Marching orders? I thought it was talking points. Oh, well…
I had democratic, and it seemed wrong. It still does, but I don’t know why. Maybe because it sounds like a process of thuggery. I see why you suggest democratic, but I’m still not sure which is right. Or if democrat is wrong. Anyone?
I thought Cheney had a law passed a few years ago so that legally you can kick them???
If you can’t figure it out for yourself, I guess you might as well just cut and paste it from your morning memos-by this time, it’s all we really expect from you.
:dubious: But somehow ya missed that whole common noun/proper noun thing?
^ I have a rational rationale for believing this … I think.
CMC fnord!
Doug Niedermeyer? Is that you? Man, we heard you got fragged…
I can’tfind a video in that link. A litle help?
I didn’t see anything happen there, either, except the video highlighted that a man was holding a baton.
That video isn’t showing me anyone falling or anything. It does show a man seeming to run interference against another man.
P.S. OP Democrat is a noun; Democratic is an adjective. Therefore, it would be correct grammar to speak of a “Democratic thug,” or a “thuggish Democrat.”
I mean, if it’s important to you to point it out every time you see a thug who is a Democrat.
It’s a partisan hackjob. You don’t think for yourself. You spit out what others tell you and call it news. You are a drone. A particularly unimaginative and barely functional one.
You are specifically lying by not being man enough to admit that you were posting a one dimensional partisan rant with the word “debate” lightly scrawled across the top in pencil.
Not at all. You have been shown to be subnormal and that you lack what most would consider to be a common ability to parse reality. You live in a fantasy world of partisanship because the real world scares you too much. Like I say, your fear (and homophobia) are what define you. Keep hiding under the kitchen table moron.
Is that what the *special *teachers would tell you while you kept scrawling “cArTEr iS a fUckInG liBeRaL” over and over on your SATs? 
What it is about is you holding quite consiverative views and then being utterly unable to justify them. You don’t debate. You restate. Your version of winning a debate is posting the same thing ten thousand times. Like I say, you’re a stupid fuck.
I call people morons when they can’t substantiate their claims. Like you. And on top of that, you claim victory while stumbling around with a bloody nose. You’re honestly pathetic.
Well the Democrat thing is up there. Not to mention you didn’t bother to check your facts before creating a thread denouncing “Democrat Thugs” and trying to paint a picture of a larger democratic web of evil stiff-armers.
You are literally mentally deficient. And you shouldn’t be posting on a site about reducing ignorance. You simply don’t belong here. You’re a creature that breathes and excretes ignorance.
Ouch. THAT is a proper ass kicking.
Who tells me these things? I read an article about the incident and wanted to see what Dopers thought. I did a search and nothing came up, so I asked the question in my own thread. In case you didn’t know, that’s how this board operates. Just because someone brings something to light that you’d rather close your eyes to, doesn’t mean they are a drone. And actually, part of what I get paid well for is to use my imagination. So you’re off on that one, too.
This doesn’t even make sense. You may want to look up the word “lie” before you hurl it willy-nilly. Could my OP be construed as partisan? Sure. Because it involved an aide to the democratic candidate for a senate seat. That and people like you who jerk to excuse anything that puts his side in a bad light.
I’m not sure if I find you more sad or more comical. You keep spewing nonsense like this without seeing that YOU are the perfect example of what you profess to despise. You just can’t see it because your so so blinded by your partisanship. I’ll go with sadly comical.
Ah, here it is again: my stance on SSM. I’m the homophobe who wants completely equal rights (including the right to adopt), but also wants to reserve the word “marriage”. Oh, I’m SO hateful and afeared, after having chosen to move to that hotbed of homosexual hate, San Francisco.
First, I don’t think of “winning” debates here on the SDMB. I think of it as having a discussion, sharing views. I hold many conservative views. The reasons for which people like you have already heard, and have found unconvincing. It’s the same in reverse. But just because you cannot convince me to view things the way you do, that does not make you stupid. People have different world views, for a million different reasons, and there are people much smarter than you or and I that hold views we don’t agree with. Are they all stupid? Not in my world. What IS stupid is your calling someone else stupid because he or she cannot convince you to change your mind. But this is what you do. It is what you are. The very thing you say you despise. Like I’ve said before, you need to reflect. I think, seriously, you need professional help. Just try to recall the number of the times you’ve attacked posters for being stupid, moronic, etc. I can think of no one who does it more than you, and to more people. If you think I’m wrong, point to that poster.
Think of ten people who are substantially smarter than you (assuming you think they exist). Now if one or two of them holds a view counter to yours on say abortion, or SSM, and they are unable to convince you to switch your position, do they magically turn into idiots and morons. The way I’ve seen you operate, the answer would have to be yes. And that is why you are such a colossal asshole. That is why you need help. That is why you need to talk to someone and reflect a little.
I offer to you the advice that was inscribed on the Oracle at Delphi: Know thyself. If you need a little help in that quest, there is no shame in that. Just think, you might be successful and realize that your an asshole, then you can begin to change.
Yeah, at a polling place. That’s voter intimidation, a crime. The man had to be removed. Charges were filed, but the case was surprisingly dismissed. You can read about it here.
I think that’s putting it excessively mildly. I think Mithril’s take on things is the fair one.
If you want a “discussion” don’t start withe “democratic thuggery”. Assuming you’re not a complete fuckwit, you had to know that that was going to start a shitstorm, not a reasoned discussion.
I think you knew exactly what you were doing and fully expected this thread to end up in the pit.
You’re acting like just as much of an asshole as anyone else in this thread. In fact, you were the proto-asshole in this thread when you started it. You hardly have room to call anyone else out for being an asshole.
Perhaps next time you want to start a “discussion”, you can try starting one with out partisan rhetoric. Or not, if you’re just going to be a shit stirrer.
So do I - but sticking out an arm hardly rises to the level of “thuggery”.
So I’m to understand that there’s so much thuggery on the part of Democrats, that not only has the phenomena acquired a name, but there are distinct regional varieties.
Technically, he didn’t.
Oh, definitely! Around here, for instance, it involves an overly generous helping of hot dish.
Oh come on, he did more than that. He was blocking the man from passing, constantly putting himself int the man’s way. You say you agree with Mithril’s position, but I don’t think what you offer here does.
Was that not his job?
It’s the reporter’s own fault for failing to stay within the Free Speech Zone.
Also: what Driver8 and Mithril said.
So what? Security personnel do that all the time. Would you be okay with it if he had a utility belt and a had with a badge on?
Anyway, as I noted before, the video doesn’t show what the reporter was doing. I have every reason to believe he was harrassing the candidate, since by his own admission she didn’t seem to mind just ignoring his questions earlier on.
ETA: For the record, I agree with you about the black-panthers-at-polling-station thing. I expected a more thorough investigation.
Oh, sorry, Democrat thuggery.
