Yes quite easily. Just make sure that it makes enough references to how evil Obama is, corporate puppet masters, I hate Protestants, blah blah blah and you got it.

Duh.

"Suburbs, strip clubs, South Park, opebo, Ralph Nader, Roman Polanski's house", repeat.


Unlike BRTD's accusations against me, this is literally true of BRTD's posting history.

I think so. But your views and attitudes aren't as black and white as they were a few years ago.

No, and there are very few posters that would apply to.  Quincy (a script for misentering the latest Rasmussen poll), Dave "Hawk," (a script using the words "Christian Democrat," "strong defense," and an absurd amount of smilies), nkpatel (whom I'm pretty sure is a script) and pbrower (just update that map and post comments about a few select topics).

It would have been easy back when 19 in every 20 posts was an empty quote of somebody else, but it'd be a little more difficult now.

No amount of programming could imitate all that snark.
