Yee-Hah. Found at last--the Liberal Agenda...
according to Don "Wild Man" Wildmon of the American Family Association,


Here is what we can expect if the liberals win:



Amnesty for 12,000,000 illegal immigrants.

A push to make homosexual marriage and polygamy legal in all 50 states.

Only liberal judges will be appointed. They will create laws to implement the social agenda liberals cannot get passed through the legislative process.

Liberals will make the killing of the unborn more difficult to stop.

Liberals will continue to try to rid our society of Christian influence, including any reference to God in our Pledge and on our currency.

A return to the "Fairness Doctrine" in broadcasting where opposing views must be given equal time. Every conservative talk show host will be forced to give a liberal equal time on every issue. The purpose of this rule will be to shut down conservative talk shows.

An increase in taxes to push new social programs.

Passing a new "hate crimes" law making it illegal to refer to homosexuality in a negative manner.

Liberals will give terrorists from other countries who try to kill Americans the same rights American citizens enjoy under our constitution.

We will withdraw from Iraq, sending the message to the terrorists that if they will just be patient they can win and bring their terrorist acts to the U.S.


I was kinda interested in that polygamy bit--I can see the discussion with my wife now: "Uh, she followed me home, Dear. Can I keep her?"

2. A return to the "Fairness Doctrine"
Now that would be something.

I'm surprised the idiot even knows about it.

7. Only a RWer could spin the Fairness Doctrine as something unfair and wrong
Of course, what this guy is saying is basically "The Dems want to prevent us from oppressing gays, controlling the media, and forcing Christianity on everyone."

3. This guy wanted a TV show banned
without ever seeing it. The show? NYPD Blue. It went on to great ratings success in part because of Wildmon. I bet Franz and co. were laughing all the way to the bank.

10. I just posted it for general interest. I thought it was nice of him to
supply us with an agenda since everyone seems to be accusing us of lacking one.

And yes, I know, we do indeed have an agenda, a very nice one as far as I'm concerned, but nobody knows about it because we can't get it discussed by the talking heads, who are instructed to keep telling everyone we have no agenda.

6. And this is bad, because...
Basically, the liberal agenda, even as he outlines it through the slimy film of conservo-crap, is Constitutional. The conservative agenda is NOT. And how do you "kill" the "unborn"?

9. Wildmon is a typical sociopathic fundie wingnut demagogue
Edited on Wed Oct-11-06 07:48 PM by Jackpine Radical
who works the drooling class for their lunch money by keeping them whipped up about various causes (like dirty words of TV, stores that use "Holidays" instead of "Christmas" in their ads, etc.). He has an organization called the American Fanatic (oops-meant "Family") Association.

11. Sounds good to me, where is any of that unconstitutional?
And how the hell does any of it affect this assclown in any way, other than possibly restraining his ability to tell other people what they can and cannot do?

13. More than anything else, I was amused to see how he's using this
stuff to scare his little Fundie mouth breathers into voting Puggie.

14. He has a SON? Does that mean he actually copulated?
Or might it have been a virgin birth?

Or does the kid resemble the guy that tunes the organ at the church?

19. Sounds like the Fred Phelps guy.
Or the lady that runs Jesus Camp or whatever that place is. They are either dictators or messiahs or green cheese eaters. Crazy ass mofos.

16. Uhh...
Amnesty for 12,000,000 illegal immigrants.
I sincerely doubt the number would be that high, but making them citizens adds to the people paying social security and taxes.

A push to make homosexual marriage and polygamy legal in all 50 states.
In response to their push to make it illegal in all 50 states.

Only liberal judges will be appointed. They will create laws to implement the social agenda liberals cannot get passed through the legislative process.
Just change liberal to rightwing and you have the converse.

Liberals will make the killing of the unborn more difficult to stop.
How do you kill what is unborn? And how do you stop abortion? Birth control and sex education.

Liberals will continue to try to rid our society of Christian influence, including any reference to God in our Pledge and on our currency.
It was never that big of a problem, I sincerely doubt we're going to go around scraping words off our coins. Where religion intrudes over the "separation" of church and state, yes, it should be challenged.

A return to the "Fairness Doctrine" in broadcasting where opposing views must be given equal time. Every conservative talk show host will be forced to give a liberal equal time on every issue. The purpose of this rule will be to shut down conservative talk shows.
So...your point is you don't think we should play fair?

An increase in taxes to push new social programs.
Woohoo! We need those. Churches don't pay taxes, what are they worried about?

Passing a new "hate crimes" law making it illegal to refer to homosexuality in a negative manner.
"Hate crimes" also refers to those committed in the name of a religion, so this would not be the bad thing the fundamentalists are thinking.

Liberals will give terrorists from other countries who try to kill Americans the same rights American citizens enjoy under our constitution.
Isn't that part of the idea...that "all men are created equal"? It doesn't say "all Americans" or "all White Men" or "all people in our country". ("Men" referring to gender-neutral humankind)
That's why we're better, because we treat people fairly, as we would wish to be treated...hmmm..."Do unto others..."

We will withdraw from Iraq, sending the message to the terrorists that if they will just be patient they can win and bring their terrorist acts to the U.S.
We will withdraw from Iraq because it was a ridiculous idea under false pretenses by our torture-loving War Pres'den'. Removing him from office would show the terrorists that the people have more power than the elected leaders.
