McDermott is a buffoon in general, and this event did nothing to dispel that notion.
Yeah, and he's my buffoon, too, sigh. I live in his district. Of course, we can tell from the gravy handed out that we all take quite a bit of damage from his behavior. Interesting, that function of congress, screw the other party's part of the country. How very American, eh, to "use the big stick" and use your bully-power to hurt the other guy. Just like the idiot Shrub's trying to shut down Kerry's campaign before it started. Seems like the present rightwing bigots can't stand freedom at all, doesn't it?
(Note, they aren't alone in this, but they are the dominant bullies at the minute, so they have my attention.)
Still, I'm curious why you're up in arms about it? (I agree about god and the pledge.)
You mean me, or Corplinx?
I'm just showing the anti-freedom, anti-constitution, anti-court attitude that the present radical-reactionary republican party demonstrates.
The present republican party quite obviously hates this country, they think we're too free to disagree with them, and just like Corplinx shows in his response, they will smear anyone who even dares to suggest that they might be wrong.
It's that simple, if you dare to disagree at all, the bullies come out and start calling you names. They continue to do so, like BobK and Rockook and the like, willfully lying about what you said over and over, in a willful, concious attempt to cause actual harm to the individual's reputation, if you so much as DARE to suggest that a right-wing republican might not be the best thing since sliced bread. That' show it works, even here on this board.
The evidence is all over this politics board, and is incontrovertable. Rockook's deliberate lies in the astrophysics thread, lies that he ceased in a cowardly and ignomious manner when he discovered that my identity of "jj" is actually who I really am. BobbyK's willfully misinterpretation of what I said in the draft-doger thread, Jacko's soliticitation of a sound-byte that could be deliberately misrepresented, Corplinx' portrayal of those who dare to disagree with the tyranny of the masses as doing "jack*ss stunts", they're all cut from the same cloth.
They are all, simply put, freedom-hating bullying, they are all concious, willful, dishonest, totalitarian attempts at silencing dissent, no more and no less.
The behavior of a lunatic like Rockook suggests that we aren't too far from some kind of "krystalnacht" against those who speak out against the totalitarian schemes of the american right, in that the repeated, obvious lies are made shamelessly and with the idea that they will never be taken to task, that they are completely invulnerable from any responsibility for their atrocious behavior.
Bullies, one and all. That's just what we have running the country today, people who say "do it my way because I have the gun".
Corpse, you've become nothing but a freedom-hating bully. I hope you like yourself, because I once thought there was a bit of principle hiding in there somewhere, but you've gone and become no better than BobbyK or Rockook.
