It's telling us to vote for PALIN in 2012.

What the FUCK google ads.

Well she does have the qualifications to be a news analyst now...

But WTH would she be running for?

Oh come on! She has the experience to lead a nation! I mean, she served on the Wasilla city council for 4 years and was the mayor for 6. And this is a major city of about 5,500 people!! Then she was Alaska's governor for a half a term!

And she doesn't use a teleprompter. She's old school. She writes notes on her hand!

She's had more executive experience than Obama, who built his career merely on community agitation and avoiding controversial votes.

No matter how much mud you throw at the horse, it will still look better than the brainless nag.

And what was the one thing they harped on Obama about? His lack of experience. Now it'll be a good thing when the Republicans talk about it. You watch. The spin machine will be in full swing.

She's an energetic, forthright Washington-outsider who still has more leadership experience than our disaster of a president.

You guys are just grouchy because you can't reconcile your desire to bang her with your fear and hatred for all things good and sensible in the world.

I laid into a buddy about this who was trying SO HARD to convince me she was just so ready to lead this nation. It's so blindly hypocritical it just pisses me off. This lady is the WORST candidate for them to go with for so many reasons but when they tout her "experience"? Barf.

Oddly enough I could get into a frenzy over this. Few things make me get really pissed off but the blind, hypocritical support of this fame hungry, sorority girl, piss poor politician just makes me raaaaaaaaaaaaaaage.

Eh, I probably blew it when I accused Dave of "hating and fearing all that is good and sensible." I'm sure at that moment the light went on and he said, "Ok, GB's trollin'." This thread was just such a delicious target, I couldn't resist.

Yeah, anyway, Palin's not the worst candidate ever put up by either party, but she's not what is needed, and she won't win. Of course, what's needed is a Libertarian... but they won't win either.

Of course during the election that was merely flipped around by democrats so I guess the hypocrisy goes every which way huh? It's that sort of hypocrisy on both sides that just has me fed up with politics right now.

I wish I had more to say, but I feel like I've said it a hundred times. Sum it up to me feeling sorry for those who want a serious Republican party. As it stands now, there's not a whole lot to take seriously.

I don't remember Obama being touted as a Washington Outsider nearly as much as Palin.

And Palin gives us plenty of reasons to think she's a dolt other than her lack of experience.

See, I knew this would be the ultimate consequence of GW Bush's presidency. Not the middle east conflicts, or terrorism, or any of that garbage. The worst thing to come out of his presidency is that now we have to put up with these 'straight talking', good ol' boy/girl, frat-house/sorority-house dumb-as-a-box-of-rocks good-looking jerkwads who think they can just schmooze their way into higher office.

Sad thing is, a great many probably will.

Obama has a background in Constitutional Law and graduated from Harvard magna cum laude.

Sarah Palin has a Bachelor's degree in communications which took her 7 years from 5 different colleges (she went to the University of Idaho twice).

Obama has a background in advocacy and working with poor and civil rights.

Sarah Palin has a nice ass.

I could keep going about Obama but I'm pretty much done with all Sarah's positive traits.

I just can't believe American media... The next day after that pitch, Good Morning America was talking to "Fashion Experts" saying that he should have been wearing skinny jeans.

2. He's in his mid-forties. Why the hell should he be wearing teenager clothes.

And became editor of the Harvard Law Review, despite not publishing a single article in it. Pattern?

Much like Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton.

From Politico

In Obama's time, as it is today, the Harvard Law Review was one of the most important and distinguished legal publications in the world. Founded in 1887, it is the rare self-supporting legal publication compiled and edited completely by students, typically those attending their second or third year at the prestigious school.
After winning a spot on the Review, Obama beat out 18 other contenders to become the first African-American president in the then-103-year history of the Review, and his duties included leading discussions and debates to determine what to print from the mountain of submissions from judges, scholars and authors from across the country, supervising the thorough editing of each issue's contents and giving every article what's known as a \"P-read\" once it was finally considered ready for publication.

Once a piece is set, the president also sends a letter or fax and makes a follow-up phone call to each author. Federal Judge Michael W. McConnell, who was nominated by President Bush and has frequently been mentioned as one of Bush’s potential Supreme Court nominees, recalls receiving one such letter and call in early 1990 for his article “The Origins and Historical Understanding of Free Exercise of Religion.”

McConnell told Politico, “A frequent problem with student editors is that they try to turn an article into something they want it to be. It was striking that Obama didn’t do that. He tried to make it better from my point of view.” McConnell was impressed enough to urge the University of Chicago Law School to seek Obama out as an academic prospect.

I think Dave and Charlie have pretty much said what I am thinking atm. These fine gentlemen have hit the nail on the head.

So "I think we would have been worse off under McCain than Obama" is now a right wing nutjob talking point position? Interesting.

But what you three are really saying is "we can't deal with information contrary to our position, so instead we will belittle the medium in which the information is delivered, and that way we can look smart without actually having to address the opposition."

Oh it was most definitely a bad thing. The reason the Democrat party was swept into power in 2006 was because voters, even conservative voters, had become disgusted with republicans "spending like drunken democrats" (if only they knew, eh?), and in particular bush budgets that bloated over the trillion dollar mark with new drug entitlements and other discretionary spending. No matter you be on the left or the right, being compared to Bush was not a favorable comparison : The left hated him for the war on terror, the right hated him for... well, what I just said. You don't get Bushesque approval numbers because everybody's mad at you for just one thing.

As for the campaign, if there's anything we can definitely take away from the Obama presidency is that what you say during the campaign is in no way indicative of where your loyalties and priorities lie... you say what you think you need to say to get elected. Previous to his run for the presidency, McCain was the poster child for RINOs, often called "the liberal media's favorite republican" for his repeatedly demonstrated tendency to break ranks and cross the aisle. Plus, there was McCain-Feingold and McCain-Kennedy... neither of which exactly got him any conservative brownie points.

It is the internet. It doesn't have to be a full paragraph.

No wonder it looks like a wall to you, it's more along the lines of a tower of text.

3) What size is your monitor? If you're running at 1440x900... which is what I'd expect a 19 inch or less monitor to be.. if you're running a 22" or larger monitor, you probably aren't at native resolution.

Yeah, people hate huge amounts of text and nobody reads them. That's why all scientific journals just copypasta twitter feeds, and why Harry Potter sold so horribly.

It's a forum, not IRC. Discussion often merits lots of words. Complaining about lots of words is asinine - it's the 1-sentence snark posts that should get the ire. Hell, I remember when it took at least 5 paragraphs of 10 sentences each to merit a TL;DR... there has been quite the dumbing down around here since then I guess.

Oh damn. How did I miss that opening?

Look, if you want to obfuscate your point by rambling in 7 sentences what could be said in two, that is your problem, not mine. It isn't "dumbing down" to use clear and concise sentences.

I'll make it clear for you. If I have to read run on sentences that don't make sense, you can argue with yourself. I know how much you like having someone to argue with though.

I have no problem reading 20 paragraphs that are worth reading. But yours are just nonsense and blather. THAT is the problem. Krisken's only mistake was trying to get you to stop being a jabbering idiot and actually make sense for your own benefit. That will never happen, he is so naive. In the end you have always believed and will always believe that more words= correctness.

And be serious except for the times when he's singing back up for you, you ignore Covar too because he never has anything worthwhile to say. Also the only people you really pay attention to are the ones who disagree with you so that you can whip out the wall o text and bore them into submission.

This thread stopped being a genuine debate when you pulled the TLDR out over 7 sentences. Since, it's just devolved into an exercise in absurdity, during which I have no problems with ad hominems since your fallacy has already derailed the train.

That's not a spectrum. It's also an impossibility because any measure of happiness must be bought at the expense of the misery of others. Including that bed your spectrum is going to use, being as it is made from wood from a rainforest by indentured, underpaid labor.

That was pretty impressive. I gave up trying to actually argue points with you years ago when i figured out that all you do is counter with crap... an endless flow of it. I would like to see you make a concise point minus the pork and minus the insults. That would be a nice change of pace. Ad-hominem is where you argue against a person instead of their argument. I point out that the person isn't making an argument. So, it isn't ad-hominem. The name calling against your opponent is your thing. You are the ad-hominem king.

Especially in this thread. Instead of admitting that you bloat your posts with nonsense you are attacking what my social life? Really? That's pretty funny coming from a guy who lives in computer RPGs. And your hyperbole attack just like your ad-homs and pissy attack and retreat falls flat as anything but pathetically funny.

I know myself all too well faults and all. You are merely ego-maniacal and blind to your own failings. Now this is just an online forum so who really gives a shit I hope in your actual life you are more self-aware.

edit- oh and i always offer evidence of your nonsense and blather. You just don't listen.

See how much easier that is to follow when you break it up? It's still insane, but at least each point you are attempting to make isn't a jumbled mess of filler.

That's right, keep insisting it's funny. "I'm LAUGHING I'M LAUGHING THAT MEANS I'M WINNING SEE? SEE?!" It doesn't fool anybody. It hasn't for years. It's cliche.

The rest of my time is taken up by friends, family, and a significant other. Where's your significant other, makare? No husband, no boyfriend, not even a fuckbuddy? Why's that? Are you incredibly unattractive? Or is it because you spend more time in IRC than I do at work? Or is there another crushing flaw in you that prevents you from finding love and companionship? Does your complete social disability make you "laugh because it's so funny" that your only interaction is with fake people on the internet, when even the Gas Freakin' Bandit can find someone who loves him?

If you think I sit around chatting sociably for 3 hours a night in Warhammer, you're very mistaken. I actually type as little as possible, we use ventrilo. Why? Because we're playing a TEAM GAME. We're trying to beat the other team. It's not a social club.

Furthermore, even the most reclusive of board denizens has, at some point or another around here, referenced their personal life. We know who is married, who isn't, who has a boy or girlfriend, who has kids, who's gotten divorced, who's got daddy issues, who's a drunken womanizer, and even a case or two of sexual assault and one admission of STD. Hell, even me, the guy who refuses to comingle his offline life with his online activities, still is known to be hitched. Meanwhile, despite allllll the hours you've spent interacting with all these people online... you've shared nothing. But the mask has slipped once or twice. I've seen it in IRC, where you clue us in to the fact that there's nothing to share. For whatever reason, you don't go out and do stuff with people. We can only guess at the cause, but it's plain to anyone who spends half an hour with you that you don't have a fulfilling life, and you get your social acceptance via slashnet.

I have pointed out the faults in your posts with specificity many times. You just don't pay attention or care.

Click to expand...

You use that so often it's been a recursion. Maybe that's what it is, you ONCE posted a link or something to refute me, and then you constantly reference it, or the last time you referenced it, or the last time you referenced your referencing it... so that you never have to do so again. I don't know, I'm just grasping at straws here to try and work out your particular brokenness.

Or you accuse me of being, what was it, capricious? And then run off to work.

Click to expand...

Oh yes, how flighty and random of me to... you know... do my job when something actually requires my attention. What a wild and unpredictable person I am. I only said you were capricious once, and it was only saying you seemed capricious that afternoon (not that you are a capricous person, because you're actually usually rather muted, mundane and predictable, which is why your capriciousness at the time did surprise me a little), because you went, within 10 minutes, from constantly saying how full of shit I am to trying to have me cradle you in my manly arms. I used "capricious" because it sounded nicer than "bipolar." But I'm thinking the latter probably suits you better, seeing as how it invokes the specter of psychological dysfunction.

You're on more than that.

I don't think we have ever talked about my family, friends or relationships so you wouldn't know anyway. I could be the toast of the town and you wouldn't be aware

Click to expand...

If you are, your town sure values shut-ins. Then again, it IS in South Dakota, so maybe they do. The really telling part here, however, is that there's no denial coming out of you, just vague attempts at mystery through omission.

If you are expecting me to outline my social life in a whiny attempt to say "see see YOU'RE WRONG" that is just a further example of how I know you, and you don't know me at all. I don't actually think you live in an RPG but that is a chat like thing you are involved in so keep the pot calling the kettle black thing to a minimum.

Click to expand...

If you think I sit around chatting sociably for 3 hours a night in Warhammer, you're very mistaken. I actually type as little as possible, we use ventrilo. Why? Because we're playing a TEAM GAME. We're trying to beat the other team. It's not a social club.

Furthermore, even the most reclusive of board denizens has, at some point or another around here, referenced their personal life. We know who is married, who isn't, who has a boy or girlfriend, who has kids, who's gotten divorced, who's got daddy issues, who's a drunken womanizer, and even a case or two of sexual assault and one admission of STD. Hell, even me, the guy who refuses to comingle his offline life with his online activities, still is known to be hitched. Meanwhile, despite allllll the hours you've spent interacting with all these people online... you've shared nothing. But the mask has slipped once or twice. I've seen it in IRC, where you clue us in to the fact that there's nothing to share. For whatever reason, you don't go out and do stuff with people. We can only guess at the cause, but it's plain to anyone who spends half an hour with you that you don't have a fulfilling life, and you get your social acceptance via slashnet.

I have pointed out the faults in your posts with specificity many times. You just don't pay attention or care.

Click to expand...

You use that so often it's been a recursion. Maybe that's what it is, you ONCE posted a link or something to refute me, and then you constantly reference it, or the last time you referenced it, or the last time you referenced your referencing it... so that you never have to do so again. I don't know, I'm just grasping at straws here to try and work out your particular brokenness.

Or you accuse me of being, what was it, capricious? And then run off to work.

Click to expand...

Oh yes, how flighty and random of me to... you know... do my job when something actually requires my attention. What a wild and unpredictable person I am. I only said you were capricious once, and it was only saying you seemed capricious that afternoon (not that you are a capricous person, because you're actually usually rather muted, mundane and predictable, which is why your capriciousness at the time did surprise me a little), because you went, within 2 sentences, from constantly saying how full of shit I am to trying to have me cradle you in my manly arms. I used "capricious" because it sounded nicer than "bipolar." But I'm thinking the latter probably suits you better, seeing as how it invokes the specter of psychological dysfunction.[/QUOTE]

I do not post links to refute your points because as I have said, twice now, you just keep blathering crap. So what I do is point out that you blather crap. I freely admit that. Most of the time your nonsense is pretty obvious anyway. Im just trying to make you a better more coherent poster Gas.

I haven't had much reason to talk about my personal life on the forum it's true, but I do talk about it on IRC. So the people on there have heard what I have "had to tell". I am not going to play the I'm this, I have that, I've done this card just so you can turn around and use it against me. I know that play. I'm not new at this.

Im not sure why you would call me bi-polar though... that one has me at a loss. Well done.

I'm glad you guys know nothing about me.

That afternoon, you were acting pretty manic-aggressive. I come in the irc and get about 1 sentence out before you go on a six-carriage-return tirade about how full of shit I am... and then within one page you're then trying (unsuccessfully) to snuggle me. Sounds pretty bipolar to me. But like I said, that's not normally how you act, and I made mention that it was out of the ordinary at the time. Your regular damage is of a much more staid and low key nature.

Heh, that's comedy. And coincidence! In my sentence about what we know about everyone, I had started naming names (but went back and deleted that part), and my line about you was "We know a great deal about all kinds of people, ranging from Dave "my life is an open e-book, please come stalk me" Nihsen to ...."

Synchronicity, that.

Aw you sly sweet talker you.

I have refuted you in the past you know BEFORE I learned about the crap thing. That's my point. I learned those lessons so well.

It doesn't seem like the politico-commentator wannabe who studied history and works at a radio station should make snide remarks about the life choices of others, but I could be wrong.

I don't snuggle buddy, I cuddle. And I generally like to cuddle. But I had good reason for attacking you that day. You had it coming.

Most people DO know you are full of crap though. It's less a "and everybody knows it" cop out and more a "come on, even you have to see it" kind of thing.

That must be why I think you are a de de de.

I don't want you. I couldn't. you have been irreversibly contaminated by redhead. There's no way around that.

My social life is fine. My sex life might not be all I want it to be, but that's not abnormal. I have my gaggle of law school friends who are crazy-ass bitches like me and it's fantastic. To be fair, sometimes I don't think Robin exists either. No one is that nice.

So I have a great social life, education and future... AND I can make a concise, coherent point. I have it all.

Sure, you deny it, but you always come back, clumsily trying to foist your wiles upon me. But I am iron, I am a rock. I cannot be swayed. Not that you make it difficult or anything.

Keep telling yourself that. Whatever keeps you warm at night, in the cold, empty, quiet house.

Me so lonely gas. Come love me long time.

Just soak in alcohol and fire first to purge you of that redhead.

Gaggle of crazy ass bitches is no understatement. They are weird even my book. Although I am still probably the weirdest... excuse me MOST crazy-assed.

I would have to be to go to law school. Two things you must be to survive law school 1- a masochist 2- crazy-assed

Seriously though, don't flatter yourself. I hoist my wiles on most people. You're nothing special.
