#3 This was posted yesterday. Please go back to your Howard Dean website and leave the adults alone, ok? (This helpful hint brought to your ignorant ass from a Democrat tired of you morons making us all look stupid.)

#4 The Bush White House always puts their political interests over the public good. Now, they're even intentionally endangering our national security to further their cover-ups. Richard Nixon's Watergate Gang never dreamed of this fundamental and monumental corruption.

As the public learns more about Bush's lies on Iraq, his failures and cover-ups about 9/11, and the economy languishes in neutral for almost everyone, Bush will lose more support. Especially if the media may start doing their job. If the media wake up and report the news, Americans may learn more about how Bush and his bunglers undermined our national security before and after 9-11 with the Kean Commission and investigations into Leakergate

While we shouldn't feed trolls, we may certainly spank them. OS, you're a fool. The media leans liberal. ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN are liberal leaning, Fox is not. The New York Times, LA Times, San Francisco Examiner, Washington Post, Boston Globe -- all liberal leaning. Ask the media to do their jobs? They're doing them.

You don't like what they report? Please re-enter reality and take another look.

#11 steve - first, youve got to remember that the radicals dont like the liberal media. Radicals dont really like libs,or moderate social dems, etc as a general rule. Im not going to go into it here, you're gonna havta trust me. Now the above post cleverly avoids anything that is explicity radical - even implying that positions of earlier presidents were good - but i would say that i nonetheless associate this degree and nature of vitriol with radicals - though i will admit that a large number of frustrated liberals have adopted such rhetoric (yadda, yadda, civil culture, yadda yadda, florida, yadda yadda lewinsky, yadda yadda Bork, yadda yadda)


I will also not respond the numerous points in the original post, a few of which are good (no im not even going to point out which) among many that are easily refuted, some of which are vile, etc.

My main point is this - it is NOT possible to have a meaningful discussion, in a forum such as this, of something that makes 30 or 40 points. Period. Radical, liberal, conservative, moderate, whatever. You can make one point, maybe two or three (though thats pushing it) once you make so many no one can coherently respond, or follow a discussion. Any laundry list like this should be considered a troll REGARDLESS of its ideological origin. Since its purpose, BY NATURE OF ITS FORM, NOT CONTENT is to provoke contention, rather than discussion and analysis.

#12 I've never been a huge W. fan, but heck, none of the Dem's running would get my vote. As an independent, there is some horrible b.s. in that post:

"Became president after losing the popular vote by over 500,000 votes" - read your laws moron, it's the electoral vote that counts.

"Attacked and took over two countries." - The 51st & 52nd States? Bwhahaha.

"First president in decades to execute a federal prisoner." - and the problem is??

"First president in US history to enter office with a criminal record." - besides Clinton?

I could go on and on, but y'all get the picture. Kelley, please put down the hash pipe, the nitrous balloon, turn off the "dead" record, shave your arm-pits, and come back down to earth baby. Don't feel bad though, you're still gonna get four more years of G.W. ....bwhahaha.

#13 Condi has a freighter named after her? Cool!

Should be a Carrier :)

#14 Crazy:

Personally, I think the USS Condoleeza Rice, PhD should be the fifth Iowa-class battleship, but then I always was a mite old-fashioned. That said, a carrier would work.

#16 this is an e-mail that is making it's way around the net. I got a copy of it.

The first part is actually kind of funny. But I actualy felt pity, instead of annoyance when I realized they are still so desperately clinging to the "selected/not elected" fantasy.

Hey trolls...did you hear that flushing sound after Pelosi and Daschel spoke last night? That was the sound of any remaining dignity your party had left, flushing down the john. Youre party's dead, done, finished. You aren't trolls, you are dinosaurs.

And that prisoner would be... Tim McVeigh!

Anyone really wanna stand up for that piece of scum's life?

#23 Tancred, I think it was some Mike Hersh guy. He left the area pretty quickly and with good reason. I think his post have been victimized ala the prison rape scene in Shawshank Redemption. It got pretty ugly - like an intellectual version of a piranah feeding frenzy. Maybe his buddies are running amok on other threads. Hersh might have been the old week bleeding cow that the gouchos drive in up river as a diversion.

#24 Three comments: (1) "Produced a Hollywood slasher B movie" You can't drop a load like that without providing the name of the film. Come on. (2) A Simpson's episode had the USS Walter Mondale, it was a laundry ship if I remember correctly. (3) It's amazing all of the things a President has to do when the previous administration avoids all the big decisions.

#27 Obviously, Kelly and Mike deserve the highest praise and respect for their courage in publicly exposing this evil dictator.
If it is possible, we should take up a collection for their legal defense. Those of us willing to take the risk should gather at the gates of the nearest Federal concentration camp facility to protest their disappearance and detention in the new Bushitler/AshKKKroft Gulag, and to demand the return of Constitutional rights that have been repealed under the evil Patriot Act that creates such an oppressive and chilly atmosphere for free speech. The memory of the martyred Dixie Chicks demands no less.

What? They're still running around loose?
What the hell kind of dictatorship is this?
There's something wrong with this picture.

#28 AC. Right, after all they should be mouldering in some hidden mass grave (or being the 'guest of honor' at a rape-room celebration) somewhere instead of spouting off without fear of retaliation.

#30 Hey Fred, if this is the kinda crap that results from a Deaniac loss in Iowa, what happens next week after NH?

#31 What Deaniacs don't get is the right WANTS Dean to win the democratic nomination. Makes Dubya's job of getting re-elected all the easier. but alas, we have shot our mouths off so much that the democrats are on to us.

Win-win, eh?
