> flag burning
Flagd aren't sacred. Sure, the symbolism is there, but there is symbolism in burning it to exemplify free speech. I would say that it's more important, even. It's more important to burn our flags than to salute them. We aren't national socialists, are we?

I feel like the school shouldn't have let them come on campus and that they probably shouldn't have let him do that on campus, either. And why was this so overpublicised?
And lol at the people swearing at him.
Also, the argument that 'soldiers died for you' is a bit weak, as they died for him to have the right to do what he was planning on doing, along with the right for those people to protest. I mean, the police were defending him and his right to that protest. It's like the protesters are saying, "free speech and defence of rights so long as they're our views"

The Teabaggers are the demon-spawn of the Republican party, only the most extreme right-wing nut-jobs support that shit (read super-rich, or super religious) with few exceptions. The Teabaggers are the Republican's answer to the big Democratic grass-roots movement that put Obama in office, and is mostly responsible for the major division in Washington you see today, the division has always existed, but its never been so apparent. That being said, I agree with a few things they have to say (cut spending and taxes), but mostly their agenda is deregulate (see how that worked out with housing-crisis), and give more breaks to corporations, banking and big-oil. Frankly they worry me, if those fuckers take over we're in for some major shit.

It's ok to be wrong, but you persist in egregious error despite having been corrected many times.
Most people in the Tea Party are dumb because most people in America are dumb. The people who voted for Obama were just as dumb ("WE PRESIDENT NOW!" "I don't have to worry bout my mortgage no more!")
Of course, you not actually looking for serious discussion about objective truth - "teabaggers" "demon spawn" "extreme" "nutjobs". Politics isn't sport. You don't just pick a side and stick with it. Put aside your labels and categories. Focus on the actual policies politicians propose, not which party they are part of, or which movement they claim allegiance to.
The housing market was never deregulated. The government forced banks to make risky loans to minorities; inflated house prices through grants and tax rebates; manipulated interests rates through the federal reserve &c. &c.
Corporations do not support Ron Paul. Why? They NEED the state. The state grants them favors, concessions and advantages that they would not otherwise have. Deregulation would hinder the big corporations and help consumers.

Never said it was. Banking was deregulated. Get the facts straight. You spent so much effort trying to make it sound like I am wrong, you never actually said anything. lol.
> The government forced banks to make risky loans to minorities
[citation does not exist]
Sup, Mountainman. ;)
Inflated housing prices were a direct result of risky lending practices made by banks that were freshly deregulated and allowed to do so. Yes there were grants, rebates and low interest rates that played its own part, but the banks played the single biggest role because the grants etc would have not happened had the banks not made loans in the first place.
Again, if you 'think' I'm wrong, please provide evidence of how I am specifically wrong instead of wildly throwing accusations around.

You are truly special lol. The banks don't want to make bad loans! Regulation encourages bad loans. Deregulation discourages bad loans.

Yes they do, particular if they can make a quick buck and pass the problem loan on to another company, which is one of the key things that led to the banking crisis. A great story on this problem was done a while back.

When they can pass the problem loan onto the state (BAILOUTS) they don't care about making bad loans. They still don't actively want to, but it becomes less important whether a loan is sound or not, because they are now guaranteed by the state.

Um, if you actually listened to the story I linked to, there was almost no government involvement. It was one company screwing over a whole other bunch of companies because it was profitable, and then the government eventually had to step in to stop the market from self-destructing under the instability caused by excessive corporate greed.
