It's nothing but liberals and the only men there are faggots. At least the bull-dykes might be able to help out a little. I can't believe the mental gymnastics that some of these "journalists" perform.

Remember when they said Nate Silver's math and facts were sissy un manly things and therefore wrong? The people trying way too hard to be macho are often incompetent cowards and essentially just pansies who think getting all grunty voiced and impulsuve is a substitute for actually using your brain. A lot of them have this delusion because it gets stupidly encouraged by other grunty would be alpha male cowards. To me they are like yappy little yorkies barking constantly about how manly and tough they think they are - when really they are just irritating primadonnas. Ohh yeahhh, a MAN totally would have powered up and Goku-ed that shooter because penis havers privelege actually causes bullets to curve around them in the air out of sissy fear. Sure sure.  Anyway, I hope that people take away from this the fact that people obsessed with machismo are really just insecure fools incompetents and cowards who over rely on male privelege to excuse their royal fuckups when they make tremendously stupid decisions. Male privelege is eroding these days and rightly so - the effect is that it leaves the overly macho idiots looking exactly like the yapping little yorkies they are. I'd take a competent man with a lisp and a sensitive tone over an incompetent boob who thinks straining to speak an octave lower than his natural voice at all times peppering tough guy bullshit into whatever he says will make his lovely ideas magically work.

Zuhzuhzombie!! posted:drat. Actually the worst part about it is it was a she  But as Joementum posted above, it's not even true. Some of the teachers and custodial staff at the school were shocked to learn that despite having believed they were men their whole life, they just learned from an idiot at the National Review that they are in fact apparently not men. bobkatt013 posted:Didn't Columbine have a male teacher die and multiple male students? To go even further, in Aurora, one of the most  stories to come out of it was an unmarried couple were at the theater with their two children, one was like 4-5, the other was an infant, the father was holding the infant. When the shooting began, the mother dove on top of the older child to shield him and got shot in the process, meanwhile the guy just left the baby, ran to his car and drove off. He didn't even find out they all were relatively fine until getting a call from his girlfriend from the hospital later in the day.Then he asked her to marry him and she said yes. I don't think I could marry someone who leaves a baby behind when fleeing a shooting scene. I mean it's a baby, you don't even have to do anything, you can just run with it in your arms like it's a football.

Rush was just explaining that "they" haven't lost america. Because apparently all the independents in america voted for Romney, but he failed to get his base fired up like Obama. So america is in fact not dead and lost to the republican party. What is with the "low information voters" code word? I am relatively successful, pay my fair share in taxes without complaint, and work pretty hard and still voted for Obama. Do people like me not exist in El Rushbo's world?

Now 'low information' is just a way to call someone who voted for the other guy dumb; instead of people who vote straight ticket, can't find Iraq on a map, and don't know the difference between debt and deficit.

Lord Lambeth posted:Okay remember this right wing meme Not only that but read this: quote:Israel’s gun control laws are the opposite of America’s, say Israeli officials. “Only those who have a license can bear arms and not everyone can get a license,” the head of the firearms licensing department told the Jerusalem Post. To qualify for a license, Israelis must at least age 21, pass a physical and psychological examination, undergo a background check and then qualify at a licensed shooting range. Gun owners are retested every three years, they get a one-time supply of 50 bullets when they order their weapon, and as of next year, they must keep their gun in a safe.

Listening to Rush and Sean the past couple days, there's been this weird recurring thing. They keep talking about how Obama is trying to humiliate the Republicans. By refusing to immediately capitulate, Obama's rubbing their noses in it(they always say "it," not "our recent electoral defeat") They both kept playing this same clip of Obama saying that Boehner had conceded the need to let some tax cuts expire. They kept pointing to the word "conceded" as Obama trying to publicly humiliate Boehner Did they use similar language after Clinton's re-election? I know Democrats didn't sound like this after Bush got re-elected and said he could do whatever he wanted

Reading this thread, does anyone else get the feeling that the American 'left' spends way too much time and effort responding to the Republican party craziness? Obama was re-elected, and so the Democrat party maintains vast amounts of power. Democratic military leadership nailed Bin laden and has made strides toward healthcare reform, and there's enough support to keep Republicans marginalized for at least a while--maybe a long time. But despite being the definitive American political party, most of their time is still spent on the defensive because some Tea Bag nutter made something up on FOX. Maybe this time should be spent instead improving their own party. Democrats desperately need to retake the branding of American patriotism. Right-wing TV and radio somehow holds this badge of honor while being a 'democrat' still has a slightly uneasy ring to it because it's soured by so much propaganda and fighting. I've been out of the US for a long time, and everywhere else in the world (at least Thailand and West Europe) people think of the Democrats as "Yeah, real America! Hollywood! Cowboys! Obama!" and Republicans as sleazebags and there isn't really much debate about this. I just don't know why these same sentiments are missing in the states.

People in DC just haven't faced up to the fact that the GOP has been taken over by crazies and there's no bargaining with them. It's still assumed they can be reasoned with. As long as that possibility exists, the thinking goes, we shouldn't go overboard and write them off, because that would be too aggressive, too uncivil. Too many of the people running things are operating on outdated assumptions and are avoiding the reality of current politics.

That's also because they're old, and political bodies all over the world are ageist. I remember the flak Obama got for being 'inexperienced' while he was already well over 45 when he got elected president and demonstrated himself to be much more in tune with the average American and the modern world than the entire Republican Party put together. Conversely, it was seen as somehow unfair to call McCain's age into question, and it had to be done in coded language ("his health").

As someone living in DC, I assure you, this is not the case. Most people around here realize how batshit the Republicans are (or at least how batshit a large portion of their base is), the problem is more that Democrats are a much more inclusive party, and as a result, people often disagree (and get no where as a result) on how to do things.
