Region: Libertatem
I would give Rush Limbaugh a shot but figuring out how to even listen to his radio show on his website is a challenge for me. Even after making an account I still can't find that days recording, or even previous ones.
I'd recommend Dan Carlin. His show, Common Sense is an essential listen for any liberty-loving man.

No no no...The Savage Nation.
Some moderate left-leaning guy at school wanted me to listen to this show called Morning Joe on MSNBC ( I like to call it MSLSD ) he mentioned how this guy, Joe, was a conservative republican congressman but I've never, and will never, turn my TV onto the MSLSD station and also, what is a republican doing on a liberal dominated network? Is this guy a sellout or something?
Also, John Stossel...a libertarian man if ever there was one.
I watch stossel quite a lot. I really like his show but I'm more of a Huckabee and O'Reily Factor guy myself.

Check out Niel Cavuto too.

The Five is pretty good too, it's much better than CNN's version of it which is called Unsolicited Advice. Now don't start hating on me just because I watch a bit of CNN. I just watch the Situation Room and Piers Morgan and one of the morning shows that is from 6:00am-7:00am because I love the people, especially Newt Gingrich, they interview but get schooled whenever they interview a true conservative.

Well they have 2 libs, 2 conservatives, and either 1 or 2 moderates who either lean left or right and then they debate on the top issues or breaking news of the day.

Second least-safe nation in Libertatem. Yes!
Anyway, the public school system is especially full of socialist indoctrination. I think it should be scrapped.
Enough of this! The Savage Nation.

Bob Beckel is the fat old dude in suspenders right? I'm not a big fan of him really. About the public school systems I got in an argument with a school teacher today because I supported our new governor's, Pat McCrory, plan to start a voucher system for the schools so that kids may go to private and charter schools on a voucher.
I might give ol' Savage a chance but until I do I'm sticking with Mark Levin. I just love his passion on issues and how he focused on the necessity of winning the senate.

Get ready for the Savage truth...
There is one thing that ditests me about the Mark Levin Show. They sometimes refer to him as "The Great One" which really turns me off that they try to place him above others. I mean if you want to respect the guy find another way than that.
All of you should check out a movie that was made by a guy named Dinesh D'Souza who produced the movie 2016 Obama's America.
Yes! That was a great documentary. Dinesh is also a very good Christian apologeticist and he worked in the Reagan administration, I believe.

I want all of you to know something. All of you supporters of Mitt Romney here, including myself, we still have a chance. You might be thinking that we don't but heres how we do. In the constitution it lays down that the electors go to vote on the second wednesday after the first monday of December. Well those results we all seen with Obama 303 electoral votes and Romney 206 ( still no word on Florida ) are just predictions! The electors can always vote for who ever they want especially if they realise that Romney is the best candidate. So even though it's a small chance it's still a chance so don't loose hope!
Yes, that was Dinesh and Obama's brother.
Thanks for the vote (lol) of confidence, ISA, but the electors are picked by their states. If the majority of a state votes Obama, they pick electors that are devout members of the Democrat Party. There have been just over 100 faithless (that is the term used to describe those who vote for whom they are not supposed to) electors in history, but not one of them has changed the course of the presidency against the prediction.
Post self-deleted by Liberosia.
Well we never had our first mixed president until 2008 so these electors just might make history by electing Romney. You make a great point but I've still got my blind hope.
Also, sorry for being the spoilsport. I do realize that the news of the Benghazi attack might sway at least a few electors to our cause, so we should be hopeful but not expectant.
I'll pray on it.
Is it awkward to you all that within 24 hours both Clinton and Patraeus resigned? We all knew Clinton was going to be out but I didn't suspect Patraeus.
You all want to check out something funny? Tonight on Piers Morgan he's getting Jesse Ventura, Grover Norquist, and others on there. It should be interesting to see what kind of crap stories Ventura has about the election.
Post by Abatael suppressed by a moderator.
Thats not the point though. The point is that these 2 would know a lot more than most people about the Benghazi attack and even though they dismiss that it has nothing to do with Benghazi you cannot rule it out.
Just got a conformation from Dave Myers of the Romney campaign that my package I ordered around mid October got shipped today on USPS First Class. This is great news but also 3 days ago I ordered another so I can be expecting that soon. Other great news is that my bumper sticker ( though I don't even own a car ) is here from the Romney campaign. In other news I realise that I post quite a lot on the message board and I can never stick on topic to long.
We gotta save America from the communists.
It's not only the commies we have to worry about, which I refer to as the Chinese as we are like 5 trillion in debt with them, we must worry about our socialist liberals with their marxist ideas here at home!!
That's what I meant when I said communists. The Chinese are not as big a threat as the Enemy Within.
I think it was Ben Franklin that said America's downfall will come from within. We conservatives must remain vigilant. We are being ridiculed by democrats,liberals, republicans, paleo-conservatives, neo-conservatives, conservatives, libertarians, and even the republicans but we must not let this take us down or we'll have already lost. Take John Boehner for example, he's already sold out on the idea of birparisanship with the liberals but I bet if we tried to compromise with Harry Reid, not that we'd want to though, he wouldn't give in he would fight!

I don't neccisarily care about Africa enough to read it. Besides their poor simply because their countries have no jobs for their people, little to no school, ignorance, and disease.

Ignorance because from what I've seen they refuse to progress, directed at the citizens of course. When they have diseas and we send the UN to come help them they don't trust us. Also quite frankly we should just leave them alone. America became a great country with all the problems it faced and those African countries can try to become great if they overcome their difficulties. I see the world as a sink or swim world and if you don't try hard and do your part then you'll sink.
Post by Abatael suppressed by a moderator.
With the America becoming great part we did it by ourselves. We didn't have a UN, thank God, that would screw around with us trying to help us progress we had to overcome our problems and create princibles that make us great.
Turns out Condemn The Dourian Embassy is just a joke of some kind. Just vote against, WA members.
Someone should condemn the Condemn the Dourian Embassy.
All right, I do believe that we should cut foreign aid (by a substantial amount), but we must all remember that we didn't win the Revolution by ourselves. We had help from our friendly neighbor: the French. What can we learn from this? Assistance should be given militarily to countries/rebel groups that seek freedom (real, capitalist freedom).
I think the whole issue of foreign aid should be settled like this but first I want to place an example. Israel is America's greatest ally and Ron Paul wanted to end all foreign aid in part of his budget plan. Now it would save us on spending a whole lot and I don't want to give developed countries money but in Israel's case where it's constantly at war it does need foreign aid. We shouldn't be giving aid to places like Egypt though that hate our guts out, and we give foreign aid to all these countries that shelter and sympathise with terrorists. So my own opinion on foreign aid is that if we have a strong ally that we've been friends with for years, such as Israel, France, and Britain, then under civil unrest or personal war time we should provide them with limited aid. It makes no sense to me that we give billions of dollars to middle eastern countries that hate us and help terrrorists.
^ That reminds me of the question I sometimes get about foreign aid here on this site. I choose the answer of giving foreign aid to nations that could give us access to their resources. It makes no sense to just give money away without any benefit in return of some kind.
If Marco Rubio ran with Romney, they would get a lot of Hispanic votes.
What makes me sick about the Republicans is they're all (sorry, most) in favor of existing social programs. Marco Rubio has even praised Medicare and a lot of Republicans criticize Obama's cuts to Medicare in the Affordable Care Act. What I'm afraid of is there will be no political will to repeal Obamacare, just as there has never been enough political will to repeal Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid. We need to keep the cuts to Medicare Obama made, if not expand them, and repeal the rest of that bill. Cut Medicaid back to what it was before Obamacare got instated, and then procede to take a butcher's knife to it. At the same time we are cutting all this spending, we need to make that 40%+ of Americans start paying taxes (i.e. the income tax and eliminate "subsidies" for them). Even still, we need economic growth, the Republicans should push for reductions in the capital gains tax and the corporate tax (ours is currently among the highest in the world at 35%; Romney wanted to cut it down to 25% and Obama says he'll cut it to 28%), but that's not enough to get the stimulus we need for our economy to generate more revenue. In order to become more competitive, we need to roll back the regulations while simultaneously cutting the corporate tax to below 20% for the time being. We have to recognize, other countries actually subsidize their industries instead of taxing them to death. We have to realize that the real strength of this nation is business, small, big, and medium business. Bring the businesses back to America.
Even though I, a conservative republican, am not in favor of a lot of social programs I believe that medicare is neccisary but it could be fixed by voucherising it like in the Paul Ryan budget. Then for social security we need to establish the Chilean model of private savings accounts that I support quite a lot.
@ Independant states of America.- Is that even the kind of aid people are talking about? Helping Isreal is much the same as the aiding of anti-Communist governments in the cold war, or even sending aid to places like Bosnia post-cold war- its the money to fight, to re-build, and eventually become a viable and lucrative member of the world community. I don't agree with Tonakistan, in that his concept sounds much like Dollar Imperialism, and Communist phrase I know, but one of the most reviled aspects of American foreign policy. Its what China are doing, for Gods sake! Instead, Western nations should seek to assist true developing countries, on an, if you will, 'delayed' quid pro quo basis. We want to set places like India and Isreal, hell, even South Africa, among others, up as trading partners, and it would be far easier to do so if we were not poring money into the black hole that is Africa. And this would as well, I feel, assist Africa in the long term as well. The number of members of the African 'intelligencia' that become bureaucrats and aid workers, compared to doctors and entrepreneurs, is what is fundamentally crippling Africa's economy and health. Meanwhile, of course, food aid and the fixation by the west on keeping cute little children alive, while often basically ignoring the adults, and child bearers they become, keeps the population at an artificially high, and staggeringly mortal level. Much as Abateals article may say that post colonial Africa was primitive, the one thing it did have was a number of people (small), and a style of civilisation correspondent to that (hunter-gatherer or fisherman-gatherer), that was enough for the land to support. Charity starts at home, and should bloody well stay there. The only thing going out should be money or goods that see a return, sooner or later, of equal or greater value.
The second part of my message was a plan to stimulate (sorry, invite) business growth, production, and our overall economy. What do y'all think?

Like when the new Batman movie came out and the villan's name was Baine he thought it was a tie to Mitt Romney's company BAIN Capitol.

I don't see a relevant comparison.
Post by Abatael suppressed by a moderator.
Just because it sounded like it was no reason to create a conspiracy about it, now I really don't want to argue with you.
Post by Abatael suppressed by a moderator.
He hasn't talked about it in months, like I said he made it an issue when the new Batman movie came out you can always google it and derive an opinion from what you read.
Rush Limbaugh is crazy, Bain was a batman villain for 20 years, long before bain capital.
And what was with calling that woman a "whore" for pushing for state funded birth control last year. He's a real piece of sh!t he is - along with his conspiracies about Obama
Bush makes the modern American political right look stupid. I'd vote for Bush again a million times before Santorum, Palin or Romney, those people are a racist, sexist, joke.
Obama is allot like bush and I like that about him, he is no "socialist" just another politician that panders to corporate interests and big banks. At least he's not liberal enough to reverse allot of Bush's policies - even if he stands with Clinton it is a illusion to "seem" liberal.
The stepping up of drone strikes has been very important under Obama, we can now murder terrorists without setting foot in a foreign nation and that's way better than how the "right" wants to do it by actually invading nations like Iran and Syria.
Anti-Soc, your statements above are so blatently wrong it hurts (except perhaps the Rush Limbaugh one above).
Then you will correct me? What is "wrong" about my opinion?!
Are you denying the drone strikes are important?
The fact that Bush was better than the current opposition to Obama?
Or that Bane from batman is older than Bain capital, Mitt Romney's company?
You can't possibly agree that it's okay to call someone a "whore" for inquiring into state supported birth control!?!
Well if you didn't go around having sex and practiced abstinence then you wouldn't really need birth control so Rush had a point even if it was rude.
"The character's origin was in Batman: Vengeance of Bane #1 (January 1993), and was created by Chuck Dixon, Doug Moench, and Graham Nolan. Bane has been one of Batman's more physically and intellectually powerful foes."
Founded in 1984, Bain Capital pioneered a consulting-based approach to private equity investing, partnering with management teams to build great"
I was wrong about Batman, but whatever, it's not like in 1993 DC comics was knowingly sabatoging a political platform that wasn't to exist for 20 years.
That's just silly.
Well if you didn't go around having sex and practiced abstinence then you wouldn't really need birth control so Rush had a point even if it was rude."
Rude? How about just plain dumb! I'm a married woman! Why wouldn't I inquire about birth control?
Is sex only for reproduction?!? No! It is gods gift to those who are married!
Listen lady I have a preference and I'm able to express it just as you do. I don't see how sex is a gift to those who are married but I'm not married. In this day in time though when you discuss sex we think of reproduction, when people discuss birth control we think of reproduction.
For the amount of taxes that they steal from us you would think that they would help good law abiding citizens of this country! Birth control for those that are married is not a radical concept guys...
when you discuss sex we think of reproduction, when people discuss birth control we think of reproduction."
What? Plz clarify
I don't want children anymore so why should I not be able to love my husband?
Don't call me "lady", that isn't very polite. I am a nation just like you guys on this game.
If you want birth control go buy it don't expect government to help you with it; although during the last weeks of Obama's campaign all he talked about was contreception.
If you want birth control go buy it"
I make over 75,000 a year and pay nearly 25% of that in tax, what do I get out of it?
I help the poor, I build jails, and fund a police department I don't even use! Why shouldn't I ask for something for my tax dollar?!
Why are you guys ganging up on me? I thought that this region was about "anti-communism" not "fitting in with everyone else having the exact same opinion"!
We're a region of mainly conservatives or right-leaning libertarians. The majority of us have the same opinion.
"during the last weeks of Obama's campaign all he talked about was contreception."
Yes, but that was the right to choice! I'm not even talking about that, I don't agree with abortion (only in rape and incest) but how about a little preventative care!!!

Thanks for the update tips but I've been here a while now, I know what the region is about, I just didn't know it was infested with a$$holes projecting their opinions on others and that I would be degraded for sharing mine.

I think that for people who pay huge amounts in tax they should get some relefe in other area's where they do not spend it.
For 1 example I used I pay for jails and never went to jail or know anyone who did!
Why shouldn't I be allowed to have the government make my taxes spent more for what suits me!
That's the real issue and birth control can go with that (to be supplied to people who do not use other tax paid for services.)
People who don't drive cars are still taxed to build roads, that's just stupid! The gov should give them a tax credit or other service that suits them.
Like do you support it being legal to use?
Yes
Do you think the government should provide it for free?
In some cases where someone is not using other services that they're paying for through heavy taxation
Do you think the Catholic Church should provide it in thier insurance?
No of course not!
Post by Abatael suppressed by a moderator.
I've explained it using "jails" as an example 3 times above....
If I'm paying 25,000 dollars in tax each year, what do I get back?
Roads to drive on? (what if I don't drive?!!)
Jails to support? (what if I never went to jail?)
Public Schools? (what if I want to home school)
There should be a government "kick back" to people who "do not use the services provided by taxes"
I don't know how to say it anymore clear guys do you not agree?
You are fine paying for things you don't use? And getting nothing back to help YOU and your specific needs as an individual?
