David Brooks and his fellow travelers.

You’re a new user whose stated goal is to anger people. The day when YogSothoth replies to you may be the most important day of your life, but for me, it was a Monday. This will be my only reply to you.

Fuck! It’s Monday? Well, shit…

Besides supporting lower taxes, I don’t agree with anything in the GOP platform, indeed you would agree to much more than I do.

Bizarre statement. “My people” are a tiny, insignificant minority.

I favor a Clinton victory.

I was corrected in that thread: Taxes are legal extortion that are necessary for civilization.

In other words, I was right without the modifiers.

No it’s much easier than that.

No he loves Brennan, who supported torture.

A guy can’t complain? Admit it, this one was just filler.

Of course your silence on the matter is as full of as much potential wit and wisdom as unhewn marble of great statue. In other words put up or shut the fuck up, this is growing quite trite.

I am quite comfortable in saying that I am much farther than you from Trump on every political question. Maybe you should look around at your fellow authoritarians for what is really making you upset. Namely, democracy.

No. Statists of all stripes are the problem.

Vote Johnson!

Who’s next?

I disagree with Yog way more than I agree with him/her, but I’d take 10 Yogs over one alienshitshow any day!

Hi-five.

How do you find the time to mirror my one-liners while serving as bag-man for the Clinton Foundation?

They were, and American troops were injured by them.

That, of course, is one of the most dishonest “reports” ever submitted on the topic and its very nature precludes any informed or intelligent person from ever paying attention to anything that the authors and publishers have written or ever will write.

Hussein clearly had gas weapons when he made war on Iran and his own people. The claim of the Bush administration was that he still maintained a huge stockpile of such weapons that he could (and probably intended to) use against the U.S. or his own neighbors.

The reality is that his military was so inept that they did not even keep track of the weapons that they had available and there have been a number of occasions when people have stumbled into lost caches. Those weapons are the equivalent of the numerous warheads from WWI and WWII that are discovered each year in France, Italy, Germany, and Japan. (There is even a report of a 22,000 lb. “Grand Slam” bomb being used as the gate decoration to an airfield in the UK without being deactivated. Talk about failing to control one’s munitions!) Regarding them as part of a supply of weapons that Hussein "possessed,’ is simply a lie promoted by the silliest of pro-Iraq Invasion supporters. For that matter, in terms of Weapons of mass Destruction, there are still nine (or eight depending on how well one trusts the USAF) nuclear weapons that the U.S. has lost and never found.

I can never tell which of your posts are jokes and which you think are serious. They all turn out rather tragic.

I’d take 10 of the REAL Yog-Sothoth over this guy.

Well as a joke, it wasn’t too bad. Inane and utterly inapplicable to Ravenman, but it got a laugh out of me. Outside of that one, I’ll give Will a 5/10 for his random insults in this thread. We’ve seen a lot worse on this board.

WillFarnaby. Not just another alienshitshow.
ETA: We really should start piling on David Brooks around now. It would bring balance to this thread.

No leave Brooks alone, it’s clearly, to the American Statist, a much bigger crime to be against all avoidable wars than to support them.

I should have known a board populated by Bernie Sanders supporters would value the chest-thumping health of the American state over the lives of evil foreigners who may Take Our Jobs!

So being stuck between Hillary and Trump, whats the way to go now? I only ask, because I don’t know how someone from your unique political point stands.

As the bagman for the Clinton Foundation, I’m offended.

Some favor Trump so he will bring the state crashing down. I prefer Clinton because she is weak and uninspiring. She lacks the ability to get the masses riled up to try some grand scheme. I do worry about her policy with Russia, however. What calmed my nerves a bit about that was finding out she was actually a Putin crony despite her tough rhetoric.

Also, I do not want the next economic crisis to be blamed on anything other than interventionist economics, so Clinton it is. Trump is too convenient a scapegoat, like Bush II.

Bush was a feckless good ol’ boy until 9/11, when he discovered that he was a Leader of Men. Alas!

Oh, Lordy Sweet Jesus.

I feel very worried to put in with Hillary, because I think she is a horrible person and that she is so dishonest. I think she will change immediately as she makes it into the white house. I do not think Trump is the best bet either, but I think he will be less of a hazard to my basic rights. Also, he is an idiot now and he will be an idiot if he made it in, so I don’t think he would be as dangerous. I feel very fucked by my choices. Thank you for your input, because I am still very undecided. :smack:

How many American troops were injured/killed by Iraqi WMD, in comparison to being electrocuted in a Haliburton-installed shower?
