You don't understand what you read, Admiral--you exploit it. You gather up some prejudicial b.s. inferred from my post and smugly warn me not to underestimate you. Now that is funny. Expecting simple reading comprehension is overestimating you. So, you dismiss your own libelous remarks about the President, defend them not at all, expecting me to do the same, and proceed to your first, however vaguely, substantive generalizations about actual policy. Quote:Obama strikes me as the sort of politician who feels that money and government can solve all problems. I think that they just cause new ones.You think that one up all by yourself? You want a cookie? It doesn't work like that. You don't come in here being a jackass, polluting the forum with your dad's hand-me-down talking points, then expect people to take you seriously when you realize that your b.s. doesn't fly. HKCavalier Hey, hey, hey, don't be mean. We don't have to be mean, because, remember, no matter where you go, there you are.

No WMDs, and our so-called investigations were a ruse to make sure the victim was defenseless as possible before we invaded, which we were gonna do no matter what, check. Taser abuse would become widespread, check. Osama is almost certainly dead since Dec 2001, check. Wholesale dragnet surveillence, a claim might I remind you was laughed off at the time, check. Abusive conduct by our Alphabet goons, check. Blackwater malfeasance, check. Democrats rolling over like bitches the instant they got a majority, check. Active duty troops deployed here with crowd control packages, check. ADS Pain Beam *NEVER* intended for theatre deployment, *ALWAYS* intended for citizen pacification, check. Neocon Cabal members heading for the hills, often other countries, check. Doesn't include satellite/non political stuff, like the FLDS and Gardasil fiascos, which I called chapter and verse all the way down the line either. Oh yeah, and this administration not stopping the abuses cause they didn't wanna cut the leash so much as just change who was holding it, check. You might have noticed a pattern here, of said predictions falling in the 85-90% range if you've been watching, some of which was admittedly by "cheating" via having information or hints thereof not commonly available by mainstream sources at the time. Dunno about you, but thems betting odds to me.

Of course, by your own words, you WOULD vote for him for a second term, right? After all, at that point he WILL be the most experienced candidate running for the office... Mike

Quote:Originally posted by SignyM: You were challenging Frem to refresh your memory on the SERIOUS criticisms about Bush.
Quote:Originally posted by Kwicko: Is it that you can't find any evidence to deny Frem's words, or do your lips just get tired from all that reading?
Quote:Originally posted by Kwicko: Of course, by your own words, you WOULD vote for him for a second term, right? After all, at that point he WILL be the most experienced candidate running for the office...
Quote:Originally posted by Kwicko: Hell, BDN, in this analogy, not only didn't you call it, but Frem did, AND he also told you WHERE the drunk would hit something, and WHAT he would hit.
Quote:Originally posted by Kwicko: A "prediction" wouldn't be saying that "bad things *could* happen". A "prediction" would involve saying WHAT was going to happen, HOW it was going to happen, and WHEN. Seems Frem has a very much better track record around here than you, when it comes to predictions.
Quote:Originally posted by Kwicko: Weren't you one of the ones who said Bush was going to be remembered as a "great" President?
Quote:Originally posted by Kwicko: See if you can dig up where you said that, okay?

Quote:Originally posted by Kwicko: Quote:And when did you crawl so far up Frem's ass... And there you go ascribing your desires to others. So is agreeing with someone now "crawling up their ass"? Is that your official position on it? How long have you been in Rappy's ass? Or Hero's? Can you tell what they had for breakfast?
Quote:Originally posted by Kwicko: Quote: Since when are Canadians allowed to vote for the POTUS? Comprehension really isn't your strong suit, is it? You'll note that I asked him if he "WOULD" vote for Obama (as in, WOULD you vote for him if you could?), not if he "WILL" vote for him. Since he's a Canadian, he obviously can't vote for our President.
Quote:Originally posted by Kwicko: But it's nice of him to tell us who we should and shouldn't have for our leader.

Okay, so then why the CLUMSY attempt at re-direction???
Quote:Originally posted by SignyM: This wasn't about silliness. Never was.
Quote:Originally posted by SignyM: And, I noticed, that you never DID answer Frem's list of predictions... The basis of which was: Whatever illegal act Bush does now which you support will be used by another President whom you do NOT support. Seems. actually, to be straightforward. But you still haven't gotten it.
Quote:Originally posted by SignyM: Hell, you can't even admit when things are goin' seriously wrong AT THE MOMENT.
Quote:Originally posted by SignyM: Time to remove your blinders, BDN. Wake up an' smell the coffee.
Quote:Originally posted by SignyM: Oh, BTW... everyone but you sees this as the pathetic attempt that it is to cast YOUR error on Kwicko. You made the same mistake in the other thread about FDLS... constantly misunderstanding me due to your simple FAILURE TO READ ACCURATELY, missing all of the "ifs" and "seems to be" which I had included in my posts to indicate that I had simply not made up my mind either way on the topic.
Quote:Originally posted by SignyM: Now, I don't claim to be as smart as Kwicko or as world-wise as Frem, as fact-rich as Rue or as empathetic as HK, but everyone knows that any of them can think circles around you, and it would suit your purposes NOT to try making them look stupid over YOUR mistakes, because it makes you look even more irrelevant.
Quote:Originally posted by SignyM: So a word to the wise (if you can deal with it): READ CAREFULLY AND RESPOND DIRECTLY. You'll get into far less trouble that way, and you'll represent your viewpoint a whole lot more effectively.

Quote:Originally posted by Kwicko: Or were you willingly distorting and misunderstanding my intention in hopes of trying to score a couple cheap points in an argument you're clearly outmatched in?
Quote:Originally posted by Kwicko: Well, in that case, Frem's already done that. If you're claiming that he DIDN'T lay the stuff out chapter and verse, then isn't it incumbent ON YOU to back up your claim, and show us all where he got it so horribly wrong?
Quote:Originally posted by Kwicko: As you said, do your own homework. Make your case, or admit that you have none.
Quote:Originally posted by Kwicko: As for why I responded instead of Frem, well, maybe it's because something about you just rubs me the wrong way. Know what I mean?
Quote:Originally posted by Kwicko: Also, I was under the impression that when you post on an open forum, you open your posts up for responses from all comers. If you wanted to speak ONLY to Frem, maybe you should try PMing him.

Quote:Originally posted by Kwicko: And when I pointed that out, your response? "Nice save " Again, seems like you're desperate for a "false sense of superiority".
Quote:Originally posted by Kwicko: Ah, so when you point out any grammatical errors that I might make, that's just you angling for a false sense of superiority again, right? So it's not that you don't enjoy a false sense of superiority, it's that you just want to make sure it's your particular brand.

Quote:Originally posted by SignyM: I would appreciate a direct response to my prediction, and to my request for a single instance of where you criticized the Bush administration or made a single prediction about where his policies would lead.
