The battle over Obamacare is finally won.

not for me to say... one never knows.

It seems you disagree with Gerud, then.

 

[maineman]

So you say; but then, you're not very bright. I'm amused that you think most of the issues listed above are purely progressive ideals.

oh, but they ARE "purely progressive". They may not have always been congruent with the philosophies of any one political party, but they are definitely all "progressive." And passing them all has been a sign of progress.

OMG!!!

the horror!!!

 

[maineman]

If conservatism (mainly social conservatism) continues to be more and more "progressive", what behaviors will liberals seek to make "accepted mainstream concepts" that are now "absolute anathema", Commander?

[Big Money]

I constantly examine and challenge the continued efficacy of my beliefs.

Can you share an example of this self-examination and reassessment, Commander?

 

[Big Money]

asked and answered

Can't think of any new crusades for progressives, Commander?

No barriers of intolerance for them to overcome?

 

[maineman]

the death penalty. I used to be for it... then I grew to oppose it. How about you?

as I said, national health care remains a issue, as does gay rights. We'll win on those points eventually, imo.

....only through lies and falsifications.

I've never thought killing was a viable punitive solution, Commander, since judicial errors are possible and death irreversible.

Any other examples?

And then what?

Any other issues in the hopper, Commander?

 

[maineman]

legalizing pot, perhaps. I'll be happy to see those other ones make it to the finish line, and then, progressives will put their heads together and the next issues will begin to surface. Who knows, it might be time to run the ERA back up the flagpole and see who salutes?

No other behavioral agendas and crusades for "acceptance" for social progressives on your radar, Commander?

 

[maineman]

none on mine. what's on yours?
