Its funny how a knuckle-dragging cretin thinks he can be clever by explaining what insult he isn’t posting for everyone to see.

Hurr, hurr, hurr… Palin/King 2016!!!

By the way, why the fuck are you and your ilk more upset at “Barrycades” than you are about millions of poor women losing WIC benefits?

Let me guess: because you aren’t a poor woman.

Because, as anyone who is familiar with your posting history here knows, you are entirely too stupid to be reasoned with.

Oh, bite me.

You and the rest of the cretins here have absolutely no friggin’ idea at all how closely you resemble the baboons in the monkey house at the zoo. You just jump up and down, throw shit and circle jerk each other. You call me stupid for the pure and simple reason that you can’t refute what I said and it pisses you off.

I’ve got toenail fungus that is smarter than the lot of you.

Translation: “Why can’t those stinky worthless dumbass liberal poopypants knock off the name-calling and engage in reasoned debate like grownups?!”

I actually did that, what your source reported was not the truth as most people in reality do not agree with the Republicans on this one, even less with the idea that most would see what happened as vindictive.

So, there is a reason indeed to call your \*\*report \*\*stupid.

It’s not just that what you say is easily refuted. It’s that we’ve usually refuted days before you’re even aware that something’s happened. We’ve had actual park employees, on this board, posting why they think it’s important that memorials be closed down when they don’t have enough staff to take care of them. We could link you to those posts, but what’s the point? You’ll just do the same thing you do every time someone presents facts that don’t line up with your preconceived delusions of reality: you’ll shit your pants, and run home.

It must be nice to be so completely unconcerned with reality. I imagine it’s very soothing.

For my sake, then? I haven’t seen these posts and would love to get an idea of what’s going on from the perspective of actual park workers. 🙂

Ring the bells! We got us a tea bagger who thinks evolution is true! 😃

If we’re thinking of the same posts, they’re in GD. In the WW2 Memorial Controversy thread specifically.

_snip_ You call me _stupid_ for the pure and simple reason that you can’t refute what I said and it pisses you off.

[QUOTE]

Or, applying Occam’s Razor and examining the simpler possibilities, it could be that you truly are perceived as having less than optimal reasoning abilities?

Michelle Bachmann, Sarah Palin, Rush Limbaugh, Christine O’Donnell, Rick Perry…

All of them are hilarious. PJ O’Rourke has written some pretty funny books, but for sidesplitting laughs it’s hard to beat my list.  
Sorry for the delay. Bit of a time difference, you know.

It’s funny, isn’t it, how people with Obama Derangement Syndrome (like **Clothy** ) are so willing to believe that a politician, who by his very nature is subservient to polls and public perception, will actually do things with the sole vindictive purpose of punishing those he most wishes to please.

They imagine him sitting in his office, twirling his Simon bar-Sinister mustache, thinking of ways to make the people of his own country suffer. Not simply doing things that True Americans like **Clothahump** and Sarah Palin just do not agree are better choices for the country; but “vindictive” actions against not just his political opponents, but all Americans, and to hell with his legacy as a president! His one and only goal is to make Americans suffer!
