Rather telling.

No you aren't - remember you are the one that said something like Obama would have to get caught with a girl scout or something for him to lose the election? If that is such a foregone conclusion then the only bet is that all the troops will be out in 18 months.

Little twerp - lol - quite mature of you. There goes what little respect anyone might have had for you.

Whatever, I've grown tired of your constant backpedaling. Put up or shut up.

Okay, so radar is going to try pettifogging with technicalities to make excuse after excuse never to pay up if and when called for. That is known to normal people as "cheating." He's declared an intention to cheat even before placing the wager. Integrity? Not on your tintype, radar, you who are in thrall to your basest emotional drives, and only the basest. Base emotional drives are evinced in a great readiness to call everyone else an asshole. It will instruct you to look up the phrase "spherical asshole." The less I am influenced or dominated by you, the shittier your language and the more poo-flinging you do: evidence of a third-rate intellect and an incapacity for grace. You've lost when you no longer argue the merits of your case in matters of policy but resort to the adhominem.

Why Lumberjim over Undertoad I have no idea -- seems an altogether unmerited disparaging of UT, and what's up with that one? Radar ain't tellin' any more than he's proven anything on which he disagrees with me. Well, bullshit artists have no business being anywhere near a picture of the Madonna anyway.

Well, anyway, it all suggests he's not successful enough to afford risking his thousand or his three thousand, whichever. Yeah, he has the dishonor of being a blowhard and a schmuck, and classicman has neatly bent him over a picket fence and is porking him until he looks like a unicorn and sounds like a gargle commercial.

Once again, I'll remark that his reasons for disliking the Republicans -- all the way back to that distinctly libertarianoid Reagan -- would suit the tastes of a crazy or a bigot. Unhappily for his kind of thinking, I am neither.

You're your own worst enemy/a, Paul. After all, you can't recognize any libertarians who aren't you, which makes you less than libertarian, pointlessly hostile to freedom of thought, and more than foutu. Sounds like your departure from the LP was attended with no regret at all from any quarter. Politics is a team effort, and narcissistic personalities can't adapt. If they can't oppress or domineer, they must flee. Bye bye.

Today, I am thankful I have unequivocally shut Radar the hell up. He has nothing to say; I've got his number.

Now, if only we can shut you up, our lives will be complete.

You know they do show it in the UK now, right? I don't know channel information or anything, but I think it's on right after the Daily Show (International Version) just like it is here.

Not on More4 which is how I watch Daily Show. I don't know if one of the cable channels carries it. I don't have any subscription channels.

Pie, you'll have to drop back to a Plan B, what with UT being a sporting and tolerant sort. Try turning the :p around and tongue-kissing it. :p

Colbert's funnier than I am anyway. I'm just witty. Some of the opposition is halfway there.
