Dude, you're an idiot
And your audience moreso. Attorney General Bill Lockyer, taking a break from his efforts to prevent gay marriage (it's only his job, not his fault, but still, you've gotta' laugh at that)
"One group sees isolated individuals as self sufficient atoms," Lockyer said. "The other sees complex connected molecules, and the role of government is to be our collective instrument to solve human problems."
Quick, name a human problem! Oops, sorry, that's not a human problem. That's your problem. Plenty of people disagree, and would use this collective instrument to not solve this "human problem." So what makes this instrument collective? Also, isolated individuals are self sufficient atoms. They have to be, because they are isolated. Also, chemistry wants its terms back.
Issue by issue, he presented the administration as callous and following a self-interested agenda.
Oh, God no! An administration following the agenda that interests it! If only we had a Democratic president, who would most certainly run an agenda contrary to his own interests of justice, peace, or whatever the hell else you think Democrats stand for.
"Our federal agencies don’t value a woman’s right to choose," he said to a riled crowd snapping their fingers. "For me it’s really a lot simpler. The constitution provides for equal protection, and I don’t know how a woman can be an equal partner in our society unless they have control over their reproductive decisions."
Did I miss something? Snapping fingers = applause now? Oh, who cares. Women have control over their reproductive decisions, you know. Birth control, condoms, leg-closure, etc. If you're so concerned about equal protection, shouldn't men be able to get an abortion, too?
“One of the biggest gun sellers in California, Walmart, has not sold a gun in California in over a year and a half,” he said. “I stopped them because they were not doing the proper checks.”
How can a company that doesn't sell any guns in California be one of the biggest gun sellers in California?
