Is Liberal off his meds again?
Or is he merely substituting for Airman Doors today in the “doofus-bashing-*Fahrenheit-9/11-without-seeing-it” role?
Is it time for a Lib meltdown already? I didn’t get the memo, dammit…
That is incredibly low and insensitive.
It’s the BBQ Pit, and I wasn’t in the mood to pull a Cheney. 
It can be quite uncomfortable to be without one’s brain medicine.
Lib was on his meds at some point? I guess now that Milum’s gone he’s deicded there’s a power vacuum in the deranged fuckwit segment of the board.
I agree. Attacking Lib’s posts is one thing but cheap-shotting him abut his meds is uncalled for and insensitive. It’s no different than people attacking Michael Moore for his weight. It’s ad hominem, it’s unfair, it’s off-point and it’s counter to the philosophy of this board.
Yes, it’s a low blow, cheap shot, if you will. But, now I realize it is distracting as well. It has nothing to do with his posts, which is what I am interested in.
rjung, your cheap shot has nothing to do with it being in the BBQ Pit. I can’t expect an apology/retraction whatever as I am not Liberal, but I suspect you realize what you said was uncalled for.
Now, back to the thread.
I agree about the “meds” comment being out of line – however, Lib has a history of severe meltdowns and other aberrant behavior which, considering the amount of time he spends in The Pit, is the cause of a lot of the foul and intolerable stench around here.
Meds or no meds, the guy is a fucking asshole with a history of going off the deep end.
I’m reminded of an anecdote about Babe Ruth and Ty Cobb. (I hope I remember it correctly)
It seems the Yankees were playing in Detroit against Ty Cob’s Tigers one day. At that time, there were rumors about Ruth possibly having some African-American ancestry mostly because of some facial features (thick lips, flat nose) which were perceived as being “negroid” by Ruth’s detractors. During the game, Ty Cobb and one or two of his teammates kept taunting Ruth from the field and in the dugout, calling him “nigger.”
After the game, Ruth approached the Tigers bench, very upset and yelled at Cobb, “Look, I don’t mind you fellas calling me a prick and a cocksucker and all but could you lay off the personal stuff?”
I say Lib an asshole if you want, (he can take it) but lay off the personal stuff.
So what will you say when I watch it and still pan it into next week?
Oh, and in case I hadn’t made my thoughts abundantly clear, you are a pure, unadulterated dickhead. I laid off of you for a while, figuring that you might have been right when you said that I had the problem with you. Nope. You have the problem. You insult long after the point was made or conceded, you question my motives at every turn, you’re a smug little bastard, and you make the most disgusting insinuations for no apparent reason. You are a despicable man. And that’s too bad, because as smart as you are you might actually have something to offer. Too bad you never do anything but act the dickhead.
Liberal may have his moments where it seems like he’s flying off the handle, but who the fuck are you to make a comment like that? Maybe he is off his meds. What fucking business is that of yours?
I have had enough of you.
I think rjung’s comment was meant as a joke.
A question though.
Does MsRobyn really need your permission to go see the movie? Are y’all really not equals in your relationship?
Liberal, I can understand and respect your choice not to see the movie. But so far no one has been able to come up with any lies or inaccuracies in the film.
-
In another thread, I was supported in my contention that Moore did not say that Saddam had never threatened any American. He said that Saddam had never threatened America.
-
Other claims of inaccuries have been addressed in this thread and dismissed.
-
You have demonstrated problems with understanding what was said in at least one of the reviews.
-
If you haven’t seen the movie, then you can’t “find” it to be anything – true, false, tacky, eloquent, biased, moving, entertaining, – whatever. You have no real opinion of your own. Your opinion is not based on the film but on what others have said about it – liberals and conservatives alike.
-
In your need for this film to be inaccurate, you yourself have lost credibility.
If you can verify that the film does indeed claim something that is not true, then by all means, go after it! But at least double check to see what is actually in the film.
I’d say that you are showing yourself to have a firmly closed mind, which is almost as bad as denouncing it before seeing it.
Those of us who do take medications in order to have normally functioning brain chemistry don’t find anything humorous in mental illness. It is the constant ridicule that keeps some people from seeking the help they need for an illness that is too often terminal.
Your understanding and rjung’s would be appreciated.
I don’t need his permission, per se, but I do need him to babysit.

No, genius. This is what I wrote:
Please note that I didn’t say “If you find the material to be half truthful, you won’t want to vote for Bush.”
These are two entirely different statements. The fact that you have deliberately or inadvertantly misattributed the latter to me speaks loudly of your utter incompetence as a reasoned debator. Instead of realizing that there is no way you can argue effectively in this thread without first seeing the movie, you resort to pulling this kind of doo-doo out of your ass. And then you announce to the world that you don’t even plan on seeing the movie essentially because you are too smart, as if all of us who have seen it before commenting critically are somehow less enlightened that you.
You don’t know shit about F9/11. Either see it and then argue about it, or don’t see it and shut the hell up. We don’t care about your blissfully ignorant opinions. Keep reading all those articles and reports, like the ones that have propped you up in this thread. You can always count on the writers that lean closest to your ideology to tell you what to think, right? You don’t want to risk going to see the film yourself before you slam it, because if you do that, good gollee there’s a small chance you might actually learn something from that brain-washing Commie propagandist Michael Moore. We can’t have that now, can we?
And monstro is correct: I am a woman. I’m also a registered independent. So does that make me a horse with zebra-like stripes?
How does that work, exactly? In my state (IL) anyway, one registers to vote, not for a particular party. And since 'independent" isn’t even a party…
In Massachusetts, they’re called Unenrolled voters, in the sense that they are not enrolled in any party but still registered. There usually is some fringe party calling itself Independent on the ballot, way way down–sometimes LaRouche uses that pseudonym. So perhaps in her state they call it Independent.
Some states do have an independent box on the registration form. It is possible to be a registered independent, depending on the state.
