rehmwa 2 #26 August 23, 2012 QuoteQuoteI love that this is a debate about who's unhinged factions are running the parties - and it still just falls apart with people pointing at the other team and saying "they suck, we're not so bad" it's the era of picking the lesser of two evils - Kang vs Kodos no, you're missing my point. For the GOP, it's really a case of "we," For the Democrats, a person like Maxine Waters will never set party direction. They're the crazy aunts and uncles you have to acknowledge as part of the family, but you can leave them upstairs when guests come over. my bad - I should have written "REALLY, REALLY - they suck, we're not so bad" ... Driving is a one dimensional activity - a monkey can do it - being proud of your driving abilities is like being proud of being able to put on pants Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lawrocket 3 #27 August 23, 2012 You're joking, right? The same party who is arguing that they know how to fix the country and economy when the evidence suggests they don't have a fucking clue? The same Democratic party that pitches a fit over a state law that says observational data must be considered in making predictions about the future sea level? ( I know, I know. Empirical evidence has never been part of the scientific process.) Both sides look the other way at evidence, John. It's why I cite Simpson-Bowles. Neither side was willing to do anything with it because, well, if "4" is not the politically expedient answer, then 2+2 equals 5. Evidence - neither party has a fucking clue. The argument is over which one knows less. My wife is hotter than your wife. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jclalor 12 #28 August 23, 2012 QuoteThe kooks and scientific illiterates among the Dems are not driving the party agenda. The kooks and scientific illiterates among the GOP are driving the party agenda. That's the difference. The split second a Republican refers to a scientific fact, is the split second he will have frothing tea baggers demanding his ouster. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pirana 0 #29 August 23, 2012 QuoteIs this article by the same left wing hack, David Horsey who believes Romney could be elected President and Biden could be Vice President? What's the difference who wrote it if it is true? I feel sorry for the mainstream Republicans whose party has been hijacked by fundie wackos. These anti-intellectual fucks seem to solidify their base the farther they move into fringe lunacy ideas. Very bizarre thet they have any backing at all." . . . the lust for power can be just as completely satisfied by suggesting people into loving their servitude as by flogging them and kicking them into obedience." -- Aldous Huxley Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
