wmw999 2,452 #26 October 26, 2010 You're absolutely right -- Kennedy's are absolutely great. You post content as a rule as well (although you were wrong about Obama cutting NASA's budget ). And I'm sure there are others as well they just haven't posted in the last day or two, and I'm a blonde Wendy P. There is nothing more dangerous than breaking a basic safety rule and getting away with it. It removes fear of the consequences and builds false confidence.

skyrider 0 #28 October 26, 2010 QuoteQuoterhaig, davinci, lawrocket, gawain (who hasn't been here recently unfortunately) all probably qualify as conservative. kennedy's posts are usually good to go.

champu 1 #31 October 26, 2010 Quotegenerally libs are more emotional , and cons more intellect driven. Quotelibs are often exceedingly condescending... Well, on the bright side you've downgraded from "generally" to "often" in your blanket statements. Telling people they're being emotional in a discussion, however, could be construed as condescending which makes this pair of statements kinda funny.

wmw999 2,452 #35 October 26, 2010 Whether or not posters are incoherent (you have to read some of the drunk posts in Bonfire before announcing there's no such thing ), there are times when it's really hard to tell what a poster means with what he or she writes. Sometimes by going back through the thread you can figure it out, but if I can't figure it out reasonably quickly I'll give up. I do this for fun, there's no need to go post necromancing to figure out wtf someone was saying if there's no content or new idea there. And it's usually easy to see if there's a new idea. Less than one full line is often a good indicator that there isn't a whole lot of actual content. Wendy P. There is nothing more dangerous than breaking a basic safety rule and getting away with it.

lawrocket 3 #40 October 26, 2010 Quoterhaig, davinci, lawrocket, gawain (who hasn't been here recently unfortunately) all probably qualify as conservative. I am finding myself to become increasingly embittered by labeling. Sure, I do it myself, so it makes me a bit hypocritical. But identifying as conservative is something I don't do. I think that the particular identifications can come from what people perceive to be their biggest issue. For example, if one views anticollectivism to be the most impotant attribute of a conservative then I'd be conservative. On the other hand if one views personal freedoms, the 4th Amendment, equal protection, etc., as the most important qualifier then I'd be a liberal because I oppose discrimination against gays, by race, and believe that the 4th Amendment means what it says. Labels of "conservative" or "liberal" are usually meant to classify someone and never look at details. My wife is hotter than your wife. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wendy P. Pull up any of Amazon's posts . . . Aww poor wittle Turtle.... Hmm I wonder if I should get a logon over at nedtheneedledick.com to watch the right wing cirlejerks there too Mostly lib's and halfwits have taken over "speak your mind" forum , you'd be right at home! Its never fun to deal with guys like so many here who NEVER bring even that to a battle of wits. I miss the old days with Vinny the Anvil who brought a brain and not the head full of mush that so many self identified "conservatives" bring daily with incessant posts about what boogiemen are hiding under the bed.
