You've taken yourself out of the fight using the lame excuse that no one meets your "standards", then spend your time those of us who continue to fight.
I'll join you on this, Luis.
Paine trashes everybody who supports Bush, but he never supports anybody. Just rants and raves and posts his pissant, meaningless replies, while hiding behind the "Constitution."
Now, watch him have this post pulled.
There are no emotions here tommy, I am simply unmasking you for what you are, a sideliner, a backseat driver, a man who, lacking anyone to elevate and support, instead takes the cheap and easy way out, and spends his time putting everyone down.
A very emotional little rant luis.. Droll humor..
You've taken yourself out of the fight using the lame excuse that no one meets your "standards", then spend your time those of us who continue to fight.
Simply untrue luis. Post proof I've taken myself "out of the fight using the lame excuse" that no one meets my "standards". You can't, and you know it.. It's just more of your emotional BS..
You are in your house, posting blather on an internet forum tommy, quit agrandizing yourself.
How laughable luis.. You too are in your house, posting blather on an internet forum, agrandizing yourself by boasting of your precinct work.. Big deal.
When are you going to start doing this? You lost the tax evasion argument the other night, big time.
Dey were ev'rywhere! Those voices!
Calling me from the White House!
Oh, all right, from a bush, a bush at the edge of the lawn,
yes, that's it!
Bush told me to say it was Iraq!
Everyone?
Yeah, all the nutburger-tax-evasion-Irwin-Schiff-idjits may have laughed. Your guy is going to prison.
The knowledgeable (Hon, ancient-geezer, me) didn't have to say anything as you guys did a monkey-dance. Over a complete loser.
They do. Simkanin did. He got fully-informed jury.
You clowns objected. We laughed at ~your~ craziness.
We pointed out, calmly, that you tax nutcases are not going to put the law on trial. The judge didn't allow it, and he doesn't have to allow it. An appeals court will agree with him on that.
You laughed, but you were wrong, and you're still wrong.
Actually, the facts are on trial, the law is not. You are free to jury nullify, but no judge is going to allow an open discussion about the constitutionality of the law.
I know you don't like that, but it doesn't matter what you don't like.
No judge has the constitutional power to stop a defense opening/closing statement, or expert testimony about the constitutionality of the law as it applies to the case at hand. -- That is the issue.
It's not an issue. Judges stop the showboating all the time over settled law. Appeals courts agree with them, and the USSC agree with the Appeals Courts.
So, it's not an issue, paine, no matter how much you stamp your feet and say it is.
Worse, you hide behind the pretense of ideological purity, then use it to excuse off your complete lack of a will to participate in our system of government.
Hype.. Anyone can read my first post to you and see the BS you're slinging.. Get a life luis.
Claiming that you're in the arena because you post on an internet forum, is like claiming that you are competing for the Fields Medal because you rented "Good Will Hunting" from Blockbuster. The arena is out here tommy, where the real people tackle the real issues. Not in fron of your monitor.
Whatever
I don't hide behind the Constitution.
Worse, you hide behind the pretense of ideological purity, then use it to excuse off your complete lack of a will to participate in our system of government.
More hype. None of my posts 'hide or excuse' anything. You're going wacko..
Big deal? I am participating in the system, as the system was designed to be run by citizens. I am actively campaigning for my candidate of choice, and that means activism. Tell me tommy boy, what have YOU done to defend and honor the Constitution? Other than engage in useless arguments over minutiae on some electronic bulletin board?
YOU are posting the "minutiae" luis.. It's amusing to see you go berserk at being criticized..
You need rest.
