People drill you on your first statement because you came off like a poorly educated ass. Your problem isn't that you have extreme beliefs, it's that, just like Simply Majestic, you have poorly supported conjecture. That's it. That's all. You have opinions, and you have nothing to back them up. You haven't offered a shred of evidence, outside of basically quoting Limbaugh, someone you've already discredited yourself. And then you slam people who talk politics on gamingforce, something you yourself are currently doing. You need a new shovel, yet? That one in your hands looks a little worn down. This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it. John Mayer just asked me, personally, through an assistant, to sing backup on his new CD. |
Now I can see how you could have compared me to Simply Majestic, Deni. Cause I see what this guy's doing and it's basically the same.
Aramaethe, a word of advice. Best to back down completely. I don't say this to be rude, it's just how things work. If something's your opinion, let it be known that it's just your opinion and don't speak of it like it's fact. If you have some evidence supporting it, cite the evidence. Take a debate class, maybe it'll help. But you're not gonna win on any point you've tried to make, now. Cut your losses, and come back with a new approach. I can easily agree, though, that John Kerry is a poor excuse for a politician. Then again, so are a lot of the others, in my opinion. I don't think anyone here is extolling Kerry's political greatness in any way, so don't expect much argument there. I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body? |
Aye, I don't think anyone is here to say John Kerry is a competent person. The man lost a damn near unloseable election, he routinely sticks his foot down his throat, and he's utterly lacking in charisma.
I was speaking idiomatically. John Mayer just asked me, personally, through an assistant, to sing backup on his new CD. |
That's all well and good. What I'm saying is that RAB's personal experience doesn't mean jack squat. Also, considering the Project for the New American Century it's hard not to think liberals are ruining this country. What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now? |
No no, there are better ways to get someone killed than putting them in the armed forces. If you put him there, he'll just be wasting precious ammo. Maybe some of our own precious ammo, too.
FELIPE NO |
What Kerry said didn't bother me that much but if you put yourself in a the shoes of someone serving in the military or one of their family members I can see how it might be a little offensive. Whether it was a joke or not, he should have just appologized and kept to himself but instead he had to keep digging a bigger hole for himself by not shutting up. Whether you like Kerry or not, he just doesn't have a sense of humor and he always seems robotic like if he has no feeling which probably adds to people's dislike of him at times.
I do think this is being overdone though. I mean, he did give an apology though it was a very mediocre one at that. What happen to the days when politicians did have minds of their own. Nowadays they just follow each other's butts. The Republicans seem to be mindless drones of the President and Democrats don't want to agree with anything that has to do with Republicans. It's not a bad thing to disagree with your own party on something; it shows that you can think for yourself and you don't let other people control what you think. What, you don't want my bikini-clad body? |
I think some politicians should use their sense of humor a lot more. It probably would've helped Bob Dole out back in 96. The eps of the Daily Show where he's a guest are so damn funny. Stewart seems perpetually surprised by how sharp and hilarious he is. Jam it back in, in the dark. |
In national politics, party unity is key. Without that, you cannot send a unified message about what the party (and therefore YOU) stand for. People are almost universally lazy when it comes to politics. Instead of researching a particular person's stance, they vote more or less on party lines. If one party presents clearly and concisely "I stand for X, Y, and Z," and the other does not, then generally people will vote for the person representing the former. There are exceptions, however, such as scandals or a poor candidate. There's nowhere I can't reach. |
