Republican - Conservative Thread: Because we're evil and conquering the world!
Not to name any names, but some of us just like to pretend to be evil. (Okay, fine, I wanna name names. *cough*sum1*cough* )
From the last thread's opening post (with required modifcations), compiled by aldebaran & Katis: Welcome to the 9th Republican/Conservative thread. If you're a newbie, please don't feel intimidated to post your thoughts, or even just stop in to say hello. All posters, whether you be conservative or liberal are welcome as long as you are not here to antagonize or start arguments. ~*~ In case you have the time or the inclination, here is the last thread for your reading pleasure. Please note the below information on how we all can support our troops. I think this info should be included at the start of each thread. If you know of any other legitimate organizations that you think should be added to the list, please let me know! There's Operation USO Care Package. Due to increased security, people are no longer allowed to send care packages to "Any Soldier." For a $25 donation, the USO will send a care package to one of the troops. You can also "adopt" a specific service member to pray for by visiting this website. (Note: This link doesn;t work for me, is there an update link?) There are probably quite a few service members who do not receive a lot of mail, if any at all. The mail that they do receive gets to them very slowly. If you would like to correspond with any of the troops, you can visit Operation Military Support for more info (i.e. to request the name of someone with whom you can exchange letters). Support the Troops has (what I think is) a unique way to show support for our troops. You can donate books for the libraries on bases and on ships. There is more info on the site, but think about it - it must get pretty boring out there at sea with not much to do during the down time. (I get a 404 error for this-?) Operation Shoebox is a good site as well. If you already have someone overseas to whom you can mail a care package, it has suggestions on what to include. If you dont know of anyone but want to contribute items for a care package, it has information on how you do that as well. I am not trying to specifically plug any of the above. I just think it is great that there are so many different ways that we can show our support for the men and women who defend us and protect our country. ~*~ Other good sites I've run across: Honest Reporting Awesome Seminars with Neil Lazarus (Neil's a nice guy) Palestinian Media Watch Middle East Media REsearch Institute (MEMRI) (I'm a bit of a one-issue girl, amn't I? [img]smilies/lol.gif[/img] I promise, I do have opinions on other topics as well. I'm just not *quite* as vocal.) Sites my sister likes: Little Green Footballs Instapundit Google News (compiles news from hundreds of sources) Any additions? Ohmygoodness. I can't believe I forgot Bob. Here's Bob, our beloved mascot: [img]smilies/elephant.gif[/img] [ 12-03-2003: Message edited elisheva ] [ 01-01-2004: Message edited elisheva ] __________________

Maybe it should be "Because we're idiots who can't start a thread properly"? [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Yay, new thread. elisheva, do you want to grab the intro from the last thread and stick it into your first post, though so we can have everything saved in there?

I am not evil, though choosing to use the title "conservative" might make others assume that I am (cough*somelibs*cough). I do think I would make a kick-ass world ruler, though. If only I had the motivation.....
And now for something completely different - a post from Newsmax!! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] It is a long piece that was written last year, but I think it is a good one and contains some valid points. I would be interested in hearing what you have to say after reading it (you being the regular posters for the right-leaning thread). That is, if you can take a break from your plots and schemes for world domination [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] Quote:

It looks weird, the whole top is clogged with out threads, [img]smilies/lol.gif[/img]
Bah, don't want to go to class or work. And my ankle hurts [img]smilies/pout.gif[/img] Edited because I didn't see aldebaran's post. Awesome article, awesome, awesome. I am going to send it to some of the people in my CR group. It's so true. And lack of motivation is fine, that's what minions are for [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] [ 12-03-2003: Message edited Katis ] __________________

<aldebaran consults her dusty "How to Become a Dictator in 7 Easy Steps" manual written by [img]smilies/elephant.gif[/img] Bob> Ah, there it is. [img]smilies/elephant.gif[/img] Bob states that ankle pain - the worst of all physical pains, mind you - not only gives you a pass on work and class but also makes you Queen of the Southern Hemisphere for the day. There you go. Straight from the elephant's trunk! [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] [ 12-03-2003: Message edited aldebaran ] __________________
