18. The irony of the Republicans "moral supremecy" is this
Edited on Sun Feb-08-09 10:04 AM by TWiley
They want to legislate personal morality of the individual, and take a hands-off approach to the legislation of the morality of capitalism.

They are so worried about who is having sex who and how they do it, but overlook the white collar screwing of an entire nation and how that is done.

on edit: furthermore they call their belief "freedom and liberty" and accuse democrats of government infringement into the lives of the individual. Ass backwards practice of ideals as always
