Moral evaluation

As an avid photographer, what would you do?????



This test only has one question, but it's a very important one. By
giving an honest answer, you will discover where you stand morally.
The test features an unlikely, completely fictional situation in
which you will have to make a decision. Remember that your answer
needs to be honest, yet spontaneous. Please scroll down slowly and
give due consideration to each line. ! Answer honestly!!!

You are in Florida, Miami to be specific.

There is chaos all around you caused by a hurricane with severe
flooding.

This is a flood of biblical proportions.

You are photojournalist working for a major newspaper, and you're
caught in the middle of this epic disaster. The situation is
nearly hopeless.

You're trying to shoot career-making photos.

There are houses and people swirling around you, some disappearing
under the water.

Nature is unleashing all of its destructive fury.

Suddenly you see a woman in the water.

She is fighting for her life, trying not to be taken down with the
debris.

You move closer.

Somehow the woman looks familiar.

You suddenly realize who it is.

It's Hillary Clinton!

At the same time you notice that the raging waters are about to take
her under forever.

You have two options-you can save the life of Hillary Clinton,
or you can shoot a dramatic Pulitzer Prize winning photo,
documenting the death of one of the world's most powerful women.

So here's the question, and please give an honest answer.......

Would you select high contrast color film, or would you go with the classic simplicity of black and white :wink:

I would rescue Hillary. Intelligent and committed women don't threaten my manhood, even if they're guilty of the same ambition that motivates men who aspire to greatness.

Is that why we're so easy on Bill Clinton (depends what is is), Kerry (compulsive liar), Gore (still lives in 2000 in Florida), Reid (the angry dwarf), Edwards (comment I don't know if I'm allowed to say out side smack so I won't), Kennedy (the murderer)? You can't mean to say we should take it easy on her since she's not male, are you? Shouldn't she be treated the same as anyone else with her views?

Um..Kerry's compulsive need to constantly lie about everything from his Vietnam war record to the most trivial matters, like that he ran the Boston Marathon (oops, no record of that) wasn't actually the point of the post.

Another thread that instantly becomes an attack on the US Democratic Party. This is weird.

Some weeks ago, I noticed a politcal thread that had worked its way to the "top" of insight, right there with Tom Paine, the Federalist Papers, Samuel Adams, and Jonathan Mayhew.

That one:

- You're a moron

- no, you're a moron

- well, you're a bigger moron.

As I said then, it takes me back to 6th Place, NE, where our arguments concluded:

"I'm made of rubber. You're made of glue. Everything you say bounces off of me and sticks back to you".

This sort of "political" argument is a waste of

- bandwidth

- server disk space

- moderator time

Yes, servers are cheap and bandwidth is getting cheaper, but moderators don't get paid to dredge through this.

I have seen this site have a sensible discussion of Dan Brown, the Da Vinci Code, and religion. We can do better.

If you actually take a look at her views, you will see that she is a moderate, her primary weakness being a reluctance of oppose the ending the war and a rather "conservative" failure to stand up for civil liberties.
She is not the favored candidate of liberals.
Also, Kennedy got drunk and caused the death of a woman. He didn't murder here; Kerry's records have now been released by the army and the case for his heroism is now considered air tight; I didn't say or imply anyone should take it easy on Hillary because she isn't male-- I did indicate she's an intelligent woman; Gore is often criticized for not pressing his case in Florida-- he was clearly cheated, but as speaker refused to let the matter go to the Senate. He also introduced legislation to allow the military's project (the internet) to become public and never said that he invented the internet, two facts you probably never learned from listening to Fox.
Your obvious hatred of the democrats/liberals leads you to fundamental distortions. I don't find the same error in you work in relation to republicans/conservatives regardless of your protests of equal contempt.
By and large, your appraisal of the Bush administration seems without distortion. I'll give you that. I wish you were as objective in regard to what you perceive as the "left," which is actually the center.

So you think people should take a reasonable, balanced view of a political party, less hostile? Follow your example? Just checking.

Not actually what I said. What I said is in end both parties actually do almost exactly the same things and that's why I don't vote for either one

I said I DO criticize the Left more, and it's because:

- While Republicans are not stemming the growth of government they don't talk about a desire to grow government like the left

- I find the blaming of America, blasting of our troops and praise of our enemies from the radical left enabled by the silence of the moderate left on that regard offensive

- They have devolved to a party of finger pointing, blame game, sanctimonious and demogogging while offering little real difference from Republicans and almost no actual agenda at all in a blatant and raw grab for the steering wheel.

Here is a list of people I can think of off the top of my head the Left has viciously and personally attacked over the last 20 years. Most for being conservative, some because they were in the way. And you talk about my hatred getting in the way? Again I am after them because as bad as the Right is, they cannot match the Left in the politics of personal destruction. This doesn't even include the worst like Packwood or Duke who really did deserve it.

- Ronald Reagan
- Clarance Thomas
- Condie Rice
- Rush Limbaugh
- Sean Hannity
- Bill O'Reilly
- Robert Bork
- Bill Frist
- Tom Delay
- Donald Rumsfeld
- Karl Rove
- Newt Gingrich
- Dick Cheney
- Casper Weinberger
- John Poindexter
- Trent Lott
- Jessie Helms
- Strom Thurmond
- Ann Coulter
- Roberto Gonzales
- Scooter Libby
- Paula Jones
- Oliver North
- George HW Bush
- George W Bush
- John Tower
- James Watt
- John Bolton
- Dan Quayle
- Ken Starr

This is a party out of control, to disagree with them is enough. And the tag teaming of liberals calling me a Republican and attacking me even for just criticizing their behavior is a pretty good example of my point that it's about destroying enemies, not gaining friends or persuading anyone.
