I didn't hear a lot of outrage from the right when the death sentences were reversed on 13 innocent people in Illinois, mostly due to prosecutorial misconduct. Had the right had its way, they would have been executed long before. Of course, they were black or hispanic. And how about this guy? Not much outrage about his wrongful imprisonment for decades. But then, he's black too. Oh look... it's a Red Herring.

You mean like naming a thread "Pelosi - I want my jet!"? Well, that was an outright falsehood, not an exaggeration. It seems that the people who don't get the joke, find it the least funny. Bummer for them, eh? On several levels. Then there are those who tell "outright falsehoods" a.k.a. LIES,... and they're completely serious. Then there are those tossing pebbles from glass houses who think the world can't see in.

No Touching in School - Even hand shakes, high-fives or hugs

True. -
Last week you said they denied it. So poo-poo means the same as deny?
-
There's a lot of pompous self-righteousness on this thread. Most of it seems to be supported by piles of shit. Thanks for the laughs. And Billvon, if you're going to go with the implied personal attack method, do you think it's okay to give out warnings when you infer others are doing the same?

Amazing to hear the masses saying that they would leave the US
NCclimber replied to RkyMtnHigh's topic in Speakers Corner
So, with Bush's two term presidency 80% over your friends leave the country... one can only wonder how much Bush getting elected weighed on their decision making process. -
Anyone else view Bush Sr. in the same light? Probably a lot of people since he used to head the CIA. how circular.
-
Kelp, I agree that we have some problems/burdens that have been worsened by Bush's policies, but when I see "I blame all the people who voted for Bush in the last two elections for our more recent... economic... problems" I just gotta call bullshit. Longstanding problems that have been worsened? Yes Blame it all on Bush? Bullshit
-
In other words, he did nothing to fuck up the economy. That's a positive in my book.
-
So... what was it Clinton did to fuck up the economy? Could you answer that without all the other commentary?
-
Clinton fucked up the economy? That whole reducing the deficit while the stock market and job markets soar doesn't really count as a fuckup in my book. Tell me what you mean.
-
How have the Bush deficits negatively impacted the economy? Yes, I know the debt has increased. How have the increases negatively impacted the economy?
-
Millions? How many millions? And when was that time? Or is this just another exagerated, well outside the bell curve comparison? Please enlighten me. I just want to learn. Maybe it was exaggeration for rhetorical purposes. Happens a lot, I'm surprised you haven't noticed. You mean like naming a thread "Pelosi - I want my jet!"?

IMO, the problem in running for President has two interlinked factors. First, we're a voyeristic nation, in which the masses thrive on learning about other people's dirty laundry,... especially if it belongs to someone noteworthy. Secondly, the game of politics has become particularly nasty, effectively compelling many ambitious politicians to cater to my first point. Therefore, national candidates need a particularly thick skin and a willingness to expose their families also to abuse, if they want to play for the top spot. Oh yeah - there's that whole nasty business of funding your campaign, too.

If I relied heavily on dishonest labels and bullshit claims would that make me more worldly?
-
What economic problems? Which of them are the fault of the current administration? Massive overspending. While it has been an on-again off-again problem for quite some time, responsibility for the current deficit rests on the shoulders of GWB and the people who elected him. Blues, Dave How has that impacted the economy?
-
What economic problems? Unemployment is 4.5%, inflation for the last 6 years has been near 2% per year, the stock market is going gangbusters. Of any economic problems you see, which of them are the fault of the current administration?
-
No I am not, and it is bizarre how you could interpret what I said as that for one and secondly how such a narrow mined interpretation could stem such a deviation from the subject. To see where this thread went off topic, check out the first reply. And your subsequent, "they invaded Iraq for the same reasons" was a real laugher. Anyone else view Bush Sr. in the same light? What system are you talking about?
-
It's not like anyone would intentionally vote one way just to stir the pot.

Once again proving the inadequacy of the metric system!
NCclimber replied to quade's topic in Speakers Corner
Clearly, the metric system is a communist ploy to undermine the United States and the American way of life! Anyone who can't see this needs to open their eyes and recognize the multitude of ways in which the metric interlopers have harmed our once great country! -
Well, maybe not everybody but some people could possibly benefit. http://www.snopes.com/photos/automobiles/lumber.asp Can you bend over backwards and touch your head to the ground?

How comforting that the BBC is keeping tabs on local ordinances in a town of 2000 people. LOL
-
It does provide a nice counter-balance to some of the more extreme left winger posts.

He invaded Iraq for the same greedy reason that his son did. He and his idiot son have systematically made this planet a much less enjoyable/safe place to be. Wow. It's hard to argue with such insight. Are you saying the US deserves pain and suffering?
