Being such sore losers negates much of the sympathy Liberals would get
from independents this political season.

No one wants to vote for angry Democrats who wag their middle finger at voters yelling, "Why are you too stupid to vote for me?"


..and..
Six months after Obama's health care bill passed, insurance companies are dropping child-only policies before the new law requires them to cover sick children, enraging health care advocates.

Moosie:

No, I am starting to agree with you about FOX, but I still feel like I need to hear out all opinions. Just because I am gonna watch doesn't mean I will start believing Obama is Muslim. I do appreciate your opinions though. Just wanted to clarify that I'm not saying FOX is not evil.

This is a very good point.

Show me even one instance where a conservative man was verbally abusive with a liberal woman on this forum - even one example


Hi Lois, I’m thinking of several girls on the left leaning side of moderate…but I’m failing to recall any conspicuous and ardently liberal women, here, since P.J. Nolen was relieved of her membership several years ago. Who have I forgotten?

Insulting is not the issue. Insulting is fine. Vulgarity is not. I am making a distinction.

I am glad that you realize that it is your distinction. I also could do without the barrage of vulgarities, though I don't mind the occasional use for emphasis, but I fail to see how insults are less offensive or how the use of one means that you are still civilized, while the use of another means that you aren't.

So calling people cry babies is okay?

or

stupid, or moron, or someone who likes to take it up the rear as Skip has.

Is that okay?

I agree here wholeheartedly. If your points are stated clearly and calmly no matter what side your on, they hold value in my opinion. But insulting points of argument get my eyes rolling.

P.J. Nolen was banned for being excessively insulting… and advocating vandalism in 2006. I believe her husband resigned out of fear! ( Fear of Patty)

Edit: but we didn't know of her ballad

Democrat brainstorming sessions usually get one suggestion of
"Lets just arrest everyone who works at Fox News." Many nod and
agree it'd sure help a lot.

You Fox News scum are all under arrest!

Your link is awesome! Definitely off topic but sweet nonetheless. Why have I never heard of Jim Stafford? Fun act for sure.

Is that a thread where we talk about him being kinda crazy cuz I'm interested. Gimme a link.

But I guess on-topic my stance is: I'll still watch FOX but definitely don't hold everything they say as true.

I can't find even one example wherein you guys ever acted like that when speaking with a liberal woman on this forum.

This is literally the equivalent of a drunk, obnoxious black man wielding a club being kicked out of a restaurant and yelling "this is cause I'm black isn't it?!?"

No it is not. Your analogy does not even make any sense. In the example you cited, the black man is being kicked out of the bar for disorderly conduct but he erroneously concludes it is for reasons of racial discrimination.

Yup. Maybe you should think about that reeeeeeal slooooooow liiiiike.

BTW - how is the water? Getting a lot of "swimming" in?

Pretty much every time you post, LEB.

People don't insult Crimpie because they like and respect her. It has nothing at all to do with her politics or gender. For one thing she doesn't behave like a tele-evangelist or 7th day Adventist. She doesn't try to force feed us untruths like you do. Nor does she desire to ram it up our poop shoots like Skippypoo wants to do. Unlike most of US she is a class act.
She is the antithesis of you.

And Lois if you can't handle vulgarities you should realize you picked the wrong group of people to be a groopie for. Climbers are rude, crude, obnoxious and barely house trained.

Once again a thread has been shanghied by the Loising point. How pathetic you are to twist so many threads to be about you. I can only think your husband must be the king of blue balls.

Say howdy to HowierdDean and aa-lex. At least you wont have to pay long distance charges.

Perfect! You cant even recognize your part in it nor when and where the diversion takes place.


I can't hold one-sided conversations.
You do all the time...



FOX NEWS LIES!
FOX NEWS IS A PROPAGANDA MACHINE FOR THE PROJECT FOR A NEW AMERICAN CENTURY.
FOX NEWS IA A PARIAH!
HITLER WOULD HAVE BEEN A FOX NEWS FAN.
FOX NEWS WOULD HAVE FUNDED AND PROPAGANDIZED FOR HITLER.

A picture is worth a 1000 and all that...here's a perfect encapsulation:

While the wingnuts bluster and fume, thinking people just laugh at the clownshow.

Once again, HDDJ, you divert attention away from the OP's topic and onto "Lois."
