This just in: Dems Back Saddam Hussein in New Poll.
Let’s put the numbers out there:

Forty-one percent of Democrats gave Saddam a thumbs up, while just 34 percent said Iraq is better served with the murderous dictator gone, reports the New York Post.

41 percent want Saddam back in power, 25 percent doesn’t know/care, 34 percent doesn’t. To me, it says that Democrats are so screwed up it’s sad.
How could anyone support a man who is documented as killing, raping and torturing hundreds of thousands of his own people? Their hatred of Bush seems so deep that they would do anything to see him out of office. Including selling their souls to the Devil. Which is exactly what they are doing when they choose Saddam over Bush.
It’s a sad state of affairs, really, to see such a party go quickly down the tubes. How could anyone do such a thing? I just don’t understand it.

From FOX News and Britt Hume’s Grapevine:

A century-old painting commemorating the Pilgrims’ landing in Provincetown, Massachusetts, no longer hangs in the town hall after city officials voted that its was discriminatory against women. The Boston Globe reports that town Selectwoman Sarah Peake said she found it “disturbing” that the large oil painting — depicting the Pilgrims voting on the Mayflower Compact — didn’t include a single woman. Despite the fact that only male colonists actually signed the historic document, three of the four selectmen agreed to remove the painting, which had hung in the town hall for at least 60 years.

Things like this care deconstructing our history. If we take out the things that we don’t agree with, then we lose part of our history, and the ability to understand what really was going on there. If we take paintings like this down, what about the painting of the Constitutional Convention? There were nothing but men there as well.
Women held no power at that time, and that should be remembered so we know how far we have truly traveled. Today, despite the failure of the Equal Rights Act, women serve in the highest levels of corporate America, and the government itself. To take away things like our history will only doom us to repeating it. The lessons are there, will we not profit from them?

This web page gives you good examples of points to bring up (and what not to bring up) when trying to reason with a Liberal who’s hot button issue is Gun Control.
You won’t convince them that gun control is a bad thing, it’s too deep in their psyche. You can, however, by hitting them with irrefutable facts cause them to do a reboot, blink and walk away, looking for someone to reinforce their silly ideas. It will also help convince someone on the fence to come over to your side of the argument.
Things are right in the world when the government fears its citizens, especially the armed ones. If I wasn’t prone to suicidal thoughts, I would love to have my guns back. But one must take life as it comes.
