Sweet! Has anyone uploaded it to youtube yet?
meh….. seriously hasn’t picking on Limbaugh and Hannity and Beck gotten annoying to anyone else besides me?
No, no, no, and to extend your question to Ann Coulter, no. “Picking on them”? They’ve made their careers out of hating the victims in any given scenario. Let me see, which one of those fat gasbags was the one who said he hated the 9/11 widows…
Hating 911 widows? None of them actually. Typical Liberal.
“Were all victims! Everybody is picking on us! WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!”
Get over yourselves. At least none of the above mentioned individuals whine every time sombody makes fun of them.
Oh, you’re right. It was Glenn Beck:
Beck: You know, it took me about a year to start hating the 9/11 victims’ families. It took me about a year. Um, and I had such compassion for them and I really, you know, I wanted to help them, and I was behind — let’s give them money, let’s get them started, and all of this stuff. And I really didn’t — all the 3,000 victims’ families, I don’t hate all of them, I hate about, probably about ten of them. But when I see 9/11 victim family, you know, on television, or whatever, I’m just like, ‘Oh, shut up.’ I’m so sick of them. Because they’re always complaining. And we did our best for them.”
link plz
Ever heard of google?
if its so easy get me a link.
I copied the first line of Portland Mark’s post into google and came up with several hundred hits. It took about 4 seconds, and you can’t be bothered?
Yeah, cause I’m totally going to help you agrue against me. Suurrrre.
Yep, stuff the truth… I don’t like if it doesn’t work for me…
Yawn. Still waiting for that link.
It’s there.
Step 1: Look at Mark’s post saying “Link provided” (May 8, 2009 at 7:17 am)
Step 2: Look at Mark’s name, which is blue (indicating a link) instead of black. (No link)
Step 3: Click on Mark’s blue name.
Step 4: Engage Brain.
Step 5: Read.
I am still trying to wrap my mind around hating victims…
Still waiting for V Gard to say “Oh that. Typical lib bashing a God-fearing white republican for no reason”
Link provided
i see no link…
Click on his name idiot. You can’t put links in the actual thread or it will get filtered out.
There is no spoon…
Don’t have anything to say anymore now do you?
Typical Liberal, backing up your statements with facts and quotes…
I’m pretty sure it was Coulter.
Oh, Annie got her fanny onto the “hate the victims” bandwagon too (linky). Right-wing pundits – not necessarily rational or logical or right, but consistent.
Did you actually read the context? Or are you like the average liberal who doesn’t read facts, just pulls bits of information out. He is very justified in his hatred for the weepy victims who create a lifestyle out of dependence on others because of one single event. I feel sorry for someone when they fall to misfortune, but if they don’t pick themselves back up and continue to moan and complain about it, that is where the pity ends. Beck worded it rather harshly but I do agree with him. He doesn’t hate the people for being victims of a tragedy, but he hates them for perpetuating the victimization long after the tragedy is over.
Anyone who has lost someone truly close to them (spouse, child, beloved parent) will need to mourn for at least a year. Castigating them for being emotional when they haven’t had time to heal is just cruel. If the people are still acting that fashion after two years, then I will line right up to criticize them, myself. But until then, some compassion is called for. “Pull yourself up by your bootstraps” before enough time has passed is both nasty and useless.
You have missed the point completely. It has been almost 10 years since 9/11 took place. Beck was talking mostly about the people who have used the tragedy to gain air time and make a lot of money doing so.
Here’s an assignment for you: Go look up the actual context of what he said and read it for yourself. Then you will be able to understand and decide for yourself if he was right or wrong.
Too often liberals let other people’s snippets of dialogue, taken completely out of context, make up their minds for them. They should be investigating and deciding on their own.
That’s why I love Fox news. They report. I decide.
You missed the context. This was in 2005. You obviously don’t listen too well either.
I’m not gonna even touch the idiocy of you getting your misinformation from Fox. It’s too easy.
You would have done well in communist Russia, I think. “Pravda gives me all the information I need, comrade!”
And then promptly regurgitate everything you have been spoon fed. My suggestion would be to ween yourself from Fox News and learn to fly on your own.
I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again: are you sure you’re a republican, Eddie?
LOL! Not all Republicans hang on every word that spews from Fox. Some of us actually like to think for ourselves. Besides, I’m a RINO, remember (or at least some like to fling that one in my direction.) I can only hope that all of these right-wing nut jobs will form their own party so we can have ours back.
too much work for them, you’ll have to take your party back yourselves. you could probably start by referring to them as the old guard or the gops of the 20th century and yourselves as the republicans for the 21st century. after alll, rebranding works for merchandise, it should work for politics too
I dunno. It seems to me that the loony right wingers are more of a 21st century trend. The classic GOP should get to keep the name and let the nutjobs get their own party.
lol, nope, they are firmly 20th cent – ronnie reagan embraced the moral majority with open arms and what we see today is merely their demon spawn.
the gop name has been so contaminated by them that developing a new name/party is probably the only way you can get rid of the stench without waiting for the last one to die off in 30 years or so. besides by abandoning them to their own devices would demonstrate forward thinking on your part and how truly irrelevant the wingnuts really are.
Dang it, BF, I can’t argue that point. But how will we be able to claim we are the party of Lincoln and not Rove?
Finally, someone who can read.
Beck says he hates about 10 of them. Odds are, if you take 3,000 families, there will be ten of them you hate as well. Those 10 families were the ones trying to get famous because someone died on 9/11.
@Jojo. “Beck: You know, it took me about a year to start hating the 9/11 victims’ families. It took me about a year”. From Portland Mark’s quote above. Context yourself, dude.
Beck was talking mostly about the people who have used the tragedy to gain air time and make a lot of money doing so.
Oh, you mean like the ENTIRE REPUBLICAN PARTY?
Oww! A veritable touch, Sir!
Wow I almost thought he was joking with the Fox news comment. “They report. I decide.” Should be “They report, I reach the conclusions they want me to reach”
Thank you. Thanks you so much. Your petulant whining is like an intoxicating liquor to me. I can almost taste your tears of impotent rage, and the pungent aroma of your failure and flop sweat is like a perfume to me. Your obvious confusion and inability to see that reality has passed you by, that the country has changed and left you an outcast, alone in the cold, a powerless minority shunned by all right thinking people, why, that is just the frosting on the cake.
Could you, you know, could you whine a little more for me? Oh yeah… that’s the stuff.
*loves Seth in a totally hetero way*
*waves lighter to and fro*
Ah, I loves me some poetry!
V-D Guard, yes, Beck said he is starting to hate the people who lost a loved one in the 9/11 attacks. Not sure about the other hate mongers. O’rielly, Coulter, Beck, and Hannity are all good at talking the talk, but when it comes to walking the walk, they have no legs.
Although, Limbaugh said that Michael J. Fox was just milking the Parkinson when he was actually having an episode in the middle of the interview.
Oh yeah. Terminal disease, such a great thing to make fun of.
Limbaugh needs to get his head out of his ass so he can actually see the mile-deep-grave he’s dug for himself.
Micheal J Fox admitted he was off his medication for that interview. That is using his disease. Sure its a horrible disease, but stopping the meds that help him control it for sympathy is just as bad as anything limbaugh said about it.
But that wasn’t what Limbaugh stated- Limbaugh said that he was exaggerating the episode, when it was actually occurring and completely outside of Michael J. Fox’s control.
Also, he was not off his meds. Please, educate yourself- *link in name*
You lie like a rug, sir. Possibly, you’re merely uninformed. Michael J Fox has said on radio that the twitching and what not are a *result* of the medication. Without the medication he would have been immobile, incapable of even doing the ads.
Just thought you’d want to know before you embarassed yourself in public again.
No, they don’t “whine every time somebody makes fun of them;” if a Republican dares to badmouth Limbaugh he just has that person erased. It must be the answer, otherwise what would make them act that way when they say something “wrong” about him in front of a camera?
At least none of the above mentioned individuals whine every time sombody makes fun of them.
Oh, right. That’s O’Reilly.
It was Ted Rall, massive Leftist, who attacked the 9/11 widows.
Oops! FAIL!
Lies like that ARE a fail, you are right. Ted Rall never said anything about the 9/11 widows.
Woot’s correct.
…but the controversy surrounding The Boondocks was barely a blip compared to the tussle surrounding Ted Rall’s March 27 offering. In a strip titled “Terror Widows,” the leftie political cartoonist mocked the survivors of the attacks who he believed had been exploiting their new found prominence in pursuit of their own personal fame and fortune.
Rall – a 1996 Pulitzer Prize finalist whose cartoons appear in more than 100 newspapers nationwide – harped on the media ubiquity of the terror widows, plus the piles of money many made since the attacks. He also mocked broadcast news for milking the grief of terror survivors for stories during the Winter Olympics and other events.
Numerous newspapers and websites, including those of New York Times, pulled the comic after an ensuing criticism, especially from the widows themselves.
I agree, Ted Ralls’ cartoon was horribly offensive. However, I’d never even heard of him before you linked to him. Are you really putting him on the same level as Rush et al?
link to that please, because I’m pretty damn sure it was Anne Coulter that said many a horrible things about the widows, as well as Glenn Beck. Portland Mark has the link for Glenn and I’ll look for Coulter.
I remember Ann Coulter saying that, relatively early on. That was when I decided to stop giving her the benefit of the doubt. Link provided, complete with video interview.
thank you ^^ I remember that too, I saw it when she first did it, and then laughed when Cathy Griffin mocked her openly. I stopped respecting Ann that day, then and there, even though I thought she had a good head on her shoulders that just… was unforgivable.
Do you see democrats idolizing Ted Rall? Didn’t think so…
Actually, Ann Coulter also commented on them (widows) being harpies after media attention and using their husbands deaths to gain publicity. When I heard her say that on tv, I was at a loss for words.
She was right. They were using their husband’s deaths to make **political** statements, and there was to be zero tolerance of criticism on the political level *because* of their status as widows. Clown nose on/clown nose off. You don’t get to have it both ways; what they were doing was wrong.
Coulter merely had the gall to call it like it actually was.
What is “is”, is making an asshat out of herself.
Don’t worry. They’re just expressing the opinions fed to them by the commissariat in the mainstream media. If they had minds of their own, they’d actually listen to both sides and decide for themselves.
Ahah hah hah hah hah- oh wait, you were serious? Listen, when there’s an actual left wing media to match Fox news, there will be an opportunity to “listen to both sides”. Right now, there’s such an imbalance that you guys think there’s only “right wing” and “moderate”, and you think the moderates are all socialists!
Chris Matthews gets a tingle up his leg whenever Obama belches, and Keith Olbermann foams at the mouth whenever a Republican expresses dissent. ABCNBCCBS have non-stop lovefests with The Obama, and the talk show guys are on for a few hours each day. We are inundated with spewing hatred for what conservatives think and say at every level, and you think that the media is weighted to the right?
Oh, and starting your post with phonetic derisive laughter does not automatically mean you have made your point.
love-fest? I missed that broadcast, could you link it for me?
ABC/NBC/CBS are fairly moderate. They are certainly not as far on the left as Fox News is on the right.
Oh please. Fox only appears right because the others are so far Left, especially MSNBC. They wouldn’t say a bad thing about Obama if you held their families hostage.
…… or maybe thats WHY they wont say a bad thing about Obama…. hmmmmmmm.
FauxNews is, indeed, far right.
…… or maybe thats WHY they wont say a good thing about Obama…. hmmmmmmm.
Au contrair. O’Riely says good things about Obama all the time. Yes he is very critical of the Preseident, but if you actually WATCHED his show you would realise that he criticised Bush all the time too. And as for the actual NEWS programs, they never really take an opinion either way, unlike MSNBC.
As for shows like Hanity, Beck, and O’Riely, they are not NEWS, they are OPPINIONS; and as such they can say what they please so long as it is not Hatefull.
“you would realise that he criticised Bush all the time too.”
Oh, man I’m just *DIEING* to see a link for that!
I would love too, but the videos on his site don’t go back more then a month or so. Sad times.
Do you know why videos on his site don’t go back more than a month? Because he doesn’t want people to remember what he said, he wants it to be hard for people to fact check him, and he has utter contempt for the truth. He wants to be able to say something, and then say the opposite, without anyone questioning him. Did you know Fox News sued for the right to lie to you, and won? Corporations have first ammendment rights, including the right to lie. Google ‘fox new right to lie.’
OFFS people. Link.
Quote: All pretty much Bill being Bill, but giving President Bush and the Folks™ a “drop-dead” date for the war he cheerlead us into? Well, that’s the type of gutsy rebirth that could almost close down SweetJesusIHateBillOReilly. com. Almost.
And t’s DYING, PortlandMark, unless you’re changing the color of your shirt.
*it’s
ROFL! Sanctimony FAIL!
…And it’s dyeing.
Yeah, but DIEING is also an actual word.
tr.v. died, die·ing, dies
To cut, form, or stamp with or as if with a die.
And in the states, it’s DYING (the dead thingie.)
He was making fun of V Gard’s spelling, I do believe.
@Charro: no, it was your common, garden variety spelling error. Thank you for the correction all.
Dead thingy is “dying” here too but changing the colour of your shirt is dyeing…
So if you’re changing the colour of your shirt by bleeding to death in it is it dying or dyeing?
It’s Bush’s fault.
Link.
Sure, he says that briefly, and then goes on to scream and threaten violence against Barney Frank and Senator Dodd. I dunno, man. That’s, at most, a mild rebuke against the righties followed by screaming at the lefties. I’m not convinced.
“O’Riely says good things about Obama all the time”
Yes, and monkeys fly out of my butt in formation every hour on the hour.

ofcourse you would know since you watch the show all the time.
Oh wait, did King Kong just climb Big Ben?

BOOOOONNNNNNGGG!!!

ROFL. Nesting fail. @Forge, not ME!
See, where your logic breaks down, is you can’t name an actual moderate broadcast medium. In your mind there are only “moderate” (Fox) and left wing (anyone who disagrees with you). You certainly weren’t complaining when nbc cbs and abc were blindly backing Bush Cheney et al. I, at least, am intellectually honest enough to recognize the difference between “right wing” and “disagrees with me”.
Just so we’re clear, msnbc (owned by one of the nations largest defense contractors) isn’t even left wing. They merely tolerate a news lineup that’s increasing their ratings. If you’d like to see what a left wing medium sounds like, try finding Air America and listen to that. If you’re in one of the many places that doesn’t have access, then go to 620kpojdotcom and listen there. Your head will totally asplode.
I know nothing about Backing Bush/Cheney, thought I do know they were constantly sceptical at best about anyting Bush did.
And “They merely tolerate a news lineup that’s increasing their ratings.” ????? Now that is truely funny.
http://tvbythenumbers.com/2009/02/24/cable-news-ratings-for-monday-february-23/13430
Aparently that isn’t working out for them so well.
I’m not sure what you think that proves. MSNBC is putting up very respectable ratings compared to a couple years ago. A couple years ago, they would have been ecstatic to be in third place. Rachel Maddow, in particular, nearly beats Larry King. Fox news is doing exceptionally well since the inauguration. It’s a well known fact that righties can’t stand to hear a dissenting opinion, and so you guys are all sucking up the Murdoch pap. No surprise there.
PM, as far as bias/slant goes, I think it’s essential that we separate the opinion/talk shows (Beck, Maddow, et al) from the actual news reporting done on each network.
Respectfully, while I concede Rachel’s left wing bias, I believe her show is more news than opinion. /$.02
As I’ve never actually seen it (I don’t watch news channels in the evening unless there’s something major going down that I want to keep tabs on) I don’t have a good response, other than that I was using her show for an example…apparently not a great example? Substitute your own, I guess.
on this, I’d have to concur with PM, Rachel Maddow’s show, thought it’s in a talk show format, does relay alot of news. They present the story then break it down through discussion, usually. Very well done, actually – I’ve been rather impressed with her from what I’ve seen so far.
And a to V-man up top, both Maddow and Olberman have, indeed, not too long ago, criticized Obama – they’re fans of him, sure, but they do pick apart and analyze what he’s doing and do it far better and more professionally than Beck or Hannity. The only time O’Reilly gives a compliment it seems is when he thinks it makes him look better – man’s too damn full of himself to even realise when he’s being contradictory.
Anyway.. figured your $.02 could use some company.
What makes Rachel appear even more credible is that she’s right after Keith Olbermann, and while I think Olbermann is awesome, his show is essentially trash. But good trash. I like that trash. But while Olbermann is definitely a guilty pleasure for me, Rachel Maddow makes me feel smarter for watching it. LOL
Just so we’re clear, msnbc (owned by one of the nations largest defense contractors) isn’t even left wing.
Jeffrey Immelt is one of Obama’s advisers, and he isn’t left wing?
They merely tolerate a news lineup that’s increasing their ratings.
Which isn’t working if you would look up the stats.
So, our defense contractors are now left wing? (I guess that means they are now considered patriotic, which means- Oh, Happy Day! that left wingers are now patriotic!)
Wait, isn’t being left-wing and a defense contractor an oxymoron? It’s like a right-winger being a hippy. Aren’t they mutually exclusive?
I thought so too, but that other guy seems to have information unavailable to you and me.
AA isn’t even all that left anymore now that Thom Hartmann isn’t carried there. To me they’re more like “common sense” talk radio. The lefty nut cases (Randi Rhodes, Mike Molloy) are or were on Nova M Radio. Rhodes just lost her syndication contract for being a rabid psycho though.
I’m pretty sure Thom Hartmann is still carried by Air America, even if your local station preempts him for someone else. Ed Schultz (not of Air America) just got a tv show, thank goodness. Randi (who I despise) just got picked up again, by Rush Limbaugh’s company.
Hartmann’s not on there according to the AA web site. I was never much of a fan of Schultz but he does talk sense. On the other hand I love Stephanie Miller and I want to have all her babies. = )
Schultz is going to be the left wing talker that breaks into the mainstream, I think. He’s a football fan, a hunter, and a fisherman, and is able to speak to the NASCAR wing of the Republican Party.
Stephanie is a total babe of a certain age. She makes me think dirty thoughts.
The other networks may appear far left to you, from your perspective over on the far right, with Fox News. That doesn’t change the fact that there is no network even FARTHER left than the ones you mentioned. Yes, those networks are left-leaning, but they are not nearly as far from center as Fox.
If you think Fox is moderate, you are either lying to yourself, or your perspective is not objective.
I do not think Fox is moderate. But I do think that they are more to the center then the others are. But thats just me.
Yes, it IS just you!
It’s just you, some teabaggers and a couple of lunatics I now completely ignore on another site. Good lord, it is unfathomable to me that someone, anyone, can’t recognize Fox for the far-right instrument of torture that it is.
The way you people and the media portray the Tea Party protesters is absolutely disgusting. i wonder if this is the lack of ability discern “right wing” from “disagrees with me” that portlandmark is talking about.
The “Tea party protests” were actually organized by the media, you prove you’re ignorance all on your own.
Ah yes, “Teabaggers”. We can’t actually present logical arguements against the people at the Tea Parties, so instead we will marginalize them, downplay their numbers and effectiveness, and then just discredit them by slandering their name with sexual inuendos and by calling them racist, homophobic, bigots. Sounds like SOP for any Liberal.
Dude, nobody showed up to your silly little tea parties. It was entirely sponsored by Fox News, zombie republidrones only went because they are indoctrinated to do whatever their unltra conservative masters tell them to do.
You never had any argument to counter. Your ‘argument’ is ‘Waaaaah, I don’t WANNNA pay taxes, I’m a big boy now and you can’t tell me what to do! WAAAAAAH!’
Why should we try to argue in a civil fashion with someone who has proven, over and over again, that they are unable to do so themselves? Why should we give you courtesies you are unwilling to give to others? You do realize that everything you’ve ever written here is, ah, still here, right? You can’t deny what you are or how you act, it is plainly visible to everyone.
can you find me some solid numbers for the attendees to the Tea Parties? I’d love to see them.
“You never had any argument to counter. Your ‘argument’ is ‘Waaaaah, I don’t WANNNA pay taxes, I’m a big boy now and you can’t tell me what to do! WAAAAAAH!’”
I’m in favor of branding that on the asses of all the teabaggers, actually.
“You never had any argument to counter. Your ‘argument’ is ‘Waaaaah, I don’t WANNNA pay taxes, I’m a big boy now and you can’t tell me what to do! WAAAAAAH!’”
I’m in favor of branding that on the asses of all the teabaggers, actually.
that’s not an argument. I asked for solid numbers, facts, to back up your assertion that no one attended the Tea Parties. can you provide them or not? you’re the one saying that we have no argument, prove that you do.
It won’t let me put the link in without eating the post. From five thirty eight dot com, the estimate nationwide is 111,000 people.
Let’s not get all douchey, now. I said “some” Teabaggers, not “all” Teabaggers. See what happens when you watch too much Fox? You develop the inability to parse the sentences of those you disagree with.
whether or not you were referring to everyone you call a teabagger or just some of them seems to be a non-issue in my mind.
Tell you what, how about you state for the record that you respect the opinions of the people who protested against Bush for years? I will apologize for being a jerk if you just admit that the Anti-Bush protesters and the tea party protesters are morally equivalent. Without equivocation. Oh, and you could admit that we actually got a million people to show up in Washington, unlike the tea party folks.
Glenn Beck and others actually CALLED THEMSELVES “Teabaggers.” Apparently none of them were filled in on what “teabagging” is. I find that eminently hilarious, among the thousand other things I find hilarious about a movement that would go out of its way to protest paying less in taxes and their taxes going toward things like infrastructure and education instead of guns and bombs for killing brown people.
All this talk about teabagging makes me want to go play Halo 3. Except I sold my Xbox. Damn.
Typical. Don’t you get it? You are out of touch with your fellow citizens. YOU are the weirdo outcast who’s political beliefs are anathema to sane Americans everywhere. YOUR side is outside the mainstream. The country has swung left again. Which means we are actually approaching the center, from the far, far right, as viewed by 99% of humanity.
The media are ALL conservative, except for MSNBC, which has a slight left bias. Think about it, media owners are rich, and the Republicans are the party that gives tax cuts to the rich. Therefore, the media support Republicans. It’s simple, and obvious, how that works.
Don’t know if I completely agree with that, but you make some good points. The media is far more center than people are giving them credit for. I’ve seen a lot of “Obama is doing things wrong” lately, especially after the Stimulus Package. Having Economy specialists on and everything to talk about how it could work, or how it could fail. It’s responsible journalism at work.
I didn’t think any industry (including entertainment) could support too far of left leaning stance for too long. It looks like they’re trying to regain a little bit of balance.
Personally, I think the people on the left are top heavy with smug, and the people on the right have a little bit of ego. I’m more than a little to the right myself, but I know I can’t do squat to change anything, so I’d rather drink and argue about cars.
In before the powerless debate to say that I prefer to kill digital enemies and dick around online.
All right, that’s what I’m talking about! Nothing like releasing aggression with video games! I’m assuming that’s what you mean.
Of course, I have yet to find a way to trap people in a digital world.
Gore is also rich if i remember correctly. So is George Soros. being rich doesn’t make a person conservative.
Well since you obviosly are incapable of thinking rationally I do believe that I’m going to ignore everything you say from now on. Goodbye.
You can try. But you can’t ignore me any more than you can think rationally, emo-publican. Cry more for us, please.
LOL!! Emo-publican? Good Lord you have a way with words. YOu know what I find amazing, I would rather read what Dhoti puts up instead of this wankstain.
There is hope for Dhoti. He may be mean spirited some times, but he’s not an idiot.
Occasionally Dhoti makes with the funny. V Gard is just a jackass. Period.
What a good idea! We’ll do the same for you and you can talk to yourself thus making everyone happy!
its a simple logic from a simple mind as far as i can see.
“Well since you obviosly are incapable of thinking rationally I do believe that I’m going to ignore everything you say from now on. Goodbye.”
Translation: “I can’t refute your argument intelligently, moreover I will never admit that I am wrong, so I’m taking my ball and going home. So there. Neener neener.”
Question: Isn’t calling someone “the weirdo outcast who’s political beliefs are anathema to sane Americans everywhere.” the same tactic as the “Neener neener” type comment you referred to above?
Dammit, and I had just gotten out of mediator mode…
*sigh* Yes it is and I would qualify it with a but in regards to V Gard’s record of being a tosser but I am a bit worn trying to negotiate everything out so have fun with the onslaught.
No… it’s the *truth.*
That’s a bit of a logical fallacy, Seth, considering that Donald Trump and other extremely wealthy people support Obama and other “left-wingers”. You’ve got a lot of “Rockefeller Republicans” out there who wouldn’t vote Republican if a gun was held to their head. Just being rich doesn’t mean you support the right wing.
When I’m feeling mean, I don’t use the best argument, I use the most irritating one.
@V Gard – “They (MSNBC) wouldn’t say a bad thing about Obama if you held their families hostage”.
Check the link. One of many if you google “Olbermann criticizes Obama”. Not that difficult to track down if this old lady can figure it out. Give it a try sometime.
You mean the Chris Matthews that practically fellated Fred Thompson in the middle of a campaign speech? That Chris Matthews?
At least opinions aren’t outright lies like Fox feeds the public. Besides, the people listed (ann coulter, etc.) are more offensive to everyone than anyone on ABC and Co.
As if you do that or any of your goosestepping cronies.
*snores*
*snaps awake*
What did I miss?
Not much. The bus just slowed below 55.
That… was funny.
So funny I almost forgot to laugh………..
Agreed
Yeah, I doubt that any of those guys would be on a public bus.
I like to listen to Rush, but his ego is a little large. He’d take his jet.
One for his ego, and a separate one for him.
Reminds me of a saying about a person that was so fat that when they hauled ass they had to make two trips.
…one could only hope…
So how you feel if I said I hope the same thing happens to Keith Olbermann and Chris Matthews?
Please, Chris Matthews was in the tank for Bush in both 2000 and 2004; now that he realizes what a disaster the neocons were he has the intellectual honesty to admit it. I’m not a fan, but I’ll give him respect for knowing when he was wrong!
So, basically, one set of opinions deserves a flaming death, and another set of opinions is the truth. Please go sit with al qaeda, because that’s exactly what they believe.
As did the prior administration.
sorry, but in what way did Bush treat liberals in the way that they treat us?
Oh I dunno… free-speech zones? Not letting anyone who wasn’t already going to vote for him anyway into political rallies? Telling war protesters “tough shit, Ah’m th’ Prez’dint?”
I think the LOL says the died bc of their OWN egos exploding…not bc someone planted Keith Olberman’s ego in with them (that would have been funny too come to think of it)- but no one is saying the deserve to die bc we do not agree with them (that I have seen here today), back away from the cliff….
Does this count as Godwin? Just replace Nazi with Al Queda or however the hell you spell that?
LOL, you refered to Bush ad a Neo-Con. lol. Now THAT is funny.
Neoconservatism is a political philosophy that emerged in the United States of America, and which supports using American power, including military force, to bring democracy and human rights to other countries.
Funny, and true!
there you go with that whole truth thing.. (sigh) when will it stop!?? next you’re going to say we need to educate our kids!
I am pretty sure that a) he refers to himslef that way- at least in the past; b) the architects of the neo-con movement (e.g. Rove) were some of his biggest supporters/mentors/advisers, and c) that the majority of the electorate assumed he was a neocon.
If you disagree, then I think that your movement (I assume, forgive me, that you are a neo-con and do not feel Bush represented your view, from your comment- if incorrect, my apologies), was highjacked by him and his advisers. If you think that is funny, I think that is sad- if you do not appreciate the public face of your view point being misrepresentative, you should try putting a more accurate public face forward-
PM, you are far more generous to Tweety than I am willing to be. He is an opportunist who fawns on the leader du jour because that will get him shiny things.
Well, it wouldn’t be true, so it’s a little different.
Yea, they’re fine, dammit.
this is not even remotely cleaver…. I guess it would be witty if on the side of the bus were a picture of these men, but just to find a picture of a bus on fire and say, “oh look blah blah blah”. I guess i could find a picture of “Old Faithful” erupting and say, “Chris Matthews excited over another Obama speech” but there is no wit to it. My guess is that the, obvious, left leaning producers of this web site, saw a smack on Fox News, though it has no wit, put it up on their site. It really is a shame to see them sink that low. If you are going to try to insult the Right at least be witty. This is just pathetic
It’s not cleaver? Perhaps more of a chef’s knife then?
Maybe I should call Walley and Beaver. and why not Edie Haskel while I’m at it. thanks for pointing out my mis spelling. your reply is more clever than the picture. I’ll be expecting a reply after your afternoon recess.
Edie? Was that Eddie’s mom’s name? Let’s go visit her. Quickly now, left, right, left, right…
I have to admit, trying to get anyone to believe that the media is weighted to the right is absolutely not doable. Not to mention that I’m pretty sure that you’re quoting out of context the one of them that said they hated 9/11 widows, and that you might want to check the context in which they said that and what they were saying it in response to. This is why everyone hates conservatives/moderates. Because we aren’t all embracing of the ideology of the left that we MUST be racist bigoted ass holes that don’t deserve to breathe the same air as them.
Because no one on fox news takes things out of context… ever.
All he’s saying is that the other quote is out of context. Not anything along the lines of “liberals always do that”, he’s just saying that one quote is out of context.
Jake- I cannot find the clip, but The Daily show played it word for word, and the man said that he hated them basically bc- I paraphrase they were still whining a year later, and that they should get over it–I believe it was bc the Bush admin was not going to cooperate with the investigation commission, and the families were asking him too, and Beck said they were whining? I am unsure- but there are MANY conservative thinkers and pundits that should be taken seriously as simply having an opposing view point (Bill Crystal used to be–he seems to have lost something lately though..). Glenn Beck is a COMEDIAN, pretending to have a NEWS show. Come on- if his show were on Comedy Central, then I would laugh, it would be the counterpoint to Jon Stewart- but he does not present it as entertainment and comedy (although I hope most People watching do)—he presents himself as a serious commentator. He is not.
Awwww, poor emo Gopers
You Libs do realise that “insulting” them like this just tells them that they are doing a good job? Like every time Olbermann goes on his Countdown show and makes fun of basically anyone from Fox, he’s really just telling them that they are on the right track.
so keep it up.
So then when o’riley calls someone a pinhead, he does it because that person is dong a good job?
Interesting typo. I typed o’riley, and must have made a subconscious link.
…… I think there is an understanding-Fail somewhere in here. O’Riely calls someone a Pinhead becuase he thinks that they are wrong. If that person chooses to take that as a compliment then good for them.
Personally I think that part of O’Rielys show is the weakest, on the rare occasions that I actuallly watch it.
You said the “Libs” are telling people they are doing a good job when they mock someone; I suggested, by that logic,the same must be true of o’riley when he mocks someone. Where is the understanding fail?
What I meant is that whenever a Lib makes fun of Beck, O’Riely, Hannity, Coulter, ect. They take it as a compliment. I suppose its true that others could feel the same about what O’Riely says. But Beck and O’Riely talk about being atack all the time. I shall try to find a link…
http://www.foxnews.com/oreilly/
This is sorta what I’m talking about. Go to the ‘Politics’ playlist and scroll down to the second to last link. The part I’m talking about is at like 3:30 but its really a great segment if you want to see things from Fox’s point of view.
But I don’t want to see things from “Fox’s” point of view. I want to see things from my own point of view, you know, by learning the facts, reviewing the pros and cons of each side objectively, and then forming my own opinion based on my moral values.
steve, what you just said right there is probably a good example of why the majority of people who go to college end up with the democratic party and/or a more liberal point of view.
To be fair, plenty of republicans are college educated as well. The difference is they don’t all form their on opinions, many of them have the opinion that their parents tell them to have.
I feel dirty saying this but…
A lot of them reviewed the facts and still came to the same conclusion as their parents. A college education isn’t a guarantee of politics. Some people honestly just see it that way.
I am not saying they are right but I am saying that not all of them are drones just the same that not all of liberals are drones. I’ve seen drones of both variety.
*varieties…
Damn typos.
Not to mention the fact that there do exist some college-educated people who think for themselves and find that in general their beliefs are more conservative, even though their parents’ weren’t.
Agreed. I was actually defending conservatives above by saying that plenty of them are very well educated, many are much smarter than myself.
Then I felt a little dirty so I had to toss in a passive-aggressive comment calling some of them drones…muahaha.
*facepalm*
is true, i was mainly making a poorly worded and very vague reference to the states that typically go democrat – it’s usually the same ones with a higher number of college educated people.
but i know many who tend towards conservatism, though almost always it’s based firmly in religious roots.
anyway, i’m tired so my apologies for any apprent ramblings and/or broken tangents. played wow too long last night, and it’s been a hectic day at work.
I could make the case that liberal college professors do the exact same thing that conservative parents do.
Check the link, if you feel like it. Do those people seem college educated to you?
And then applying confirmation bias to make sure you come up with the right answer.
How would you know? Because a liberal viewpoint can not, by your definition, be logical, and must be delusional? Way to play fair Dhoti. Question our patriotism, question our sanity, anything that let’s you keep on believing that you have the One True Political Faith, and the rest of us our fools. THAT is confirmation bias, which you have demonstrated over and over again, ignoring any facts that don’t fit your world view. And blaming others for the confirmation bias you yourself have, but can’t admit, is projection. There’s another classic psychological concept for you to look up.
Quite an impressive straw man you’ve constructed there. I might go so far as to label it a straw golem, even.
But I love how you have to ride to The Steve’s rescue, rhetorical guns blazing. Of course you can’t take his throwaway PA comment at face value — no, once it’s been said, it must be defended at all costs from the evil hordes. No matter what bizarre position you have to contort yourself into in order to do so.
Look, if you want to follow me around and scream poorly thought out, spit-flecked invectives at whatever I say, that’s fine, I guess, just kind of pointless, and does your “side” no favors. I would think the last thing we need is another Uncle Fester trolling, but hey, what do I know?
Someone said, “I prefer to make rational, fact based decisions,” and you said, “Nuh uh!” but tried to disguise it in psychological terms. Confirmation bias, yeah, you weren’t being a confrontational jerk AT ALL. I pointed out that you were being insulting and mean, but somehow, I am the one contorting myself into bizarre positions? You are being a jerk, then getting angry when someone is does exactly what you are doing. Straw man? Your original argument, “The Steve is a victim of confirmation bias,” is a straw man. You don’t know that, and it does not address anything he said anyhow.
Typical bully behavior, pick a fight and then cry when you end up losing. You should really try being nice, you have no skill at being mean.
You keep using that phrase. I do not think it means, what you think it means.
I say “confirmation bias”, you reply and use it as much as possible. I say “straw man”, you reply and use it as much as possible. I mean, mimicry’s great and all, but not everyone’s good at it.
And don’t flatter yourself — your scathing repartee needs some serious leveling up before it becomes cry-worthy. (Certainly before you use it to declare yourself the winner.)
He’s just using words you’ve used in order to make sure you understand them. There is a definite possibility that if he uses another word, you won’t catch the meaning.
Wow, froo, it’s like you took what I implied in my comment, and stated it explicitly, yet turned it back on me!
Damn! How did you ever manage to pull that off?
Dhoti you seem to be missing Uncle Fester a lot.
He just needs some love.
Are you implying that Fester gave him love, or just that Dhoti needs love in general (even when Fester is around)?
Considering the bum-rushing and verbal rapes inflicted on Dhoti by Fester, and the fact that Dhoti kept egging him on, I’m thinking that Dhoti is sorely in need of some Fester-love.
-
And that sound you hear is the Baby Jesus crying again….
Oh so Dhoti likes it rough. I gotcha.
…on the rare occasions that you actuallly watch it.
Acutaly its Beck that I watch more then O’Riely FYI, and even that is really only his ‘One Thing’. But still, of the maybe 6 times I’ve actually watched an entire O’Riely Factor Bill aproves of Obama on several occasions.
Jesus H. Christ on an effing stick – if you plan to continue tongue-bathing O’Reilly, at least spell his stinking name correctly. Gah! Homeschooling.
you ever notice the trend that people who complain all media is left-biased and only fox is moderate, then refuse to admit it’s all they watch?
sillyness, i tells ya!
Ah, I see. Instead of actually arguing against me, you point out how bad my spelling is, as if me having bad spelling automatically makes my argument wrong. Let me guess, Palin and Bush are only idiots ’cause of their silly accent right?
That pretty well sums up a lot of people’s opinions, I do believe.
In their case it’s not just the accent, they have proven it by their actions. In your case, you have been weighed in the balance and found wanting.
With a penis…
Here I am, all innocently reading along, when BAM!
You had to go and correlate Bush, Palin and penis.
Not that’s just a sh!tty image to put into someone’s head on a Friday afternoon. Thanks ever so much.
People always forget that I am technically a troll.
very small, impotent ones in the case of palin and bush
Oops — apparently my original comment set off the mod filter. Let me try this again, in case the mod turns out to not be a fanboy:
Who cares — as long as it comes with a Twi’lek, even a one-armed, half-footed, psychotic, murdering Twi’lek, I’m game!
the accent is the coup de grâce – their title of idiot comes from what they say and do.
i mean, no offense to southern and whatever accent palin’s got, but certain dialects have a tendency to knock ones apparent intellect, at least for first impressions, just like others carry a more sophisticated demeanor. now, there’s southern accents that just sound adorable or tough as hell, but what bush has lends itself well to the village idiot.
just sayin’…
I think in Bush’s case it is the faulty syntax, and also the occasional illogic, which makes him sound so lacking in mental wattage.
His father would miss-speak at times, and also used to say “I’m the X president” when he was about to un-fund some field or other (like education). But his father managed to do both without sounding like an idiot.
Ann Richards also managed to not sound like an idiot–and goodness knows she had that Texas twang.
Ann Richards had a rolling twang, which falls under the “cute” category. Kind of like a Southern Belle. GWB has a rather base accent, that still rolls, but is a little lower class. I have all the sympathy in the world for him, as I have a weird mixture of Kentucky hillbilly and Texas redneck in my voice, and get made fun of a lot
I have a Southern Gentleman’s purr though that only comes out when I am talking with somebody from the South at work or somebody nice and sweet from the South.
When I get mad or annoyed, I might as well have a mullet, beer, and a trailer. Also, if I am talking to my mom on the phone, I tend to get the same level of MS mud accent…
I’m in a weird mood today. I guess two hours of sleep will do that to you. I’m *still* giggling at the mental image of the Face Stabbing Babies, and now at the image of you with a mullet, a beer, and a trailer. Just make sure the beer is Coors Lite, and the trailer is a single-wide with at least one busted out window and a cat living in the wall.
If you find the idea of me in a mullet amusing, then you have a sick sense of humor and need therapy.
I can see you (in my head) coming to the front door of your broken down trailer, Coors Lite can in hand, the mullet waving in the wind, your wife-beater shirt pulled up a little over your belly……
-
“Lynn! Get yer ass in hyar and cook me some vittles!” you scream over the sound of the dogs barking. Lynn, who is in the front yard, 8 and 1/2 months pregnant, looks up from tinkering with the lawn mower and yells back “I gotta get this damn thing fixed afore it rains! Git you sum bread and slap some jelly on it! Leave me alone!”
One of the dogs is now licking the ketchup off your bare feet, and as it irritates you, you throw the empty beer can into the yard where it hits the pile of empty beer cans next to the old hooptie up on blocks in the driveway.
“Fine, woman. Just remember when you want sum lovin’ that I’m all out!”
You slam the door on your way back in, irritating the cat living in the walls. As the jam is warped, the screen simply hits the frame and rockets back on its spring, hitting the side of the house and making the crack in the living room window just a little bigger.
Just then the school bus pulls up with the rest of the 8 kids finally home from school…….
… I hate how much I am laughing out loud in this quiet area with a coworker nearby who will ask what is funny and I really don’t want to explain. They think I am odd enough as is…
I know what you mean. I’ve said before that when I get stressed and annoyed my Inner Trailer Trash Chick comes out.
Glad I’m not the only one.
Hehe, happy to bring some sunshine and happiness into your day
*can write if she puts her mind to it, but is sadly out of practice* *also knows that this is not her best work* 
If I had the time and energy, I think I’d set up a fansite for the Face Stabbing Babies.
*is still giggling at the imagery of the Face Stabbing Babies*
-
God, people at work thing I’m on crack today!
THINK!!! They THINK I’m on crack!! DAMMIT.
And I was suitably impressed, dear Froofrou.
Regionalist.
I reckon you are correct ma’am…
Being a military brat and moving around so much, my voice kind of conforms to where ever we happen to be living at the time. I came back from Virginia with a slight accent even though we lived on the coast. I didn’t notice it but my teachers and classmates in Indiana. Now I sound like a Midwesterner.
Since I’ve been living down under I’ve picked up a slight Aussie accent. But mostly I have picked up on the lingo (i.e. calling people mate, saying cheers, and it isn’t no, but nuh.) My kids think it’s funny as hell.
Yeah, I agree, lingo definitely comes first. My brother married a Canadian and says “eh” “bum” and other Canadian things.
Oh yeah, we say bum as well.. and whatever you do, if you happen to visit down this way, don’t say “fannie”.
Weirdest accent I’ve ever heard has to be that of a girl who lived here for a few years and ended up with a New Zealand/Scottish accent…. it sounded slightly gaelic at times…
Oh and Gaels’ accents can be a bit amusing but very pretty…
Truly weird accents belong to people from Aberdeen… (Furra boot?)
If Bush had a west or east coast city accent, he would at worst be called a mediocre president, but because of the accent people think southern drawl= REDNECK!!!!! and take things 10x farther than necessary.
it isn’t his accent so much as his way of mangling words into his own language, and his accent isn’t so much a southern drawl as it is a mediocre mockery.
O’ R e i l l y
Not O’Riely. Learn to spell.
It just goes to show the level of intelligence that is required to hang on to Ol’ Bill’s every word. You don’t need to know how to spell, just how to spew back out everything you took in.
Wait a minute. I thought you said up thread that you watch these shows.
It’s variable short-term selective memory. He’s a pro o’riley fan.
I do watch them. The last time I watched MSNBC, which was like…. last night. It was Countdown with Keith Olbermann. I couldn’t stand the biasedness of it. Olbermann is a clown who thinks insulting people on Fox and smearing their names will up his ratings. We all know how that is working. I also watched part of this otehr show a couple days before that and it was just the same garbage that said how wrong republicans were with no real support for the argument. Just a bunch of “Oh well we know that wont work” and “Well thats just stupid” No real reasons WHY they wont work.
can we say been there, done that, and look where it’s gotten us so far?
like trickle down economics? or tax breaks for the upper 10% of tax payers? (like they’re going to spend enough stateside to make a difference with that, hah!) or any of the other ideas they’ve tossed about in the last 6 months or so
That’s… an interesting double standard you have there. O’REILLY (sp!!) calls someone an idiot it’s because they’re an idiot; Olbermann calls someone an idiot it’s because they’re a genius. Ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooof*ckinKAY.
Um, it is a matter of personal regard is what he is saying.
From what I am gathering he is saying that O’Reilly, Beck, and their ilk are basically trolls. When people call them idiots and psychotics, they take it as a compliment.
It is one of those, “note the source of the comments not the comment itself,” situations. You have to remember, the group of them feel we aren’t real Americans to begin with so our opinions can’t damage them.
Oh FFS… it’s O’Reilly with two L’s.. You support him (or at least it looks that way) and you can’t even get his name right..
Lest we forget: Any comment beginning with “You Libs” == WHARRGARBL!
Which makes me think of this. [link]
I was wondering, I know WHARRGARBL is just for far-right bloviation; do we have an equivalent for far-left bloviation?
I mean….it happens.
LBRAGRRAHW?
Oooh, perfect!
(I was inspired to recaption this one myself, DWN.)
This moderate is happy to be of service, ma’am. Gotta keep both sides in line somehow.
And enter the NeoCon’s who are butthurt and saying that anyone disagreeing with them is a Liberal. Just because I’m a democrat does not make me a liberal, there is a difference, and yes I too hate Limbaugh if only for the fact that he’s a facetious sycophant intent on insulting any and all Left wingers, even those of us that sit firmly in the middle of the road.
and yet not one word spoken of the news anchors who insulted everyone who went to the Tea Parties by calling them teabaggers. that’s fair.
SO what? The people who went to those protests deserve no respect, they are sheep being led to the slaughter by their corporate overlords. The rich neo-cons laugh at all of you who are so willing and ready to fight for the rights of the rich. Do you get it? The people who organized those tea parties are LAUGHING at the people who went. Laughing all the way to the bank. They will never let you become rich, you are there to work and slave for them and make them rich. It is their right because they think they are better than you. And you defend them. It is hilarious.
I disagree with that statement, if for no other reason than there were some war protests, green rallies, and other “left-wing” creations that were entirely funded by Soros and the gang, and had paid protesters. From what I hear, it’s ok when your guys do it, but if there is even a hint of Astroturfing from the Right (which I haven’t seen any actual proof of), suddenly we’re Teh Ebil and can’t do anything on our own. It’s frustrating, and beneath you.
“They will never let you become rich, you are there to work and slave for them and make them rich.”
No one “lets” anyone become rich. The reason not everyone is rich is because not even can EVER be rich, if everyone is rich then everyone is poor. The people who become rich do so either through inheritance or by earning the money. No one sits there with a clip board deciding who to “let” be rich.
“The people who went to those protests deserve no respect, they are sheep being led to the slaughter by their corporate overlords.”
Do you know who small business owners are? That demographic is mostly republican and the type of people who went to the tea parties. Do small business owners have corporate overlords? (Seriously, i’m asking you, i want to see your answer on this)
Don’t try to argue with it, dude. It has teh crazee.
Click my name.
Aww, poor lil troll, so hurt and sad. I have a minor mood disorder, but I’m still ten times smarter, more articulate, more interesting, and informed than you. I hope the knowledge of your utter failure burns.
…and I’m in mensa, and I have an IQ of 199, and, and, I know you are but what am I?!?!
I R SO SMRT! SMRT! That spells so SMRT!
rofl!
Ten year olds shouldn’t try to argue on teh interwebs. You look like a fool. All I’m hearing from you is “WAAAAA, I’m losing AGAIN! This can’t be happening, WAAAAA” Losing to a crazee guy, that must hurt.
Dude, really, you need to take a long hard look at yourself.
That is all.
I don’t take advice from morally bankrupt, selfish tools. I’m self actualized and in charge of my own psychological and spiritual growth. I’ve been taking long hard looks at myself everyday since before you were born.
That is all.
In bed… With a penis… With a crazy right wing babe that Portland Mark couldn’t hook up with.
As long as the crazy right-wing babe is liberal left-wing in bed. Conservative policies shouldn’t apply to sex.
Ah, dwn remembers my assertion that uptight right wing babes get the nastiest when the time is right.
Of course I do by happy accident when reading through an older lol.
*backs away slowly with an ebil grin*
*sigh* I am doing this because I care.
LBRAGRRAHW!!!
Knock it off, Seth. If you are better than this, then act like it. It is getting embarassing like watching a guy topless with his team painted on his chest doing a victory dance with his buttcrack showing.
Now that’s funny!
Someone needed to tell him he’s acting like a douchebag, and should take his meds and calm the fu(k down.
Shut up. DWN isn’t on your side because he’s giving someone friendly advice.
NEENER NEENER NEENER… ROFL!
I don’t care who’s on my side. Seth’s acting like an a@@hole, and normally doesn’t.
*uninformed trolling a@@hole
At least Seth only acts like an a@@hole on a rare occasion when someone antagonizes him.
You on the other hand, are the a@@hole antagonist.
Hun, no need for that at all. I never claimed sides nor is Back Away Slowly trying to say I am. We are both people watching somebody act out of character.
He isn’t screaming at anybody, so chill.
And dammit people, quit making me be the mature one here. It… it… Burns dammit!
Sorry. BAS (an appropriate abbreviation, I think) annoys me… I didn’t mean to be as rude…
It’s BSA, and I’m shoving it in his face for a reason.
Dude’s been in meltdown for several days. Not healthy.
Anyone who won’t stand meekly by while being viciously slandered and attacked by trolls must be in ‘meltdown.’ Nice, turn it back on me, rather than going after the people who are acting far worse. You don’t care about fairness, reciprocity, or kindness. Those are just weapons to be used against the infidels, aren’t they?
*shakes head sadly*
Whatever you need to tell yourself to get through the day, dude.
I’m not a fan of people using socks to say how they feel. Do it with your own name, dude. Be grown up about it.
Bas suits you better…
He really is a good guy, just one of those days I suppose.
I get it. Hopefully he does.
Yeah, we all have ‘em.
Nope. I’m having fun, and I’m not doing this for your amusement, I’m doing it for mine. Why should I play fair if they won’t? No amount of rationality is going to be enough to get them to act rational in return. So I open the flood gates, just a little, and I show them what a real beat down looks like. If I see ONE GLIMMER of humanity, rationality, or compassion from them, I will apologize in an instant. Until then, the neo-con trolls deserve nothing but contempt and scorn.
see, i see that as the difference between me and you. I don’t hate anyone just for their beliefs. I dislike people who tear at them for them, but I don’t hate them for believing that their beliefs are right. I don’t like you Seth. not because you’re a liberal or a democrat, but because you don’t think that people who aren’t deserve any kind of respect. you believe that they’re below you. you insult them viciously, slander them, claim that their beliefs are wrong, yet provide no support to your arguments. You say that we aren’t being fair, yet all you’re doing is slinging insults. you don’t want to debate, you just want us to shut up and go along with what you believe, and people aren’t going to do it.
I don’t hate anyone for their beliefs either. I hate it when they act like bullies, and then whine when anyone dares stand up to them.
Ask the regular conservatives here if I respect them. I respect anyone who deserves it. I don’t respect trolls.
This is typical ‘good cop, bad cop’ mode, which you right wingers LOVE to play. One of you goes ape, the other one hangs back to cry ‘unfair’ whenever someone says, “Uh, there’s a vicious ape flinging poo at everyone.”
sorry, I don’t coordinate with people, i just don’t lose my head when people start flinging insults.
“its a simple logic from a simple mind as far as i can see.”
Yeah, you never insult people who are being insulting, you always stay cool as a cucumber, don’t you? How is what you did any different from what I did? Hypocrite.
By that logic, you’re crapping in your hand as a response to seeing a monkey fling poo?
I intended for my last post to be my last on the matter but I just had to confirm that I had read that right with how you are going about it today.
Please clarify.
Damn straight. That is how I’m going about it today. You wouldn’t believe how good it feels. It is just SO satisfying. Sometimes I simply get tired of reigning it in all the time when the other guys won’t even try. Sorry if it disappoints you that I let out my inner a$$hole every now and then.
Fair enough, I will just use this reasoning the next time you try to reign me in.
Any money you’ll feel kinda bad later though…
It’s like eating an entire box of donuts in one sitting. That’s why I try not to do it to much, I may LOVE it in the moment, when my blood is all riled up, but later on I always think,well THAT could have gone better.
And I am shrink wrapping my “Told you so” to maintain freshness. It is what a friend is for. Can’t give a stale version to a good friend, ya know?
I wasn’t too worried. Seth burst onto PK like this almost a year ago. He calmed down eventually and I figured he was just working some stuff out. Everyone has freakout moments. Still, DWN’s a good one to pull you back. Can it be hugz tiem naow?
Hugz time naow. Mean Seth goes back in the mean Seth box, for now…
*hugz and passes out due to allergy meds*
Well I figured the basic consensus was what separates “us” and “them” was the level of civility. The whole lead by example thing.
However, if you want to have a shouting contest, don’t let me get in the way. I am sure you will have much fun going the “No YOU!” route for however long you hold out.
Finally, who said anything about playing fair? If you’re right, you’re right. Slam them with the big stick of logic. However, this isn’t about playing fair, it is about playing smart, which you aren’t doing. You’re just sinking down to a troll level of stupidity and expecting to win against their greater experience.
Also, I am waiting for this real beat down as I have yet to see it. If anything, what I am seeing is “yawn, typical.”
When the beatdown commences, let me know. All I am seeing is LBRAGRRAHW going one way and WHARRGARBL going another. Have fun.
the problem is logic doesn’t work on the internet. Nowadays it hardly works talking face to face. And you got me, I got sucked into it. thank you for being the one to point it out, and thank you for actually trying to be civil. I’m done with this, got better things to do, but its nice to see at least one person trying to keep the peace.
In bed…
God that felt good. The maturity was starting to give me a rash.
Maybe you can get Lynn to apply a nice ointment…to that rash. Yeah, that’s the ticket!
I think it has gone away, I haven’t had to post anything above high school maturity for an hour or so. I should be fine, I hope…
In bed…
FTW.
Ya know, if you put me in the position to be the mature one again, I will remove your ears with a sharpened, petrified penis and jam them up your @ss so you can hear my footsteps as I riverdance on your back…
DWN, may i borrow that threat the next time it’s appropriate to use, not here of course, but elsewhere? it is absolutely delicious in the visuals.
You certainly may, my dear with my humblest blessings.
“Teh Crazee”
That is such an informed, understanding way of summarising the complexities of people’s lives…
Ya know, if he was talking about me, it would have made sense.
I never once mentioned anything to do with the Tea parties. Did I? No. Do not go around putting words in my mouth. I personally think it was interesting that they used the Boston Tea Party as their backdrop, and thought it clever and witty, while not fully supporting the idea. I didn’t approve of the media harping on the people who went to them, I thought it was stupid, but I don’t watch those kind of shows anyway, Right or Left.

And geez guys, lol, I start a thread, go away for a day for work, come back, and I see all hell breaking loose. I feel… what is this dark tingle? Muahahahaha.
~~~~~~~~
>> that is all.
For the sake of accuracy and diplomacy, I have recaptioned this. My stuff is linked as always.
Love yours! 5′d & fave’d.
I do like a meta-lol from time to time and this felt like the right time.
LMAO Ditto that.
““You never had any argument to counter. Your ‘argument’ is ‘Waaaaah, I don’t WANNNA pay taxes, I’m a big boy now and you can’t tell me what to do! WAAAAAAH!’”
I’m in favor of branding that on the asses of all the teabaggers, actually.”
ran out of space to reply.
that’s not answering my question. i asked for some facts to back up your assertion that no one attended the Tea Parties. can you produce them or not? you’re the one saying we have no argument, prove that you do.
You have no argument. If you think you do, PRESENT IT. Because I haven’t heard anything rational from you are any other teabagger. If you think a lot of people went to the tea parties, get me some facts.
You haven’t earned my respect, so don’t whine that you aren’t getting it.
well, you aren’t providing any facts either. so how are you better than me? I don’t feel you’ve said anything rational either, just sounds like you’re insulting anyone who doesn’t agree with you.
I’m insulting anyone who is BEING INSULTING. Tit for tat is fair play. You are a hypocrite to whine about it. That is just typical right wing behavior, troll in the nastiest way possible, then act shocked and butt-hurt when someone dares to fight back. Just like bullies everywhere.
how was i insulting again? remind me.
You weren’t being insulting. And I wasn’t insulting you, per se, unless you choose to identify with the LABELS I am insulting, or the trolls. Do you identify with those labels? Are those trolls your friends?
you’re insulting everyone who attended the Tea Parties. I identify with them as Americans. I identify with them in that I don’t like the direction this country is headed in. So yes, if you want to look at it like that, you are insulting me.
Okay, you don’t like the direction the country is headed in. I can respect that. I don’t like the vast redistribution of wealth that has given the top 20% nearly all of the increase in wealth in this country for the last thirty years. Look at any graphs of real wages, look at graphs of productivity and GDP. What will you see? The lowest fifth got poorer. The middle class stayed the same. The rich got richer. The very rich became insanely rich. They didn’t create that wealth, the workers did. Wealth doesn’t come from shuffling imaginary money around. It comes from making things that people want.
So, are you saying you want to give the fat cats even more of a break? Is that what you are protesting about? Because making the rich richer for the last thirty years HAS NOT made the rest of us any wealthier. A rising tide DOES NOT lift all ships. Proven fact.
Oh wait, “its a simple logic from a simple mind as far as i can see.” That is insulting. Sure, it is ‘tit for tat,’ but that is all that I was doing as well. You can’t claim the moral high ground.
yeah, i’ll admit, i get frustrated when people use simple logics like that, but at least i try to stay civil, and saying he has a simple mind doesn’t even begin to compare with the insults you’re flinging. if you want to say its tit for tat, then don’t take an arm for scratch. his comment reminds me of an episode of 2 Stupid Dogs. do you remember that from when you were a child?
his comment made me think of this episode.
His comment? That was my comment. So, I see how this works. It is okay for you to be a jerk, because I deserved it. However, I can’t be a jerk, because I’m wrong. Your self-serving justifications and rationalizations are transparent. You know that, right? No, you don’t know that, there’s a total logical disconnect in your head. You can behave in the exact same way as someone else, but they are bad and wrong for behaving that way while you are fair and balanced.
Ya know, this could have been more realistic if it had been Pelosi and Palin. Two high ego people from both ends of the spectrum.
It would be like Dark Matter having sex with normal Matter. The logic problem would be trying to decide which you would call Dark Matter… I know I can’t decide.
And the line for deciding which is which starts here.
If Pelosi and Palin had sex…Pelosi would definitely be the one pitching. Then the universe would collapse.
/sidenote – I would totally do Palin if she promised not to talk….ever.
Personally I think it would be angry wrestling to see who is on top sex, instead of one over the other.
Does any person commenting on this entire thing realize it’s a JOKE? Limbaugh, Beck, and Hannity would all agree THEMSELVES that they have big egos. It’s just kind of funny. Snicker a bit, and move on. Really, you folks are taking yourselves a smidge too seriously, and taking this whole thing a bit too personally.
(And, sheesh, it would just take Limbaugh to destroy that bus; that gasbag could blow any second. I wonder, is OxyContin flammable…?)
The joke is a subset of he discussions that ensue. Sometimes the joke falls flat, and sometimes the joke opens up an entirely new realm of discussion.
like a parfait
or like that container in the back of the fridge that you can’t remember the last time you ate out and brought home the left-overs?
Now, everybody loves a parfait. Unless you make it with beef and onions and peas.
wouldn’t that be stew in a glass then?
Meat trifle. Seriously. They’re good with peas.
almost everything is good with peas (must be fresh baby peas tho, none of those overgrown canned ones)
I bet that the exact same joke but with the names “Olberman, Maddow, and Garafolo” would not make it to the front page. Just a hunch.
I’d think it funny, lol, but then again I think all political reporters on both sides are full of hot air. So…
Link to your “nonbiased” media. They aren’t even pretending. By the way, how’s that working out for newsweek? Let’s find out in a second link.
ppl defending those assholes? roflwaffle!
Would you like some bacon with that waffle? =D
no but i would like some bacon lube with my waffles btdubz waffles way better then pancakes
What I find hilarious is the fact that you hear about the “Liberal media bias” where? On the tv, radio, newspaper, etc. aka, the media. Now, if the media was biased in one way or the other, would they go around telling everyone they were? OR would they go around telling everyone that they’re biased in the opposite direction that they actually are just to make people hate those that oppose their viewpoints.
In my honest opinon if your a full blown Liberal your an idiot and if your a full blown Conservative your an idiot. Yes Fox News is biased just like MSNBC and anyother news out there. Instead of just taking one side or the other listen to all of the facts then decide how YOU feel not how you should feel. Just because a people like Limbaugh for example may feel one way about something doesn’t mean you have to feel the same way. I am neither Republican or Democrat, Conservative or Liberal. I think for myself and the only thing that I would consider myself is Human. But on the subject of the pic I have to say that I like it, it made me laugh alot. Not because of affiliation but because of sense of humor.
Dear God, I hate Limbaugh and Beck with a passion…
