Pfft. That is just average for Tennessee crazy.
No, 90% of the posts in this thread are moronic libs trying to whine their way out from under the problems the other libs have caused. Even better times!
Lobo, pucker up and kiss my rosy red ass. You are an annoying little pissant who adds about as much value to a thread as toenail fungus does.
U mad bro?
Sorry, Clothy, I’m married. Also, I don’t sexually involved with mental-deficients.
I’ll let the peanut gallery decide which of us has more to contribute.
That’s still more than you, you tiny little wiper of other people’s bottoms.
Keep fuckin’ that chicken, Clothy. Your dick’s small enough for it, enjoy what you have.
Hey, if there’s room for the egg to come out…
The stupid liberal idea of the day is “I’m sure I can say something that will penetrate the thick fog of willful stupidity and cause Clothahump to feel actual human emotion and think rational thoughts.”
Maybe I should have just let this thread lie in the cold, cold, ground, but the Obama DoJ did something dumb, and this seemed like the place for that.
As Taibbi points out, the common folk get taken for great amounts for even appearing to be in the drug trade. Apparently great wealth has its privileges.
I’m a fan of Matt Taibbi.
I agree this is a stupid idea, and you can call it a stupid Democratic idea if you wish, but I think it’s wrong to blame the “liberals.” Such travesties occur because the Democratic Party is NOT liberal.
Those who think America has a “left-wing” party and a “right-wing” party are poorly informed. We have a right-wing party and a lunatic party.
Oh, I don’t think the Drug War is particularly “liberal” by USA standards, but aren’t we engaging in some kind of fallacy by decrying the Democrats as not true liberals when they pull stuff like this? These are the liberals we have.
“No True Scotsman” - and yes, definitions change over time. Sometimes language can be consciously changed by propagandist’s framing of issues. Whether or not waterboarding is torture, for instance. It is a bit jarring to classify something that would not fit under any definition of liberal I’ve heard of as a “stupid liberal idea” though. Then again, a more apt name for the thread title would have been “News which makes the Democratic party or its affiliates look bad”.
And to paraphrase someone wiser (or at least more well-known) than I am, you go to govern with the liberals you have, not the liberals you’d like to have. When you consider the alternative, it’s the only halfway sane course of action.
I don’t want to argue semantics but when Democrats err by not being “liberal” enough, it seems backwards to blame “liberalness.”
Fair enough. Stupid liberal idea of the day, more stupid in contrast to liberals’ liberal acceptance of illiberality in the Drug War.
I think that you are being rather liberal in your use of the word “liberal” in this “Stupid liberal of the day” thread.
Really, Diane…really? You’ve shown us all that you’re a total moron throughout your entire career. Now you want to add to it?
Would it astonish you to learn that your view point is not unanimously endorsed?
As a blind squirrel finds a nut, Humpy Dumpy finds an actual example of liberal stupidity. Any gun control bill that includes the phrase “specifically named guns” is automatically suspect–and this one makes the same mistake as the last AWB, namely it bans scary-looking guns while illogically leaving untouched a panoply of hunting arms that are functionally equivalent in terms of firepower.
