Bob,
You deserved a response to your question posed to the new guest. It was a simple question, a fair and direct question. He ignored you.

But, I had the gumption to point out that a drunk guest had wandered into the house party. The guest was loud, rude, and was puking on some of the other guests. That didn’t yet rate an insult.

The loud guest - who was setting everyone straight - was just beginning - but just was not getting enough attention.

Sooooo, the loud guest, who was puking on folks and just acting a bit rude when no one knew who this guest was...thought to himself...I know how to get more attention...so he saw a quote from Box in this thread...

Now, we all appreciate Box’s comic genius and when I saw that new guest was pulling down his zipper...and then exposing his ass...I fucked up and pointed out that there was a loud, rude, new guest puking in here and pulling down his zipper and showing his ass. And, he was doing it to someone who we all respect and enjoy. The underhanded mockery directed to Box just got under my skin. I know, I know, I should have just shut up.

But, new guy wasn’t done...he knew all members here think alike and that all well behaved guests who were polite were just unintelligent suck ups.

My appreciating Box’s comic genius was purely based on being a stupid suck up. He “knew” this and he “knew” that all QPs would never respect anyone who was not a QP - EVAH. He knew this how? He spoke for everyone how?

He insulted more than me Bob.

Modest demand side fiscal policies? Fuck that. Keynes was a fucking communist.

Dissolve the fucking legislature. Send all Democrats to Siberia. Amend the Constitution to start a Trump dynasty. It’s clear we are all tired of elections anyway, when they don’t go our way we all bleat on like mindless moronic sheep to the tune of spurious election fraud accusations. Might as well do away with them permanently.

I find it incredible that a group of people who devoted their lives to the liberation of enslaved peoples have given themselves over so willingly to a mendacious, mindless cult of personality. You’re all being lied to and you eat it so willingly.

Have fun.
Hmm?

Oh, we know we’re being lied to. Just whom is doing the lying is in question.

The fact that you believe your opinion over many here does not make you correct. I would think an open minded teacher (cough cough) would be able to objectively look at all the facts from both sides and determine that neither are not wrong, at the moment.

You sir have invalidated your own opinion by bring in emotion to substitute for fact, something we conservatives make many claims about liberals all the time about. How quickly you went from “fact” to “logical fallacies” to your own emotionally driven ad hominem attacks.

Keep them coming because you won’t get a second chance.

Chief, we’re gonna need a bigger boat....

I know Tonyz has been here longer and had more to add but damn, not one response for me.

Respectfully,

Bob
Your opinions may or may not be the same and or different from mine but it doesn't matter...

I'm just going to assume that I am remarkably wiser and more enlightened than you - I am also going to use my superior wit and intelligence to explain why you are so ignorant - why you should realize and accept that YOUR political representatives are lying to you while MY political representatives are pure of mind and heart and seek only to make the world a better place by being the very embodiment of the culmination of the ultimate form of imagined government.

You are a sheep.
You do not matter.
You probably wear mismatched socks a lot.
You're probably the kid that showed up on test day without a #2 Pencil.
Your favorite character on "Friends" was probably 'Ross'
You probably put ketchup on well done new York strip steak...
...and you probably still spell it, 'catsup'

I find that you are beneath the superior intelligence of the more enlightened people on this bulletin board. You probably even hate things that decent people don't like.
In fact, I've not yet seen any proof that you do not kick puppies.

Something something groupie ad hominem something something carrying someone else's water bag something something.

In fact - you are so something something groupie ad hominem something something - that if it had been YOU that responded to Petes most recent post by using words like spurious and mendacious - well, I would be demanding that your entire IP range be banned.

You Sir are a bad poster and I hereby insult you.








Have a nice weekend and don't forget - the hardware store sells broad brushes for a good reason - some shit can only be painted with a broad brush.

Thank you Sirs!
I have been here simply for my mental health and thru all of the discussions I have not always agreed but, I have always learned. I will say again that being allowed to be here as a guest has always been a pleasure! Now a little Port and Lynyrd Skynard and I'll read with a sense of satisfaction that I have been given the gift of Mr. Boxes prose.

With all of my respect for all of you,

Bob

It was a short play Rita. You didn’t miss much.

And as bblhead672 stated above - back to our regularly scheduled adult conversations.

Don’t be a stranger - you never know what you’ll miss !

ROTM82, do some research. You've been brainwashed by the cult of MSM and big social media giants.

1. Dissolve the fucking legislature. Proposed by founding member of the Democratic Socialist Party, House of Rep. Victor Berger, amendment put forth in 1911. It is liberals who continue, to this day 100+ years later, to call for the abolishment of the Senate, including Representative John Dingle. We can also add to the liberal attack on the US constitution: packing the Supreme Court with liberal-leaning justices, and adding two new states that would bring in four Democrat senators, locking Senate control. From there, they begin picking apart the Constitution's protections such as free speech, freedom of religion and the right to bear arms.

2. Send all Democrats to Siberia. Corral them all in concentration camps. Bernie Sanders' staffer, Martin Weissgerber: "What will help us in when we send all the Republicans to the re-education camps. The gulags were founded as re-education camps. It was a beautiful thing." Minnesota Democrat party spokesman William Davis wrote in reference to Republicans that they should be "brought to the guillotines." Liberal protesters put a Trump effigy in a guillotine. Need more examples of the left's "tolerance" for the right? There are too many to list here.


3. Amend the Constitution to start a Trump dynasty. It’s clear we are all tired of elections anyway when they don’t go our way. Might as well do away with them permanently. This is something the Democrats want to do via abolishing the Electoral College. Elections didn't go the way they wanted in 2016? But, but, Hitlery got the popular vote!! Boohoo. Democrats want to abolish the Electoral College so they can win every election with their right-coast, left-coast ghettos of liberal voters.

4. I find it incredible that a group of people who devoted their lives to the liberation of enslaved peoples have given themselves over so willingly to a mendacious, mindless cult of personality. That is the shittiest thing to say to ANY member of the U.S. military, but especially those who have committed their lives to helping those who are oppressed by the type governments that liberals, ironically, hope America will one day have.

I'll bet you believe, as Michelle Obama likes to crow about Democrats, that you've "taken the high road" here.

S.

Unfortunately the young Infantrymen and teacher didn’t get past the welcome stage and won’t get to learn anything from this site.

I suppose it’s just as well, except that he will likely pass his bias onto his students; which is sad.

What was he here to learn exactly? He used a clean email to sign up here, his intentions were off from the get go. Maybe he was trying to start some sort of insurgency.... if only he could drop a 500 ton payload of something.... but I digress.
