I see you like caps. Keep this observation of mine in mind while reading my reply, it will make me look less like you (i.e., an idiot who thinks that the best way to make political arguments is with typographical errors in the glory of caps) and more like, well, me (totally awesome and willing to take the piss).Originally Posted by Paladin_Hammer
You, sir, are a moron. I am going to reply to you both here and via private message, because apparently you need the words driven into your head multiple times before they make any sort of impact. You see a couple of key words in a sentence, and make a reply. You don't actually refer to what I mention, you just see the selective words and decide "HA! BILL AND RUSH TOLD ME HOW TO RESPOND TO THIS LIBERAL SCUM!"
Anyway.
KERRY DIDN'T GO TO VIETNAM! KERRY DOESN'T EVEN KNOW HOW TO FIRE A GUN! KERRY DIDN'T HAVE A GUN! KERRY SHOT HIMSELF TO GET OUT OF VIETNAM! KERRY DIDN'T FIRE A SHOT IN VIETNAM! KERRY WENT AWOL! KERRY KILLED EVERY MAN IN HIS UNIT AND STOLE THEIR HEARTS, DIPPING THEM INTO PURPLE PAINT AND PRESERVATIVES, PINNED THEM TO HIS CHEST WITH A NEEDLE, AND THEN WENT TO AN ORGY IN CAMBODIA WITH HANOI JANE!Originally Posted by Paladin_Hammer
The preceding are all claims I've heard by fucktards such as yourself. Check out Bush's service during the time if you want. Or Cheney's. Both very, very courageous and manly.

"Only one member of SBV actually served with John Kerry on Kerry's boat and that is Steve Gardner.Originally Posted by Paladin_Hammer
However, neither he NOR any other member of the so-called "Swift Boat Veterans for Truth" (SBV) served with John Kerry during the incidents that led to KERRY'S PURPLE HEARTS, BRONZE STAR AND SILVER STAR!
The remaining members either never served in Vietnam when Kerry was there (a notable example is their key spokesman and Nixon-patsy John O'Neill) or served in other boats or other positions that would provide them little or no first hand knowledge about Kerry's service. Of those who actually served under/with Kerry in his boat, 11 out of 12 fully support Kerry!
ADDENDUM: According to Naval records Kerry served "TWO tours of duty in Vietnam. He was on active duty for three years and 10 months (NOT "4 months") and was honorably discharged.""

Here's a small sampler of the goings on. Click the link. Maroon. It's worth it. Read it. Multiple times, for the big words (and, the, for) to sink in.

AND IF YOU REALLY WANT SOME MAD-KEEN SERIOUS SOCIO-POLITICAL DISCOURSE GOING ON, I HAVE A VIDEO OF A VERY GRUMPY BUSH GIVING WHAT HE CALLS THE "ONE-FINGERED VICTORY SALUTE," FOLLOWED BY GIGGLING. 1.1MB. GET IT WHILE IT'S HOT (IT SHALL ALWAYS BE HOT).

Also, for those who feel the need to point this out to me, maroon is a colour. I know. Really.

There shouldn't be the need for seniors to have to travel to Canada in order to get the treatment they need. I thought all that privatisation of health services fixed that stuff up real good for the US? Sarcasm, you know to expect it from me.Originally Posted by leatherman
As for outsourcing, you seem to have made a connection based on nothing in particular. I'm going to make a rare move - refer to Maddox as superior to me. He's made the definitive case for why outsourcing is Hitler's Uncle. The thing is, he's never talked about outsourcing. The following is about them thar immigrants stealing our jobses!
http://www.maddox.xmission.com/hatem...?p=1#CLUETRAIN
Immigrants being paid lower than minimum wage is the reason why they get hired so often by big corporations. Outsourcing is the technological equivalent of this. The reason outsourcing is, um, bad, is because companies know that it is cheaper to hire workers in countries outside of the US (India, for instance), therefore increasing profit margins and decreasing employment in the US. American workers can't compete with that because they can't be paid lower than minimum wage (one of the reasons why your "I don't know anyone on minimum wage" speech is irrelevant, I'll get to the other in a sec). Outsourcing is fucking middle management US up in the same way that underpaying immigrants fucks up the working class US, and you don't know it because you can't see it. And to you, that's evidence enough that nothing's wrong?
Not my taxes. Not yours either, unless you're making $300,000 a year or something. And why shouldn't he? Bush has put the country into a trillion dollar deficit, how else do you suggest Kerry bail out Bush's sorry mess? Raffles? A cake stall, perhaps? You know what I'm going to say here. Tax those who are so incredibly rich that they spend their money on vests made from real gorilla chests. Those damnable Hollywood liberal elite, for instance, or those horrible trial lawyers. Don't you want to monetarily smite them?Originally Posted by leatherman
