Have your own contributions been any different, BoberFett?

It has been years since there was sincere, respectful debate in this forum. I troll this forum for kicks. At least I'm up front about it. You and the rest of the scumbags around here, right and left, pretend to be some brand of morally superior political beast instead of the trolls you are.

Every now and then they occur. Like relics to be treasured and protected.

No self-flattery. Wisdom is acquired through time, experience, and suffering. People who have heard clever arguments for ultimately bad ends don't need to do any rigorous intellectual exercise to know that it's the same turd repackaged. I'd wager that's why Soviet expats tend to lean right.

And it's amusing to see you react this way, considering my source is the same guy who you gleefully quoted as proving that liberals are smarter than conservatives.

http://www.psychologytoday.com/blog...re-more-intelligent-conservatives-why-are-lib

In the first place I do not believe that liberals are more intelligent that conservatives. I believe that conservatives are bigots who use their intelligence to rationalize their bigotry. And every bigot in the world thinks his bigotry is common sense. Also, I never think. I know everything instantly just as conservatives do, but the difference is that I have experienced the pain they will not face and so my gut reactions are not blinded by unconscious motivations. There is this little matter of self knowledge you don't seem to understand. Real common sense, by the way is very uncommon.

The problem, of course, is that when we communicate, we are not speaking the same language. Our words though the same, mean different things. You can't see in the dark. I know something about the dark, having gone there against mountains of ego armor seeking to keep me out. I told you that to seek knowledge is to pay with everything you were taught to believe, all your greatest treasures. It really helps, I assure you, to know as I know how much of a piece of shit I feel I am. It's hard to be a piece of shit and think you have much value. This, by the way, is wisdom.

Aren't you pretending to be morally superior by saying you're at least up front about something. How sincere can you be if you allow other people to knock you off your game? If you want sincerity be sincere. I think the fact is that you, like many others here, are very angry. That's OK if you treat it as something you wish you could get past and not as a permanent virtue.

The part you forget is that this "proof" you mention is actuall "opinon used as fact". Your post above is a perfect example of this. You are quite right about the childish part.

Actually this forum is a great example proving the concept that conservatives will continue to believe a wrong thing once it's been proven wrong. The best example is the multiple voter id threads where time and again it has been proven that the laws overwhelmingly disenfranchise more than prevent fraud, and still the cons don't accept it. Then again, I don't believe a single conservative on this board actually believes voter fraud a problem, they want the disenfranchisement because they'd gladly have their side win even at the expense of the American system being destroyed.

I'm not pretending to be anything, merely claiming to be honest. I'll let you put your own value judgment on it, if you believe honesty to be morally superior then so be it.

Of course in your own personal quest to appear morally superior, if you did consider honesty a virtue I'd think you'd put more effort into appearing honest, rather than the lying, hateful scumbag you are.

Oh look, just now another moonbeam shot out of my ass...

So a conservative with a brain defect is still just as intelligent as a liberal? I just want to make sure I understand you.

Don't forget, he also thinks the only people who are bigots are those whose creeds, beliefs, and opinions he is utterly intolerant of. He claims he is not a bigot for being utterly intolerant of their different creeds, beliefs, or opinions.

You mean we won't accept your lie that voter fraud does not happen. Again, you are saying one thing and pretending it proves a different thing. The libs on this forum love to do this and then cry a river of anguish when called out on it.

Later on you pretend the same thing. Watching you guys do this is like watching a retarded kid hit his face against a door over and over trying to push it open when it says pull.

I now return you to hitting your face against a door.

I could do what I've done in most of the voter id threads and provide you with link after link after link with different studies and different sources and different estimates. All of which show I'm right. But you ignored them then and you'll ignore them now because you refuse to admit when you are wrong. Then again if you admitted when you're wrong you'd have an almost double post count as you're almost always wrong and in fact might be the most consistently wrong person on this forum. The conservative voter id laws are like the episode of the Simpsons when one bear wanders into town and they create a bear patrol to counter it and claim how great it's doing and how it's keeping the bears away. The difference is that these id laws remove more rights than they protect, and that's an undeniable fact (you'll deny it, so we'll say undeniable to someone who isn't brain dead).

Also, in today's world it's usually considered offensive to refer to a developmentally disabled person as "retarded".

I won't be able to remember what I have never said. This is all made up by you.

Golly, I never noticed that. I was just too in awe of his power to return you to hitting yourself in the face. He has just some amazing control over the situation here. Maybe he can walk on water. Of course he might just be under the spell of some delusional thinking, some hidden sense of irrelevance he's trying compensating for.

Hum, let me see. I now return him to his fantasies.

Interestingly, there are but two steps in the proggie play book.
1. Denounce conservatives as mentally defective.
2. Demand that conservatives support them and subsidize their housing, health care, child care, education, Internet access . . .
[ pointless prattle deleted ]
Interesting position. Yet as pointed out to you many times, point #2 is wrong. It is the blue states that subsidize the red states. In spite of having this information, however, you still cling to #2 as accurate. This seems to offer a great example in support of point #1.

You still believe the red state/blue state lie?

You'd expect that such overwhelmingly superior creatures could do SOMETHING for themselves. Anything at all. Even a blind hog finds the occasional acorn. But alas, the lonely bitter proggie is stuck in eternal debt to those whom he despises, unable to lift a hand in his own behalf, condemned to come hat in hand to sponge off of those he considers beneath him in every conceivable way as his sense of entitlement (due to being born in the image of the G-d he rejects as also beneath him) wars with his conflicting feelings of disgust and superiority.

Proggies are the eternal ungrateful children, creatures built of envy and hate, despising themselves to a degree that only by shrilly shrieking accusations at conservatives, their presumptive adults for whom everything is easy, can they get a moment's inner peace. Sad. Sad and amusing.

Proggies do have one thing going for them however. Google. By the miracle of Google, blessed be Its name, proggies can post a piece of utter garbage (hereafter known as typical proggie thinking feeling) knowing that other proggies can point to its putrescence and proclaim its divinity as the Child of Google, sent to save their miserable souls in the magical circle jerk of proggie life. Also it gives them something to do whilst waiting for their checks to arrive.

You do realize that these are the same people who spent years saying how stupid George Bush was... and then crying about how he managed to trick them :D
