  1. Care to retract your lie? Why would I? There is nothing on the website you posted that would suggest I was lying! She approached the librarian and asked how one would go about banning books and how she would feel. If the McCain campaign wants to spin some bullshit about "rhetorical questions" and "loyalty oaths" it doesn't change a thing. Seeing so-called libertarians defending this type of blatant horseshit is the pinnacle of phoneyness.
  2. Third times a charm! Hmmm..."speculative discussions", eh? Like, "hey, what would one have to do to get some books around here?" or "hey, let's say I wanted to have some books banned. Do you think anyone would mind?"
  3. Yes, we should kill all those who are inconvenient or flawed. Otherwise, it's indicative of "bad judgement". You'd make a fine Aryan. You're one Down's Syndrome baby the world could have done without.
  4. I don't give a rat's ass if she wants to have a Down Syndrome kid. Just don't tell me that I have to!
  5. Whoa, let's not get too hasty here. Like the book banning incident, I'm pretty sure all those statements she's made in the past were purely rhetorical in nature.
  6. Have you learned nothing!? A hearty zinger or one-liner is the sure road to victory! Try an antimetabole or two at least!
  7. *cough*itsbristolsbaby*cough, ahem.
  8. Nice analysis. Now STFU and have a Mooseburger.
  9. What do you the airlines is going to be called?
  10. Hi Sarah, If by some anti-miracle you're elected, would you make saying that someone had "country dough face" a hate-crime? --Just Wondering in Bellingham
  11. I find it frustrating that people who engage in this issue from the ID side rarely seem to acknowledge the most fundamental recognition that science is a method, not a belief system. ID hucksters place scientists in an impossible position by requiring that they be able to posit an explanation for the entire mechanics of the universe. Scientific endeavor is founded on the assumption that "we don't know, but we have the means to find out". That intelligent designsters are able to point unequivocally to God because "this I believe" or "well, science can't explain it so..." is not a strength. It represents a failure in the desire to push the boundaries of human knowledge using the scientific method already at our disposal and a return to medieval systems of belief to explain the natural world. Not good. That ID seeks to discredit "science" because it can't explain the life in the first instance as it occurred some billions of years ago is patently absurd when human being didn't know what germs were 150 years ago.
  12. "McCain/Palin: This VP candidate's empty zingers and one-liners, written by an staff of rhetorical experts, delivered by a rabidly superstitious piece of cardboard are better than yours." Putting America First as usual.

    Note to self:

    Why is it so rare to hear principled secular conservatives and economic liberals criticizing their party's Faustian pact with evangelicals? Is this a case of "the end justifying the means"? Is there an assumption that so-called "economic freedoms" trump any number of other freedoms the GOP's evangelical base has shown it wants to roll back? Could any of Spray's professed conservatives shed some light here?

  15. Is there a "happy left"? Are you on the "happy right right wing"? What is all this talk of "change" coming from your side of the aisle? Here you and others have been vehemently defending the policies that have brought us to this point. And now McCain wants to "change" everything. Do you feel betrayed? What exactly is wrong that need to be changed? I was under the impression from you guys that everything was fine, that my ilk and I were the problem. Despite the bluster about reform and anti-corruption, I'm not hearing much about at whom these initiatives will be targeted mostly just celebrity rhetoric they've accused Obama of employing. What's the deal?
  16. "What if I wanted to ban some books? How would I go about doing that?"

    LIBERALS

    That may constitute copyright infringement. I'm contacting the proper authorities.
  18. I'm serious! Me and Fairweather shared a heartfelt Christmas greeting to one another once. You can look it up!
  19. Do you really think the Iraq War is a mission from God? Why did you try to have library books banned after you were elected mayor of Wasilla? Is God's work on earth really to build oil pipelines, as you've suggested? Why do you think John McCain picked you over much more qualified candidates? Over more qualified female candidates? Do you think having a pregnant 17 year old daughter and a down-syndrome baby has helped John McCain's campaign? Do you support some evangelicals' calls for a Christian based environmentalism? Why not? Why did you think Alaska should secede form the US?
  20. I bet her GOP handlers are doing a pretty good job letting her know where to start her reform and anti-corruption campaigns.
  21. I'm sure the hard-hitting Good Morning America-types granted access to Palin will be too busy talking about moose-burgers, her winning free-throw in the state championships, and her PTA experience to ask such questions. Much less asking what could be more cynical than using your knocked-up daughter to get elected.
  22. WTF? Who is using who?
