Would You Vote For William Ayers For President?
Thanatos340 replied to piper17's topic in Speakers Corner
Oh, I believe in personal responsibility. I did indeed write that in response to the person that brought up McCain. You can try to twist that all day long if you like. It will not make anything I wrote any less true nor will it make your implication that Iwas the one that brought McCain into this discussion any more true. Care to actually discuss the topic at hand here? Obama`s relationship with Ayers is where we started. Is this true? Does it matter if it is? It does to me. Ayers is a Terrorist and a self proclaimed Communist. I generally oppose both those concepts. Starting out your political career from his living room was a pretty bad idea in my opinion. Obama`s ties to Ayers are deeper than his campaign wants to admit. True or False? We can also discuss the other topics brought up in the course of the original discussion (again by someone else) such as Obamas 20 Year relationship with Rev. Wright. I would also be happy to talk about McCains screw up with Keating. McCain blew it on that one. He readily admits it. Nothing being hidden there. Take your pick.. But if you want to play the attack the opponent and/or the poster as your response, I don’t really see the point of playing along. -

Ummm.. When YOU said: ^(Hey Bill.. Hint.. Look here for the answer to my last question to you)^ I assumed you meant Rev. Wright as calling Ayers a Black Ideologue would be somewhat of a stretch. Please note I Identified all 3 questionable relationships (And I agree that ALL 3 (McCain/Keating, Obama/Wright and Obama/Ayers) are questionable) and kept them separate after addressing you KKK comment. -

Again with the redirect. The standard answer when "Your" candidate is questioned... Attack the other candidate. (Both sides here are equally guilty on that and that is pretty sad) And to answer your question.. My mind is not yet made on who to vote for so it would be impossible to change who "I support" as I cannot with conviction truly support any of the candidates that are running. Currently it is looking like a lesser or the evils type choice for me unfortunately. -

If McCain had gone to KKK meetings for 20 years (or even a single meeting), It would be safe to say that ANY rational person would have a problem with that. If MCain had been introduced to the local political elite in David Dukes Living room, You can bet that Rational people would have an Issue with that. I know I would. When one of those people were your chosen Spiritual advisor for 20 years, The person you called on to Baptize your children, the person you to Listened to every Sunday for 20 years.. The relationship isnt so Fuzzy. When someone like Bill Ayers hosts your introduction to the local political elite in his home, You would think that maybe, just maybe.. They share many of the same beliefs. McCain/Keeting = Poor Decision in which McCain attended two meetings over a brief period of time. McCain acknowledges this as the biggest mistake of his life, learns from it and moves on. Obama/Rev Wright = 20 Years as Obama’s Pastor. Nothing fuzzy about that one. Obama/Ayers = 1995 Ayers hosts a Meeting where Obama is introduced to the local Political elite at his home. See the David Duke analogy for my thoughts on that one. -

1) Palin isnt running for president. McCain is. 2) 20 years as a member of a congregation is quite a bit different than attending a couple of services. Obama - 20 years of membership with Rev. Wrights Church. 20 years of Sermons. 20 years of Spiritual guidance from Rev Wright. Obama Chose Rev Wright to conduct his wedding, Obama Choose Rev. Wright to Baptize his children. You honestly think he doesn’t share the same views on most things? 3) Are you saying that this isn’t true.. "In 1995, State Senator Alice Palmer introduced her chosen successor, Barack Obama, to a few of the district’s influential liberals at the home of two well known figures on the local left: William Ayers and Bernardine Dohrn."? If I am mistaken on this I would like to corrected. -

Had you attended weekly Lectures by those Nobel prize winners (Like Obama did with Rev. Wright) for 20 years, I would think you might have learned from them. Had you choosen to attend those lectures above all others, I would think that you must believe what the lecturer is saying more often than not. Had the Billionaires help launch your career and have done so from their own living room, I would suspect that they share similar philosophies to yours. kellend: Your reasoning is blinded by hatred for the opposition. -
What Can We Do About Skyride II
Thanatos340 replied to slotperfect's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
The Smart thing to do that would give the greatest chance of winning their legal battles would be to actually run an Honest Business. Something that they simply have not done in the past. It is pretty pathetic that so many people think Fraud and deception are acceptable business practices. Glad to hear that Skydive Dallas has finally decided drop their association Skyride. Between the Injunction in Georgia, the on going Lawsuit in AZ and the New Law in Tennessee... Hopefully Skyride will someday get what they deserve. -
Happy Birthday Girl!! Hope you get all the spankings you deserve!

Thanatos340 replied to upndownshop's topic in The Bonfire
Dont You even mention Electricity to me. Hey.. Atleast I got really good at putting up and taking down the Pop-up over the 4 days I spent looking for power. even with the great Power quest of Skyfest 2008, I truly hope Skyfest returns to Chester. Great DZ for Skyfest I thought. (And J, Where ever Skyfest happens to end up.. Who has dibs on one power outlet before ANYONE else this year??) -
McCain builds winning coalition for bailout vote!
Thanatos340 replied to billvon's topic in Speakers Corner
A couple?? Try almost ALL. Besides.. Why should this "My Favorite Flavor of Liar, Crook, Scumbag is Waaaaay better they your Flavor of Liar, Crook, Scumbag" thread be any different than the other 5,000 threads with the exact same theme?? And Logic?? In a political debate?? In this forum? Are you sure you didn’t hit your head too doing your fire walk?? -
Squeak.. Do us all a favor.. Take your Right Hand and shove it as far up your ass as you can and see if you cant grab a hold of whatever is up there that makes you such an antagonistic person and remove it. It would really make this forum a much more pleasant place to visit if you are successful.

Bring it on Sweet Cheeks.

That goes both ways.

Nope.. Just some are honest. Just because someone doesn’t tell you what you want to and/or expect to hear doesn’t mean they are being mean.. Sometime they are the ones that actually being the nicest. (And yes, There are a couple that do just get thier kicks out of trying to belittle and berate others but they are by far the minority on here.) That and Abuse is Love.. And I love my friends every chase I get.

What Can We Do About Skyride II
Thanatos340 replied to slotperfect's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
That was a great read. If anyone becomes aware of Skyride violating that order, Please contact the Georgia Office of Consumer Affairs. I have been in contact with a couple people there and they seem to be very dedicated people looking out for the consumer’s best interest. I have a couple of Names, Email addresses and Phone numbers for some people at the OCA that are very familiar with this case. When the USPA settled with Cary Q/ASC/Skyride, They all decided to come over to our DZ to Celebrate/Rub it in our faces.. I think maybe this weekend I will wonder over to ASC and take them a few Jello-Shots, See if they want to toast a decision from an actual Judge. (Naaaa… I like the high road too much. The view and the company is so much better here) -
A wise co-worked once told me something that I think makes a lot of sence when dealing with any employer.. "Come Payday, We are even." What that boils down to is that for both the Employee and the Employer.. Neither should have any expectation other than getting paid for the work that has already been done at the agreed upon rate. There is no "Job for Life" anymore. You should never expect anything beyond your next paycheck from your employer and they should not expect more from you than the work you were hired to do. "Come Payday, We are Even". Trust me, If they could find someone to do your job more efficiently or less expensive than you, They would. You should have no quams about taking a different job that better suits your goals. If you want to give them a chance to match whatever new offer you find, that is fine but don’t ever sell yourself short or limit yourself with some form of misguided loyalty.

You left your Rig (Unpacked even) in a Common area?? That sounds pretty rude to me. Put you stuff away or dont get upset when someone moves it because it is in thier way. Rigs are not all that fragile but they should not be left out in areas where others are around (Especially if they are unpacked). That is just asking for trouble. Someone could trip over a line, Drop and/or spill something on the fabric, All kinds of potential problems. Put your shit away and you have nothing to worry about.

Nothing wrong with occasionally reminding the Wife that you are still a marketable commodity. Now tell your wife to fix you a sammich and bring you a beer and you may even let her tag along.

It brought a tear to my eye. Such a lovely and heart felt rendition of a true classic.

As any that know me can attest.. I am always pure, innocent and very well behaved. But for some reason Mondays seem to be a little more difficult after Turtle and I have been hanging out.

What is really funny is that I asked how much a First date/ Night out typically costs and even stipulated that I knew it doesn’t have to cost anything and generally creative dates are better anyway... Yet look at how many people took it otherwise. A Girl gets asked out for a dinner date, She should at least expect a sit down restaurant or a creative substitute. Anything less shows a lack of respect in my opinion.
