It's just that I would think, given your fire and brimstone rantings when one single individual threatens to take a particular action, you might muster a little bit more than this meepish admonishment for a media demogogue inciting thousands of his followers to take the same action en masse. But hey, partisan hypocrisy's all in a day's work around here, right? whatever, dude - you are grasping for straws.

i agree though - he'd be fun to hang out and party with

how much did they cost you?

but he doesn't inhale.

That's it?! That's all? After all the storm and fury for two fucking days about a single individual treasonously bringing down the entire system! Visigoths and Vandals at the gates! Cunt! The end of democracy! After all that, this is what we're hearing? Hold on, I'm sorry, MaryLou of CC.com equals Rush Limbaugh? Nationally syndicated with a bully pulpit reaching millions of listeners, with the ability to mobilize thousands? Equals? If there was ever any doubt before that you two are the biggest wankers around, your "apology" cinches it. Thanks. 1) Rush isn't here. Marylou is. 2) Nobody is defending Rush here. Marylou was defending her actions, and others were supporting her. When everyone agrees, there's not much to say, now is there? The fact is you fucks were expecting FW and myself to be hypocrites and defend Rush. Sorry to disappoint you. Wrong is wrong, and Rush is no different than Marylou in this case.

do you really think he is a "marxist" who wants to establish a "marxist" government? i'm not so sure.... maybe we can ask him: hey prole, are you a "marxist" who wants to establish a "marxist" form of government here in the US? Cocoa, why are you trying to ruin my fun?

He needs to be waterboarded.

Which candidate would you pay the most to see stoned? I gotta go with Hilary on this one.

Guess you guys were bored with the primary results tonight.

nah, you're right, I was out of line. Shit, your bustin my balls over here, and we haven't even had a date yet We all say crazy shit here - it's Spray.

yer seemingly a pretty smart fellow, so i don't understand why you are missing the point so badly. Marx didn't so much have a good idea (as if his thoughts might be reduced to one idea); he had many ideas, and even more, he had many observations, ones that were cogent, perspicuous, insightful, and quite telling. again, try not to simply view marxism as a prescription to a malady, but rather an observation of events, for admittedly, it falls terribly short as a guide to behaviour. There's a profound difference between you and Prole. Your post indicates intelligence and critical analysis. He's just a fucking Marxist, which has less to do with a study of what Marx actually wrote and meant, and more to do with establishing a form of government which we've seen many times.

Of course I'm opposed to it - even if I never have a chance in hell of being that rich.

that again would be the misappropriated prescriptive side. see, there is a difference. byenow. yeah, yeah, Marxists had a good idea, it's the application that failed. But Prole wants to try again. Just one more time. The experiment has been tried enough, as documented in the reference above. Only a moron like Prole fails to see that. Unfortunately the world is full of Proles.

wow. harsh. antagonistic. very very angry. I'd say another tragedy is that there are people so stupid that they cannot see that "Marxism" was and is, for the thinking person, mainly descriptive, not prescriptive. it's an immensely rich avenue of inquiry and discourse. where i fall off is when people endorse its barely formed prescriptive theoretics, without acknowledging its tremendous short-comings and misapplications. Don't bother. wouldn't know a marxian analysis from a hole in the ground, much less what you're talking about. Pretend your writing for the History Channel or one of those little evangelical comic books. A little reading for you Prole. Choke on it.

the truth

...an oft quoted "middle passage" number that is utterly ridiculous. Anyone who believes this has big problems with not only math, but truth. Now is the part where you fall back on, "yea man, so what man, are you trying to say that four thousand, or forty thousand, or whatever, man, that that was ok? Is that what you're saying you right-wing bastard!!!!!! Huh???? That quarter-and-a-half you did at Whatcom Community College was just enough to make you a total dipshit without a fucking clue. The real tragedy is that anyone is so fucking stupid in the modern world to turn to Marxism considering the 100 million life body count that that failed philosophy has wrought on humankind in less than 100 years.

I keep looking up and down the posts in the thread. where are the female posters? no glossy photos. airbrushed. nothing. it's false advertising

this is spray. no climbers here

those chix may be able to walk in those shoes but they'd surely have broken ankles or some such w/o the TR they'd be hotter if they gained a few pounds.

maybe we should forciby evict people who live alone in large houses. old grandmas, single folks, etc. the government can pay them a "market price". then young families can take their homes to live in. the government can provide these profligate planet killers some fine high-density living somewhere in the urban center.

I don't understand the problem. Can't we all just get jobs on small farms? edit: I guess not. Then how would we afford our ~5000 sqft homes? You really think 4000+ sq ft homes are causing the urban sprawl in King and Snohomish counties? Try 1700-3000 sq ft homes.

sprawl is increasing because the population is increasing - births + IMMIGRATION. Are you opposed to population growth from these two factors and working against them? Also, as we extend our lifespan, we will have more people alive at the same time.

Regarding the lights at night image. Seems we should all start learning to raise with the sun and sleep at sunset? OK, tough in the winter (unless we want to sleep 14+ hours a day). But perhaps there should be controlled brownouts? No more nightclubs, concerts, and anything that burns/wastes energy at night? NO more street lamps, lights on at the office, etc? I'm sure every environmentally conscious person here would go along with that right? To save the planet. And while we're at it, no more escalators and elevators.

There you go again, with the same BS argument. You work all your life and save your paychecks and amass well over $4 million and therefore your heirs pay an estate tax? Estate tax is overwhelmingly applied to long term capital gains. Furthermore, Gary's argument about double taxation applies: property taxes, income taxes, sales taxes, etc. may all be argued to be double taxation. and there YOU go again. we have a fundamental philosophical disagreement. deal with it. grow up for once and acknowledge that.
