It`s even clearer the OP cannot talk about this issue without using other peoples words!!

Wow, with 11,066 posted mostly unoriginal rants in this forum you have nothing better to do than attack a newbie to P&N?

P&N plays by different, and much harsher, rules than any other forum, doncha know. We are tough. We are proud. We are, we are, we are P&N - Hear my roar!, or meow. (depends on the P&Ner.)

Maybe instead of posting your own anger at the world all the time and copying the creative work of people like me (see your above post) you might consider doing the good deed and reaching a helping hand out to the guy, even if you don't like what he is posting.

Nobody needs to be greeted like this guy was in starting this thread.

OK. Rant off. Got to get to my first meeting of the day!

Have a good one, ladies! :heart:

We? You do nothing but incessentantly plaster the forums with op-ed's and biased pieces of literature.

A good P&N poster has certain traits, for example:

They are able to input information, rationalize, perform assessments, apply discussion specific filters, and output an original product (that in many cases is a perspective based on knowledge, rationality, and the information from the very first step).

Something that for all your crying of being persecuted I have not seen you perform once in your entire stay here at P&N.

Freedom of speech as long as you agree with me, anything else is Un-american :laugh:

If this is really such a big concern for you, how about you lead by example and address the story? Get out of your comfort zone and try something different instead of falling back to your usual tired attacks.

In fairness, of course, there's really not much of a story to address. What the OP proves is that an Obama supporter attended an Obama appearance. I'm shocked, shocked I tell you! (Here's a hint: you'll find lots of Steelers fans at a Steelers game too. It's truly a world gone mad!) The implication that she and her daughter are plants is unfounded -- more likely they were simply in the right place at the right time -- though it wouldn't be at all surprising if the question itself was a plant. I find this pretty benign for national politics, but I agree it shows a lack of integrity if the administration actually did claim that all questions were chosen randomly.

Finally, as always, I have to laugh at all this feigned outrage from people who just a year or two ago were high-fiving each other over Bushco's invitation-only, fully choreographed "public" appearances. Gentlemen, your hypocrisy is showing ... again. Meh, wear it well.

Really? ALL of them? You probably just meant MOST of them, right?

Wait, that's wrong too since there have been at most a handful of people mentioning anything about limits or bans (I've only noticed a couple personally, but I'll concede I could have missed some.)

The real issues with PJ are that he regularly (re)posts his own threads on already active topics, that his "commentary" in some cases is missing or irrelevant to the topic presented and is often purely self-indulgent rambling (leading to "blog" comments like the one above), and that it seems apparent he has posted here with other handles. From my perspective, that's up to the mods to curb or indulge as they see fit -- I still get my money's worth here -- but it shouldn't be surprising that some on the "left" would speak up given the furor certain "righties" raise when they perceive it working the other way around. What goes around comes around, so to speak.

Then you need to poke holes in your blinders. Start with pinholes, don't want to overwhelm you right off the bat. ;)

Yep, see that from both sides. Both are wrong.

You're getting flack because you've simply repeated an opinion without any commentary of your own...

So, what would you like to debate?

debate what? it is a fyi thread - the right is having its balls busted for so-called plants at local town halls, so we can easily see so is the left to highest level. especially when obama rants about the plants

didn't know i had to bring a debate ???

O MY GOD!! Obama supporters go to these Town Hall meetings and ask questions! Let's go backto the Bush ways of screening participants, Rove approved questions, and sending protestors to "FREE SPEECH ZONES".

There are so many roll reversals and so many hypocrisies here that one cannot begin to count them all. ALL are part of the problem, including Your Highness ;)

No doubt.

Speaking of which, you complained about people NOT addressing the OP, I then addressed the OP, and you then ... ? Oh yes, you ignored my comments, have yet to address the OP yourself, and instead added yet another post having nothing to do with the OP. Seems to me you've ceded any grounds for complaining about others.

I'm entitled to call out trolls for what they are without being required to comment on the OP myself. Frankly, I don't have an opinion on the OP. Perhaps you should ask the mods to sticky a "Bowfinger's Rules" thread so we can all be sure to stay on top of your own personalized forum guidelines, though :laugh: .

Obama: "I mean, if you think about it, UPS and FedEx are doing just fine, right? No, they are. It's the post office that's always having problems."

Talk about a Bushism. So, he's trying to win support for a government controlled program and tries to use the analogy of the USPS vs UPS? bwahahahahaaha, what a moron.

LOL! So that's why senseamp, harvey, eskimopy, et. all cling to that analogy. It comes straight from the liberal moonbat handbook.

This - plus the OP ran away...

/good job, bob...

ran away, please, i had to go do some stuff quickly. opinion is what it says - the right is having its balls busted for so-called plants at local town halls, so we can easily see so is the left to highest level. especiall when obama rants about the plants

When you disrespect the Messiah... you face the wrath of the P&N minions.

As it was written...

So say we all.

I took the dmcowen674 thread posting internet course over the weekend. Good deal for only $4.99.

Why is it that the rightwingers are the only ones that call Obama the messiah? Wasn't it their guy who was so religion-crazy that he thought Iraq must be invaded to thwart Gog and Magog, the Bible?s satanic agents of the Apocalypse?

That's a hilarious stretch, and if you can't see the difference between a staged question and dozens of people specifically preventing civilized discussion over health care then you're a bad person.

Some people have no sense of irony.

They are just discrediting themselves as a talk radio wingnut, let them out themselves as fools to average people as their party becomes more and more a regional extremist mess swirling down the bowl anyhow.
They would not understand anyhow, these folks have had a little propaganda world fed on outrage set up for them on talk radio and fox day after day, it would break their hearts coming back into the real world.

As long as we're talking about being a bad person, do you still advocate rape as an acceptable punishment?

Hey Steeplerot, you should go join the Venezuelan army. I hear they're preparing for a holy war and they could use more mindless soldiers.

Oh yeah, because your ideology is so foolish and discredited not even a backward south american country would try it.
Keep crying and gnashing your teeth from the front line basements my libertopian comrades.
