Pssst... hey, GDP fishbowl

[no name no slogan]

Did you know that the rest of the world has not only NOT HEARD Hillary's "endorsement" of McCain, but they don't give a royal shit about it, either!

FYI: most undecided voters don't spend 24/7 watching cable, or read self-important assclown's blogs on the internets, either. In fact, 99.9999% DON'T REALLY GIVE A SHIT about what Hillary said.

We now return to your regularly scheduled flamefests.

1. Hell, I was in a room of 5,000 Democratic delegates, for both candidates, and neither the

McCain flap, nor the "monster" flap had any traction.

What I'm hearing is Democrats want to see another debate. Especially one where they talk extensively about what needs done in this country.

[no name no slogan]

2. This whole fucking forum is on crack

my experience has been just like yours. People IRL don't give a shit about any of that crap. They also want to see more debates.

3. Really there is another thread by someone saying that 60 minutes is leading with it

and on Fox Beltway Boys they said that it would be the most prominent and heavily used part of McCain's General Election TV commercials. They specifically called it Clinton's endorsement of McCain.

Oh and by the way that famous commercial in 1964 with the atom bomb by LBJ was run exactly once. It lay dormant for a few days and then it was the discussion of the ad that became a significant factor.

Of course I cannot be sure because I am not clairvoyant. Although . . .

5. Well, there you go.

I guess eventually, if it's pushed hard enough, people might talk about it as they pay $3.50/gallon at the pump and almost double for groceries.

But for most, it's not a pressing matter.

8. where are you able to get gas at $3.50!!!

lol

12. Flyover country, my friend

Just bought gas $3.03 a gallon in St Paul, MN. And that's high.

4. Why do you have Joe Lieberman in your icon?

:eyes:

[no name no slogan]

9. Why do you have Karl Marx?

Because it pisses people off who can't take a joke?

[IndianaGreen]

16. I am a Marxist, that's why I have Karl Marx!

Do you enjoy pissing people off? Do you tell your friends what a great time you had getting all "them libruls" fighting with one another?

[no name no slogan]

20. Um, no. But I DO like to chide those who take themselves WAY too seriously

But what I'd REALLY like to know how you can be a Green and a Marxist at the same time. Greens eschew heirarchy and structure, while Marxists are dogmatic about The Apparatus. Or maybe you're just somebody who's taken a couple political philosophy classes and enjoys a little dilletantism, who knows.

[IndianaGreen]

24. I am not a member of the Green Party and I do have issues with the anarchists

that are running that party.

[grantcart]

21. I though you were in to beards

[IndianaGreen]

25. I love men with beards

but then, considering my Sephardic religious background, it shouldn't come as a surprise.

22. Are you aware that there is a lieberman avatar in regular set but the picture was changed to...

"image removed due to 3rd party candidacy"

6. In years past I may have believed you

I can't get away from politics these days, though. Neighbors flag me down to ask, "Did you hear what Hillary said?!" People discuss the primaries in the grocery stores, at work, at the Post Office. My 16 yo knows more about this primary than I ever di when I was her age. Don't kid yourself, more people are awake from their slumber than ever before.

[no name no slogan]

10. My friends talk politics, too

but we talk about ISSUES, not the bullshit "he said, she said" that passses for "debate" these days.

[Emit]

19. *zing!*

Ouch.

So then, why aren't you posting on the ISSUES rather than another flamebait post on a 'he said, she said' topic? Can't you see we have enough of these bullshit threads that attempt to pass for 'debate' around here? :shrug: ;)

[theredpen]

7. What people need to hear is Lee Mercer's platform (all three)

[no name no slogan]

14. To prove America is America

National and international

[ProSense]

11. Maybe you've been here too long. A lot of people have, even in other countries. n/t

[no name no slogan]

13. No. I've been avoiding the GDP cesspool for the past week

People in the real world don't give two shits about the crap that passes for "debate" around here.

[ProSense]

17. You're more than wrong. They also don't approve of Hillary's negative campaign.

See the exit polls.

[no name no slogan]

18. Heh. The Democrats at my convention yesterday would beg to differ.

I was at a county unit convention yesterday (where delegates are elected to the state convetion), and believe me, THEY DO NOT GIVE A SHIT about what goes on here.

Real World > GDP.
