Morality is not determined by the church you attend nor the faith you embrace. It is determined by the quality of your character and the positive impact you have on those you meet along your journey

I feel that this quote should be sent to every member of Congress.
"Well, we'll just have to agree to disagree" said a conservative friend of mine recently. "I will NOT agree to disagree on facts," said I, "Facts are facts whether or not you agree: "Ronald Reagan was the first President to tax Social Security. "When Ronald Reagan cut taxes revenue went down. "George W. Bush was warned about the Bin Laden memo - and he took vacation in order to "clear brush" in Crawford anyway. "The Bush/Cheney administration sanctioned TORTURE OF HUMAN BEINGS! "And those are FACTS."
"Well, we'll just have to agree to disagree," he said.
"I feel that this quote should be sent to every member of Congress."
WRONG! It needs to be hammered into EVERYONE'S brain!
I recently had a conversation with a sales person in the company I contract with. He was moaning and groaning about the amount of time Obama spends on the golf coarse. When I slammed him with the facts about how much time BUSH spent away from Washington, he just said, "We need to just stop talking politics. We'll never agree."
I slapped him for THAT, too! "FACTS are FACTS. Don't give me that politics crap." He got mad. I laughed at him.
The "If you're rational" part is the most important. It shouldn't be just sent to every member of Congress, it should be tattooed somewhere they'll see it every day. Ricky Gervais says some wonderful things, and he's a damn good comic.

Ricky Gervais is a bitch.
ReplyDeleteOpinions don't change a person's life story or who they are. Every famous person, or person in general, understands this.

It isn't the facts that I question, it is the solutions.
