Scott Walker's budget cuts $5.7 million from runoff pollution remedies

Typical liberals, thinking that throwing money at an issue is the only and most effective way to solve the issue.

If other places didn't need the money, why not just cut directly from those places? I think because it's all political promises with no reality to back it up.

1/6th of the budget cut and no impact. Clearly you feast on tripe.
I am amazed you can type with your head in the sand.

The concept of tolerance from our liberal friends continually amazes me

It appears they aren't sure they will need to, but they know where to go if they do
 
Only to be dwarfed by the intolerance in the Republican platform on display every day in the USA .

The Republican platform leans toward liberty. The Democrat platform preaches tolerance but leans toward tyranny and the eradication of dissent aka intolerance

Oh god, more of this crap. Calling you out for saying something stupid is apparently now "intolerant." New guy is really trying to make a name for himself.

I would say that it is fundamentally correct that in the American usage "liberal" leaning policies will stand against "liberty" by their tendency to support government's supplying more private goods and redistributive measures.

The Republican fight against gay rights, women's rights, war on religion, denial of racism and so on.. all point to a clear problem with the word "liberty". Denying rights to minorities is not liberty.. quite the opposite.

It only sounds as though you should revisit the arguments in broader perspective Instead of just from your point of view. Because in none of your examples are the Democrat policies at all focused on liberty, while the Republican ones do or at least try.

Calling out is one thing, but saying something like

You'd have a point, if any of that is true

Oh, boo ****ing hoo. Take a look around sometime and you'll see conservative posters saying the exact same thing.

Stop whining.

errr.. what? You are trying to tell me and everyone else, that the GOP is not against equal rights to homosexuals? Or that the GOP is leading the war against Islam? Or the GOP is denying that there was any racial issues in places like Ferguson or any where else in the US? Seriously?

Silly, they were going to complain no matter where it was cut from.

More to the point, they would try to hyperbolically distort wherever it was cut from.

Never said that Democratic policies are focused on liberty.. nor have they. Republicans might say they want liberty but their actions speak against that.

That is correct. Conservatives just also think that non-homosexuals have rights, including rights of conscience

Or that the GOP is leading the war against Islam?

see that President feller who is proudly claiming that al-Qa'ida is decimated and has dramatically expanded the droning campaign? Guess which party?

Or the GOP is denying that there was any racial issues in places like Ferguson or any where else in the US?

...you do know that the Ferguson bit was based on a lie? Hands Up Don't Shoot was a falsehood from day one.

Indeed. You need look no further than PeteEU's rattling off of the left wing propaganda to know that they have nothing but hyperbole to drive their agenda.

Pointing to an alleged wrong by conservatives is not justification for an actual wrong by a liberal

LOL what utter bull****. So you are seriously saying that Conservatives are protecting the rights of homophobic morons by denying equal rights to homosexuals and that is liberty?

like the guy who stood on an aircraft carrier saying Mission Accomplished?

Based on a lie? So that an unarmed black man was shot by a police officer from a racist local government and police force... is not what started the whole thing?
