Whoops!
I knew it was going to be a long month but not that long!
I don't know what this guy said, since the posts were already deleted when I got here, but the general rules for liberals on FR are relatively simple: If you want to participate, you need to create an account, and then spend some time just reading, getting a feel of the place. And when you do start posting, post very respectfully. (In other words, don't call Bush "DUH-bya" or yell "Gore really won!" or otherwise act in a generally antagonistic manner.) If you sign up and then immediately start posting liberal dogma attacks on the opinions of other Freepers, you're going to be presumed to be an intentional disruptor, and your account will be deleted.
Oh, and judging from the single sentence of riggs2002's posts in this thread that remains, "Thanks for letting me know I pushed the right buttons," it seems pretty obvious to me that he was here to stir up trouble, not engage in legitimate debate. If you're only here to "push buttons," then you're a disruptor, period.
Gee, I guess he's blown his cover.
How come people take a conservative seriously and not liberals like Roeper?
That's what really gnaws at this ass clown.
Be Seeing You,
Chris
Thanks for letting me know I pushed the right buttons.
Most of us conservatives still haven't learned that neat little trick that Katie "Eva Braun" Couric has of vomiting acid in the eyes of her political enemies (everyone to the right of Castro), otherwise I would have done that to you.
Uh, gee, that's gotta be next week or something.
Several months ago, a nationally known professor of history wrote an opinion piece in The New York Times. In the piece were several blatantly obvious misrepresentations of fact.
I called him on one personally, and he admitted his mistake and told me that the Times insisted on inserting the error in his piece (it was quite short - about 4 or 5 paragraphs).
Strangely, I don't recall the Gray Lady issuing a correction of their propaganda piece. ;-)
I guess everyone can be wrong, and I'll admit my mistake about Hildabeast. She is kind of a dunce, when you think about it. ;-)
I don't know if this statement is true of all Democrats, but it sure is true about clinton!!!
I have been debating on another site with some of the libs and they keep directing me to the The Daily Howler and bringing up things I am finding hard to defend.
Like yesterday when they were telling me that Ann outright lied in many instances. I said "show me!" Then on her last page they note:
COULTER (page 205): The day after seven-time NASCAR Winston Cup champion Dale Earnhardt died in a race at the Daytona 500, almost every newspaper in America carried the story on the front page. Stock-car racing had been the nations fastest-growing sport for a decade, and NASCAR the second-most-watched sport behind the NFL. More Americans recognize the name Dale Earnhardt than, say, Maureen Dowd. (Manhattan liberals are dumbly blinking at that last sentence.) It took the New York Times two days to deem Earnhardts name sufficiently important to mention it on the first page.
She DID lie here because I know and remember the Earnhardt story the following day ON PAGE ONE of the NYT. (I know because I kept the paper)
She really shouldn't have to resort to this. It seems petty I know but...
Having "a book packed with footnotes" really doesn't mean anything if the footnotes are wrong or you have to go through 24 hoops to make the connection with what you are saying and a way-out random quote.
(I really got hammered on by the libs when they referred to one of the her "slanders" about Phyllis Schlaffly (sp?)and her footnote was a 1984 Muppet movie review.)
How can I argue with that?
Ann Coulter's book is a polemic. It makes no pretense of objectivity. It is a jeremiad, a broadside, a diatribe. Ask your mom if you can borrow her dictionary and look up those words, then you'll have a clue.
And in the end, most of her allegations are true. Bill CLinton DID commit crimes, sell out his base, bomb foreigners, rape women, and folks like YOU are still carrying his water! And it seems fair for Ann to point out that Linda Tripp's enemies villified her as physically repugnant, apparently oblivious to the message Bella Abzug's mirror was sending, and noting that Maxine Waters, Betty Friedan, Janet Reno, Madeline Albright, and Donna Shalala weren't on Victoria's Secret's short list.
