Me go kill wild boar for dinner. Back when moon come up.
Absolutely! This thread proves it beyond doubt. They've gotten a little more publicity, but they're every bit as looney.
While I didn't read through the entire link (I can only stomach so much of that), the one train of thought that I saw linked throughout is that they consider the MSM right of center and they're the left of center. That smacks of a highly narrow focus on reality, if focus is relevant here. Unbelievable!
I've seen my share of one-issue and my-way-or-the-highway people on FR. But those are the members, not the moderators/admin. I've only seen one case of temporary termination in my short time here. I never saw the post so I can't judge, but from what I know of the person it was a mistake in judgment on the part of the moderator.
If FR wasn't open to different viewpoints I wouldn't waste my time here. I'm not interested in having my opinion reverbed back to me, thank you. I want ideas, not kudos, and I want stimulation, not provocation.
I may not agree with you on everything (the gay agenda because of my religious beliefs) however you have the right and obligation to follow your beliefs as you find them and I'll fight to the death for that privilege for you.
Lovely. I think it's hilarious how these socialists rage against the injustices of capitalism, and how it hurts "the little guy"--meaning, one can only presume, "the Democrat voter"--and yet here this guy is a penny stock whore who took countless little investors to the cleaners.
I would agree in an open debate. However KO and DU are far from open forums. That's what makes the post I responded to so laughably ridiculous. Neither forum is anywhere close to tolerant of opposing views. Just to read their 'in-your-face' pomposity is proof of that. No, that poster is delusional, but may I say that's because he's never subjected to anything but acceptance and support.
I certainly will! Look for mine -- it will be an Alaska Airlines plane! ;)
If you have time and no one minds, I have what I consider to be an interesting story along those lines I can post up. Or I can post it on the UT.
I flat-out called him a Bush-bot for his support of Bush in the light of thr Bush Amnesty and am still alive (but I don't think I will drink that brand of scotch before posting again ;) ).
Jim is VERY broadminded and we appreciate it.
Absolutely! My belief is that it is an abomination of God's gift to us (this World he's given us to keep and protect). However, we're all God's children and should the homosexual seek forgiveness and try to live his/her life as a good Christian then how can I stand in their way? Those that choose their own path will answer for that when the time comes.
My wife and I left the church we belonged to over this issue and now belong to a more traditional church. But, that was because we saw the church we were in deviating from God's word as given in the Bible. Not because of our intolerance. Others may not see it that way, but that's their problem.
"Rove Begins Blog Takeover"
The KOmmies have become too influential. Rove realizes that he must do something to discredit them so he instructs PJ-Comix of DUmmie FUnnies to bring them down with a "copy and paste" attack. Our republican leadership realizes today that the internet is not just going to be another passing fad. The time has come to make the internet our own. Reportedly, Rove has also begun taking steps to install broadband internet access in the Whitehouse. We will someday look back on today as the day when everything finally changed.
I think most of us realize that KO and DU are not worthwhile reading -- but if the mainstream media writers think they are, I can see where they get all their material from.
OK, so has anyone joined Kos? I see no forums like DU, but an article and a couple of hundred comments. Is that it?
Is that all there is? Start a blog, write an Opinion peice, and hope your article goes to the front page?
This sounds way too easy.
OK, the DUmmies are more amusing but hey, I understand PJ, these Kommies are kewl. But, I do think I'll have to do a cross stitch of
"perception eventually becomes the collective reality"
Ladyinred says, "...I hope they [the Kommies] are worried big time, too!"
KosKommie says: "So how do we stop him [Rove]? If he wants to silence us, how do we stop him?"
Oh, dear goddess, oh, higher power, oh, great pumpkin, save us! We're all gonna be silenced! Oh, the humanity!
The fault, dear Kommies, is not in the Rovian star, but in yourselves that you are philosophically barren, culturally depraved, and that you are moral imbeciles. (Brush up on your Shakespeare.)
Far from wanting these screaming fanatics silenced, we want their squalid view of America and their fellow Americans given the widest audience possible, and L'il Beaver is spreading the word.
All hail the mighty Rove, source of all Lefty nightmares!
All hail L'il Beaver, source of endless Conservative mirth!
The irony is that Rove recognizes how the base expresses itself on sites like Powerline, Captain's Quarters, etc. He wants to strengthen that line of communication. The DUmmies are just jealous, because no one inside the Beltway takes them seriously [pretty sad when even kooks like Pelosi think you're a loon.
You sound alot like me. I also am a recent convert to the idea that Global Warming is occuring, and we should probably start doing something about it (in a Conservative way). I have not been banished here. I am a believer in Evolution, and although that is a very heated subject here, no one gets banned unless they are a total A-hole about it. There are anti-Iraq war freepers, "pro-choice", anti-free market freepers, heck, we are a diverse group really..
At the time, people were confused that the movie wasn't violent. Also, the weight that DeNiro gained for RAGING BULL was a big distraction for years as DeNiro slowly slimmed back down. People would go to see one of his new movies thinking, I hope he's back to normal. It was a little freakish.
