If we're to observe these standards going forward, we'll need to invite G. Gordon Liddy and the ghost of Timothy Leary in to this fine, moderate thread. They can have tea and crumpets with Karl Rove and Ted Kennedy. Kumbaiya, indeed. ~:grouphug:
It's fine for others to post, Lemurmania. Free speech and all that. However JAG and PanzerJager have not formally joined as yet.
Won't* ~;)Quote:

And Pape, cute eh, cool. If she meant me or my views, both is good, tell her thank you very much!
You guys and your clubs make me ill. Why do you need to coform to an agenda? Are you individuals or aren't you? Why don't you make up your own minds instead of waiting for some fatass politician to tell you what to think.
Moderates, conservatives, liberals, those are just dumb labels that mean nothing. Deomcracy is about people picking what is right in their own minds not what some ideology and party line says they would *also* believe in.
I believe that abortion should outlawed, I believe that gay people should be married, I believe that hard criminals should be executed, I believe that health care should be free for anyone who needs it. I don't give to craps about what political party that represents half those values. I only care about enforcing them.
You could always start your own party.

BP: Thanks for your opinion. I don't like "labels" either. However, with the growing conservatism in some threads, I feel we should have a place for more moderate views. The Conservative Club is already at Version II. Just introducing a little balance after the the Left Wing Club was started.
We have always had more Conservatives - and more vocal Conservatives - here than any other political ideology. Probably due to amount of US patrons who we have.Quote:

BP, I dont really like labels either, but that is what a moderate is all about.

Nice to see that you have joined the Moderate Club.I think we should have the best debates of these Clubs,because we can have different opinions on all subjects.Beiing a moderate means to me that you dont have to fallow any allready made isms but to make your own opinions on each subject.As for example im pro for war on Afghanistan,Against war on Iraq,Pro abortion untill certain limit,against US assault weapons bann,Pro weapons exporting bann on China and pro Social market economy as government. :bow:
The only reason we are at versiom two is that the mods left out the original one when we changed sites. I guess it contained to many posts. It was the largest non pinned thread here.Quote:

Balance was introduced with the founding of the conservative club. This is version 4 of the left wing club.Quote:

Have these Clubs turned into dual between JAG and Gawain?
No. AS has been stated these other clubs come and go and have never lasted very long. Jag does constantly stick his nose in the Conserrvative club. But thats the way the cookie crumbles. All are free to post there.Quote:

I was for the war in Afghanistan. I was oppossed to the war in Iraq not because we didnt have the right to do it but because I didnt think it would be worth it. Im against all abortion but am willing to compromise and allow it for the first trimester. Im against the assualt weapons ban ,Pro weapons exporting bann on China . I think there should be as little government as possible. Im a constitutionalist.Quote:

Im against war on Iraq because i think in order to benefit the war on terrorism.You should have striked Syria or Iran,because in my mind they ar the number one harbours of terrorists. :bow:
You left out Saudi Arabia ~;)
Isnt it bit unrealistic because they are your allies. ~;) But what ive read.Saudi-Arabia have infact done some terrorist chasing in their country.How would you think US should react if there would be an civil war in Saudi-Arabia?Because i think if Saudi-Arabia would be a democratic nation it would be very extrem islamist.Quote:

You people really are pitiful. Arent you all from TWC?Quote:
I think this thread should be re-named the "I'm Gawain of Orkney! Look at me look at me! Club"..
Shit, I answered yes to all of these ~:eek: Maybe Gawain was wrong... we'll just have to wait & see. Are you asking that non-members not post for the time being? We let Jag come into the Conservative Club and play with his pussy, I mean pet his cat, all he wants.Quote:

Im also opposed to a constitutional amendment on gay marrige and opposed to a total ban on abortion. I guess I really am a radical.
To be fair and honest, I'd put myself at a 7. I don't think I'm in the middle, and I really doubt any of you do. For some reason, our culture has come to believe that middle=normal=good, not just in politics, but everything. Look at how brainy kids and stupid kids get treated at school I disagree with all of this watering down. I never want to be average.Quote:

Hmmm.
There really is no club for me.
I'm socially very liberal and I make no bones about it, but for this reason the Conservative Club pretty much bars the doors when I come knocking.
On the other hand, being a rabid capitalist and labor union hater, my views are quite conservative when it comes to how I think governments should tax/spend, so the Liberal Club is really not the place for me either.
Finally, since none of my views are really "moderate" (at least by American standards), I don't really fit in the Moderate Club either.
I think the Backroom definitely needs more clubs :dozey:Quote:
