Just a quick question here.

Why make a post telling us you wont make a post about your opinion?

And by the way you word things, its like you want an argument. Like you thrive on conflict or something.

I agree with Typhoid on this. Strangler, if all you are going to do is sit around and not comment on politics, thats fine. I have no problem with people who don't feel like commenting for whatever reason. I find it irritating, however, when someone acts like they are a level above all us "common ignorant folk" and must mention that we are idiots and don't deserve to have you say something about the subject everytime something like this comes up.

So, don't make prodding comments like that, please.

The county I live in (Arlington) is largely made up of democrats...

I was at work (Ben and Jerry's) the night of the second debate... We listened to it over the radio (not a very busy night), and the few customers we had in from the hour the debate was on before we closed were all loudmouthed republicans...

One used his "outside voice" to impress his friends with his knowledge (opinions) on everything Kerry said ever, shooting down his points before he'd even made them...

Another, on his way to the bathroom, decided to stop halfway through the door to stop and lecture us "impressionable" young folk on who we should vote for...

My uncle and Aunt are republican, and they believe Bush blew Kerry away during the first debate... They (along with my republican grandpa) believe it's their job to pester my democratic dad (if you didn't know, they're all from the same side of the family) about how he's voting for the wrong side, is stupid for voting democratic, is a disgrace (you may think I'm exagerating, I'm not) etc etc every time politics is brought up in the slightest way...

This may seem irrelavant to the topic of The Strangler's comments... But.......

Well what I'm trying to do here is counter his you guys are stupid I'm better than you attitude with a jump to conclusions all republicans are loudmouth asshole comment...

and Shawn Hannity would make a good nazi...

Hmm it's sad when people fight about politics.

I find the claim rather funny, but I find most things in politics funny, so eh.

Anyhow, on the issue about no note-taking. You were allowed to take notes, but you were not allowed to bring anything to the debate podlum with you. Some people accused Kerry of bringing note-cards and a pen to the debate, I think there is a video of him pulling something out of his pocket, could of been a pen, could of been his reading glass, but it's just as out there as this debate.

1. Then why did he do so poorly?

It takes time to look up information and then rely it back, and there could of been break-up and all this other stuff, which would probably have explained it.

1) When I see a thread based on such utter stupidity, I have to say SOMETHING.

2) As for "common ignorant folk"... if you give this idiotic theory any credence at all, you ARE "common ignorant folk".

3) I'll make comments when and wherever I please. It's called free speech. Look into it.

With that, I bid you all "Good Day".

Ok now THAT's offensive.

It's not offensive, it's the truth.

That was funny. Really funny.

Who the hell cares whether he was wearing a wire or not? Does everyone have to comment and argue about every little god damn politic-related thing? It's just trivial annoying crap. There are much more important things that you could be arguing about, like who would win in a frankenstein vs. dracula fight to the death. Personally I think dracula would clean up, but then again the frankenstein monster is crazy strong. Discuss.

It can be both.

So then calling a black guy a "nigger" to his face isn't offensive then?

I see.

Your logic evades even me.
