If nothing else, I think almost every DU'er can agree on one thing: FUCK NADER.

[Danger Mouse]

Nader, you stupid egomaniac.

You took GOP money in 2004 to support your run, blood money from the very people you claim to fight against.

You had the nerve to claim that there was no difference between Bush and Gore in 2004.

You have the nerve to try and say the same about McCain and Obama.

You are a disgrace. A major league asshole. You're in it for you, and you alone, NOT America. You could give a rat's ass what happens to America, as long as you get some more publicity. Don't try and tell me that he actually believes in the shit he's doing. If he were, he wouldn't have taken GOP money in 04.

McCain is a disaster waiting to happen. More than ever, we need a Dem in the White House to stop the harm caused by Bush before it's too late for all involved.

If Nader had any integrity or sense left, he'd realize how destructive he is being.

Fuck Nader...and anybody stupid enough to vote for him this year. If you didn't learn in 2000 and 2004, then you are too stupid to be helped.

[mrreowwr_kittty]

1. Plus, I hear he's a union buster and a dick to work for. nt

[Danger Mouse]

3. Raging egomaniacs are rarely very nice people.

[salguine]

37. Oh, good. "You hear". That's like Wolf Blitzer's classic "some say...". Well, I have worked

for him, and he's neither a dick nor a union-buster. You have absolutely no idea what the fuck you're talking about.

[mrreowwr_kittty]

38. Okay, thanks for sharing. Guess you're voting for him too.

Good for you.

But lookie here: http://www.realchange.org/nader.htm#antiunion

[salguine]

51. No, I'm not voting for him.

[Blondiegrrl]

61. Bob Weir said in a Rolling Stone interview that Nader was

an arrogant asshole.

I have no idea whether that's true; I'm just pointing out a source to the charge.

[Deja Q]

2. Why do that to him?

He's got cooties and might be contagious!

:wow:

[Danger Mouse]

4. He's got something alright.

[sellitman]

5. I'm on board. I have more respect for bush than I have for Nader.

I totally mean that.

[Danger Mouse]

6. I don't agree, but I can understand it. At least Bush doesn't try to hide what he is.

[sellitman]

12. Nader decieves.

Bush is right out in the open. He is waving the asshole flag.

Nader is also waving the same flag but pretends to be a Liberal.

Both are assholes. Bush is up front and honest about it.

Fuck Nader and anyone who supports his lying ass

[sniffa]

7. Dooga Dooga Dooga

[Danger Mouse]

8. Is that Nader speak?

[sniffa]

9. I think it is actually

:rofl:

Or, "how to speak to a Naderite (if you must)".

[TexasObserver]

10. FUCK NADER

[Raineyb]

32. Not even with Dick Cheney's dick n/t

[TheCowsCameHome]

11. Is it true he can see his own ass? (He has creepy eyes)

Just wonderin'...............

[Danger Mouse]

14. Yes. He sees it everytime he looks in a mirror.

[FKA MNChimpH8R]

13. What Elrond said

and then some. Nader is a pathetic egomaniacal asshole who still thinks that he matters. Do something useful, Ralph: find a pea shooter and blow your brains out.

[blondeatlast]

15. Just back from a vacation in Malaysia and this is the first thread that gets my attention! I'm almos

afraid to ask--what did the oversize ego in a really bad suit do THIS time?

Just for the record, btw: FUCK RALPH NADER.

On edit: Now I know what he did, so:

STFU, RALPH, AND FUCK YOURSELF THRICE.

(I blame my use of the profanity on 16 hours of delayed flights.)

[Danger Mouse]

24. Remember 'no difference between Gore and Bush'? It's back.

Everything old is new again, but this time it's Obama and McCain that are no different to ole Ralph.

[FKA MNChimpH8R]

44. Hope you had a nice vacation

blondeatlast. Saw Tony Bourdain's program about Malaysia and it looks like a lovely place.

[awoke_in_2003]

48. Might be nice to visit

wouldn't want to live their. Anyone over 12 must carry a biometric id smart card, and be able to produce it on demand. Plus, their official state religion is Islam, so we know how the women will be treated. Of course, you may say they have a secular government, but give it time- Islam is patient (just ask Europe)

[BlooInBloo]

16. hhaha! There were actually some DUers a few days ago arguing that Nader HELPS Obama...

HAHAHAHAHA!

[Milo_Bloom]

17. A poll was released that showed that.

[awoke_in_2003]

49. The polls also say that McSame is only

5 points behind Obama. Even if it is true that nader would help Obama he is not needed- McCain is all the help Obama needs.

[Danger Mouse]

23. He doesn't help anybody, least of all himself.

[BlooInBloo]

26. Like somebody recently said, FUCK NADER.

[Raineyb]

18. What a tool that Nader is!

All that railing he does about the two parties and yet he only seems to have one party to attack.

Go away Mr. Nader and please STFU while you're at it.

Regards

[scheming daemons]

19. He's not my type

[LostinVA]

20. Yup, we agree on this -- egomaniac

I'm tired of his every-four-year self orgy. And, it's a real disappointment, because he really could have formed a viable third party.

[Danger Mouse]

22. I think 2004 showed his true, ugly colors.

:puke:

[FKA MNChimpH8R]

45. The only thing Nader can manage is

public masturbation every four years. He has neither the guts nor the discipline to actually build a party. He's nothing but a publicity whore who loves to jack off before the few cameras that still show up.

[WoodrowFan]

21. YES!! (K&R)

[quakerboy]

25. It would have been nice

if he put his money where his mouth was and worked to create a viable 3rd party based on good governance, then used that party to make a credible run for the presidency.

He's had years to do it, but I don't see him getting any of the Senators, Congressmen, Governors, or local officials elected that he would need to work with to make a working government that would be a change from the 2 parties we got. Thus even in a year where the US pretty damn pissed at one major party, and pretty unimpressed with the guts of the other, It would take a miracle to get him to 5%. Whats the value of that to anyone?

[ulysses]

27. surely we can find more in the search for unity.

[the other one]

28. Almost. Not me. Nader is a man worthy of respect.

If assholes like you had half the integrity of Ralph Nader...

He is not a Democrat. He is Anti-Corporate. Passionately so. He is a man who lives his convictions, and its up to him if stealing from the GOparty does not violate them. He has done more for this country than most politicians already, and he would make a great president.

He makes a lousy Democrat, but that is convenient, because he is not one.

So stop crying and making excuses and go elect Obama. And when the pukes steal it again, don't blame Nader. It wasn't his fault then, and it won't be his fault now.

[salguine]

36. Amen, brother. If even a tenth of the Democrats in Congress showed a tenth

of the principle that Nader has, Bush and Cheney would be in a fucking prison cell by now. As for everyone calling him an egomaniac...None of you have the slightest idea what the fuck you're talking about. Egomaniac!? Ralph Nader has less ego than anyone I've ever known. (Yes, I know him.) He rents a very modest apartment in DC. He hasn't owned a car since 1959. After his modest living expenses, he has plowed virtually every nickel he's made into dozens of public interest and citizens' groups that he's founded over the last forty years in order to make this a better country for YOU, you self-absorbed pricks. That's an egomaniac!? If that sounds like an egomaniac to you, then I'm ashamed that I'm not as big of an egomaniac. I wish Congress were full of Ralph Naders.

[quakerboy]

43. Me too

a few Dozen congressmen with Nader's positions would shake things up quite nicely. Why the hell hasn't he bent his resources to making that happen?

[Danger Mouse]

53. Because that isn't his goal. If he meant what he said, he'd have put his efforts towards

creating a viable third party.

[BzaDem]

47. Nope.

If Nader (and idealists like you) realized in 2000 that we live in a mathematical 2-party, winner-take-all system, millions of people would be better off today.

It is absolutely his fault that Gore lost. There might have been other reasons as well, and I don't care. If 5 people commit a crime, we don't acquit one because the other four were complicit as well.

[Danger Mouse]

52. Then why did he take GOP money in 2004? Because of his integrity?

Give me a fucking break. He's only in it for himself.

[HughMoran]

29. Nuck Fader

He's just a bitter old man at this point - hmmmm, who does that remind you of?

[depakid]

30. Actually, I think you might want to get over your obsession

and stop throwing tantrums over an irrelevant candidate- regardless of whether he was right about the Democratic leadership's behavior in Congress these past 8 years.

[FKA MNChimpH8R]

46. You think think this country would have been the same under President Al Gore

for the last eight years?

If you do, you're too dumb to be allowed to vote.

Nader's masturbation cost this country a sane and sage leader for the last eight years and delivered us into the hands of an insane, alcoholic chimp.

[depakid]

57. If the "leadership" of the party hadn't abandoned traditional Democratic values

Nader (and the Green Party- which grew exponentially under Clinton) would never have had a constituency in the 1st place.

:think:

Politics 101.

[Lefty48197]

31. Nader got 95,000 votes in Florida in 2000

and Bush "won" by 653 or something like that. Thanks Ralph.

[bonito]

33. Nader rocks in my book

Fuck you.

[Danger Mouse]

54. GOP funds in 2004. Yeah, he rocks all right.

[bonito]

58. Here you go

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ralph_Nader

[Danger Mouse]

60. Uhm, yeah, he did take money from wealthy GOP contributors.

And his reasoning for it was pretty shitty.

[PurityOfEssence]

34. Hell yes; I've got at least 97,488 reasons to despise him...

(Yes, folks: that's how many votes he got in Florida in the 2000 Presidential Election...)

[opihimoimoi]

35. Ego and money is a dangerous combo...Nader sucks....

[arewenotdemo]

39. I can't believe the support that fucker still gets around here.

He's such a pathetically obvious narcissist, it's fucking unreal.

[samsingh]

40. agreed.

[Withywindle]

41. And the horse he rode in on (unsafe at any speed)

He's the Alan Keyes of the Left.

[MrSlayer]

42. How is he being destructive? He's irrelevant. No one cares about him.

He isn't putting anything in jeopardy. You seem to be unhinged for no good reason.

[Jim Lane]

50. Let's fervently HOPE he's irrelevant

His vote total crashed from 2000 to 2004. One term of Bush was enough to convince all but the most dimwitted Naderites that the "no real difference" line was garbage. (It's just too bad that that category of "the most dimwitted Naderites" included Nader himself.)

I see no reason to expect him to recover this year. In fact, he'll probably fall further.

In 2004, Nader got 0.38% of the popular vote, finishing third, a bit ahead of Badnarik (the Libertarian), who had 0.32%.

This year: I predict Nader to drop below one-third of one percent (0.33%) and to finish in fourth place, behind Barr. Nader has an outside chance of finishing fifth if either Baldwin (Constitution Party) or McKinney (Green Party) can get something going.

[wyldwolf]

55. But Barr ROCKS! GO BARR!!!

[blondeatlast]

56. "There's little difference between

Ralph Nader and John McSame (and, by extension, George W. Bush)."

[Rowdyboy]

59. I'm always happy to join in a rousing FUCK NADER! He's like a venereal disease....

Nasty, harmful and apparently impossible to get rid of.

[Independent_Voice]

62. Nader's ego

IMHO, Nader is only running this year for the same reason he ran in 2004...he knows the MSM will give him unlimited attention just because he's a Big_Name.

Much like Bob Barr, Nader is running for president simply to stroke his own political pelvis.
