Just wondering...

...why are the bigoted people who rant about being morally right usually grammatically so wrong? Does that mean that the lack of education equals moral superiority?

...why do people call themselves the "tea party?" The original club was about taxation without representation. You are represented.

...why do those same people "want their country back?" Who took it? I bet Ireland, England, or wherever else their ancestors are really from is still there....Why don't they just go back?

...why do people complain about taxes when the US already pays less than other industrialized nations? Do we want equality with third world countries?

...why is the connotation of the word "liberal" so bad? Wasn't a driving force of the emergence of our country the mottos "Don't Tread on Me," and "Give Me Liberty or Give Me Death?" Liberty: Good. Oppression: Bad. Right?

...why do the same people who want to take no social responsibility for those with less privileges also want to control the (marriage, childbirth, religious...insert your issue here) rights of others? If they don't care about the less fortunate, can't they just leave them alone??? I swear, gay marriage, abortion, and Islam aren't contagious....really.

...also, continuing on the above thought - why are the people who want control over the rights of others also the ones who want the freedom to own as many guns as they choose? Last I checked, the presence of guns do affect other people; whereas, gay marriage does not.

Things that make me go hmmm.....
