3 Cheers for 1StrongBlackMan ...

[1StrongBlackMan]

I just shut down a group of akin apologists.

I was headed to my vehicle to store a couple articles that I had printed out for later use. One of the documents was the draft language of the 2012 gop platform.

As I passed the "smoker's table", I could hear the (male and female) apologists saying his comments were "not reflective of mainstream gop thought" and were "clearly the comments of a conservative outlyer" because "no republican would deny a woman an abortion in the case of rape."

I respond: "Really? Does the 2012 gop platform reflect the position of the gop mainstream? What about the position of the named gop VP candidate ... Would that refect mainstream gop thought?

Here read the section on abortion ... it mirrors the language of the Sanctity of Human Life Act of 2009 that was sponsored by akin AND ryan; neither of which allow for a rape exception."

One of them actual took and read the document. While I could smell his mental clutch burning out as he looked to explain it away, the look on his face was priceless!

1. Good job 1StrongBlackMan

[coalition_unwilling]

2. It's a dirty job, but someone has to do it. Tip of my hat to you! - n/t

[Glorfindel]

3. Hip, hip, HOORAY! Three cheers, indeed.

[dawg]

4. Hip, hip ...

hooray!

The time to suffer this crap in silence is over.

[LadyHawkAZ]

5. You win the day, sir!

[1StrongBlackMan]

17. Assuming that the "AZ" ...

in LadyHawkAZ stands for Arizona ... I suspect you might want to brace yourself for exploding heads..

The conversation happened in Tucson.

[LadyHawkAZ]

36. When I made the account, I lived in Arizona

So I know what you mean.

[cr8tvlde]

6. Baffle 'em with their own Bull sh##.

It feels good, even if it's only temporary. Sigh.

[Grey]

7. Excellent...

Hooray...

[JoePhilly]

8. SMACK!!

Nice job!

[Whisp]

9. ''While I could smell his mental clutch burning out...''

good on you, Mr. 1S

[Cha]

10. Impeccable

Timing! Thanks for setting those giving those ignorant people some food for thought, 1StrongBlackMan.

[ismnotwasm]

11. WOOT

Three cheers indeed

[ecstatic]

12. Good job and good idea

I'm not into debating strangers IRL, but I think I could handle keeping a folder with debunked GOP talking points in my purse.

[REP]

13. And one cheer more!

[CanisCrocinus]

14. Few things in life

are as gratifying as having the right answer at the right time. Hats off to you, sir.

[NJCher]

55. and let's not forget the authority of print

He had the platform in his hand, in writing.

He might have been able to articulate it in speech, but it had a double whammy with being backed up in writing.

Fortuitous!

15. They don't sound like Akin apologists,

they didn't seem to be trying to excuse anything he did. It sounds more like they were trying to distance themselves (and the repuke party) from those comments. A party's platform should reflect the position of their mainstream, but that doesn't mean it necessarily does.

Good for you to point out that their party's platform DOESN'T reflect what they believe, but these sound like people who already disagreed with Akin and Ryan's position.

[1StrongBlackMan]

18. True to most of what you have written ...

They WERE trying to distance themselves from akin; but these people who disagree with akin and ryan's position because they didn't know they were the same.

That's stage II of the Democratic message.

[hughee99]

19. I think many repukes don't know what their own candidate's positions are

on these issues, and with Rmoney, I can understand why. He's been "consistently" on both sides of many issues.

[RainDog]

16. Good on you! n/t

[mitchtv]

20. three cheers to you

hip, hip hooray

[mnhtnbb]

21. Good for you!

[DevonRex]

22. Yay x 3!

Good for you.

[HooptieWagon]

23. Good job, 1SBM!

[kenfrequed]

24. good job.

I was even a bit floored by this whole debacle and bought into the idea that there was no way that this could be the GOP mainstream. I think it would be more accurate to say that the GOP mainstream has no idea how far to the right their party has drifted.

But again, Great Job! Keep up the good work.

[deaniac21]

25. Dang, I wonder what the odds

of you carrying a printed gop platform to your car and running into gop apologists! Providence!

[1StrongBlackMan]

30. Actually ...

The odds are pretty good!

I regularly print out information that I plan to review at home.

In order to get it to my car, I have to walk past the smoker's table ... which is always full of rw government workers, enjoying their lunch time break.

They are always talking "politics" (read: how terrible President Obama is; how they REALLY want smaller government and fewer regulations and lower taxes ... Oh yeah, they also complain about not having been given a raise in 5 years!

True to rwing thought, they can't seem to make the smaller government and lower tax/No raise for government workers connection.)

[deaniac21]

58. Quit killing tree's

[1StrongBlackMan]

59. Yes ...

Mam/Sir

[randome]

26. Way to go! But don't hold it over them.

Some can be turned.

[Warpy]

27. Well, he's not going to be your friend on Facebook

but I imagine that matters as little to you as it does to me.

I do love to see them have to reboot when their brains seize up over being presented with their own candidate's stance on issues. That Republican equivalent of the BSOD is always gratifying.

[meegbear]

28. w00t!

[freshwest]

29. Thank you for your courage and style doing that!

[Bonhomme Richard]

31. Unfortunately the reality is that they will still pull that lever.

You only managed to confuse them a bit before their "Doesn't matter we can't let those Dems win no matter what the facts" gene moves into high gear.

[AtomicKitten]

32. Nothing more vicious than skewering them with their own words.

[patrice]

33. They are saying, TTE, "We don't mean what we say." PRICELESS!!!!!!

[Hoyt]

34. Good one. That "dang the world ain't flat" look is worth a million.

I like the "mental clutch" image too.

[handmade34]

35. "3 Cheers for 1StrongBlackMan"

let me give you a and a good job!

[treestar]

37. 3 cheers!

[redqueen]

38. Hahahahahaha... well done!

[ailsagirl]

39. Kudos to you and thanks for sharing!!

"...the look on his face was priceless."

I bet!!



Let me be the proud 99th person to recommend this!!

[Skittles]

40. I LOVES ME 1STRONGBLACKMAN

[Fumesucker]

41. K&R

[Tom Ripley]

42. Nice work

[allan01]

43. re:3 Cheers for 1StrongBlackMan ...

i was in mcdonalds today w a friend , a libertraian friend . ) i use that as a protest vote) one friend and i were talking about things and catching up the other friend was actualy praizing rmony ,ryan and akin . made my stomach turn. i hope seriously that these people get what they deservere and when rmony and his henchmen ruin this country for good , hehe .live with it. great job 1StrongBlackMan. i love to hear them (the repugs ) go sputter sputt, sputt when caught in a lie ! and a few hazzuas to go arund . ive been holding back lately again on replys as there have been great replys to topics posted . but i had to jump in the fray here

[1StrongBlackMan]

45. I would agree; but ...

i hope seriously that these people get what they deservere and when rmony and his henchmen ruin this country for good , hehe .live with it.

I'd have to live through it, too; and I'm not ready for that.

I don't have a 6 month supply of non-perishible foodstuffs and water, I don't live in a place that is strategically defensible and I don't have, quite, enough guns and ammo to keep my family's food and water.

[hue]

44. Awesome & glad You were there at that moment!!

[Raster]

46. Three Cheers Indeed!

Thank you for shoving their crap back into their faces!

[chollybocker]

47. 127 cheers for 1SBM!

Way to shake their etch-a-sketches! Now wait til they get home and find out that Mittens disagrees with the Rethug Platform, authored by non other than his iron-fisted VP selection. Their heads will explode from the parsing. LOL.

[DLevine]

48. Nice job. K&R. n/t

[JEB]

49. Any GOP supporter

or apologist needs to have their noses rubbed in the stinking pile of shit that is the GOP platform. Decent human beings will snap out of it and not repeat their mistake. Those that refuse to learn are not worthy of the space they inhabit.

[WillyT]

50. Three Cheer !!!

Way ta go !!!







& Rec !!!

[seabeyond]

51. wow. wow wow wow. good for you. thanks. nt

[Curmudgeoness]

printed out right there with you. Kudos.

[calimary]

53. EXCELLENT work, 1StrongBlackMan!

BRAVO! BRAVO! BRAVO!
