Sen. Michael Bennet (D-CO) on Government Shutdown (C-SPAN) WATCH IT ALL. PLEASE. I'm not a "toe the party line guy". I consider myself a reasonable man. Michael Bennet, to me, seems like a very reasonable man. Don't agree with him on everything, but he's earned my respect anyway. ETA: I guess we can't even acknowledge a good point anymore. I didn't and wouldn't vote for the guy, but when you make blanket statement that everything a Democrat says is wrong you're undermining your own ability to be effective in a debate. ETA #2: Just watched Ted's rebuttal... he did a great job addressing Bennet's points. |

Think again, he is a commie. The gov is not responsible for preventing flooding and the world existed before the gov became our savior for all things.

Yeah, I always have lots of respect for crying pussies that are full of shit.

I didn't make it a minute before getting tired of his excuses for the poor first response performance of Governor Hickeypooper and his band of socialists

Dupe View Quote He didn't blame the flood on the shutdown... he blamed the poor response partially on the shutdown. |

what a great addition to the conversation I'm not a fan of big government, but I don't see how you can deny that the world was a much worse place before the United States Federal Government hit the scene.

government = inherently evil but necessary
How do we keep its evil in check? The founders gave us the answer, very small government and very limited central government. Fuck all the democrats and some republicans for pushing us into this socialist control freak nightmare we have now. |

How did any of that torch Cruz? I ask not just as a person who watched the speech, in its entirety, I did, but as a person who understands how our government functions and having watched our government operate for many decades. Or do you actually believe the lies he is peddling? |

Quoted: I've listened to their side plenty. Their morals are lacking and their ideas suck. Why does something always have to "get done"? And it's always the fed that has to save us?

You think somehow the overreaching federal government is somehow responsible for the good in this world? I think we succeeded in spite of it. |

A dupe because he mentioned the same event 6 years later? GTFO He didn't blame the flood on the shutdown... he blamed the poor response partially on the shutdown. View Quote Where is their responsibility in all of this?! Why even have state and local governments and state militias (the National Guard) if they are so useless and ineffectual? How about the rest of the bullshit and LIES in that speech of his? Why do you take what he says at face value without actually checking what he says? |

Fuck him.
I voted for Cruz in the 2016 primary and I'll vote for him again if I ever get the chance. |

OP, do you prefer traditional, or parade gloss polish on the boots you lick?

View Quote $6b to the taxpayer now He addressed and acknowledged the corruption in or government to his colleagues faces Listen, he cited a fair amount of information in the video. I don't have the time or desire to address everything he said. Is our government perfect? not even fucking close. Is it still he best one in the world? I think so. |

OP, I like to sit my teenagers down frequently and describe the lies of the left. We watch Jordan Peterson sometimes, sometimes Judge Nap, Horowitz (SP?) or about anyone. We talk about the fallacies of reason and logic that is displayed by the left and how to understand how wrong and misguided they are. This statement will be this weeks talking point. It's so utterly absurd and yet commonly 'understood' that my kids will soon be better versed than you in reality. Thanks for that. But yeah- Incredibly dumb thing to say. |

Why is this forum sucking more and more? This is what we should be getting to the bottom of.

Because of our dominance the world has prospered for centuries relative to the past. |
