2012 Poll: Will Palin Run for POTUS?

[IBCoupe]

This is what I was referring to. Of all those quotes, this one bothered me the most:

"We took the Bible and prayer out of public schools. Now we're having weekly shootings. We had the 60s sexual revolution, and now people are dying of AIDS."

So maybe "revisionism" was the wrong word. It's a blatant post hoc fallacy, and it bothers me when it's used on the political scene - she presumes to assign blame and there's no indication that she's doing it correctly. She's making policy suggestions there, and they aren't American.

You are starting to remind me of that kid who got his a$$ kicked for talking too much.

...the difference is, I never got my a$$ kicked. And I'm usually right, especially when I'm clobbering your ill-conceived posts.

You remind me of the snooty cheerleader I met at a desert party in college. I PIIHB and made her walk home.

I guess what I'm say is.... when I make a comment on the above topic you always seem to chime in with something off the topic and smart alec. Resist the temptation next time and stay on topic. Try acting like an admin/ceo and not some 2 bit attention grabbing troll. If you dont like what I have to say simply ignore my post and keep it moving, or simply delete my post if you wish. If you act out in public as if you were on this forum, I promise you that your A$$ would be kicked on a regular basis, but I know you are smarted than that...right? You can hide behind your monitor and keyboard and talk big game, but in the real world we all know its a different story. Now carry on with the original topic!

to stay on topic:
I simply said, She will not run, but if she does I would be highly amused. I voted "NO" If she runs if would be a big push for the Dems and a shot in the leg for the Repubs.

I understand what you mean thats why I said its a bit more complicated than a simply cause/effect correlation.

You're only saying that because in Florida you can't tie your elephant to a parking meter without putting a coin in the meter.

Sorry. I couldn't resist. AZ will know exactly what that means. I hope he finds it as apropos and humorous right here as I think it is.

Anyway, UpStar, I totally agree with you. Sarah Palin on the ballot would definitely help both the Dems and a moderate independent while hurting the Republican cause. What could happen, though, is that she would make a moderate Republican look so good during primary campaigning the Republicans might nominate a reasonable candidate.

Weird! Some little kid called my Silver Ice H2 Hummer a big elephant in a downtown parking structure yesterday. Hmmmm

Excuse my poor use of the ellipses, but anyhow...... Exactly. Palin was the crutch in the McCain camp and everyone knew except her rogue followers. McCain lost by 10.5Million popular votes in the election vs. Obama and in no way will she be able to capture the attention the near 70Million popular votes that Obama received. She is damaged goods in the eyes of many democrat,republicans & independents with an agenda that only promotes herself and that racist group of tea baggers. This may be far fetched, but I see someone like a Newt Gingrich stepping in and representing for the repubs.

that racist group of tea baggers.

Ignorance at it's finest. For you homework today tell me where the original group of "teabaggers" came from and what made them known. There is a specific event I have my finger on. Maybe you and Google can spend some quality time together and figure it out.

Not off-topic. Your comment was unoriginal, boring, and contributed nothing to the conversation.

"I don't think she'll run, but if she does I'll laugh." <-- See what I mean?

Wow. OK. Thanks for sharing. How about some more analysis, perhaps?

If you dont like what I have to say simply ignore my post and keep it moving, or simply delete my post if you wish.

Not gonna happen. I'm not much of a rule-follower.

Besides, I like my rule better: If you don't like my responses, then bring your "A-Game".

Roughly translated: I'll try being nicer if you'll try being smarter.

Ask anyone in this forum - I respect those who put effort into their arguments, even if I disagree with them 100%.

If you act out in public as if you were on this forum, I promise you that your A$$ would be kicked on a regular basis, but I know you are smarted than that...right?

Nope. I call it like I see it in person, too. Hasn't ever gotten me into anything I can't handle. I can hold my own.

YOU might feel like lashing out when someone disputes your position, but I don't. In my experience, only dumb people resort to physical violence when they get an intellectual asskicking... and since I don't spend a lot of time with unintelligent people, there's not much danger of that.

Anyhow, don't mistake any of this for dislike or irritation - I'm just saying, there's a higher standard in here.

If I don't clobber you with facts, someone else will - and there's some pretty smart cookies in this forum.

Thanks.

BTW, this was much better, and I agree 100%:

EDIT: Oops. Except for this moronic statement:

Seems you might have a problem with broad generalizations and generic, canned opinions... and using emotionally-charged words like "racist" where they don't really apply.

Oh well. We'll keep working on that.

I know all I need to know about the tea bag party and it wasn't from google.com so lets keep the talk on Palin and 2012

I'll check back with you all in 2 1/2 weeks or so.

No you don't. Is what you don't know is the anti-Catholic anti-Pope group calling themselves "Teabaggers" burned down a Catholic Church during the Bible riots in the early 1800's (I could be slightly off on the time frame). So when you call us "racist Teabaggers" you are incorrect. You should call us "racist teabagger bigots".

I like how you start the teabagger subject and than when you get flamed you take it upon yourself to point out that we're getting off topic.

Ladies and gentlemen, mrs. speaker, presenting the President Of The United States of America:


Question is: is the rifle a better companion than a teleprompter?

[AZhitman]

How is that any less offensive than Obama with a Hitlerstache?

[heliochrome85]

last i checked, she wasnt the president of the united states
she also didnt kill 6 million people thanks to her bigoted world view.

//thats why its less offensive.

[AZhitman]

No one's moustache killed anyone. Settle down.

[AZhitman]

last i checked, she wasnt the president of the united states

He's just a man.

she also didnt kill 6 million people thanks to her bigoted world view.

No, but she's holding a gun. Guns have killed many more than that.

Better yet, let's go for a new Photoshop: Obama with a Hitlerstache in a pink thong with a dildo in one hand and a naked 13-year old Thai ladyboy draped around his waist.

Is that better?

Again, I ask, how is that any less offensive?

[stebo0728]

Hey...im an equal opportunity offender.

Hey look, they took her advice....someone finally put some lipstick on a pig

She wants to be at the top of the incoming Ethanol Empire.

What Ethanol Empire? Corn ethanol is a net loss in energy (takes more energy to create than is yielded in use). Now sugar cane ethanol rocks, much more energy efficient. Might find an Empire forming in Brazil.

brain queefs abound.

If my brain is queefing, does that explain the blood oozing out of my ear once a month or so?

[heliochrome85]

no, thats just a normal response to the random acts of derp here on the forum.

[stebo0728]

now that you mention it, it did get worse when I started posting here....
