Instead of attempting to compile the catalog of ignorance that spills out of **DerekMichaels00** every time he puts fingers to keyboard, perhaps he can enlighten us by sharing something - anything! - that is factually correct that he has learned today.

Dumber than wet bag of hair, that kid. :smack:

I endorse this pitting. He consistently makes outlandish claims that can only come from right-wing radio fantasies without any basis whatsoever, and when challenged, either repeats them with no basis or vanishes.

Just another in a long line of right wing ideologues who are fed on the misinformation of Right Wing Media, consider if the Gospel According to Jesus and have absolutely zero ability to discern the bullshit or learn from others.

They come, they raise a lot of noise with bullshit claims, make wild accusations against the people here who try to question or educate them, then leave in a huff, no doubt going over to some right wing site complaining about all the “Libtards” on this board who refused to believe their TRUTH.

Or they more or less self-ban by refusing to behave themselves.

I wasn’t going to pile on but having seen some of the latest drivel I can’t help it. He self-identifies as a liberal Democrat of highly progressive views and has claimed this numerous times. I still haven’t figured out (and don’t really care) if he just does it as an intentionally annoying trolling tactic or if he genuinely doesn’t know that he sounds like a particularly dumb version of Rush Limbaugh.

But he’s _progressive_, dammit! Judge a person on what they say, not on what they do. Or something like that. 😛

It’s a messageboard. You have to judge people on what they post, not on what they post.
