Attention: Conservative Obsessive Captains

[CrimsonEclipse]

So a topic about pilots annoying talking about politics and religion naturally degrades into a topic about politics and religion.

Neither party wants to address the impending budget problems caused by the last time the liberals implemented craddle to grave social programs.....Social Security and Medicare are going to bankrupt us.....

The Republicans won't stand up to the craddle to grave crowd....and the Democrats want to create even more entitlement programs.....

We are spending money we don't have......

i dont like entitlement programs either- but look in the mirror- we are in a war and you argue for lowering taxes? it is not wise to fund a war on credit- but cold, hot, or 100 year war-repubs have a history of doing just that- then preaching to joe america who over-extends himself....the hypocrisy would be funny if you all werent serious.

this is a bit more appropriate of a forum than the flight deck dont you think?

I voted for Ron Paul....He and I are both ready to pull out of Iraq......I'm tired of nation building.....but that extends well past Iraq.....I'm also concerned about the threat of radical Islam......

I would limit the federal govt. to military and courts....and a few other issues....But I would eliminate much of the federal programs.....

Here....cockpit.....crew lounge....If it's important any venue is appopriate....People don't seem to have very thick skin these days.....Stand up and say you disagree if you don't like it....

Sorry but I'm not into talking about JayLo or American Idol.....What's wrong with talking about important issues?

"Second, you and I would probably be just fine without government involvement in our lives, but others can't say the same. Some people need a little more help than others."

Of course no need for the gov't to regulate you. Other people though, who may in your opinion be stupid or reckless or who simply hold views different than yours, should be closely monitered and regulated. They are dangerous. If those kind of people are allowed freedom no good can come of it.

America was established with freedom for all and with our best efforts she may again be free.

If you need govt to help you then, you really ought not to get out of bed. You may hurt yourself flushing the toilet without porper supervision. Why would anyone want a govt that screws up everything there to try and regulate their lives?

 

[rtwo]

PCL 128 does not need the gov't to regulate him. But he knows that others need to be regulated.

Why is it at every election we get 2 canidates thrust at us and we the voters get to pick which one stinks the least. I for one am tired of voting for the least of two evils. When do I get to vote for someone I belive in?

Ummmm.....isn't that the American Way? On the way to the American Dream?

Do you realize that in the year 2007 the Earth was cooler than it has been for the last 50 years. Do you also realize the polar ice caps actually have grown in the last 2 years?

This is Fact not Al Gore Fiction !

You mean like this?

Another thing to add to the list of things not to talk about in the cockpit.

That's the choice of computers. For all you Mac people... I selected a software/hardware package because it was the best available for what it does. This software only runs on Windows. So I built a Windows machine to run it on. It will not run on a Mac running Windows in boot-camp. So, I will not be buying a Mac. So please stop trying to tell me "anything you can do on a PC you can do on a Mac" because I can't. And while I'm ranting... I don't want an iphone (apple violated a trademark from cisco with the name) or an ipod. I'm really happy with my LG phone and my samsung mp3 player. So PLEASE STOP TRYING TO SELL ME ON HOW GREAT YOUR APPLE STUFF IS! I'm a grown adult and do my own research before I buy something or vote for someone.

Apple is most definitely the only way to go. Someday you may get enlightened. And Iphones rock.

As I said I bought a specific application to run a business with and it is the best one on the market and it will NEVER run on a mac. So I will never buy a mac. I don't care if the iphone rocks or not. I need a phone not a rock.

Way back when, I wanted Ross Perot.

Fox clearly has the best looking news gals on TV. I'd watch CNN or MSNBC all day if they had the same eye candy.

Ohh that Lori Dhue.... grrrrrr.

Lori doesn't work at FOX any more.
