May very well be a rising star in the making:)

sounds like another radical wing nut ass hole

A big ass hole.

Ofcourse because anyone you dont agree with is an asshole.
As far as I am concerned anyone who served as long as he did can say whatever he wants and not only should we listen to him but give him the respect he deserves.
But again everyone who doesnt follow lock step with you is an asshole, but I doubt you would have the balls to say that to his face, afterall everyone is tough guy when the are at the keyboard.

I wonder what the good Major would say about waterboarding with pig urine?

Wow, you don't know me at all. Your stereo typing of me is not even close.
I would absolutely say it to him and I am absolutely not a tough guy. I think of tough guys as compensating for intellect many times. Intellect is what I respect.

Writewing, people who disagree with you are not one big bowl of sameness and what Beck tells you is BS. He has the IQ of Sarah for gods sake.
Honest take a step back and read what the posters here write. Ask questions and process their thoughts. If you disagree fine but right now you are the only regular here who approaching this forum like it was Fox central.
Lots of great guys posting from the right here, they are authentic and bright.
I am not saying you are not but if you are authentic and bright we just have not seen it yet. I am not writing this to piss you off.
Please read this in the spirit it is intended. :o

He says that he had the opportunity to join the Army and earn a commission not because the government "came down and changed the rules" but because "I realized that I was an American".

WTF?!?!? Until the Government "came down and changed the rules" black people couldn't hold a commission and served in segregated units under white officers and until the Government recognized you as an American it didn't matter what you "realized".

John

Dude, you hit a grand. I'm glad I'm not trying to keep pace.

I thought Truman desegregated the armed forces in 1948...Given the "tenor of the times", I doubt if REAL desegregation took place for a good long time after that.

I didn't think the guy was so bad. Rhetoric was a little over the top, but he was working on firing up a crowd of voters.

And no offense Noon, but you can toss a bomb with the best of 'em. Good to see you're getting healed up!!!!

And on offense WrightWing, but you certainly work overtime at agitating the tribe. As a conservative, I tend to agree with you most of the time, but you are a born again bomb thrower if I ever saw one.

Personally, I prefer sailing on smooth waters.

Please take this as a little constructive criticism form a sober, critical, and reserved member of this great forum.

Thank you.

Chas

Dude, you forgot your smiley.:rolleyes:

Regards,

D-Ray

If people don't quit bitching about race, it's never gonna happen.

Chas

To be fair, (to me :D) although my posts lean right I don't think you can find much right wing rhetoric in them. If I piss someone off it is because it is me speaking not parroting.

I surprised at you Noon, you missed the whole point.

Chas

DON'T BE SURPRISED, I AM NOT NEARLY aS SMART AS I'D LIKE FOLKS TO BELIEVE.

(I gotta get this keyboard fixed!)

You're not reduced to a touch pad, I hope?

I hate laptops.

Chas

If posting a video about a potential rising star and taking issue when somebody calls them an asshole makes me a bomb thrower then KABOOM

For a good while here I'd say this is pretty accurate. But I can recall a bomb or two.

Ok ok. The guy in this caSE IS NOT AN a HOLE, he just seems to be a parrot with narrow exposure.

Well, I'm an asshole, and nobody's gonna convince me any different!!!!

Chas

One could say the same to you....Polly want a cracker?

yes people can and do say anything

so you could say the same to me but you would be wrong

I get he feeling you really don't understand about parroting and thinking.

do you?

Listen to Chas-He speaketh The Truth...My late mama had a sayin', too, for all the Bomb-Throwers, left & right-"You can catch a LOT more flies w/Honey than you can w/Vinegar..." Miss my Mama...She's only been gone about 18 months...

I don't think we ever stop missing them. Sounds like some of what she stood for is still with you.

My mama never said anything about a box of chocolates, though.

Regards,

D-Ray

Chas, I think you're confused about the difference between being one and having one. Now the second part there, I'll just have to trust. I don't wanna see any evidence.

Regards,

D-Ray

Hear, hear! I stand shoulder to shoulder with Chas, in defense of the worlds assholes! You will never shut us up! NEVER!:mad:

Dave

Oh, and my comment on the new congressman?
Could this be Propagnada Minister Herr Becks George Washington?
If so, all I can say is "Sieg Heil!!!"

Dave

Well I went back and listened to him, not all of it as I had just eaten and did not want to upchuck. Frex, his BS statement implying that it was the government that caused the housing crisis. Certainly everyone has the right to own a home - if they can afford one. It was never a mandate that everyone be given a mortgage even if they could not make the payments. It was the brokers and the banks (can you say Wells Fargo) who wrote those crooked mortgages, then bundled them into derivatives and sold them - after they had peeled a handsome profit off the top.

Goldmann Sachs sold derivatives then sold bets that the payment would fail, rather like selling a blind man a car then buying insurance on his life. Pull your effing heads out and take an honest look around, we were not born yesterday, nor the day before that either.

Greed, greed, greed.

Or, as the saying goes, "I may have been born yesterday but I've been up all night."

John

Yes but if you were drinking all night long that doesnt help.

It always helps me.

What gets me is that guys like this & Palin are proof THE SYSTEM WORKS, yet because they are conservatives & don't pay proper fealty to the great lib shibboleths, they are persecuted/chastised no end...If Palin or this guy were Dems, they'd both been on the covers of Time & Newsweek both several times, hailed as bigger things than The Second Coming. An' I don't care what y'all say, I'd much rather see Sarah than either The Aging Hollow-Eyed Hippie from Haight-Ashbury, or Sen. "Jeez, I need a dose of Prunes, Big-Time Bad.." Reid...(grin)

Nah, the system is not working, I think the plumbing is blocked somewhere.

Sandy, Palin and Beck have been on the covers of Time and Newsweek and they have been promoted as major forces in American politics and culture. I think it's time the Right Wing just quit pretending that they're such outcasts and never get a fair shake in the media. That hound never could hunt and now it can't even find its way out of the kennel.

Nancy Pelosi is actually a Mayor's daughter from Baltimore who grew up in the middle of big city politics. She has great chops. That's why she drives you guys nuts. Harry Reid, well lemme tell ya, Sandy, the Left ain't so thrilled with him either.

John

Well, IIRC, Haight-Ashbury is in her district...An' a Baltimoron...Yeah, that figgers. An' B4 you say anthing, my parents lived in Bawlmer right after they got married, they told me all sorts of stories about Baltimore...Mainly how damn good the seafood was at Hausner's ! (grin)

Why, thank you, Sandy. As a Baltimoron, I'm delighted to learn what a high opinion you have of me and my home town.

Now, would you like to hear my opinion of Appalachian hillbillies? By the way, when y'all get divorced down there is your ex-wife still your sister? Never been clear on that. :)

John

PS: Since my brother used to live in Floyd, VA I feel qualified to express myself on this issue.

Actually, I liked Bawlmer...Then we stopped at someplace called the Maryland Crab House-My parents had been goin' on & on about how wonderful Crab Cakes were..I bit into one, & PTUI ! Damthing was FULL of shell pieces...Floyd, huh ? The definition of a "Virgin" there is 1) An incredibly ugly girl; 2) One who is under 8 yrs old; or 3) Can outrun her brothers...An' they passed a law that once you get divorced, you don't hafta be kin to yr sister anymore. You DO have to give up visitation rights to th' Hound Dawgs, tho......I STILL love the story that came out of Monroe County-down in the SE corner, adjacent to N.C. & Georgia, about the candidate for Sheriff who accused his opponent of being a "Practicing Homo Sapiens"...Stuff THAT good, even I can't make up....(grin) That's alrite, tho. You Damyankees just keep on comin' back to Gatlinburg, Dollywood, Rock City, all them places, & spendin' yor Green Money...You can laugh at us all you want...Mbwahahahahahaha..

Two places I know well. My wife's from Baltimore. As for Floyd, it's home to one of the best bluegrass venues in the country, the Floyd Country Store. Friday nights there are great.

:) Well, that was funny enough so that I'll forgive you for trashing my home town..... again.

By the way, you do know that the Federals turn the cannon of Baltimore's harbor defenses on the city to prevent insurrection, right? You probably also know that at Camden Station, where the ball park is now, a mob of Baltimoreans attacked a contingent of Federal troops troops transiting through.

To be honest, I'm not exactly sure what Baltimoreans and Marylanders are but they ain't Yankees.

John

The mountain folks from Western Maryland were Yankees, but the farmers from the coastal parts of the state were Rebels. However, the state never seceded. It contributed troops to both the Union and Confederate armies, but larger numbers to the Union.

AC/DC, if you will.

And just to be clear, I've got a helluva lot of 'neck in me. My father's side of the family hails from Western Maryland, Southwestern Virginia and West Virginia.
