WE THE POEPLE, could make your job a lot easyer, just like this,
The Western Libtards can't see the Islamist Evils because the USA Public itself has become accustomed to give away its Decision-Making to politicians. Every 6 years, we vote for Senators, knowing that for the next 6 years we will make NO Decisions whatever in their fields (the notion of "Recalling" Senators given the millions of dollars supporting them is like believing in the Tooth Fairy), and similarly for President (4 years) and House of Representatives (2 years). The only nation in the world in which the Public votes for ALL Decisions (by Public Referendums) is Switzerland, where the Politicians are merely window-dressing. No nation comes even close to Switzerland. The result is that Switzerland neither Invades nor is Invaded, although it has an incredibly strong Military and is the most pro-gun-for-the-Public nation in the world.
Maybe the reason they don't see the evils of Islam is because they are no greater than the evils of Christianity!
Switzerland does not hold referendums for every decision, only on constitutional changes, and changes in the law by request. Never the less, they have the truest form of democracy in the world.
The gun laws are not so straight forward as all males are members of the militia and as such are armed. Ammunition is sealed and subject to frequent inspection.
When their period of service is complete they have the option of retaining their gun, after it has been returned and the automatic function removed.
The regulations for carrying guns are very strict.
Wow, yowzah, yowzah, yowzah...........did I really just read the following statement.......?
Holden says: "Maybe the reason they don't see the evils of Islam is because they are no greater than the evils of Christianity!"
Does anyone think that Switzerland would entertain the notion of national Islamic rule? Which is of course the underlying thrust and goal of all the crap the USA has endured the past 10 years? Exactly what Christian group/sect wants to rule the world and impose their dictates on all citizens, and has been terrorizing and killing and waging war internationally to accomplish their goal?
Sounds like it would be a great place to live, IF its basis were a Christian one.....which I have no idea....
If you understood the teachings of Jesus Christ, you would know that he wasn't about government at all. The infusion of Christianity into politics is a perversion of a noble religous philosophy.
Christianity is not a "noble religious philosophy"......true Christianity is something much more basic but ever-so-much more beautiful...
Politicizing Christianity is like pimping your spouse.
Not what I would call beautiful.
It's basis is more of a cheese/chocolate thing, plus they make these cool pocket knives that have spoons and can openers.
Not true. In fact, 5 nations actually border Switzerland.
I thought it was because they keep all the rich people's
money with no strings attached?
BTW--what happened to the TP people? THEY said they were for the people, gonna get them the jobs Obummer didn't.
JOBS JOBS JOBS vote for us, we promise. TAX CUTS CREATE JOBS, we promise.
UhHuh....more smoke and mirrors for the REAL "people" of the GOP: Corporations.
Her is a reply from another Group of mine,
Just a bit of trivia...the guards of the Vatican are only Swiss!
Switzerland can get away with it, but the U.S.A. cannot. We are just too big and our people just do not keep themselves informed enough to make their own decisions. Those of us... who post here and on other web sites are actually a minority in comparison to the great number of people who just sit by until something happens. If we did what Switzerland does we would have either a national or state public referendum every few days. The task of us voting would be next to impossible if not impossible.
As for the Military...Everyone serves and everyone has one or more guns in their homes, and in some cases they have even more. Isn't it strange that we never hear stories about Switzerland?
The trouble with America today is too many bleeding heart liberals and too many ultra conservatives. Normal people see to be hard to find. That's one of the reasons I left normal political parties to become an independent. I use to teach that belonging to a party was important to the proper working of our political system, but now I don't.See More
Like Charlie Sheen said: "Don't go to the middle. That's where the sheep and trolls live...you'll get slaughtered."
The Swiss - bankers to the criminals of the world. Beautiful country. Very conservative.
And check out Switzerland's healthcare!!:
"Swiss private insurers are required to offer coverage to all citizens, regardless of age or medical history. And those people, in turn, are obligated to buy health insurance."
Holy Mackeral......COMMUNISM!!!!
It's hard to follow what Oly is advocating.
It seems like he's a loyal patriot why disapproves of our constitutional representive form of government. It seems like he would prefer to directly have voters decide all policy by referendum. I am confused, because Oly strikes me as a teabagger type, and they generally dispute that the USA is a democracy and want to make it less of one by eliminating the popular election of Senators, and curtailing the rights of college students to vote. There have even been suggestions from teabaggers to restrict the vote to property owners.
So the suggestion that he likes a more democratic form of government like one that Chris pointed out has universal health care, is out of synch with the overall fascist philosophy Oly seems to embrace in other posts.
Your tactic seems to be baffle them with BS.
If I wasn't familiar with Oly, I would say the post was somehow intended to bait liberals. But Oly couldn't bait anything more complex than a hook.
I was going to say that, but, I just got out of the penalty box a while ago. Didn't think I would get away with, LOL
Huh. I was in the box myself. Didn't see you there.
Ron - Can you please put your helmut back on?
It's even worse than that--my mother says that the new gvr of Michigan(R) is going to make it so that he can fire people on the spot, and replace them with others of his choosing.
Maybe Ralph knows more about it....but that sickens me. Knowing what type of people he would grant himself the power to appoint.
