Just Plain Wrong

Sure, but you're saying all selfish views are equal and that's not the case.

No. Bias makes some beliefs appear selfish, and others not so. Thus, all beliefs are selfish, or all beliefs are not selfish. There must be absolutes in order to erase the obfuscation of bias.

Indeed, if you use your child to spread ANY belief, and that child has no idea what it is, from communism to capitalism, then it is selfish and wrong.

Here. Let's have an example. With all due respect, you are "very liberal."

According to your pov, will you list any political views that are not selfish, and which ones are?

It has nothing to do with selfish and not selfish. Your question equated using your child to regurgitate hate speech as the same as what this mother did. I pointed out that's not true.

So if you told your kid to stand up for prayer in class even though they didn't want to (in your words exploitation) it's equivilent to having your kid stand up for beleifs in racial superiority? That the two are equal because of the parental coercien?

Basically it's exploitation, just not that bad?

Agreed. Though, some liberals would have you believe that the child full understood what he was doing, and did so willfully.

And some conservatives would like you to believe they can read minds.

Well, most of them claim to have a direct line to God, so maybe they can.

I don't personally consider wanting equal treatment to be selfish.

The subject of the thread that I "started" concerned a shy timid little boy and the selfish actions of his uncaring mother.

But, I should have known that the homosexual radicals jump on any opportunity to legitimize immorality and promote their agenda.

So in that context___I'm guilty as charged.

Apparently one of those 'convenient' Libertarians. If it's convenient for her to believe in Libertarian positions, she will. However, if it isn't, she won't.

Bachmann's not to blame for that mother's decisions. I agree that the little boy wasn't "traumatized," but he was exploited by his parent, not by the candidate.

Um, okay, but Bachmann's still the asshole.
 
My mommy's gay???:lamo

But mommy, if you're gay then how was I conceived?

It is not neccessary to be psychic or spiritually connected to see that the shy timid little boy is obviously uncomfortable about the awkward situation his mother has placed him after considering that type B personalities rarely place themselves in such positions.

It's called "Common Sense"__Google it!

As far as I know, Michelle Bachmann is a loving mother of 4 children, who unselfishly opened her home to 23 foster children in distress untill each of them could find a home or safely returned to their families.

You prefer filth to cleanliness__The gutter to the walk__You not only condone but celebrate immorality while condeming morality and judge the good as being evil for their intolerance of perversion and simply trying to make the world a better place.

What have you done lately?!

Good for her. That doesn't necessarily have anything to do with her political lean.

I was making a defensive comment of an unrelated matter to an offensive comment of an unrelated matter.

I thought that was obvious__Pay attention Madlib__I don't have time to hold your hand and walk you through every post.

Of course they don't. That of course explains why you have pitched both a fit and a tent in this thread. Seriously, you have a very bad habit of buying your own BS.
