You're proving me right. Thank you. Keep it up! :thumbsup:

Ooooh, the thumbs up. Can I get a cookie?

The only thing I'm out to prove is that Democrats are just as vile and reprehensible as Republicans.

Even a troll like you should be able to spot the difference between some idiots using cookies in place of actual material, and a thumbs up used to illustrate the words preceeding it. Then again, judging by your previous posts, perhaps I'm expecting too much.

Nice backpeddle. Keep in mind you haven't proven a damn thing, other than you're somewhat new here.
What happened to you proclaiming that libs used cookies as much as neocons? What happened to me being a 'hypocritical partisan'? That's right, you can't back up sh!t. Just offer up a neutral, seemingly impartial quip and run away little boy.

Like I said, SAD.

Stupid is stupid regardless of which politial viewpoint you hold. A dumb conservative is still dumb, a smart liberal is still smart. Why are we arguing about this? So you can somehow use the intelligence of your political party to bolster your own? No offense, but even if your party is composed of super geniuses, YOU are still an obnoxious moron.

Note: Not targetting at anybody specific, just those conservatives who think it makes their opinion more valid because "everybody knows conservatives are smarter" or liberals who think "liberals are smarter, so therefore I'm smarter than conservatives". Both groups are oh so very annoying.

It means your opinion is so stupid it's not worth arguing against, so here's a cookie instead of a reply. OR it could mean that the poster can't come up with a good reply, either because they just aren't able or they don't have the time to refute a broad claim.

Damn, and I thought it was the liberal version of the white flag ;)

Does anybody else find it ironic the enlightened liberals spent the majority of this thread arguing about a cookie graphic on a webpage?

Thanks for backing up the original posters claim :)

Oh look, it's Mr. Observant here to chime in. To say an equal amount is coming from both sides is just proving what a noob you are. Two or three resident neocons crank out more cookies than the sum of all liberal posters here in this forum. I don't condone any libs using them as cop outs either. Save your naive labels for someone who gives a damn.

Just picking a couple recent threads...

The only cookie in this thread is from Darkhawk

Here's one where the only cookie is from Umbrella

Here's one from Bowfinger and Umbrella

So thre's three recent threads with cookies only coming from liberals. Should I keep looking?

Want to apologize now or don't you mind looking like a fool?


Edit: Here's one from CycloWizard and Umbrella, so they cancel each other out.

sadly all i see here is "Hurray for our side" on both sides. if that is the only unifying thing left in america, then we are in serious trouble.

I find it interesting that this can start with O'Reilly insulting Daily News watchers (called them 'stoned slackers'... that SO does not describe my husband and me) and then Comedy Central, just for clarification, did a bit of research to find out who their audience REALLY is.

And ironically, the results of those findings causes more name calling. I think that means O'Reilly is winning. :shocked:

Can't be to shocked that viewer that watch the Daily Show are better informed. The show is total unbiased.

well, i dont believe thats true. they tend to make more jokes at bush's expense. but as ive said, thats how comedy works. those at the top should be taking all the shots. they are slanted toward what will be the funniest and, although ive seen a number of great kerry lines, the vast majority of jokes go toward the party that holds all the power.
maybe im contradicting myself...but its still a great damn show.

Bill O'Reilly makes moronic statements time to time. The Daily Show is one of the funniest and informative shows on tv, i love it .... wish I had time to watch it each day but i dont.

Fox News and Bill O'Reilly shame on you

uhhhh no, conservatives can be open minded too but some of them dont support gay marriage and removal of religious symbols etc ... that does not make them less open minded.

From what I can tell one site quoted O'reilly as saying that and a bunch of other sites that mention it all quote that site, as evidenced by the use of the exact lines,
f your government harbors these two deserter [sic]
Yet no evidence especially video or audio clip that he actually said it. No other sites quote O'reilly as saying that they just copy the text from the first site. This is sort of like one news agency reporting a story and then all other news agencies reporting the same story based on what they heard the first say. What ends up happening is usually the first story was wrong and so every agency reports false information. I don't believe it at all to be honest.

Well if they were open minded they wouldn't have to support it, just not oppose it.

Your statement reveals your intellect.

It also seems to qualify him for conservative status, at least according to his own definition.
