Yeah, you guys take the blame for this one too.

Oh. OK. Then point out a real Communist state as an example of the greatness of leftist philosphy. This one?


The only true communist entities that I know of are not a nation state. I am referring to the kibbutzem in Israel.

Stalin also tended to be autocratic and reactionary and tyrannical and pedantic.....some other traits often identified with the right.

And some shining examples when when leftist beliefs are actually put into practice- -such as Lenin, Stalin, Mao, Pol Pot, Ho, ....


What are those leftist beliefs that you think were implemented by Lenin and Stalin?

Maybe the communist party in the US but not the one in Russia.

Yeah, by that time the party in Russia was well aware of the cost of questioning their genius leader. He had taught them well.


No one said conservative dictators are nice!

Well, that's no surprise......I didn't say that they were best buds.

You didn't? Sure sounded like you meant to imply it.


Sorry, Lazy, but you are reading things into my posts that just aren't there.

Please don't tell me you find Churchill to be a humble man.

It's hard to be humble when you are as great as Churchill was.


Then you and I have a different definition of greatness. Not surprising......hubris is at the very essence of the conservative ideology.....that and abrasiveness.

OTOH, leftists have much to be humble about.

If that were true, you all would not get so bent of shape over the Clintons. It makes me laugh to watch the right go after them; only to see them fail miserably. Did you know Bill made $10 million last year just on speaking engagements? Let's project into the future after 2004 and see what Mr.Bushie will make. Assuming he sees a speaking coach and gets a good speech writer, I suspect he could make 100k per year. If not, he will paying them to speak. LMAO!
