Ron Paul/FP.com Flashback Pop Quiz

[Damocles]

It doesn't matter how many years of experience you've had with that poster. What in the hell difference would that make?

My posts in this thread ARE NOT ABOUT POSTERS, they are about Ron Paul and the evidence that demonstrates why voters are not interested in him.

Adam throws up a Ron Paul thread seemingly everyday. Yet Paul has NO CHANCE at being nominated.

What makes you believe that my posts in this thread aren't right on point and that Darla should be questioned because she agrees with what quite obviously, most of America thinks of this man.

Is it news to you that many consider him to be an absolute kook?

Adam has not yet addressed, and feel free to do so yourself, as to how in the fuck Paul pretends to be anti-corporatist when at the same time he's shilling for complete corporate control without restrictions.

I'll wait for your answer because your buddy sure as hell didn't have one.

The post I answered was about that specific poster. The world is not revolving around you.

Personally I think that Darla agrees with your posts because she thinks they are right on point and well-written. That doesn't change that I think that Adam made his point in ignorance of the poster, not because she 'is a girl' but because he doesn't have a ton of experience with Darla. It appeared to him that she had not considered the points he made and he stated so.

So, what I was speaking of is that poster, and my opinion that he had not made that post because 'she is a girl', but because he felt that there had been no consideration.

That I think he is wrong is true. I think she considered then dismissed his points because she agrees with yours more. But that doesn't mean that I believe that he made that point because she was a 'girl'.

50 posts, because one poster happened to agree with another?

Yeah, anyone who knows Darla, knows she's one of the smartest and most astute posters here. Who's that hack that said or implied she was just an intellectually incurious parrot, who just agreed with BAC?

LOL - that's so far from the truth, it hilarious that any hack would even suggest it.

I agree with this.

However, those who know Adam would know that he didn't make that post because he thinks she was that way because she was a girl. It was because he doesn't quite know her yet.

Let's get this back on track.

Libertarians think Ron Paul is the second coming of George Washington, Apple Pie, and just the full-on American Way all rolled up into one sweet, sweet choice for President.

Socialists think Ron Paul is a dangerous fanatic who rapes chickens and strips barbie dolls naked....

GO!

"Socialists" do not make up the majority of the American people and there are far more than so-called "socialists" who think he's dangerous. REPUBLICANS also do not care about him or his policies. Are they also "socialists?"

Speaking of disingenuous .. you use the term "socialists" to define everybody liberal and on the left and you do so because "socialism" is a catch phrase for the right. It has absolutely nothing to do with substance and everything to do with buzz words and political spin. It indicates that the one using it has no knowledge of what socialism is and would rather debate semantics than the substance of an issue.

Honestly, he even looks crazy to me. When I see him answer a question, I see these bugged out eyes, and what comes out of his mouth often does not do anything to counter the impression his crazy eyes give me. I do notice people's eyes a lot. I noticed Bush's the first time I saw him, which was when he came out on stage with his hair all mussed up, probably by Karl Rove backstage, to give the impression he had been tormented by his decision not to stay the execution of Karla Faye tucker. And I thought, that guy doesn't look all there to me. You know, all these years later, I haven't seen anything to change my opinion either.

I've never been called intellectually lazy or incurious, for agreeing with another poster.

And anyone who has even read one or two posts by Darla, knows she's no parrot or hack. Far, far from it. Methinks there's a bit of sexism floating around.

I was being sarcastic, I thought it was clear by the ridiculous way I described everything. Man, you internalize everything!

He knows her from the other board. Not buying it.

So, I've never asked you what you had to say other than, "Ornot's right?" Never at all?

I don't think you've ever called me intellectually lazy. Not once.

I don't think he does. At the time Darla was on there I don't believe Adam and she had much interaction. You'd be surprised at how many come over here and actually make a point that they don't know her well at all.

In fact, I am pretty sure that Adam was one who made that very point when he recently started posting.

I've never called ANYBODY intellectually lazy. It is not a term I use. "disingenuous" is as close as I get, and it only applies to whatever post I am answering, never to a person's entire being.

Crap! It happened again!

Let's get this back on track.

Libertarians think Ron Paul is the second coming of George Washington, Apple Pie, and just the full-on American Way all rolled up into one sweet, sweet choice for President.

Socialists think Ron Paul is a dangerous fanatic who rapes chickens and strips barbie dolls naked....

GO!

(And for BAC, it is a joke, remember? A joke.)

Fair enough .. but perhaps you should have told Adam that Darla is as intelligent and well-read, if not more, as anyone here. I would have rather not seen you step into his mess by trying to defend his uninformed comment.

I don't believe that you harbor any sexist beliefs yourself and I hope Darla will be forgiving.

She usually is, and I most definitely should have done both at once rather than waiting until late to speak about Darla.

We'll see. I like them both.

I also like having you around. The whole reason for the board is the different views.

I think you know me by now my brother.

I never miss an opportunity to defend the left.

Alright, it doesn't matter, just forget it. I can take up what Adam said with Adam, which is what I did. The whole thing got blown out of proportion because you made posts that I took to mean, in the context of what was being said at the time, that I am some sort of cheerleader who doesn't post anything of any thought or worth, and that personally bothered me, because I would not have thought you would think so little of me. You have since said you didn't mean that, and don't think that, which I accept.

I think I rarely accuse someone of sexism in their dealings with me, you perceive that I do it often. Who knows where the truth lies there, since we all perceive different things. We could gather all of my posts and find out, and I think they'd show my perception to be the more realistic, but who wants to go through the trouble? I think that you dismiss the unconcious sexism that is probably going on here. Not every sexist statement or sexist act, is a conscious one.

Okay, but lets not pretend that adam is "simply getting to know her". BS - he knew her from the other board. It was the height of hackery, for him to parachute in here, and zero in on one poster to declare them intellecutally lazy.

Ron Paul: I like his foreign policy, and I like that he stands up to Bush's extra-constitutional power grabs.

Everything else, he's pretty much a loon on. And I think its the height of hypocrisy to declare that one is a libertarian, but they want the government to have the power to force a woman to carry an embryo to term.

Please keep the feminist trash under wrap, it's embarassing for the board.
