stevestojan Posted September 30, 2004 Author Share Posted September 30, 2004 Oh...THEN it's okay to refer to people as "backwoods morons." Okay. I got it. Good to know. 51275[/snapback] Right, If i said someone is either a backwoods moron or their name is Paco, then it shouldnt offend you. But, you choose to be offended. Get ready for the big bout tonight.. they should put it on PPV!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_BiB_ Posted September 30, 2004 Share Posted September 30, 2004 BIB, like i responded above, there was a OR in that sentence. But you were #2 of 3 that I knew wouldnt read past it. And i stick by it. People who watch tonights debate are either f-cking morons who will base their vote on this debate (who obviously dont pay attention to day to day and year to year events) OR - I REPEAT OR - ONE MORE TIME OR - those who are supporters of either candidate and simply like to watch them.... I am neither. I can't stand Bush or what he has done OVER FOUR YEARS. I dont need two hours tonight to make me realize that I THINK he is not a good president. (my opinion). Also, I am not a big Kerry Supporter, but like i said, lesser of two evils. So, again, I have no reason to watch. I will reluctantly vote for Kerry. 51263[/snapback] I most definitely read past the OR, and that still doesn't change what was written before it. And I think you are missing my point. You think what you think, and you have every right to decide what you want. It's another step, IMO in the wrong direction for calling folks who don't think the way you do stupid. I'm most likely not watching the debates either, but I don't think EVERYONE who does is either a blind partisan or a moron. Could be, but I doubt it. I will also agree with you that no one should be basing their vote on one debate, after all if nothing else there are two more. I DO think that there might be more than a few as I pointed out earlier, who are using this as just a piece of the puzzle. Sadly, many people are not going to do their homework on this one, and might not vote at all. There's a difference between being purposely ignorant and stupid. I have a particular interest in Defense Policy. That will be the main focus of tonight's debate. I'd watch Kerry's POV if I didn't think it would change by Tuesday.

DC Tom Posted September 30, 2004 Share Posted September 30, 2004 and I STILL stick by that statement 51273[/snapback] That's funny...you didn't the first time, you had to go back and stick that "OR..." clause in it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paco Posted September 30, 2004 Share Posted September 30, 2004 Right, If i said someone is either a backwoods moron or their name is Paco, then it shouldnt offend you. 51277[/snapback] That actually WOULD offend me, stevestojan, because I'm not quite sure what you have accomplished in your life that justifies your standing in judgement of backwoods morons. Oh, wait. You don't care what anyone thinks of you. But you clearly believe they care about what you think of them since you take every opportunity to open your yap and stand in judgement of them. Particularly if they don't agree with you. You should heed BiB's words. He's right on the money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KD in CA Posted September 30, 2004 Share Posted September 30, 2004 I'd say the morons are those who at this point still don't know who they're voting for. What the hell have they been paying attention to for the last four years? Kerry's voting record? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevestojan Posted September 30, 2004 Author Share Posted September 30, 2004 That's funny...you didn't the first time, you had to go back and stick that "OR..." clause in it... 51279[/snapback] again retardo, listen. And i will say this as simply as i can, because i know its getting tough for you. First, i never edited that post. Ask a mod ( a real one) and they will confirm that. But you had such a hardon over arguing here that you didnt read my whole post. And yes, I still stick by it. If someone is watching the debate tonight they are either: 1) Some backwoods moron who hasnt paid attention to the world in the last 4 years. Because the average american SHOULD not need one night to decide whether or not they are happy with Bush and/or they think Kerry can do a better job. or 2) Someone who is a supporter of either candidate and just likes to follow their campaigns. I told you. From what I know, Kerry believes that we do not need to make an admendment to the constitution for gay marriage. He feels it should be a state issue, left to each of the 50. That is as of his most recent stand on it. As far as the Defense of Marriage Act, he has flip-flopped several times (most recently this spring, and before in 1996), as he is so famous for doing. And which is why I am not overally excited about casting my vote for him. But again, lesser of two evils. Man, my fingers are getting tired from responding to things i have already said 100 times. Maybe that's why you need the debates. 4 years of being pounded in the head by one presidents stance wasnt enough. You need two more hours.

DC Tom Posted September 30, 2004 Share Posted September 30, 2004 First, i never edited that post. Ask a mod ( a real one) and they will confirm that. Liar. And a bad one at that. I told you.

That is as of his most recent stand on it. If that were true, then why is he against state legislation on the matter (specifically quoted as being against the Massachusetts DOMA), citing the primacy of the federal law on the subject? Care to re-examine that statement of his position? Maybe you'd like to go out and get a little more information? Oh, I forgot...TV's on... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Guest Posted September 30, 2004 Share Posted September 30, 2004 It's POLLS, Mr. Ejamacation. I take it Kerry is getting your vote. 51262[/snapback] Implying political affiliation can be detected based on spelling words correctly on a football message board is idiotic. Grow up.

stevestojan Posted September 30, 2004 Author Share Posted September 30, 2004 Liar. And a bad one at that. 51308[/snapback] Listen Tom. Like I said, Go ask a mod. They will CONFIRM that i had that whole statement on there. They can obviously see that I never changed that. And since you are a fake mod, you can probably ask one of them. Dont be pissed that you didnt read the whole thing and jumped to conclusions. Its ok. You obviously have some emotional issues anyway. Its ok buddy... its ok. And I answered your questions about kerry as best I can. Again, Im guessing the average voter doesnt know half of what I just told you. AND I TOLD YOU, I AM NOT A BIG KERRY FAN. HOW MANY TIMES DO YOU NEED TO HEAR IT? I could have given you his entire campaign in written form, and you would have found fault. Buddy, listen, its ok. Really. The sun will come up tomorrow.

I knew you had emotional issues, but you just went way over my expectations there! Congrats. Really. That was good. You even used the n-word. I won't type it, but i find it rather shocking that you found it ok to do so. Then, I love this part: "Then, tomorrow, you can get on the internet and ask all the backwoods morons what happened, because they never went to college and don't understand it's too much of a botther for you to do your own homework..." Holy crap, if I find a sentence in the next week that makes less sense than that, i will definitely post it. That's HOF material right there. You just love sticking with that homework thing, don't you? Well, if it's all ya got, go with it it! But really, you may want to consider Paxil, or WellButrin, etc. . .

jad1 Posted September 30, 2004 Share Posted September 30, 2004 Liar.

Care to re-examine that statement of his position? Maybe you'd like to go out and get a little more information? Oh, I forgot...TV's on... 51308[/snapback] Hey man, I know what you're trying to do, but isn't the DOMA a bit arcane. I mean is there anyone out there basing their vote on it? Is somebody saying, "I really don't like the way Bush led us into way in Iraq, but he's really keepin' the queers in their place, so I'll vote for him." Or, "I really like the way Kerry wants to deal with outsourcing, but man, he's going to let fags get married." (I know that's not his actual position, it's hyperbole.) Nobody knows a candidate's position on every issue, nor should they have to. Voters tend to focus on a few key issues and make their decisions from there, because platforms rarely hang together (Pro NAFTA=aniti gay marriage?). Hell, Bush himself couldn't even name important world leaders before the 2000 election, but that didn't stop Republicans from voting for him. The debates should be a source of knowledge, but unfortunately, they've been watered down so much, they've become pretty worthless. Too bad the political parties don't view the electorate as being able to handle a constructive conversation between the two candidates. Instead they package every answer and control every question until the process becomes meaningless. We're not going to learn the candidates true positions on the war, or economy, or DOMA in these debates. Why? Because the parties view the voters as backwoods morons, unable to handle anything more intelligible than a 30 second sound bite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
