35000.00 a year to go through your fukking bags at the airport will not keep you safe.
I agree. I'm no fan of the TSA.
Holding airlines (and airline executives) accountable for enforcing existing policies will.
Not a bad idea. Them and the airports. But who knew box cutters would be so harmful?
As for the rest of it. Anyone who still thinks bush is a "conservative" is a MORON.
What else would you call him? (Besides used food, of course.)
It is not conservative to throw open the the gates to every Tomas,Ricardo, and Enrique just so you and your crew can get some cheap brown labor without having to duck la migra.
I disagree. That is the definition of conservative, especially among the native working class: fat cats putting personal profits before the best interests of the common man and our culture. Reagan did the same thing in 1986. It's irresponsible.
It isn't the act of a conservative to spend the country into a deficit and cut taxes, unless you want to make american money worthless.
Deficit-spending is the basis of Keynesian economics. Remember FDR and Reagan?
Conservatives don't go meddling in other peoples affairs across the globe.
Nonsense, Sluggo. A century ago, McKinley and TR were the biggest imperialists around (e.g., the Spanish-American War, the Panama Canal, etc.). Those guys were Republicans. And let's not forget, as Southerners, that McKinley's old commander-in-chief waged war against the South. Republicans certainly do have a history of "meddling."
That used to be a job for the liberals.
That's true. From Wilson on down.
But there he is, the yankee jefecito playing the Texan and being a little jack-ass.
I defecate in the milk of your sluttish mothers.
Don't try your sweet-talk on me, see.
