It was a lie by (go figure) Costello, who (duh) happens to be a Republican State Senator (or whatever). Not you. Although I do implicitly blame the N-J, in their newly christened Teabagger-Libertarian philosophy of perpetuating that lie. This was, as opposed to the last piece you published from the N-J a news story, not an opinion piece.
As a purveyor of news stories, the N-J was remiss in not checking what was quoted as fact (but was, in fact, a lie) by Costello (will he be burning in Reorganized Mormon hell for this lie? Ask him at the next 9/12 meeting.)
But...like Fox News...that's the way they roll now.
The News Journal has been liberal for as long as I can remember. When did they turn conservative?
But I don't think you are reading the story correctly if you think the 19% was a quote of Costello's. That's not the way I read it. That was the writer of the article.
Incorrect. I'm consistent in believing that the 1st Amendment only applies to people, not corporations. I have no idea what you mean about the 2nd Amendment, but that's another discussion.
Funny how you should mention "bridge". Was that a Palin-inspired Freudian Slip? Let's put it this way: If a Libertarian candidate tells you "Vote for me and I'll shut down the government.", you'd vote for him.
I don't understand why a group of people so literal in their philosophy are so obtuse in their philosophy! Do you really think politicians shouldn't promise anything to get elected?
I may have a bit of the idealist in me after all, but I think the promises that politicians make should be promises to be good stewards over the resources they have responsibility for and to promise things that benefit the entire body politic. Your view seems to be that it's OK to buy votes. Now who benefits the most from that? Obviously the people who sell their votes benefit some, but the politicians are the main beneficiaries.
Of course you don't.
The answer to that question is in here too.
I'm still waiting on a response to this:
There wasn't a question in that, so I'm not sure what kind of response you are looking for.
