You realize Auraptor that by not replying to this post anything more from you about "the economy" is just road kill???

I officially declare Auraptor's views on the economy as "road pizza".

You see, by keeping this bubbled up to the top, Unwrapped CAN'T post in RWE. He HAS to pretend he hasn't seen it and that that's why he's not responding. And - it works! Have you seen him here lately?
Plus, I have to admit, this is a fun game, for me.
I like playing with my food.

As I mentioned before, I'm not here to convince Slick, Zero, Unwrapped or any of them. I also see that everyone else here has some better combination of wit, hope, outrage, facts, logic, insight ... whatever it takes to engage evil people every day. I read those posts and sit in silent wonder and awe at the things I can't mimic, but only appreciate.
I post my brief collections of facts and responses b/c I CAN'T let propaganda go unchallenged. And it's meaningless to me whether it changes anyone's mind. I know better but I just can't help myself. (Trolls - that's a hint. If you want to get to me, that's the key.)
So, other than appreciating all you master musicians who improvise so wonderfully on themes, and posting my brief factoids, I play games. I like to set logic traps, probe the idiots to see whose right-wing response they're parroting now, check out which set of disinformation techniques they're willing to use (and get an idea of who's a professional, and who's a clumsy amateur), and things on that order.
Maybe if I get more time and patience I'll rejoin in a substantive debate.

Quote:Ok, I'll lift Auraptor off the road, reconstitute him with some water and CPR and let you play a little longer! But if we want to really play, we need to let 'Rap come up for air once in a while. Otherwise I'll have to play devil's advocate.

OTOH I might do a better job advocating their viewpoint. It might actually be fun....
BTW- did you notice that Geezer had not posted since he admitted that Bush lied?
Geezer, COME BACK! WE MISS YOU!!!

Don't piss in my face and tell me it's raining.
... Oh, go ahead anyway. It makes for a good discussion!

Careful now Rue. Too many more of your "nicknames" and people may start treating your posts like PN's.

So people with disenting opinions are evil and stupid? Without the "Devil's Advocate", RWED would turn into a Democrates only back slapping club.

More name calling and judgement. I had a lively discussion going on in another thread which I never got a response to. Maybe I should have just kept bumping the thread and taunting the other participant. The discussion ended and I moved on to other topics.
Now I am preparing myself for my new "nickname" as I had the temerity to question you. Please make it a good one though it could prove to be quite challenging.
De-lurking to stir stuff up.

Quote:Don't care. But if you REALLY want to see where I live, read my informational posts with studies, original documents, research and the like. For recent examples: http://www.fireflyfans.net/thread.asp?b=18&t=21049 , http://www.fireflyfans.net/thread.asp?b=18&t=7803 , and http://www.fireflyfans.net/thread.asp?b=18&t=20587 . You'll see it's usually the last post in a thread. Then Slick et al slink away like cowards, only to reappear a few days later in another thread with another version of the same old same old crap. Those posts don't convince the idiots of anything. Fact, reason, logic, DON'T WORK WITH THEM. That's why I've given up dealing with THEM, specifically, and spend my time giving them nicknames, baiting them, probing their responses etc.

Quote:No, only people who post tripe that can be dismissed with a simple google search.
So people with dissenting (sic) opinions are evil and stupid?
Quote:You missed the point. I DON'T DISCUSS ANYTHING WITH THEM. The reason to keep bumping is that it works like bug repellant.
