…like the NYT ?
In this piece by their Public Editor there is a defense that they did mention Obama’s failure to embrace Erskine-Bowles in an article on February 27.
I wonder if that was the only time… its not like debt and budget defecits are rarely in the news.
So tell me, mighty OP: Do you do anything else with your SDMB time other than cast about for sticks with which to beat President Obama?
Psssssssst – your obsession is showing…
Seriously, dude, there are 7 months until November. You need to pace yourself.
Dammit, quit spamming the board with your stupid Obama obsession! And put threads in the right forums. Sheesh!
OP, what, have, you, got, against, commas?
I’ll admit, the frequency of additions to my shrine has gone down recently. Also, last night I forgot to bless and thank Obama for my dinner. I tried to make up for it by going twice as long in my pre-bedtime ritual of staring at a “Hope” poster and crying with reverence, but I’m not sure if it was enough to please The One.
Well, since the Center for Media and Public Affairs (CMPA) at George Mason University found bias in 2008 presidential coverage in favor of McCain, I can honestly say that I no longer have McCain fever.
Seriously, what is with the dots? What are you trying to convey with them? Is it Morse Code?
Sorry to double post, but I just found this online
So …to…be…continued…!
Posting so that this thread will be next to “I just got out pee-storied”.
Yep… do you know how to research that?
I am having a hard time with that…especially since all I have to go on in GQ is the precise term “political jab” .
I do seem to stand out don’t I… for multiple reasons.
And here comes the martyrdom…
Nope, that pony only knows One trick. I counted. 
I never had any “warm glow”. My reaction was more “after 8 years of Bush, the best we can get is this?!” So much for the “pendulum swinging the other way” like I’ve been told for most of my life; if a utter disaster like Bush can’t get anyone better into office than a guy who is politically basically Republican-lite, then America isn’t going to stop sliding to the Right short of fascism or theocracy. Obama is just a pause until the next right winger gets into office; one who’ll be even farther to the Right than Bush, and who will be handed even more power. In ten years or so I expect we’ll be talking about the good old days when we thought the Tea Party was extreme.
Abuse of ellipsis notation among them. (Three dots. Not four, not more. Three.)
But ellipses are often used to indicate that…thought has gone into a response, that there is some…important meaning in what is written there. Without an…abundance of ellipses, one cannot have true…profundity.
Years ago, I Pitted one of my coworkers who always responded to emailed questions with answers that always ended in ellipses. Drove me batty, it did. I always found myself waiting to see if he’d ever finish his sentences.
I know a few people in addition to the OP who do this, which to me is the text equivalent of aimless muttering: “hmm, I can still taste that donut I had an hour ago…my ankle itches…wonder what’s on TV tonight…” I’ve politely asked each of those people what they are trying to indicate with this non-standard punctuation, and no one has ever answered. What’s up with that? It’s not a rude question, it’s genuine curiosity.
So, OP, I’m asking, why do you do this?
Moving from IMHO to MPSIMS.
One reason only. Over and over. Give it a rest. Try on a new schtick, it’s getting stale!
