Here, let me give you an example of "regressive." Socialism is an old, failed ideology that you liberals wish to push on America. This is "regressive" thinking, and therefore YOU are a "regressive."

You're welcome. Since you liberals enjoy free things, consider this to be a free lesson.

Since you seem to enjoy Google, look up Christian Socialism. Was Jesus a Socialist?

Personally, I consider myself a Progressive - one who looks forward but have no problem with the Socialist nomenclature either.

I took your advice and did in fact google that term because it is new to me.

I bring you this quote from the Wiki write up on what you proclaim yourself to be.


"Capitalism is the way of the devil and exploitation. If you really want to look at things through the eyes of Jesus Christ—who I think was the first socialist—only socialism can really create a genuine society. Hugo Chávez[50]"


I assume based on your profession of beliefs that you agree with this Christian Socialist.

What a sad state of affairs when voters last hope on a gaffer like Biden.
Apparently America has a brain drain not only for presidential candidates but voters as well.

There is not one candidate running that has excited me.

Personal Best Regards:

As always, there is a group that invariably gets every single thing down to 2 choices. Iran or war is a current example.

This is ALWAYS the ploy of those who wish to stop any dialogue and proclaim themselves as the all knowing.

They show utter disrespect for anyone who does not see things as they do. To them, it is either how they think or you are wrong.

To me, it is the heighth of political back talk. It shows laziness in not hearing all sides.

I surely hope in their real life they see more dimensions in life than 2.

I am a conservative Republican. I find socialism repugnent and a failed policy.
yet, believe it or not, I live a Christian life. I may, or may not, give of my money and time for those less fortunate than I.

I marched with MLK in Philadelphia, spent my 30"s running an organization for and 100% populated by blacks.

I began and managed a group to allow for greater input for Spanish immigrants in my home town.

YET, those who profess to be progressive and "Jesus like" have called me and others racist, bigoted and insensitive.

You embarrass yourself by allowing your politics to totally twist your thinking and it begins to sound as if you really believe yourself to be "Jesus like"

Interesting that a liberal (most are atheist) would try to use Jesus in his argument. What is really interesting is the fact that you proved the point that you are in fact a "regressive." You are finally starting to see the light in two things; Christianity and Socialist regression. Who said liberals don't have the capacity to learn?

No, Jesus was not a socialist. He believed in voluntary giving (charity). The gov doesn't ask you to donate. They demand that you donate.

If what you said was true, that socialism is that old, then you proved that you are a regressive.

Please give me some examples of where socialism allows for a better lifestyle than Capitalism.

Maybe you should take a minute and research the meaning of "Progressive." I will leave that up to you, but to summarize; a Progressive is one that believes in a fictional Utopia, where he has no responsibility and the gov provides for his safety, security, housing, food, welfare, and deviant lifestyle without interference in these. Progressives believe that no one should have more than another, no matter how hard they work. Basically, a Progressive believes in a comic book fantasy, filled with LSD hallucinogenic colors and Metallica music. Progressives are Anti-American.

Progressive is camouflage for ancient socialism.

In the scope of the Federal Gvt. $4 Million is like a grain of sand in Lake Sumter .

The news report at the time said it was only 5.

Does it make anybody but me wonder what direction was given to the folks who were responsible and accountable for the training?

Do you think someone would say/think or what ever...hey....look what we are spending and what we are not getting? Like maybe when they spent $50 0r $100 million?

To expend $500 million dollars and nody saking hey what's up?

Just think about it. How many people who had to be involved knowing it was failing and NO ONE responsible?

Now multiply that by the hundreds of thousands of projects spending more money that nobody is responsible or accountable to say how we are doing or getting our moneys worth.

And doing really stupid stuff, spending/throwing away billions of dollars with no alarms going off.

I don't care what your party affiliation is was or what ever. If that does not resonate as not what responsible do....then there most certainly is no hope.
