<description>Conservative morals:

1.Overstate the sin of not adhering to whatever it is that we want the masses to do.

2.Shape public opinion against those who believe otherwise.

3.Do the opposite yourself (your family and friends also) but have a legally acceptable reason for not doing it in case you get caught. who cares if its morally reprehensible. IT&#039;S NOT A CRIME!

4.When you do get caught, change the subject and &lt;B&gt;take over&lt;/B&gt; the original stance of the opposition, touting its morality.  Make a point to highlight the immorality of doing what you had suggested and leave them baffled and too worn out, disgusted and appalled to challenge you. </description>

<description>&quot;Tell it to their fatherless children who wished every day that those 58,000 had found a way not to go to Vietnam and die, MCH.&quot;

So are all your role models draft-dodgers, Nalle/Populi, or just the Republican chickenhawks?

<description>#42: For a minute there, I thought Dave had seen the light on Iraq.

I do agree with him, however, that Vietnam was (ANOTHER) ill-conceived, futile, divisive, and undeclared war. </description>

<description>How do catergorize the following men on the macho scale? Ghandi, Vaclav Havel, Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr, Mandela, Jesus. These are the masculine role models I admire. With courage and integrity, they brought down empires.  </description>

<description>&quot;Which is the more manly choice, to abandon your wife and two young children to go fight in a meaningless and ill-conceived war, or to find a way to legally avoid going to war so that you can help provide for your family?&quot;
- Dave (Vox Populi) Nalle

Tell that to the families of the 58,000 who didn&#039;t come back, Nalle/Populi.

<description>Just a hypothetical for you, Zedd.  Raising the question of which is more important, personal responsibility or the obligation for national service.

I know that moral issues like this are something you&#039;d rather not challenge your brain with, but sometimes thinking is a good thing.

<description>Zedd asks in #36:

&lt;i&gt;How is it that you know such things. Yuck poooh!!&lt;/i&gt;

I went to grade school (about 50 years ago).

BTW, I didn&#039;t bring it up; I was just answering Stan&#039;s question, and figured it probably would be in the Urban Dictionary...</description>

<description>Is that a serious question?

I was referring to his phoney &quot;mission accomplished&quot; caper in 2003.  Believe me, if he had deserted the Oval Office I would be cheering--as would 99% of the people on the planet outside of the US....

I suppose they are the same sweat socks he ejaculates into when Laura locks him out....</description>

<description>&quot;....that&#039;s why Bush stuffed his flight suit with sweat socks.&quot;

I take it that was BEFORE he deserted.

<description>&quot;Chaney is just mad and diabolical. Not macho at all.&quot;

&quot;Cheney IS macho.&quot;

Gotta agree with Zedd. Cheney&#039;s five deferments during the Vietnam War proves her right on this one. </description>

As for the colloquialisms... I couldn&#039;t possibly do them justice on &quot;paper&quot;.  Its in the presentation and accent.  However its &quot;ballsy&quot;, charming and quite transfixing.  A different macho.  </description>

<description>Dave:
You&#039;re absolutely right about one part of the country not understanding how another part of the country can be into some things. As a Northeasterner, I sometimes don&#039;t understand why I&#039;m into Woody Allen myself. I certainly don&#039;t understand the LA thing of being into enhanced tits and lips and artificiality and all.

Zedd:
Cheney IS macho. The sneer, the low voice, the way he bends his head, looking out of one eye like Ahab or something -- those are all macho affectations.

I agree with you about Bush -- that&#039;s a very good picture you paint of him as &quot;a tiny tot playing cowboy.&quot; Right on.

Would love to hear a Dallas gay Texan colloqialism put-down story if you have one.

<description>Dave

I understand what you are saying.  I am a Texan (not born but raised through and through) and am Zulu.  I understand macho, the real thing. Ft Worth is just next door...... While Dallas is not really Texas but we have a lot of East Texas in these parts.  In Dallas, we also KNOW gay.  The coolest thing is Texas Gay.  Super cool. They don&#039;t have to snap, roll and &quot;no you diin&#039;t&quot; to tell you off.  They just apply one of those Texas colloquialisms and you are done.     

IMO Man who are truly masculine are often the kindest people.  They are open minded yet rational, they speak very little and know when the foolishness must end.  They get things done and are solutions oriented.  

Karl Rove... I wonder.  He is so busy plotting and finagling and dramatizing, same with Rush, Ralph Reed, Falwell and Oreilly.  They are so catty like the stereotypical hen house types.   

Off course the President is just a play macho.  I always imagine him with too big boots and his gun belt falling off of him like a tiny tot playing cowboy. He&#039;s just following Rovey&#039;s lead(Sissy!! You know he was over pummeled on the play ground.  Just look at him).  He doesn&#039;t know.

Chaney is just mad and diabolical.  Not macho at all.</description>
