Gibberish gibbered by an octagenarian gibberer who also happens to have been gibbering on and on and on for years on end. This is gibbering on an epic scale, JD may be close to setting the world record for continuous gibbering. Well done, you may end up in the Fox Gibbering Hall of Fame.
Now this is a first, a complete screed of gibberish, accusing another poster of posting gibberish.
Now you don't think I forgot your world class, star worthy brand of gibberish did you? You know something, some of these people have no sense of humor. I got down rated for a classic comeback that should have elicited a smile from everyone just as I know it did for you. Have we lost our sense of humor? My lord, I am working hard here to bridge the intelligence gap but sometimes it just seems like its a lost cause.
It's a universal problem. When you are talking face to face with someone, you can hear the inflection in their voice and see the sly smile or wink and know they are joking or playing. I love subtle, tongue-in-cheek humor but it's almost impossible to use it on the written page without adding a complete explanation.
I come here once in a while only because some of the old fray regulars hang here. I have to admit though, this is a mean place with no real core to it. There is no fun here, it's all Jane you worthless slut stuff every time I read anything. It is one thing to disagree but do we have to separate ourselves to the point where we cannot find one single thing in common? Is there nothing that binds us together anymore? I find the lack of any desire or need to feel part of a larger group at the heart of what is failing us right now. I confess that I succumb to this myself. It would be easy for me to just hate others, in fact, I do. But is that good? I don't think so. My advice is to stop watching obviously slanted and politically inspired media and reconnect to somehow become Americans again. It was not that long ago when all of us thought we were Americans not democrats or republicans.
But ALL politically inspired media are slanted and biased in one direction or the other.
Bull. Political bias implies a desire by management to promote something. Our media is owned by money hungry jerks who would turn our media into supporters of perversion if it made them money. The idea that some master plan is at work at non-Fox media outlets is a right wing fantasy. The truth is that all of us are biased, we cannot escape our own personal worlds. Those of us who attempt to be subjective can only get close, we cannot really be subjective. But when you throw money into it, we all get personal, its about us and how much dough or power we can gain. I truly believe that in our lifetimes, the news was once a fairly objective place. That lasted for about 20-30 years after WW2 when our collective shock was so profound that we had to admit all of us were in the same boat. That was the world of the 50s and 60s. Along came the 70s and it started to fade away, WW2 and the depression were no longer part of our story lines. We became fixated on the "I". Reagan turned us into individual champions of the cult of the "me, me, mine". We lost ourselves in the pursuit of money. That is where we are today. All that counts is money. It disgusts me.
Horseshit, WB, the alphabet news, ABC, CBS, NBC, MSNBC, CNN, WAPO and NYT, and others, have, by choice become, the right arm of the Democrat Party, and its primary fundraising vehicle. The evidence is compelling. They either ignore the bad news for Democrats or simply make up news as they wish it was.
More gibberish, you are on a roll. JD, you need to retire from this stuff. Your world is consumed with trying to separate us from each other to gain what exactly? You live in Texas. No state is more of a paradise of right wing claptrap than the mighty state of brisket. The country is a mix of all of us. You and yours are not Americans all by yourself. We are all Americans and this concept evades you in your insane desire for conservative purity. I really don't give a shit if you want to believe conservatism is the best thing since sliced bread. But if you accompany your wet dreams with the power to force your views upon me, judge others like immigrants, gays, liberals and so on to the point where they are persecuted, you and yours can go f yourself. We are the majority. In the war of views, we always win because our culture and society is moving away from your dreams of yore, we are moving past you despite politics.
Ah, you, my friend, are the consummate Liberal. black is white; white is black; up is down and down is up; wrong is right; right is wrong; night is day and day is night, etc.
Yeah, I've looked at a lot of the uniforms at battlefield visitor centers and was amazed at how small most of the men were in those times. There were some fat guys, of course ,but most were very slender. I couldn't get into my Navy uniforms 5 years after I got out of the service, especially my hat.
I love a man in uniform.
Too late for me.
