Is there some kind of contest for stupidest thread title going on here?
Edited on Tue Jan-08-08 04:42 PM by Bucky
What Will Happen Why Obama's Cult Persona Wears, and His Experience Is Questioned Publicly ?
. . . Right, cause up till now, no one has thought to bring up the subject of his lack of experience.

C*H*A*N*G*E* ... Who Are The Real Candidates Of Change?
. . . I D$O$N$'$T$ K+N+O+W+, who A*R*E* T^H^E^Y^ @?@

Reaping what we sow.."Iron my shirts" T-shirts on sale
. . . "Don't iron me, bro" isn't exactly viral

Obama's mentor in the senate was Joe Leiberman
. . . Yet more proof that Obama is overly deferential to more senior politicians!

What are Obama's positions on torture, habeas, Guantanamo, and spying
. . . Just a guess, but against, for, against, and for if limited to international operations, maybe?

Posting on DU has had what amount of impact on the results of Iowa and New Hampshire?
. . . I want to stop and interrupt this discussion to remind everyone what a waste of time it is to stop and interrupt discussions. See how much smarter than you I am?

Democrats are setting themselves up for another fall.
. . . ... uh...

Just who the hell are you people trying to convince?
. . . ... well...

Freudian slip? - Evan Bayh: Clinton supporters in Nev "fired up and ready to go."
. . . He's practically sleeping with his mother in that quote

Can Barack Obama be as good a wartime candidate as John Kerry was?
. . . Because not a damn thing has changed on the political landscape since 2004

Would Hillary drop out and endorse Edwards?
. . . Any second now...

women are never front-runners
. . . Of course, Gloria. The last 10 months were a dream.

Is Hillary Clinton on the way out - Misogyny stronger than racism?
. . . Folks, we have a runner up!

Will Hillary Clinton become the 'Britney Spears' of politics?
. . . Folks, we have a winner!

8. Because I fucked up
Edited on Tue Jan-08-08 04:41 PM by Bucky
Given the overall tone of reckless, hysterical Clinton and Obama bashing, I think it was an easy error to make. But it was an error. I didn't read that thread. I apologize.

(and the listing is deleted)

12. I have asked the moderators on several occasions to tombstone Rucky for that very reason
Sadly, they have this "right to free speech in a democracy" hang up that prevents them from seeing the logic of my request.

15. I've asked them to tombstone the letter "B"
Which would make you "Ucky"

14. In fairness to "Gloria", if you read the Op-Ed, you'll find it's not snark-worthy in that sense.nt

16. I read the op-ed.
She makes some very valid points that have nothing to do with the 2008 presidential race. Clinton didn't drop from "inevitable frontrunner" because she's a woman. She stumbled because (1) she's not a very good campaigner, (2) Democrats NEVER nominate frontrunners (at least not since Mondale--an exception fraught with painful irony), and (3) she campaigned as an insider in a year when the country was aching for change.

The fault lies in her stars and herself, but not in her XX chromosomes.

18. It seems your wit on that Op-ed title might need just a little editing to reflect your points.
"Of course, Gloria. The last 10 months were a dream" -- doesn't seem to have anything to do with the points she makes in the article.
