Origin of Left & Right...
Have you ever wondered why it is that Conservatives are called the "right" and Liberals are called the "left."
"The heart of the wise inclines to the right, but the heart of the fool to the left." Ecclesiastes 10:2 (NIV)
Thus sayeth the Lord. Amen. Can't get any simpler than that.
And now for a Spelling Lesson-------
The last four letters in American...I Can The last four letters in Republican....I Can The last four letters in Democrats.....Rats
End of lesson. Test to follow in November, 2012.
Remember, November is to be set aside as rodent removal month. email
-------------- JESUS DID THE ORGANIZING for His church and whenever men go beyond that pattern (found only in the New Testament of Jesus Christ) they do so at their own peril. One needs to only read the New Testament to see the problem that has been created over the last two centuries within the churches.

Does it hurt to be so stupid?
QUOTE The terms "left" and "right" appeared during the French Revolution of 1789 when members of the National Assembly divided into supporters of the king to the president's right and supporters of the revolution to his left. One deputy, the Baron de Gauville explained, "We began to recognize each other: those who were loyal to religion and the king took up positions to the right of the chair so as to avoid the shouts, oaths, and indecencies that enjoyed free rein in the opposing camp." However the Right opposed the seating arrangement because they believed that deputies should support private or general interests but should not form factions or political parties. The contemporary press occasionally used the terms "left" and "right" to refer to the opposing sides.[10] When the National Assembly was replaced in 1791 by a Legislative Assembly composed of entirely new members the divisions continued. "Innovators" sat on the left, "moderates" gathered in the center, while the "conscientious defenders of the constitution" found themselves sitting on the right, where the defenders of the Ancien Régime had previously gathered. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Left%E2%80%93right_politics

If civilization is to survive in any form worthy of the name, liberalism – and, most importantly, its root causes – must die
duz it hurt to be so liberal.

I will post an email!!
The democrat symbol changed from a donkey to a condom!!! because; it accurately reflects parties political stance. A condom allows for inflation, halts production, destroys the next generation, protects a bunch of dicks, and gives you a sense of secrurity while youre actually being screwed!!
Doesnt get more accurate than that!!
