    I served during the invasion! Does this mean I have the standing to say anything?

    (and BTW, I hate war. So does McCain. War sucks. Sometimes it is necessary, but it still sucks.)
    Yeah, but you also have the standing to say stuff because you don't start by telling people things like they "suck terrorist " because you disagree with their politics.

    All you righties should disassociate yourselves from that ignognokt . Despite his right wing politics, which may or may not appeal to you, he's the biggest piece of on ST.

    "Does this mean I have the standing to say anything"

    no. Everybody has the right to say anything.

    "War sucks. Sometimes it is necessary"

    Iraq wasn't necessary, wasn't even a threat.

    Old Sick Senile 95% McFlopPanderKeating still thinks the Iraq war was necessary, and has added his own "100 years" extension, and that is sufficient to kill his chances for the WH.

    Me telling you suck doesn't say wether i like war or not.

    It's just an expression to pist you off. It's the same thing you do except now it's being served to you and you don't like it.

    Don't get mad at me because you feel inadequate to put forth a real idea or input.

    At least there is more attention paid to Obama than there is McCain. Of course we all know what has been going on the past 7 years.

    Dude why are you even talking with him? He's got a running record as a moron and everyone here knows it. He's on his second screen name because they made his last account post in all pink since he's such a re but we all know his and treat him appropriately. Just ignore him and while he may not go away its the best way to handle piles of like him.

    Hmmm, see now I sometimes enjoy Gtown's input when its toned down.

    Hes the right-wing, uber-vulgar boutons equivalent. He "wins" his arguments before he even hits "Submit Reply".

    These are your debating skills...?

    You over-generalize, make assumptions, and create straw men to try to prove your point. I guess these can be seen as skills, but I don't know that they can be "merited" as debating skills.
    I did say most Democrats. On average I would venture to say that Republicans are more informed than Democrats.

    That's good Peabody, i'd knew you'd be unbiased and only crack on Cajunspur for having lofty debating skills when your idealogical equal makes primate like one word responses.
    My reasoning -

    1. I enjoy Manny's posts.
    2. I enjoy DR's posts.
    3. In this thread, Cajun has acted like an arrogant prick to both.

    As an aside, I wondered what the happened to you. I didn't realize you were posting under another name.

    Wow Manny, if Ballsmoker wants to talk let him. Don't let your s get out your motherly instinct and jump at every chance to defend Ballichugger.

    If ballichugger wants to call every Republican inbred and hayseed, he has every right to. He's gonna get for it, but that's the way it goes.

    I only post under this nick because i can start threads. The other i can't start threads with or edit.

    Being Pink on the internets is nothing to be ashamed of, i'm not here to kiss ass swing my s, and act like a self righteous prick like you.

    Manny deserves the treatment.

    You wouldn't be up in arms about it if the roles were reversed so get off your high horse, you're just being partisan.

    Not a matter of being on a high horse. As I said, I enjoy Manny and DR's posts. I know Manny's political leanings, but DR is not a partisan from what I can tell. On some issues, I agree with DR and on others I don't, but I always enjoy his posts.

    Also, I am biased and partisan. So what? This is a political forum. Everyone in here is biased and almost all are partisan.

    You're right, i am too. But why should cajunspur take your post seriously or anybody when they know had Manny done it to republicans, you'd stay quiet.

    Like when did you become the sage of thread ethics?

    I'm now laughing at you. At first I was pissed at how big of dumbass you are, but now that I know you're just a board wide joke, I'm laughing. Along with everyone else apparently. See, it was great to find out you're a formerly pinked poster that everyone hates and knows is a dumbass. Great. Stay out of my way from now on, you pathetic ing clown.

    Ballijuana sent me this love letter through PM.

    He's totally gay for me.

    He needs counseling.

    "Sage of Thread Ethics" Nice. I've never claimed that, but I'll take it.

    As far as my political leanings, I think they are quite evident. You know that as well as anyone, as we've disagreed frequently in the past.

    Moreover, how can you call me out for attacking posters with different ideologies? You and I both know that if cajunspur was liberal, you would have already made some crack about him having "man chowder on his molars" (to borrow a quote of your's from the past).

    but i wouldn't be calling for one to adhere to forum ettiquette. This is a fun forum. Not everyone's reply will be taken seriously.

    You libs seriously don't think Ign-ignoramus is one of the crudest, funniest posters here? He's top 10, easily. I'd love to work on his, um, methodology a bit (to help him become a smarter conservative), but I love his posts generally.

    And what's this to do with the Golden Child anyway?

    Obama gets the highest marks for upholding our Cons utional "Right to keep, and bear arms";



    Obama: ‘If They Bring a Knife to the Fight, We Bring a Gun’
    .
    Mobster wisdom tells us never to bring a knife to a gun fight. But what does political wisdom say about bringing a gun to a knife fight?

    Wayne, Pa., Saturday, June 14. (AP)
    That’s exactly what Barack Obama said he would do to counter Republican attacks “If they bring a knife to the fight, we bring a gun,” Obama said at a Philadelphia fundraiser Friday night. “Because from what I understand folks in Philly like a good brawl. I’ve seen Eagles fans.”

    The comment drew some laughs and applause. But it also struck a chord with his Republican rival. John McCain’s campaign immediately accused the Democratic candidate of playing the politics of fear. They also mentioned that Obama said he would use a gun that would be illegal under Obama’s plans to cut down on illegal firearms.

    “Barack Obama’s call for ‘new politics’ is officially over. In just 24 hours, Barack Obama attacked one of America’s pioneering women CEOs, rejected a series of joint bipartisan town halls, and said that if there’s a political knife fight, he’d bring a gun,” McCain campaign spokesman Tucker Bounds said in a statement.

    As much as you would like to think I am a "democratic", youre new, so I'll allow your assumptions to be overlooked.

    You just quoted someone that said "you over-generalize, make assumptions, [sic]" and respond to this with...

    On average I would venture to say that Republicans are more informed than Democrats.
    Seriously? So you dont deny that your opinions are based on assumptions and generalizations?

    Chump made this point right after your post, but I dont think you got it. So I figured I'd spell it out for you. Consider it "nickel advice".

    IMO, there are a few different categories of people here in the political forum.

    1) those who approach things with an open mind, but are still very much grounded in their views
    2) those who are convinced of their righteousness and dont make it past a few lines of a post before dissecting their target point for point.
    3) trolls

    So far, youre leaning toward 2 with a distinct possiblity of being 3. I'd like to think that you arent. The political forum needs another political hack like it needs another topic on "Muhammad Hussein Obama".

    Its been done. Try to be original or at least entertaining. Have an opinion, stay with it, but realize there are other people in the world who will never have the same worldview you do. The best you can do is state your opinion (making it clear that is an opinion) and back it up with some known facts.

    Making sweeping generalizations will only garner favor and agreement from those who have been proven to be nothing more than regurgitating FoxNews/MSNBC hacks with little in the way of objectivity and honesty, but long on rhetoric and propoganda.

    If you choose to be classified as such, by all means, continue. But youll just be identified and lotted together with those on "the other side" you seem to detest so much. Being a right-wing hack is no different than being a left-wing hack....youre still a hack.

    Very interesting choice of words from Mr Obama. Right or wrong, a seasoned politician (McCain) doesnt make that mistake.

    Obviously, he is using the analogy in a metaphysical sense, but providing ammunition for the opposition is as rookie as it gets (see, I can make analogies too!).

    He cleans that up or he gets cleaned up in November. The power of suggestion can be a wonderful tool in the political arena when wielded by those with savvy. So far, he isnt very savvy and his opposition just might be.

    Its things like this (not exactly this, but something orders of magnitude more important, lest we forget what he was referencing with the analogy) that can ruin him. Imagine if such a remark was made in reference to Iraq? Immigration/Amnesty? Education?

    A poorly worded soliloquy can be (not always) the difference between a favorable perception or a negative perception.

    Our war of words shall continue hand in hand with our inaction.
