Trying to refrain from ad hominems, given Oliver’s recent request/demand, but you’re talking about what people have or haven’t done so addressing what you do seems fair. And I have never seen anyone so insistent that others are wrong for doing exactly what they are doing themselves while refusing to apply the same standard to themselves.

I could continue, but you’ve made it painfully clear, despite any claims you make to the contrary, that you in fact do not “give a shit about other viewpoints”.

327 comments so far. Must be a record. Certainly is more than enough. And I’ve grown tired of the game. I leave it to Dennis to claim he’s accomplished or won something.

Classic.

Wow. In the past two days we’ve seen a textbook “Michael Moore is fat” defense and now a perfectly executed “Jonah Goldberg.” Although I’m not sure if Goldberg gets royalties for using his patented, pathetic defense. Someone should look into that.

Classic.

Wanna have some fun, Sean. Hit Control F or whatever method you use to find a word on a page and search for the word ‘Fuck’. Twice Duros said FU to me on just this thread alone. But count how many times someone used that word on me. Don’t care, doesn’t bother me, but it’s interesting to note in that Duros seems to thing there’s only one culprit here.

No, what Oliver said, and pretty clearly, was simply don’t give it. He didn’t say it was okay as long as the other guy did it first.

Noted without comment.

Your comment is also noted without comment.

Noted without comment.

Like Oliver said, you don’t want it, don’t give it. Or words to that effect. I think in general he’s not a fan of stalking, either, but you might want to email him for clarification on that.

Projectomundo. Indeed.

Weigel needs to hit the gym and do the Belly-Off Diet, along with an appointment with his dermatologist. Talk about a doughy pantload.

You belittle, disparage and marginalize.

Return fire, Duros. And a quick look in the mirror along with a bit of soul searching wouldn’t hurt you one bit, either.

But for the most part, you don’t. You belittle, disparage and marginalize.

Yes.

Are the questions gonna get harder? Do weight and appearance count?

That was then.

Yes.

One wonders if the traditional media will ask Republicans what they think of the Obama-Hitler-Nazi comparisons that are becoming so popular at GOP gatherings:

At the How To Take Back America Conference last weekend, conservative speaker Kitty Werthmann led a workshop called “How to recognize living under Nazis & Communists …”

During her session, Werthmann went through a litany of examples of how President Obama is like Adolf Hitler. She noted that Hitler, who acted “like an American politician,” was “elected in a 100% Christian nation.” Although she failed to once mention Antisemitism or militarism, Werthmann explained how universal healthcare, an Equal Rights Amendment, and increased taxes were telltale signs of Nazism. Werthmann also warned the audience:

If we had our guns, we would have fought a bloody battle. So, keep your guns, and buy more guns, and buy ammunition. [...] Take back America. Don’t let them take the country into Socialism. And I refer again, Hitler’s party was National Socialism. [...] And that’s what we are having here right now, which is bordering on Marxism.

… because there were quite a number of elected Republican officials who attended the conference who could be questioned about it — as long as the media is careful not to imply that racism might be a factor, of course.

I wonder if the person who wrote that is not as attractive as, say, a Fox News talking head.

More confirmation:

From John L. Perry’s September 29 Newsmax column:

There is a remote, although gaining, possibility America’s military will intervene as a last resort to resolve the “Obama problem.” Don’t dismiss it as unrealistic.

America isn’t the Third World. If a military coup does occur here it will be civilized. That it has never happened doesn’t mean it wont. Describing what may be afoot is not to advocate it.

[...]

Will the day come when patriotic general and flag officers sit down with the president, or with those who control him, and work out the national equivalent of a “family intervention,” with some form of limited, shared responsibility?

Imagine a bloodless coup to restore and defend the Constitution through an interim administration that would do the serious business of governing and defending the nation. Skilled, military-trained, nation-builders would replace accountability-challenged, radical-left commissars. Having bonded with his twin teleprompters, the president would be detailed for ceremonial speech-making.

Military intervention is what Obama’s exponentially accelerating agenda for “fundamental change” toward a Marxist state is inviting upon America. A coup is not an ideal option, but Obama’s radical ideal is not acceptable or reversible.

Unthinkable? Then think up an alternative, non-violent solution to the Obama problem. Just don’t shrug and say, “We can always worry about that later.”

In the 2008 election, that was the wistful, self-indulgent, indifferent reliance on abnegation of personal responsibility that has sunk the nation into this morass.

I wonder if I should remark on Mr. Perry’s weight or appearance.

Translation: I only look at things that support my view and will refuse to look at things that don’t.

Gosh, you’re becoming more Frank-like by the hour.

Oh, Good Lord, Sean, lighten up, willya. I put a smiley face thingy on at the end of that but it didn’t take.

And seriously, work on that obsession thing you got going for Frank. It’s disturbing and creepy.
