Hey - effwit moron. Care to enlighten the world on how "liberals" want to cede
"sovereignty"? Wait - are you one of those ****wits that's convinced there's a
Trilateral Commission plotting a OneWorld future?

Geeze....

I'll take brain cells for $1,000, Alex.

The answer is:
You'd think the right could come up with someone with a couple of
functional brain cells...

Ding! Who are the ones that aren't cross-posting their political views to
recreation groups in Usenet?

Let me play on your words

When I see a small segment of the population, notably wealthy
conservatives who believe they compose a silent majority, willing to
cede the sovereignty of the US and liberty of the masses at the
expense and detriment of future generations, I must oppose them.

Wow.

Peace

"Silent majority" ??????????.

There is no such thing as a silent majority. It is a contradiction in
terms. Most political majorities, ( those who win), are around about
fifteen to twenty percent of the total possible, and are anything but
silent. "Vociferous" would be an understatement.

All you need is time and money, and a lot of dumb arseholes who are willing
to support you, even when you bull****.

What a terrible waste of resources, and not only in America.

It is quite immaterial which particular label your arsehole of choice
happens to be wearing at the time, ( this too is variable).

Thinking is going out of fashion it seems.

Believe me, Mike. I do not believe in a silent majority. I was
playing on Strider's idiotic words.

Back in the Nixon days, he kept on referring to a "silent majority" to
further his legislative agenda. Frequently on American talk radio,
chiefly the Limbaugh, Hannity and O'Reily show, and also in
conservative print media, the conservatives refer to a silent majority
to justify their policies.

So, I'm with you. I agree that it is a contradiction of terms. It is
something that the conservatives here in the US use, as "fact" to
continue to degrade our country and world.

Remarkably kind of you, nice that you are "with me", ( although it will do
neither you nor I any good), and I have nothing against your support.
Unfortunately, it is quite wasted, as I was quite serious when I said that I
did not give a ****. I really don´t. I know very little about American
politics, (at least in modern times), and my ambitions in this regard are
more than modest, in fact, non-existent.

I hope to have a reasonably happy life, with enough to eat and drink, a bit
of fishing now and again, maybe get to know a nice lady ( again, although I
consider it unlikely, no man can be so lucky more thn once in his life, but
hope still springs eternal), have a drink, go for a dance, touch someone I
love, enjoy myself, etc etc etc. Fill in the blanks as you please. I doubt
they will differ much from my wishes and hopes, certainly not in substance.

Who rules the world, is a matter of complete indifference to me. In fact, I
have nothing but contempt for anybody who wishes to. As long as they leave
me in peace. They can do or think as they like, It has very little bearing
on my existence, and in a remarkably short space of time, they will be just
as dead as I.

What "strider" or all these other silly buggers have to say, is of
absolutely no consequence. Anybody who gets that excited about ideology or
party politics, irrespective of which, or where, is to be pitied. Argument
or discussion is totally superfluous. You are not going to convince him. and
he is not going to convince you, so why waste the time and effort?

If you enjoy attempting to score points, or "scintillating" as a wit, then
go ahead. Why not? There are doubtless worse ways of spending time and
effort.

Basically, I am here ( wherever "here" happens to be) to discuss
fly-fishing. Eveything else is either a bonus, or a pain in the arse.

Not a big deal really.

It is of course nice when somebody agrees with you. However meaningless it
might be

Well, if not a silent majority, certainly a ****ed off majority. Have
you noticed that the predominately leftwing Dems have lost control of
the Presidency, the House of Rep, the Senate, the Governorships?

Not too bad for what you consider a few rightwing fringers.

expense and detriment of future generations, AND BELIVE THEY DESREVE IT, I
must oppose them.

I'd settle for just exposing them for what they are, leftwing
socialists, and relegating them to the trash bin of US politics.

Or we could send them to France.

Strider

Wow. Another thoughtful post from the gooney right (rolling eyes yet
again - they are starting to hurt).
