24. I agree with some* of Rimmer's points.
Edited on Thu Dec-18-03 04:20 PM by everythingsxen
And what is this evil that triumphs when good men do nothing? What are we really talking about here and is it worth fighting for? Is it worth turning our heads and allowing evil to continue on while we do nothing?

Oddly enough, I have always loved that line about evil triumphing if good men do nothing. However, IMNSHO, the Repubs are 100 fold more gulty of the evils he later adresses.


Corruption is accepting campaign cash from the Chinese in exchange for military hardware. Corruption is accepting campaign cash as bribes from Indonesian power brokers, from Buddhist Monks, from corrupt corporate moguls. Corruption is defined by the myriad criminal acts and practices of the Clintons and the Gores and their corrupt Democrat minions.

Is corruption also handing out lucrative contracts to donors and friends of yours who helped elect you? Is corruption covering up scam after scam? It sounds like we both hate the same thing from our politicos, we hate corruption.

Corruption is the land grabs, the power grabs, the gun grabs, the bribery, the shady deals, the high crimes and treason. Corruption is the theft of campaign dollars through forced labor union deductions. Corruption is the systematic indoctrination of several generations of our youth with socialist dogma via government school systems. Corruption is the removal of God from public life and substituting in the evil homosexual/feminist agenda and the destruction of moral society. Corruption is lying to the public about global warming and the selling of the Kyoto treaty. Corruption is giving up our national sovereignty to the United Nations. Corruption is the abuses of office, obstruction of justice, lying, perjury and subornation of perjury.

Again, everything you have named, the Republicans are far more culpable than the Dems ever will be. At least the Dems can play nice with the other nations of the world, instead of rushing off to war at the drop of a hat.

The Democrat Party is thoroughly corrupt. There is no question about that, but it's way beyond corrupt. It's also evil.

I would be tempted to agree, at least partially. I feel a large majority of politicains (repub and dem alike) are corupt and dedicated to keeping themselves in office.

As far as actual "evil"; the Dems are as "evil" as Repubs.

Waco was evil. The killing of innocent men, women, children and babies is evil. Torturing them for weeks on end, gassing them, and then burning them alive is pure evil. This was perpetrated by a corrupt and evil Democrat Administration and covered-up by corrupt and evil Democrat Congressmen and Senators, many of whom you are saying should be allowed to remain in office even today.

I agree. Killing innocent women and children just to get one crazy man is unthinkable. Imagine dropping bombs on all those innocents... oh wait you said Waco not Baghdad. Funny how all of your statements apply exactly to Iraq, yet you are undoubtedly a staunch supporter of it. Way to go Rimmy, your a hypocrite.

And as bad as that is, it pales in comparison to the Democrat government sanctioned and funded wholesale slaughter of the most innocent life of all, the murder of innocent human life in the womb. This is evil. Pure evil. And this evilness is openly perpetrated by a thoroughly corrupt and evil Democrat Party. The same corrupt and evil Democrat Congress and Judiciary whom you are now saying deserve to remain in office.

Been a fundie long? Anyway, why do you care? Seriously. It's not your business. It's between a woman, her partner and their doctor. I bet you would just hate to imagine a world where women who are raped by you and your brown-shirted thugs couldn't have an abortion to wipe away the demon-seed. What about women who wlll die if the child is born?

I suppose you are right though, we should all just stop allowing abortions. Afterall, you, personally, will be taking care of those newborn kids right? You are pretty big on talk, so put up or shut up. If you and your neo-con buddy's care so much for those fetuses, you will come up witht he money to pay for the hospital stay (too bad we don't have that "evil" National Healthcare, otherwise women might afford having kids.) and then pay for the kid to live his whole life... You guys'll do that right?

IMHO, allowing these Democrats to remain in power is aiding and abetting the corruption and treason, and is acting as an accessory before and after the fact to the murderers of innocent human life. Is doing nothing and allowing this evil to triumph evil itself?

Wow, thems fighting words. Of course, I'd love to know how the Dems are "in power", you guys have control of every branch. Oh wait, they are in power because they oppose your divinely appointed fuhrer? You'd prefer a one party system ja? I tell you what, if you will stand with me as we have the current administration tried for their crimes against humanity, I will stand with you as we resolve your issues with democracy.

I love my country. I love the Constitution. I love life. I love God. I know that the Democrats hate my country, hate the Constitution, hate God and hate human life. I see that the only Party capable of blocking and defeating the evil Democrats is the Republican Party. I see that many races are so close that as little as a one percent siphon of conservative votes to a third party could be the difference between success and failure. I see allowing a Democrat to remain in power when it could have been prevented as a triumph of evil.

You are an amazing person. You can see the truth and yet somehow you can totally ignore it.

By the way, your intro to that paragraph seems similar to the Emperor's speech before the Senate in Attack of the Clones.

You love your country, yet you hate everyone who differs in your opinion.

You love the Constitution, yet you deny it. Where in the Constitution does it say that one man should run the whole show, where does it say that opinions such as yours are the only ones allowed? The truth is you hate the Constitution.

You love life. Yet you support a war with a country whose inhabitants are killed by the thousands for the sole crime of having a tyrant for a leader.

You love God. Well good for you. Anyone in particular? Lemme guess, the Christian one right? And he approves of your unrelenting hatred of your fellow man right? Oh wait, he also approves of you judging others in clear violation of his law right? Here I thought God decided what was evil and what was good, glad we have you here apostle!

Yay.. in one breath you prove the depth of your hypocrisy! Good job!

*some = one; the quote about evil triumphing if good men do nothing.
