Thank you Stark. Thank you for proving my point about Nader being a fascist.

I can't wait to see Gully try to spin this.

I thought you were a huge Nader fan? How is Nader a fascist?

I stopped one sentence before Lewis. The first sentence was enough to tell me that the article is less worthy of a read than street graffiti.

You could post just about any of Duke or Einzige's replies to Phil in that thread here. The best is when Duke basically defends himself by saying "I'm a troll".

I'd say that argument has actually topped anything Naso has ever said in the "Laughably dumb arguments" category.

PA was an absolute fluke, and it's still hard for me to imagine that McCain actually won a majority of CDs there (even though PA-03 is very very borderline and it's not even for sure that McCain won there).  It is not in any way a GOP gerrymader.

Sources are telling me a 4-6 point win for Murphy tonight...

"Sources"?

The Final Predictions thread.

I'm reading his argument with Phil in the thread about Jews and I'm laughing my ass off at his sheer stupidity (despite the fact that I don't agree with Phil at all)

Read the thread:

They got the day for this wrong.

I loved this line here. It's not inaccurate either:

... Obama.... wants a different system, a system I (and many others) are well aware of.

But, as usual, you are too coy to tell us what you are supposedly 'aware of'.  You're like a coquettish teenage girl you are, SS.

What's so funny about that?

BACK TO THE FUNNY:

I had forgotten how stupid people were during the primaries.

Did you really need those last 3 words?

make 'em talk for 30 hours

If Reid had any balls, that's what he'd have them do.  Make them read the fucking phonebook.

ANGRY CONSTINE

The pirates didn't kill anyone, so the killing of them was clearly excessive force. Plus, it would seem that the adminstration has done nothing about the domestic piracy problem, which has stolen much more money from Americans that these pirates ever did.

jmfcst is yet another poster who has acheived self-parody status. Though of course he did long ago.

Reminds me of the time WalterMItty accused DailyKos of being full of 9/11 conspiracy theorists even though it has a zero tolerance policy against 9/11 conspiracy theories. Promoting them equals an instant ban.

There's a difference between actual centrism and moderate heroism. Don is arguing in favor of the latter.

There's no age requirement. Some movies are instant classics, although that phrase has been ruined.

Indeed.  Films like "Field of Dreams" were true instant classics, but other films, say, the Star Wars IV, V, and VI movies didn't really become true classics until I, II, and III and we had the complete set.

BTW, Kevin Costner's "Field of Dreams" turns 20 years old this week.

...he really said the original Star Wars movies were not classics until the prequels?

Click for context:

We'll see.

I'm actually impressed that he hasn't said something along the lines of:

"Unlike the rest of you, I'm not a publicity hound.  I don't care what f****ts on the Internet care about me.  Right now I'm more focused on the recession.  These new numbers have very, very bad consequences.  I won't say what quite yet, but be on your guard.  Things will get worse before they get better."

Those type of compilations take about 3 minutes to do. Just search for the poster using said phrase and you got all the results. Nothing obsessive. CARL's compilation of MODU on the other hand was clearly obsessive as it was all about different stuff and topics and probably took hours to create.

Happy 9th birthday.

Ben is approaching Winfield/Mitt Romney levels.

[I spent the winter writing songs about getting better]

Don't you love how ben always backs up his points with such strong arguments? Reminds me of his unbeatable argument when I said he didn't live in the South and he responded with "Yes, I do."

Which is kind of what you do.

Maybe you two aren't as different as you think.

Uh, no. I at least make arguments, you may find them weak, but I make them. It reminds me of Rowan's hilariously dumb agument as to why Norm Coleman wasn't comparable to Al Gore (basically something along the lines of that Coleman actually led on election night or whatever), I'll admit this is at least an argument as stupid an inane as it was, unlike what ben says.
