20. LOL That's FINE
Unrec me, like I care. Oh! I shall never, ever, get over it! Oh boo hoo hoo!
I wanted to point out the logical, not emotional reasons why to rec, I care much less if you unrec as ridiculous the reason may be.

Aah, sweet suppression under such verbiage about transparency! How droll.

But even here it's all about, for many of you, popularity and spin and fuck having an open discussion if it disagrees with your emotions and changing sensibilities due to what party is in control.
That's what's important, isn't it? That's what will contribute to help to put our country on the proper path, right?

How much we've learned the past 10 years... Devo was right, as was Zappa.

If something is worthy to be discussed or disseminated, even if you don't personally agree with it --which you certainly don't have to-- it still may be important towards future discussions especially with Repukes or interboard 'arguments' (much more common here as of late) instead of stifling them.
Yet again, my point is if it should be known to edify the population, to appraise things as they really are, and especially if it a positive is spun negatively and vice versa, it should be recommended not buried! Let people debate and even decide if they wish to that War is Peace, as obviously, debatably, the Afghan war is achieving!
Burying ones head in the sand only suffocates, shouting others down only alienates them, nothing more.


Perhaps I was wrong by giving personal experience, but I really don't care what fucking page I make it to and I certainly didn't mean to give that impression. How dare I give a taste of my own experience to reinforce my point? Bah.

BFD, anyways.
My concern is that either that information, truths, spin or blatant lies are lost, ignored or undefended when they're deliberately stifled when only The Honest Truth can be used to our --The Peoples-- advantage.
All the while an astonishing number here still claim that others argue against their own self interest!

It appears I can say it until I'm blue in the face: People should have the opportunity to know legitimate information even if it affronts their oh-so-tender sensibilities!
Faith belongs in church. Action, promised action on behalf of the electorate belongs in politics; at least in a healthy society.

But no, reduce it to simply someone who comparatively rarely posts and OP's only LBN (non Faux) as attention seeking and who's life's goal is to make the freaking fleeting Main Page, that's the spirit! Woo hoo what an accomplishment! Oui, a real self promoter, c'est moi; my life would be complete!

And if you'll kindly notice, that's the level this discourse has immediately deteriorated to in the very first post. You didn't listen, you didn't debate, you just went off. How can one resist such intelligent discourse, such intellectual back-and-forth?
Now what does that have to say? Noooo.... couldn't be projection!
Sad yet amusing at the same time.

For the last fucking time: You DON'T have to agree to the content to recommend it, don't you get it? Can't you see the principle beyond a silly popularity contest on this little board among a billion other forums and blogs compared to a truly thoughtful and informed citizenry!?

I guess not. Some of y'all must be super duper VIP's! Yessir, in a Class all by yourselves.

This place is a really something, each day it seems to resemble more and more The Lord of the Fliess
only will the officer in the Navy Whites finally show up?


LOL I'm done with this.
