Careful. Anderson Cooper says "it's hard to talk when you're tea-bagging".

That would go a long way towards explaining why Rappy and Wulfie can't type out a coherent sentence, though...

-_- Where oh where is the one Richard Nixon when you need him? All this stuff were going through, goes back to one President Carter, the idiot who "Turned the country around" so many times, we dug ourselves deeper. Frankly, what we got going on NOW is a culmination of idiocy in presidents since Nixon. So what if the dude didnt tell everyone everything, you wanna see what happenes when everyone kniows everything? *Spreads hands* Look, look at the frut of everything that's been done by, and too BOTH parties the last 40-50 years. And the tea party? *scoffs* this aint the colonies, and most deff not Soviet China, cus if it were, 90% of everyone with half a brain would be killed. I'm listed as a Rep, yes, but guess what i vote on the PERSON, NOT THE PARY. I been saying it, "Political parties will lead to the death of the Union." - George Washington's "Farewell address" I vote person, not party, cus in the end, the U.S. has been around over 200 years, and history shows, all so called "Great Democracy's" die at around 200 years. The Greatest military might in HISTORY, The Romans, were a democracy, they fell, then the invaders moved in. But according to some nut in some random states, the worlds gonna end in like sept or oct or something. *rolls eyes, coughs "bull shit"*

Really, think about it. It would be hard to dream up a more clueless bunch of morons (and that's an insult to morons) anywhere. Wulf is so language-challenged he can only post music and movie video clips. Rappy can only quote Limbaugh, or some equally fatuous right-winger. And Kaneman? His dick is smarter than he is, his GF is a cunt, and he brags about it.

Given that the followers are so mentally challenged, what does that say about the philosophy?



Fuck YEAH.

Can I just make this entire passage my signature?

Happy, I hear little from "reasonable" conservatives here, and the others here are only worthy of mocking, they aren't capable of reasoning or being reasonable. Blamestorming happens no matter how reasonable I am or anyone else is. Facts are ignored in favor of partisan name hurling. It seems as if you want me to be civil and pleasant to people who have no intention of being civil or pleasant to anyone they disagree with, so why should I bother? I still remain more civil than them, despite how you see things.

I address individual posts reasonably when reasonableness is offered. That's where I stand. As to generalizing, my gawd, who generalizes more about liberals than our most vocal "conservatives"?? If you want to talk about enraging " those more stubborn or gullible into an unbalanced 'blamestorming' session", you should address your remarks to Mike or Sig, both of whom respond to even the few reasonable posts put up by our right-wingers; I've address their posts reasonably when they've made good points, and even agreed with them from time to time.

To address your remark about "broad strokes": Raptor and Kane ARE transparent, are you saying they're not? The GOP DOESN'T have a moderate candidate, and they're not likely to; nobody is willing to go up against the Tea Party, which in reality IS a small minority of the electorate.

The right DOES absolutely refuse to consider anything that might cost them or those they actually work for a penny, and their refusal makes compromise impossible

Raptor DOES go after California, every chance he gets and often when he has nothing of substance to say.

I responded to Wulf's post by telling him I and other liberals HAVE agreed to cuts in entitlements.

I believe the stupidity of the extremists here DOES reflect people like them in the Tea Party. That in no way means I believe everyone in the Tea Party, or every Republican is as stupid as the extremists, but there certainly are those among them who think like ours here.

I WOULD enjoy watching what would happen if the Tea Party and right-wing extreme conservatives allowed the debt ceiling not to be raised--in another universe. I don't want it to happen to ANYONE, because I think they'd be dismayed by the result when they discovered how it affected them personally and what it did to the country...but I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy in reality.

And I DO believe the Tea Party is doomed. Every single extremist movement has died when people realized just how extreme they were, it's a pendulum swing.

That addresses my remarks in my last post, if it's to that you are referring. I stand by what I said and say, again, it's nothing compared to the broad brush with which liberals are painted here.

You want examples of "broad brush strokes" along WITH personal attacks?

Hating the TEA party is essentially hating America, hating freedom, and pretty much all that's worth while with this great country.

The childish temper tantrum being thrown is from the inexperienced, clueless community activist, who is in W A Y over his head here, and it shows.

Glad you've chosen your side.

I think Niki is really upset over whats going on with so-called "entitlements".

If we start cutting back, and we really need to, people like her would actually...*GASP*.. have to get a JOB!.

Oh the humanity!! Won't someone think of the leeches?!!

I do believe the GOP is kowtowing to these people out of fear for their re-election.


Well, one can only hope they're kowtowing and scared. It was the RINOs, the country club GOP crowd, who sat idly by while Dodd and Frank and company from the Dems cause the demise of our economy, w/the Fannie / Freddie debacle. Those go along- get along types on the Right should be held partially accountable was well.

The only ones BEING reasonable ARE the GOP ! That's what is so head explodingly frustrating, is hearing you spout these lies and asinine comments.

Obama spent us into this mess, he needs to grow a pair and face the music. ObamaCare needs to be immediately repealed. We need to dissolve the Dept. of Education, Dept. of Agriculture, and do away with DHS, for a start.

Economy of effort, however if they would PREFER an individual response, they'll get it, but fair warning that it's ever so likely to be even less gentle than those words.

Personal ? sure - when a faction bases its entire philosophy on the destruction of all I hold dear, you bet your ass it's personal, and make no mistake, they're so-called-leadership, if you can call the pack of nutters in charge of it such, makes no bones about it, thus anyone who cheeringly supports it, regardless of their pathetic denials, supports those actions, ergo...

Hell yes, it's fuckin personal.

My comment was a bit impulsive and affected by tiredness and frustration, but sometimes (and more often lately) that is how I feel. It certainly doesn't apply to you exclusively. In general I'd consider you a 'lessor offender' (for lack of a better term) in that respect, but it's more disappointing because I consider you to be fairly reasonable.

Ever wonder why there aren't many active 'reasonable' conservative posters? RWED isn't especially friendly to them. Not that it's especially friendly to anyone. All my post in this thread are pointless anyway and I never should have posted that first comment. You can consider it all a rant.

"Partially accountable" - yes, only *partially*, right? Despite the fact that your beloved GOP had control of the White House and BOTH houses of Congress from 2000-2006, and despite the fact that Dodd and Frank had zero to do with any collapse, since they chaired no committees at the time (those were all chaired and headed by REPUBLICAN members of Congress, since they were in control of both houses!)...

"Partially accountable" - despite the fact that Bush's profligate spending was more than triple what Obama has spent, and Bush's was piled on top of more spending by more Republicans over the generations, going back to Reagan and before.

But yeah, you're willing to assign them "partial" responsibility.

I'm sure you only consider al-Qaeda "partially accountable" for 9/11, too.

You guys spent us into a deep, deep hole with your idiotic wars and tax cuts for the richest of the rich, and now your idea of "compromise" is to let the poor pay the costs of your stupidity. And you call that "reasonable".

How "reasonable" are the so-called conservatives around here to the progressives? I've dealt with the name-calling and worse, up to and including outright death threats. So really, where are the "reasonable" conservatives?

And how come you never chide those so-called conservatives about the width of their brushes?
