I have made a point to keep my more radical views on many issues which I feel very strong about confined to those threads where they should be confined. I did stray a bit over a year ago, I was called out on it by the community, I figured out how to maintain and express my views to those areas that are most important to me within those narrow topics. That is what I do. If you don't like Redux, I don't really care.

BTW you dragged the topic into this discussion.

Do you see that you're not fooling anyone redux? We all think you're an idiot.

Stop that, you're resorting to his tactics. Consider yourself moderated... uh, because you're a chick. ;)

Calm down, that was my whole point...


:D

No..I dont want it strictly controlled, but I am not particularly interested in simply reading the incessant snipping of articles/opinions....or the personal attacks that follow when those snips are challenged.

Then move on. Because I am going to be on these issues until I see changes in how the government operates.

Nope...as I said, I'll just keep exposing your bullshit and childish antics.

LOL.

Anytime, you want to discuss the issues...bring it on! Merc certainly doesnt want to discuss anything. If you disagree with him, you "fail"...but please, show some originality and try a different approach.

See you around the block then.

My attempts at comedy central:

Tip toes in and calls Ebert out for causing a ruckus!

This thread is in derailment. I am putting it on report!

Just because I am a woman doesn't mean I am a pussy!

( modified SG quote)

besides I don't tip toe I pirouette!


Anyone laughing yet? :corn:

I don't.

I do. The attacks you've presented in this thread alone show that you are more interested in bringing down Merc and those who agree with him more than raising the level of discussion. You're being a hypocrite Redux.

I would suggest it is more calling him out for bullshit that he represents as facts rather than an attempt to bring him down.

But, hey, you are entitled to you own opinion.

Perhaps you can tell me how his "contribution" of 10 inane pics (one might be seen as funny...but ten?) contributes to a discussion or how it is constructive for him to scream "failed" when his snips are exposed for being less than factually correct or when I, or anyone, offer an opinion that differs from his?

I don't either. Don't speak for the entire board. :eyebrow:

Srsly??? Are you and Shaw tail-posting or did the joke go over your heads?

People don't really want to discuss politics, politics is really just an excuse to team up bicker isn't it? For. Fuck. Sake.

See? You men all stick together! :lol:

Hell no. I usually let Jesus deal with stuff like this since fighting over petty shit gives me a headache. He has patience, mercy, and these other so called "compromising traits". I just give each person a sword, throw them in a lion pit, and see if any survive.

:corn:

Hey. I've given money to NOW and Emily's List....good socialist causes that value giving women an equal voice :p

Deleted posts don't mean it didn't happen...

ISn't Ebert a movie critic? I mean WTF srsly...

WTF, because he's just a movie critic means he cant post an opinion? THATS especially one of the things that got my goat about conservatives. During the elections, they always got into a snit when actors voiced their political opinions.

oh wait wait, is this a poll? I think Redux is an idiot too... now where is that button?;)

Oh man..a poll? I better call in ACORN to steal the election from the wingnuts. :D

Yes, primarily. However, he's also a blogger - which is where this column came from.

I suspect that since he's had cancer and lost his voice, he's trying to share his voice in other ways.

I'm a little confused over this post since it seems to differ from:

After all the shit slinging, I was trying to change the course of the thread.

Fuggit - as you were.

Safe move. But then again you always take the safe move.

Didn't know that. Thanks for the info.

I was referring to Rush and Robertson, not Ebert.

yeh, right. :headshake

How bout Danny Glover . . .

So it isn't the fault of a pact with the Debbil or some voodoo shit - Its because of the failed talks in Copenhagen.
Gotcha - - - NOT.

politics turns people into assholes. it's magical
