The Deluge of Absurdity, Ignorance, and Bad Posts

I have started the water drinking today, though. I didn't drink as much as I wanted to, but I'm just getting started!

Why is this post bad?

Because the average person needs 1.9 liters of water a day, and not getting that for an extended period entails a significant risk to your health, which is entirely avoidable in the US.

For much of its life, the European Parliament could have been justly labeled a 'multi-lingual talking shop'. But this is no longer the case: the EP is now one of the most powerful legislatures in the world both in terms of its legislative and executive oversight powers.

It's not bad; it's absurd.

Don't you mean Los Angeles?

Not sure whether it's more "absurd", "ignorant", or just "bad".

Toss-up.  New Jersey has some awesome rock musicians (Frankie Valli, Bruce Springsteen, Bon Jovi, etc.), but they also voted for McClellan in 1864 .  Connecticut also gave us Lowell Weicker, Prescott Bush and Joe Lieberman.  Still, New Jersey's got some good things going for it.  Still toss-up.

lol Oldiesfreak.

I'm sure he's not serious. That, or mentally deranged. He's literally one or the other.

Republicans declare war on liberal hacks and historical revisionists, Oldiesfreak to lead the charge.

Should we rename this thread in 'honor' of Oldiesfreak? Because seriously, now…

The Oldiesfreak Memorial Deluge of Absurdity, Ignorance and Bad Posts has a nice ring to it.

Philadelphia MS was the one where those civil rights workers were killed, wasn't it?

Yes.  Precisely why I voted for Philadelphia, PA

I can't help it if you can't stand up to facts.  Or should I say this instead:

If only any of them were of substance...

They have substance, it's just awful substance.

They are of conservative substance, but they are not awful.  I enjoy reading his posts!

This doesn't surprise me.

I do appreciate that he ended his sentence with an exclamation point to elucidate his own idiocy.

You guys have elucidated your own idiocy as well by hiding from obvious historical facts and pretending that liberal historical revisionism is fact.

[Okay, maybe Mike Johnson is a competent parliamentarian.]

The first sentence here is to an extent accurate (or, at least, you won't do very well or last very long) but the second is, uh...

You can't be a dumb f-ck and join up.  As has been discussed before, the average person in the military is better than the average person not in the military.

[Oldiesfreak1854]

Ouch!  You guys are mean!!!

On second thought, I'm humbled that a thread was named after me.

Does not belong here. The reply to it, on the other hand...

It's the 'Memorial Deluge' because (assuming a maximum human lifespan of ~122.5 years) you probably died in 1988.

I would argue all of them are of equal importance, however even though I personally like the 1st, 4th, and 10th best, the 2nd is the only one which guarantees the ability to protect the others.

Last time I checked, President Bush wasn't a bad president.  I'm a Democrat, but IMO, he was the better person to handle 9/11.  President Bush was also far from "dumb".  He is extremely intelligent (almost too much for his own good).  He wasn't a great president, but he wasn't a bad president, either.  I think history will smile on his administration overall.  Iraq was not a mistake, initially, it was IMPERATIVE to get Saddam Hussein out of there.  The problem lies in not being prepared for such a quick and decisive victory over the Saddam regime.  Al Gore would have been alright, but he's just not a likeable guy.  President Obama, OTOH, is very likeable and very intelligtent.  Al Gore needs to stay in the background, otherwise he will pretty much guarantee a Republican will be inaugurated on January 20, 2017.  Also, Hillary is far from a guarantee.  Even if she does run, she's not automatically going to win.  America is still a center-right country.

Nobody, and I mean nobody, can call George W. Bush dumb and be correct.

He's correct.

I fail too see what's absurd, ignorant, or bad about that post...

What a convincing argument! You have completely changed my opinion of the 2nd amendment!
