Out of Normal: New York? Boston? SanFran? LA? HAHAHA!

New York? Boston? SanFran? LA? HAHAHA!

To the cities which traditionally bring high rent prices and high real estate prices, I laugh at you. Wanna hear about some expensive Chicago real-estate?? Here you go... How about Prarie House??? 1.8 million for a 2 bedroom condo...

I have decided, among all other things, that I am going to be a wealthy city dweller. At 33, I may be starting a little late, but that is what I want to do.

(not about this post, or designed to get into a fight, but..) you list brutal honesty and then sean hannity?????? Being utterly one sided and cleanly dividing America into "moral" and "liberal" people is patheticly childish and far far from 'honest', unless you put that there as a joke or an art statement I can't see how you believe that killing our troops for a reason that isn't 'brutally honest' can be justified, christ, if you listen to Hannity and limbaugh you'll notice how they completely don't mention Bush and rummy and the ongoing war at all any more, remember how that was all they talked about for months and months, now it's that basketball player and how gays are immoral, but some how sacrificing good American lives so Haliburton can get another contract is not worth talking about anymore? for shame!!!!!!!!

did you make that up yourself or did that come in your daily democrat talking points memo?

who said i was a democrat? If you listen to hannity and limbaugh you might think anyone who disagrees with their point of view MUST be a democrat or at least a 'liberal' ooh that's a bad word because only white men have rights (don't forget that liberals gave everyone else rights and if you are anti-liberal you are by hannity/limbaugh style generalisation a racist and sexist person). actually my beef is that 200+ of our troops have been killed so far and there is no legitimate reason, forget 'liberation' that's not in the constitution, but it is in the law of the usa that allowing us citizens to come to harm especially through a conspiracy (which by definition is what Cheney et al participated in) is TREASON. TREASON motherfucker. who cares about morals and that bullshit our people are dying and they will not admit they lied and conspired to take Iraq, is it any wonder hannity/limbaugh do't talk about this anymore??? face it, on this issue they are dead wrong and will be punished.

Hanity doesn�t divide the people. It is the individual people who clearly choose a side through their own free will, he mearley labels them to clear the water. If your a liberal and a-moral by conservative Christian standards "which is the American norm at this time" what�s the harm in accepting your label. The truth of the matter is American morality is based culturally and politically in Christian fundamentalism. That�s just the way it is. If you don�t believe in what the majority of Americans believe in then you are in the minority. If you are a minority politically and socially speaking and you act on your moral convections that are different from the norm then by definition you are ill-moral i.e. your moral and political and social standards are different from the norm. The fact is if you choose to live by different standards politically socially and culturally most people will not embrace your ideology if they disagree with it. Its not that it�s wrong it�s just not popular. Liberals shouldn�t be so defensive and ashamed of what they are. They should realize that they aren�t going to convert the fundamentalists and stick to converting the people who should be liberals, namely draft dodgers, senators who drown their mistress while they are drunk. and ex presidents who lie to the public, congress and their families......not Nixon, im talking about slick Willie. The weak minded and the Morally corrupt that�s the true stomping ground of liberals. Don�t give me any of that crap about the ACLU defending the rights of the oppressed There only money hungry lawyers that where afraid to get real jobs. Trust fund runs out...hummn what should I do??? I know I'll go to Harvard and get a Law degree and champion the rights of the oppressed. oh I left at the gay cub scout leaders...they need protection also.... protection to butt rape cub scouts... That�s what�s wrong with Liberals they forget about the rights of the innocents and worry about the corrupt few that scream the loudest. crutch

Ok, ok. Yes, I am a fan of Hannity because he provokes me to think. I am also a fan of the Dalai Lama. My political viewpoints have very little to do with either of these people. I have many conservative viewpoints and many liberal ones as well.

point taken, but then why does the catholic church get a free pass from many of the 'conservatives' out there? is there not anything more immoral than raping little boys who are put in your trust then allowing them to do it again??? seems to me that if people who really care about morallity were in power they would punish those people first, yet they don't, so don't say 'liberals' are the ones 'condoning' immorallity when conservatives are just as guilty of letting it slide. Don't you think Ashcroft, if he was really concerned about morallity would be all down the throats of these scumbag bishops who, by their actions. commited the worst form of immorallity we have ever hear of? (not to mention all the children and young adults killed for no good-enough reason in Iraq, somehow 'conservatives' manage to find murder somehow ok in that situation, remember that we specificaly went there because the leaders of the usa said beyond a show of a doubt we were facing an imminent threat, most of them of course skipped out of fighting for their country in vietnam too, and quite frankly how obvious does it have to be before conservatives can accept that it WAS for oil, all the evidence leads to that, and how many troops will die while conservatives try to wiggle out of what will be an obvious conclusion. what a bunch of fucking hypocrits, i spit on your false morallity.

sorry, just venting, nothing personal, unlike the narrow us vs them of talk radio i do believe that we all have our conservative and liberal sides, and thank you for being a good sport about this!

Posted by: daz at August 4, 2003 10:59 PM

Nothing personal taken at all. This is a free forum for discussion and intelligent thought. To me, liberalism nor conservatism would be something to look upon with disdain nearly as much as a person who blindly meanders through life stumbling upon narcissism and accepting the status quo. Daz, you are very welcome here, and are obviously an intelligent person. I have heard about you through Steve-o, and we'll have to all get together sometime to rant and rage. If you can ever make it over here to b-town, we'll get together with Crutch, Nose, Steve-o, and the rest of the mal-contents for many pints of Guiness.

i didn't say you were a democrat...why do you think that if you got a talking points memo and regurgitated it, that makes you a democrat? oh, and crutch...that is probably the most intelligent dissertation i've ever heard come out of you. i am impressed.

Posted by: nose at August 5, 2003 11:42 AM

daz...traditionally, catholics are democrats; that is until they went all right-to-abortion crazy, and the true catholics went conservative. you, obviously not being a catholic, don't know shit about what goes on in the catholic church. i am, and i do; and i'd definitely not call it a free pass. the church in rome has gone apeshit over this problem and their lack of preceived direction in the press is a direct result of rome telling the US catholic church to clean the shit up, and the responsibility for this isn't going to flow uphill, got it?! you have no idea.

Posted by: nose at August 5, 2003 11:46 AM

oil...ha! i suppose you thought '91 was about oil as well.

Posted by: nose at August 5, 2003 11:48 AM

did some one mention a pint of beer???? Is broch buying???

Posted by: crutch at August 5, 2003 04:01 PM

Yeah, Ill buy the first round....

Posted by: Broch Gerling at August 5, 2003 05:05 PM

i'm in on that beer too!

Posted by: nose at August 6, 2003 07:31 AM

The ability to enjoy beer is directly proportional to how many children you have. In that case, Ill let you guys drink my beer, you probably need it.

Posted by: Broch Gerling at August 6, 2003 10:43 AM

listen here; i know how to enjoy beer and have always known such.

Posted by: nose at August 6, 2003 12:27 PM

My bad, I agree. Our enjoyment of beer has always been paramount.
