round and round it goes:
for conservatives it is bad to make a political argument about guns in the context of a documentary film--IF you do not support the politics of the film maker:
but it is just dandy is an administration markets an entire war on false pretenses across the medium of television.
so the conclusion i get from this kind of thread is--in conservativeland, anything goes from the right. they right can say and do and act as it wants and its supporters will go along without question.
when it comes to criticque, however, the opposite it the case: nothing can be true because everything critical is a lie lie lie.
quite the paragon of a democratic mode of interacting with information, arriving at informed decisions, participating in meaningful debate. no wonder most of you enjoy the more authoritarian elements of bushworld.
but wait-----you are free as individuals, no matter how unable to think critically you might be, because you have guns.
yes, in a pseudo-democracy american-style, in which everything is a commodity, what guarantees your "freedom" is possession of the magic commodity, a gun.
this american-style "freedom" has everything to do with fetishism.
