    Don't you regularly criticize other posters for making up their own definitions? Get real. Nothing about them is fascist. Not even close. Using that word makes you look silly. - Dan G

    You mean the real record, or the fantasy one? - Dan G

    Does this include ad revenue from the magazine? - Dan G

    They're not fascists. Your insistence on saying that implies you don't know what fascism is. They are homophobes and misguided Conservatives. They are not fascists. This whole thing is a large cup of who-the-fuck-cares. - Dan G

    And therein lies the point. The government isn't telling people how to live their most personal lives. It is telling them how they have to live that small part of their lives that interfaces with the public sphere, and only if they want to run a public business. Frankly, if they want to start a Members Only Cake Lovers Club, then they can exclude gays, blacks, women, or whatever. But they can't do that with a business that is open to the public. If it is open to the public, it has to be open to the whole public. It's really less of an intrusion on rights that it is being made out to be. - Dan G

    So you condemn Kerry's speech as full of blatant lies and hypocrisy, but you're okay with Putin's blatant lies and hypocrisy? Having legitimate interests in Ukraine doesn't excuse an armed invasion (unless you believe Putin that no Russian troops are on the ground, just local defense forces that happen to look exactly like Russian troops without their insignia on). I'm not sure what Western media coverage you're been watching, but what I've seen on Al Jazeera America and NPR has been pretty balanced. - Dan G

    "Liberal" does not mean, "things I don't like." - Dan G

    I understand what you're saying from a theoretical viewpoint, but in practical terms it sounds like you would support de facto segregation, if not de jure. At some point, even if it is not a government mandate, the economic pressure to discriminate can be more powerful that the pressure not to. In other words, if you're the only lunch counter in town willing to serve blacks, you're probably going to lose all your white business. - Dan G

    Do you think Putin's press conference statements were true? - Dan G

    Well, she's probably just worried about what all the hair gel will do to her scissors. - Dan G

    Hmm, so there is no difference between Muslims and Republicans in Arizona, they're both ignorant and backwards. Refreshing to hear that from you. - Dan G

    I think you might need a primer on how government works if you think congresspeople "run" anything in their home districts. - Dan G

    No one is saying that. That's what they are saying. For the poor it is harder. - Dan G

    What makes you think that's not exactly what is going on right now? - Dan G

    Why would Obama seek to reduce our world effectiveness? What's his motivation? - Dan G

    I didn't realize it was a contest. You must be proud your friends in the CAR are trying to even the score. - Dan G

    Since when did, "they did it first," become a proper moral compass? And did the Muslims really start it? How far back do you want to go? My point is that, regardless of what Rick wants us to believe, Muslims are not the only ones capable of horrible crimes against humanity. - Dan G

    When were you going to start a thread on this atrocity regarding Muslims? http://www.bbc.com/news/world-africa-26150668 - Dan G

    I think an old character named Pogo would know the answer to that. - Dan G

    Please regale us with a tale of when you did this! I'd love to hear one. - Dan G

    Are you trying to tell me my "Redskins Fans Only" parking sign is unenforceable? - Dan G

    Different agencies have different criteria. I've met people with 100% VA disability ratings that have no outward physical signs of being anything other than able-bodied. Whether or not your Dad was "the first" has nothing to do with his accomplishments. - Dan G

    lawrocket's statement was: Which implies that ice floats in water because water at 4C is denser than at other temperatures. That's wrong. Ice floats in water because ice at any temperature is less dense than water at any temperature. And yes, I mean ice in its naturally occurring form, not an exotic alotope that doesn't exist on Earth except in a lab. Why are we even discussing this? - Dan G

    That would be a great quote if it had anything to do with how the scientific community thinks. In other words, stop beating your strawman, he's looking a little ragged. - Dan G
