Texas judge is absolute idiot. That happens. Even with judges)))

Do you know what does "trolling" means?

Uh, do you?

[Landslide Lyndon]

No, you had wisely neglected to.

[Grumps]

Yes, J.J. it would be pretty funny and unexpected if you posted a fact.

Ouch....I felt that 300 miles away, J.J.

Michigan is usually even more blue than PA. It's only those local polls that have a GOP lean that show MI competitive. Even rasmussen has Obama up 6 or more there.

Actually, Rasmussen has not polled since July.  PPP went from +14 to +7 and some of the lesser polls are showing it closer.

In a number of elections since 1980, MI was more Republican than PA.

In a number of elections since 1980, VT was more Republican than WV, but I don't think even Dick Morris thinks it will this year.

I think you know (assuming you have some intelligence) I'm mocking the 60's protester wannabes that comprise the democrat(ic) party. 

Are you by any chance also the guy who wrote Norbit?

Are you trying to be clownish?

Yeah, some of us have to try. Not everybody is a natural like you.

I actually feel bad for Clinton.  He has an awfully ugly pig to put lipstick on.       

I didn't know that you hired Clinton as your make-up artist.

Outside of the schoolyard, answering a petty insult with another tu quoque petty insult is hardly an example of wit.

Not necessarily. It is the way it is phrased that makes all the difference.

X : ASSHOLE !
Y : NO, YOU ASSHOLE !

...sucks.

X : ASSHOLE !
Y : Nice to meet you, my name is Y !

...is awesome.

Px is somewhere in between these two (but closer to the latter).

Almost all of them are made from wool (the objectively correct material for such things).

ahem.  I suppose you also still chisel your notes onto stone tablets.  Perhaps you have not met with Marco Polo's wonderful treasures from the east.  One day you will.  Until then, enjoy your wool.

If I learned anything from people's reaction to last months job reports, that were about 2 times expectation, is that the unemployment rate is all that maters. So this is a great report!!!

He has hit the nail on the head here gentlemen - almost no normal/ordinary voters delve any further into these reports than the 'unemployment rate'.

The unemployed ones do.

No, you've created far worse.

Such as?

If I had to narrow it down, I'd say every one.

Oof.

9/7/12:

We'll release the Ohio and maybe North Carolina poll Sunday night- those will be our first post-DNC surveys out

9/8/12:

We started 5 state polls- some public, some private- and a national poll last night. What they're looking like: 2008

9/9/12:

Plan is to have Ohio results between 9 and 10 tonight- looks like Obama leads there by more than 2008 margin of victory

Wow. Well, it looks like it's about time to start searching for employment outside of the United States.

Romney has connections in the Caymans, search there.

Read through each of your threads again, focusing only on the posts in which people make fun of you.  Now amplify that by a factor of about 25, and that's what putting you at the front of a classroom would be like.

[Emperor SJoyce]

Chomsky, though I would not strongly object to Dershowitz

odd, because they strongly object to each other.

[Grumps]

Someone mentioned something about unsubstantiated or inaccurate posts. Surely no Mod is messing with those are they?  If so, that would be unwise, in part because then by necessity (unless a mod were working monomaniacally 24/7), the moderating would be almost entirely arbitrary and by accident, and may be colored by personal subjective opinions more than normal, as a few clear water spots are carved out of a sea of pond scum, leaving the overall quantity of the scum just about the same.

Waddaya mean "would be"?

Torie's still interviewing for his theoretically-to-be-Mod position

It's not often Torie gets whacked.

I haven't laughed so hard in weeks --

We're turning into mini California.

Because a left-wing polling organization has the president up by a handful while he's experiencing a post-convention bounce?  The ARG poll shows otherwise, and I suspect that Survey USA will show a Romney lead this week.

ARG is a joke pollster. We know you're a right-wing troll who probably has lived in Colorado Springs all his life and hasn't ever read a book, but if you're going to post on this forum try to have a basic understanding of what you're talking about.

Mondale, next time you get in the mood to call someone a hack or troll (which, as far as I can tell, is about every 5 seconds), read this link: http://uselectionatlas.org/FORUM/index.php?topic=159141.0.

Really? You're criticizing a libertarian for endorsing Romney?

I for one am appalled that anyone would have the gall to muzzle Phil's glorious wit.

[Emperor SJoyce]

You're neglecting that final portion, retro.  Being lazy is not a circumstance beyond one's control.  Now while Mitt grossly overstated the portion of the electorate that is lazy, the fact is that the UDHR does not mandate any sort of government provision to those who are able to provide for themselves.

The lazy is a myth, ernest.  It is a racist scapegoat for capitalism's crimes (or if you don't believe in those, then simple macroeconomic policy).

Oh I agree that lazyness is way over-invoked by those who think as Mitt does (as I pointed out in my original post) but that doesn't mean that there aren't some who are lazy.  However, they are more likely to sponge off their parents than their government.

So since a veeeeeeeeeeeeery tiny amount of people are lazy and get money from the government, we should abolish SS and Medicare?

You are an unobservant idiot if you think that's my position.  There's reason I responded to opebo's comment to my post and not to yours.  While opebo does at times veer into the troll territory you spend so much time in, he usually manages to not come across as an idiot when he does so.

You all take this sort of thing much too seriously; the forum is a hallowed ground of procrastination, not a matter of life and death. Please consider investing in lives.

Ha! Love it. Absolutely love it. There are few things better than seeing faux intellectual Al get totally owned.

I thought Phil was just being Phil. 

<3 that moderators can make personal attacks.

Um, do you realize you just equated "being Phil" as an insult?
