Re: Another reason not to vote for Mitt Romney
Message:
Mitt was a high school bully, even his high school friends admit that. He needed to form a posse so that he could bully a kid who was different. We all remember what high school bullies were like. Do we want a high school bully for our President?

No we want the one who admitted in his book that he spent high school smoking pot and snorting cocaine.

Re: Another reason not to vote for Mitt

There are a lot of reasons not to vote for Mitt. There is one big reason to vote for him. Obama is just that bad, that removing him is more inportant.

Written by: Jay on June 11, 2012 4:19 PM

Pathetic that people would vote for one psychopath over another when there are far more palatable choices.

Re: Another reason not to vote for Mitt - HEY COPY
Message:
Liar. Learn how to read. He didn't just "pull over his classmates" according to the witnesses in the article.
If you really believed what you said, you wouldn't sit there and lie to the hydra.
Hey, copy, he admitted that he's lied about Obama bullying people and that it means nothing to him. He also has lied about Romney and what he actually is accused of doing.

What he did isn't what constitutes it being a prank or not but rather whom he targeted and did it too...his friends.

It was a prank and I think it is funny that it's trying to be exploited.

Jay has no proof - now he's being a baby
Message:
Jay has posted many times about Trayvon Martin and how he dressed and how it was OK for George Zimmerman to tail him.

He also pointed out that the "

I posted this article, and jay either is too stupid to read or just wanted to call me a racist so bad, he attributed the words to me.

http://www.thegrio.com/specials/trayvon-martin/...

He then lied and said that I called Trayvon Martin a "thug," (I never did) and that I said that his appearance made him a thug or something like that.

(I have condemned that very thinking several times, and called it racism. "If someone looks like a young black man, they get immediately labeled "suspicious."

That's racist.

Written by: TheProf on March 28, 2012 3:01 PM )

When in fact, Jay is the one who said that his appearance was a possible excuse for George Zimmerman:

"CNN had a REAL 17 year old Trayvon Martin picture and he looks A LOT different than the 14 year old in the football uniform.

The bottom line is Zimmerman probably did not murder Martin.
Written by:
JAY on March 28, 2012 3:19 PM "

That's not edited, that's EXACTLY as he posted it.

So when you look at the TRUTH and the FACTS about who has said what, you can plainly see that JAY is the one who has said his appearance is the basis for his changing opinion of what happened. I NEVER called Trayvon Martin a thug, Jay can't and won't prove it.

So Jay - I ask again - do you have proof of your assertions? Or are you content with everyone seeing you as a blatant liar?

Are you a man or a chicken, Jay?

Message:
...thanks for the low-hanging fruit. I mean, it's frighteningly easy to prove you're all bigoted a-holes. ecphan wants to marry children, Jay just thinks he can lie and it turns true even if he has no reason for it (both, Jay? Really? Pathetic try.) watchingthefraud - you are just completely overmatched. That's why you have to attack the messenger, you have no other ammo in your intellectual gun.

If you have to invent these rules and excuses, you're prejudiced. Stop spinning and justifying. Your version of marriage isn't the only version, so you can't ban the ones you don't like because you happen to be in the majority. It's simply denying someone a right because it doesn't fit YOUR narrow definition. You're a bigot if you're for this.

Re: ban same sex marriage
Message:
Your assumption is flawed. There is no difference between black and white men or black and white Women. It is wrong to treat Blacks differently than Whites because there is no difference between them.

However, there is a physical difference between men and women. This means there is a difference between the marriage of a man and a woman compared to a same sex marriage. They shouldn't get equal treatment because they are not equal.

Marriage is referred to as matrimony. Marti refers to motherhood. There is an obvious disconnect between motherhood and gay couples.

Keep marriage defined as being between one man and one woman and allow gay couples to have a civil ceremony - but not a gay marriage.
Written by:
ecphan on May 10, 2012 8:24 PM

Your definition is fine for your church, but not for a government where they have to deal with people who are wired differently than you. So unless you're still wanting to force your backwards (and false) religious morals on EVERYONE because you're an intolerant bigot, you have to let it open for every set of adults who wants to marry.

You still lose.

Which is worse, intolerance for bigotry or intolerance for a race or gender or sexual orientation?

If someone came on here bashing, for example, Christians for being terrorists, would you just sit back and say, "well, I should tolerate his opinion!"

I think not.

Oh Bull cr@p. The safety and security of the nation is at stake. This kind of reckless speculation needs to be stopped. It's like the megabanks are skimming off the top. They bet high gas prices are coming and because they do so, high gas prices come. They become an unnecessary middleman.

Speculators do nothing but make money at the expense of everyone else in the nation.

Re: Let's recap:
Message:
Prof, sorry but it is you that make no sense. If someone says any of those things how can they be racially based. There is enough real racism in the world without people like you making up racism where it is not happening. All of those things you say could be said about people of any race or said by people of any race even about someone of their own race.


Now if someone said "look at those Asian thugs dressed in hoodies with gold teeth they must be criminals because any Asian who looks like that must be up to no good but a black kid dressed the same way is probably a nice young man" would be making a racist comment. At least in my opinion.

Romney's plan will increase spending, increase the deficit, continuing to make things worse. I don't see how that represents hope or change.

But if insurance is meant to supplement paying for healthcare (it clearly has become that now) then it should be the decision of the patient and doctor over that of the insurance company and especially the employer.

I thought this wasn't just about contraception? Oh well, only when it suits you or conalma, I guess. Because all the dogma you posted about 'respecting sex' and all that only counts if you're a man, I guess.

Anyhow, if it was ONLY being used as contraception, then you'd have an argument. But people were being denied coverage no matter how it was used.
