Another hilarious Mister Twister post that was accidentally placed here instead of the comedy goldmine.

Luckily the white majority in America is rapidly decreasing. Europe will soon be the only place in the world with large white majorities, and that's a socialist hell to white supremacist Republicans so they can't even flee there! Finally they'll feel the misery they've inflicted on others for generations.

Yes sorry for pretty much all the advancements in science, technology, and medicine. Damn those white people. We should've been putting bones through our noses and coloring our hair with cow urine the whole time

goodness, both those posts are atrocious.
Equating what I said (which is mostly true) to a "bones through noses" comment? Wow.

Yeah, he obviously forgot about Chris Christie for a moment. That's pretty tough to forgive.

I think that anyone who doesn't like Ayn Rand has anti-Semitic tendencies. 

She's one of the most popular Jewish writers in history.

Democrat, voting for Obama because I hate Mitt Romney more than any other person who has ever existed.

It's true.  I hate everything about him, and on a personal level I want him to fail.  He is scum, and deserves what scum deserves.

Mitt Romney appears to be a pretty sick human being, indeed. That post was only slightly hyperbolic.

The fact that Ryan only won a +4 plurality in a R+2 sample (and not to get into crosstabs too much here) means he is a big loser.

You apparently can't do math. If you readjusted to D+3 it would be a tie. Tie doesn't equal loser.

Apparently Wonkish can't do math either.

Anybody that read that knew what I meant. That after the adjustment it's essentially a tied poll. Don't read more into things than are there for only the purpose of trying to hit at me. Especially considering how much stuff you've written that could fill this thread(a lot easier for me to do to you than you to me).

Also since there is likely crossover(Dem's finding Ryan winner and GOP finding Biden winner) the net affect of the shift would actually be less than 5 which means if you really wanted to be a stickler my math is probably very accurate(even in some weird universe where you can somehow predict what the exact sample should have looked like given the polls exact methodology).

A D+3 sample would've meant Ryan losing by one, not a tie. Your snidely castigating Griffin for "apparently not being able to do math", then immediately thereafter failing at basic arithmetic yourself, solidly warranted you post's inclusion here.

a) I doubt you meant that for me...

b) this was before the GOP lurched into a psychiatric ward and had a brilliant record on Civil Rights.

Okay, what their recent terrible record?

I do not need to do this. I am voting for one of His followers and chosen representatives on Earth over the follower of a false prophet and false church and his atheist-worshipping running mate.

Trying way too hard.

I'm probably falling for trollbait here considering the source, but oh well -

I would not contend that the primarily white far left, as is sadly prevalent here, does not hold a degree of self-resentment and wishes to engage in a morbid self-flagellation through things like condoning gang culture, single motherhood, affirmative action, historical revisionism, anti-Westernism, Native American and/or Latino nationalism, etc, etc.

These sort of things might be construed as a "war on whites" as a whole, yes. But are Barack Obama or the mainstream Democratic Party engaging in such efforts? I don't think so- not yet, at least.

When the younger left that holds these views comes into the political sphere, more Lena Dunhams and Lincoln Restlers and Occupiers come of age, then yes, I think we can say such a thing is happening. I have good friends, great people, great arguers, but their politics are just mortifying.

Today's politicians, shall find themselves asked whether or not they are "with" this latest bout of progressivism. Being as they are, most will likely say yes- lest they find themselves derided as "reactionary". (With the Soviet Union and its brutal reality fading into the pages of history, I think this latest generation is less afraid to find Marxian thought valid and use its terminology)

Just look at Jimmy Carter's contortions, for one thing. Does anyone truly believe this Georgia Democrat could have ever endorsed 'homosexual marriage"? Likewise, we shall one day see Barack Obama endorse the latest left-wing fad.

So does this make me racist? Well, we've had this discussion before.

Simfan, when you become  as old and desiccated as I am, perhaps you will be a tad more suspicious of grand unified theories such as the one above, while chaos theory (yes, there are still patterns buried in there) becomes ever more compelling.

Single women want Barry Obama as their boyfriend, get it?

They want to have the sex with the Barry because he is younger than Mitt, and is hot with his shirt off, and has a nice big smile. 

Impressive cognitive dissonance there. I seem to recall you saying the same thing (but in a decidedly more positive tone) about Paul Ryan.

Single women only vote for the candidate they are most attracted too.  Paul Ryan's abs will attract a lot of female voters and it seems to be working so far.  Many catholic women find Paul Ryan attractive.  Even male Democrats vote for Obama because they find him attractive, like Chris Matthews and the thrill up his leg. 

But this ad is clearly implying that Young Women should want to sleep with Obama as their first time; and it will be just as good as if it were voting for him.  Obama is not a politician, he's a male sex symbol.

^^^This comment deserves to be here.

Equating someone who assesses 2 margin of errors adjustments to move a poll result in a completely different direction to someone that is looking at one margin of error and saying its essentially tied for being 1 pt off an exact tie, is just dumb.

I wouldn't expect a person who exactly fits the creation of this thread to understand this distinction though.
