Hm. I apologize. Upon re-reading my post, I note that I had intended my statement to be abstract, but I note that it was improperly constructed and can be seen as being directed at you personally. That was not what I intended, and I'll repair it if I can. I try not to personalize philosophical debates like this, since they are so very emotional and personal, and I truly do apologize for offending you, it was not my intention.

And to think you've been banned elsewhere.

I think people are drawing bogus parallels with the ACORN video.

In the case of the ACORN video, the ACORN employees were actually providing advice on how to do illegal things.

In the case of the Planned Parenthood videos, the Planned Parenthood employee was only pointing out how the organization could legally help people, while trying to avoid supporting anything illegal.

Giving money to a drunk to get a meal, even if you suspect he might be violating vagrancy laws, is not at all the same thing as telling him how to rob a store.

that video has been totally debunked

You're in good form in this thread. :lol:

I'm glad to think that you might not really believe most of what you've said here.
Correct me if I'm wrong.
You're not wrong. But I did improperly and inadvertently personalize a highly critical comment which I'm now unable to repair, so I've offered an apology for not being abstract enough.

The ACORN videos weren't "debunked," the words of the ACORN employees are self-explanatory. Any undercover video needs to be edited to fit time constraints. By the way, Wikipedia is not really a credible source for anything political, because such entries can be written by anyone and can propound any political position the author desires.

The Congress made its decision, and the federal courts upheld that decision, and ACORN lost its federal funding, which is exactly what should have happened. Unfortunately, it just changed it's name and went right back into business, thanks to Obama's support for Progressive redistributionism and entitlement programs.

No worries Seth. I'm not offended...I've heard it all before already, just never heard it from somebody I converse with. You are entitled to yours, (or your poe's) opinion, as misguided as it may be.

knock it off you guys.
I'm wild just like a rock, a stone, a tree
And I'm free, just like the wind the breeze that blows
And I flow, just like a brook, a stream, the rain
And I fly, just like a bird up in the sky
And I'll surely die, just like a flower plucked
And dragged away and thrown away
And then one day it turns to clay
It blows away, it finds a ray, it finds its way
And there it lays until the rain and sun
Then I breathe, just like the wind the breeze that blows
And I grow, just like a baby breastfeeding
And it's beautiful, that's life

Is asking someone to kill himself a personal attack?
