Hard lefty? Oh that's right, anyone who doesn't have their head buried firmly in the ground towing the neo-con line is concidered a hard lefty. I'm sure 82 will feel all warm and fuzzy knowing someones willing to defend his behavior.

His behavior is no worse than your own. Whenever you get frustrated you resort to calling him and anyone else you disagree with names. How many people on here agree with your assertion that he's known as the biggest a-hole around here? I'd bet it's 4 or 5 like I originally asserted. But that's nothing knew for you is it? Extending your own opinion to others. If you feel that he's an a-hole he's "known as the biggest a-hole around here". Grow up.

Grow up? Nice assumption buddy. I don't care what you think, I know how many PM's I've recieved from others, I know how many people feel that way, I'm not speaking for anyone who hasn't spoken for themselves. But you keep playing big hero man, it's a hoot!

Also, show me where I've ever been the first to call anyone a name who didn't make a snide remark at me first.

What assumption did I make? That I think you need to grow up? I don't care if you're 15 or 55, you still having some growing up to do. I'm not playing hero or even siding with 82's arguement. It's just become quite apparent that whenever you get into a debate on here you start throwing around insults.

<sigh> Your assumtion of how many people feel the way I do. Again, if you're going to make an accusation, back it up. I'm sure it's going to be easy since you claim "whenever". Show where I made the first dig. I never have and won't deny that I throw them back, but if someone is going to get personal, I have no problem throwing it back at them. Apparently you've read all of my posts and followed everything that I've said over the past 6 years to justify your accusation? So show me.

easy Klod, it was a general statement about "those guys". i'm laid up in bed from two back surgeries and when possible, I like to keep my answers as short as possible because every time I type this stuff, I'm hurting myself (i hate this board and the crack-like addiction i have to it).

Sorry bro! I'm just tired of people making up crap and lumping my name in there without cause. Hang in there and thanks for explaining.

So anytime some makes a "dig" it's all cool to let the "FU's" and "a-holes" fly?

<82>
"Saw the interview Donald and glad you posted this... nidan, Cheese, KloD, carnutt, Yuma, LIAC, and all the rest - I'm sure you'll work overtime to find another "story" to toss out there... Try to get some sleep fellas. The sun will rise again tomorrow, bringing more opportunity for you to smear and perpetuate falsehoods..."

Is this the "dig" that got your panties in a bunch? Ok, so he lumps you in with some others, you feel unjustly. Fine. Disagree with him. The name calling is just immature. Yes, he should not have lumped you in with the others btw.

Ah, so you can't find anything, so like 82, you just throw crap out there. This ignorance is not amusing, your accusations are not appreciated, but I'm bored with you now. If all your going to do is talk out your ass, we've got nothing furthor to talk about. You don't like what I have to say, put me on ignore.

what you quoted calls him (and me) a LIAR. I asked him where I was perpetuating falsehoods (lies) and smears without calling him names or saying FU but I also think any extremist says silly things to encite arguments (on both sides), thus I don't really get mad at 82 for calling me a liar or lumping me in with those guys. However, not everyone is forgiving to silly people and when they call you a LIAR I see no problem with someone telling them to F off if they value their opinion.

also, being lumped in with those guys is an insult in of itself.

My god my man. Please seek therapy for your anger issues. You may take that as a dig, but I hope the names do come flying my way. So high and mighty. You are the epitomy of the current democratic attitude that has pushed me further to the right.

My ignorance? My accusations? I said you love name calling when you disagree with folks(fact) and it's immature (my opinion). I accuse you of namecalling, you say that you do, I'd say the "accusation" is spot on then.

You said earlier that you don't care what I think. Fine. The feeling is mutual.

Anger issues? You are all over the place my friend, where do I show anger? I didn't come at you, you called my the a-hole remember. I didn't accuse you of participating in that bs remember, you accused me. Yet you can't provide one example to back up your trash. I am tired of your brand of stupidity around here, just make **** up and throw it. You're the worst kind of troll, you add nothing to the board. Nothing.

Like I said, put me on ignore or don't respond to my posts. I have nothing to say to you, I'd appreciate the same back.

Yep. No anger at all in your posts.

Here's what I don't understand. Why was Monagle fired? Everybody keeps focusing on whether or not Palin tried to pressure him into firing her brother-in-law. I still think it's pretty obvious that she and her family and her people were a bit out of line with their persistence after Wooten had already been investigated and disciplined, but that isn't the real issue I see. I thought the issue was that this guy, Monagle, felt like he was fired because he did not cave to the pressure put on him by the governor and her people. Again, from what I've read (admittedly not extensive) there's been no explanation of his firing. I won't even get into the fact that when the governor replaced him she did it with somebody and they had to pay to leave because of his own embarrassing scandal.

82 and others defending the governor on this and all of her other issues,

I really don't think you are capable of objectivity here, but just try to realize how completely hypocritical the right is being here. Let's go hypothetical for a minute. Imagine that John McCain was a Democrat and had made this choice for his vice presidential candidate. You guys would be all over the ticket for every one of these issues. You should be. I can't tell you how frustrated I would be if Obama had chosen somebody like her.

Hell, imagine if Obama had a pregnant, 17-year-old daughter. The media would handle it exactly the same way, except it would be the far right making it a huge issue. And it would be all over obama for trying to initially cover it up, and it's pretty obvious that the McCain campaign/Palin people were trying to do that for the first couple days. Have you read the stuff from the father's my space page? If that was a black kid who knocked up one of Obama's hypothetical 17-year-old daughters the right would have a field day with it.

Why is it okay for the campaign and this woman to continually talk about how she's a great VP candidate because she is a mother of five? Why is it okay for them to continuously talk about her son and her husband and her Down's syndrome kid, but it's not fair for anybody to mention her 17-year-old pregnant daughter? Nobody is allowed to talk about how it's pretty clear the to young people are getting pressured into getting married. Hell, according to the McCain campaign the media isn't allowed to ask her questions about anything. She is allowed to go out there and read the speeches they've written for her, but nobody is allowed to ask her any questions. It's utterly ridiculous.

By the way, I want you guys to know that I thought the same thing when Obama tried to say that his wife should be off limits when she was criticized for her "the first time I'm proud to be an American" comments. She was out there campaigning for him. How could that possibly be off limits? If Cindy McCain made a comment like that I would be disappointed in the Obama campaign if they didn't use it. In fact I am disappointed that the Obama campaign hasn't used Phil Gramm's comments more. If I was them I would have those comments and a lot more about Phil Gramm running nonstop on commercials.

If, as I suspect, that governers are bred to request money from congress for their pet projects, I wouldn't have so much an issue. I mean, you have to work with the system in place or you arent' doing your state its due service, right? Even if you don't agree with them nationally. it's the whole states/local politics vs. the fed. if they are dishing out, and you don't take, you look like an ass to your local constituents...right?

The rest of your post I'll adress sometime this weekend....
That's great, but it misses the entire point. This is called deflecting 101. Janet Napolitano is not a surprise VP choice, and most importantly she didn't just give a speech at the Republican convention in front of 40 million people about she's a reformer because she has always fought porkbarrel spending. McCain and his team and Palin herself are claiming that the number one thing she brings to the table is that she is a reformer. McCain has been screaming about porkbarrel spending forever, and especially at this convention. He just chose a lady who secured $25 million in porkbarrel spending for her small town of 7000 people. He just chose a woman who left her small town in $27 million debt despite the fact that they had no debt and a balanced budget when she became mayor. I don't see how anybody can say that her claims about the bridge to nowhere are anything but complete BS.

So I ask you, if she's not truly the reformer she claims to be, if she's only against porkbarrel spending when it's politically expedient, what else do she bring to the table except a far right agenda? Oh yeah, I forgot that she has so much foreign-policy/domestic policy experience as a 20 month governor of Alaska and head of the Alaskan National Guard that her campaign has to hide her for three weeks (there are only nine weeks left until the election) while they give her a crash course in what she is supposed to already know.

I would just like to see one righty admit that choosing Palin was a purely political, reckless decision... even if it does work. There is just no defending this one except to say that it might just fool the American public.

Joe
