Regarding the Viet Cong, the only passable thing I can think of is Jane Fonda’s visit and her sympathetic comments. Whee, so you caught one loon of a liberal making an ass out of herself. Big fucking deal. How about I apply the same kind of measuring stick to all Catholic priests using the child-molesting ones as the guide, or perhaps judge all ministers by Fred Phelps’ actions? ---

**Left Hand of Dorkness** shhhh quiet. I know that but I also know this poster is too lazy to look beyond tabloids for cites. I’m not mocking a party I’m mocking their blind stupidity. ---

their blind stupidity should have been “this poster’s blind stupidity” Heh looks like I need to go before I become totally incoherent. I imagine the others around here will do a better job of toasting this guy/girl anyway. ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by Binarydrone \* > \*\*And Bush has a small penis. Look a cite to back this up an everything. :rolleyes: \*\* Sir! I rise in protest at your presumption that the possession of a compact, economy size tallywhacker is somehow a measure of inadequacy, or is in any way relevent to a man’s character. If you cannot hit the target with a .22, a howitzer won’t help you much. Many of our most esteemed posters are “needledicks” and “bug-fuckers”… **Diogenes the Cynic, Sam Stone, Scylla, Spavined Gelding, Minty Green** , to name just a few! While I am personally disqualified from such company, I take umbrage on their behalf, and most strenuously insist…nay, _demand_…that you cease and desist from any such disrespectful references! (Don’t worry, guys! Ol’ **elucidator** is sticking up for you!) ---

Comrades! Did no one get their membership packet? _sigh_ Call your local representative and have them rush deliver it to you or you’ll miss out on the holiday celebrations where we drink the blood of the innocent, sacrifice babies, and pray for the birth of the anti-christ. I expect much self-flagellation and apologizing for your failures in the glorious revolution at your next reeducation session. ---

I agree with the OP – liberals need to learn to follow the good example set by conservatives. While there may have been a conservative here or there who mildly disapproved of Bill Clinton during the course of his presidency, they at least had the decency and good manners to keep any negative opinions of him to themselves. And that’s not even getting into the universal liberal desire to murder innocent people by the millions. Scumbags. ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by NurseCarmen \* > \*\*Gee. To think that all conservatives had such warm fuzzy things to say about Clinton. \*\* I have to really grudgingly admire conservatives for being so much better at politics than the liberals. They have managed to frame disgreement with the Republican president as treason and hate, while their own disgreements with Clinton never got any such response that I remember. Not to mention the comparison to what Clinton was impeached for, compared to what things Reagan and the W. Bush got away with. ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by elucidator \* > \*\*(Don’t worry, guys! Ol’ **elucidator** is sticking up for you!) \*\* With friends like you, who needs…oh well, you know the rest of the line. I look forward to seeing James Carville and Al Franken hawk video tapes that show that President Bush is involved in the cocaine trade and has had people with dirt on him murdered. I also hold up this thread as a response to the incessant claims that no Conservitive/Reastionary/Republican can get a word in edgewise around here. ---

The **Hydro** Not-So-Great Debate Technique: 1. Post link to a laughable piece of predigested spin from some hard right outpost (e.g., Newsmax, WND, Drudge). 2. Add fantastically broad generalization, made in total seriousness without a trace of reflection, supporting arguments, etc. (e.g., “Did the anthrax from the letters sent to Congress and the media come from Iraq?,” “Proof of angels!”). Some real gems can be posted without supporting cites at all (remember [“Should we adopt my system of government?”](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=222855) A classic! The answer, BTW, was “no.”) 3. Make a maximum of one additional post in the stinkpot thread that results. [A few](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=225134) [supporting](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=221663) [examples](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=219357). ---

Now **luci** , I don’t know most of the others, but I happen to call **minty green** a friend in real life as well as on the boards. I have no actual carnal knowledge of the gentleman in question, but here are some facts which I can lay on the table in lieu of laying something else on the table. He drives a Volkswagon. A [4-door Volkswagon](http://www.vw.com/passat/), not one of the sporty ones. A bug-fucker would most likely drive something larger, or at least more sporty. Offsets the feeling of inadequacy you know. His house has a wetbar. A **wetbar**! Now this is a man’s man. An entire section of the house dedicated to all things alcoholic. He has a flat-panel TV mounted on the wall _in the kitchen_. Sports fan that he is, he has arranged matters so he doesn’t have to miss a play, even when he’s away from the sofa. Throw in the extra-cool factor of a flat-panel TV and the “real man” meter has to creep up a bit. Let’s see, what else. Gutters full of leaves? Check. Automatic cleaning device for the pool so he doesn’t have to do it his damn self? Check. Automatic deference to the wife during shopping “Whatever you want honey.”? Check. Buys his friends rounds at the bar? Check. Nothing that I’ve seen would seem to indicate that he is any less of a man than the average Joe. Note this is not a request for definitive evidence, by the way. Enjoy, Steven ---
