The more people I piss off the better a job I’m doing… Quack!
Veg, you’ve been posting lots of attacks on me lately. Have I been getting all whiny and pissy about it?
Sasquatch is having trouble following along here. He thinks I’m trying to attack Bush or flog the left wing viewpoint. Perhaps you do too. If you can’t see the difference, it’s not my fault.
What I did not say was that “we should have” or “it would have been better if” or anything else representing a left versus right value judgment. For example, it would have been very easy for me to say “we should have invested that money in defense instead of attacking Iraq.” I did not say that because that is not what I meant.
However, that is what is seen and that is how the return comments are slanted, and that is inherently unfair to me. If I wanted to flog left ideas as better than right ideas, I would have done so.
Again, if you can’t tell the difference, and simply want to jump in and attack for no reason, feel free.
Just call me Donald until you learn to read. I really don’t mind.

A) I have broken your balls about this since I first started reading your posts, which is maybe going on a year and a half now.
B) The fact that you never take a side but simply post some alternative ideas is exactly what pisses us off. You think we are that stupid that we need you to come in and inform us that there are other alternatives? I don’t get how you think we are so close minded we are here on fucking T-Nation aren’t we?
and C) Every one of your little informative little posts, is bringing up ideas that go against current conservative ideas, or at least 90-95% of the time. So maybe you just think the conservative bunch of guys here are close minded and the more liberal types look at the issues just fine on thier own, so you need to come in and save those of us because we obviously only watch fox news?
ok and D) when you do your little thingy’s it gives off this tone of " oh you little simpletons, why do you make me watse my time teaching you how to think". And you know what, with a room full of testosterone laden red blooded males, quite a few of them are gonna want to, as rainjack puts it, knock your teeth down your throat. So obviously if you treat people like they are morons, they are gonna get a bit ornary towards you and from that point on they are gonna have this filter on everything you say to a point where if you did post something worthwile it’s not even gonna get read. You dug the hole, nothin I can do for ya now.

you okay, Veg?
Would you like a tissue Veg? I mean, I know it hurts that someone dares to post something that isn’t the same as your line of thinking, but holy shit, get over it.
Great. Good job!
Yes, I know. Don’t post alternatives. Stick to the conservative talking points. Uh-huh. You are on T-Nation, therefore, you are open minded. Uh-huh. Is there a point to this one?
I’m detecting some type of sensitivity or insecurity here.
You think conservatives don’t slam the thinking of non-conservatives every time they post? Holy shit, this is more of the pot calling the kettle black.
I’m sick of this whining bullshit. Grab a sack and take your criticism like a man. Every time someone opens there mouth on the politics forum someone slams a talking point down their throat.
You think this is my game alone. Just grow a pair and stop crying to me about it.
I’m hearing more estrogen than testosterone in your posts. So, I’m supposed to give a shit about this? Maybe I want to knock the teeth down the throats of all the morons that can’t read.
What? Liberals can’t be agressive? Only conservatives are allowed to be aggressive and opinionated? Deal with it. I’m slinging what I’m receiving. Don’t like it? Go cry to someone that cares.
Alternately, let people point out alternatives and discuss their merits without resorting to such bullshit.
Sigh (yes, its on purpose this time especially), I’m so tired of people that can barely read lecturing me on the debating antics in the politics forums.
Threaten me some more. I’m quivering.
Vegita,
You and some of the other posters keep referring to someone named “vroom.”
Who is “vroom?”

vroom, are you admitting you’re a liberal?
After all that time wasted fighting with zeb about it?
Are you quivering in fear or anticipation? If it’s fear, I can’t help, but if you’re quivering in anticipation, PM me and I can suggest a few web sites you might really enjoy!
vroomie, did you just say you were hearing more estrogen than test in Veg’s posts?
Huh. That sounds like a talking point to me.
Elk’s used that same line, and I’m pretty sure that hefty guy that thinks he’s God’s gift has used it too.
I like how you guys try to use that as an insult.
I thought in the liberal world we were all supposed to be full of sensitivity and caring and stuff?

Jeff, I don’t know, maybe I was having a nightmare or something. There was this guy in my dream who was thick as granite, and the worst part was, he was insistant on calling everyone else thick. At first I tried to reason with this guy and show him that he was being a bit hypocrytical, but it only got worse, the more I got into it with him, the less intelligent and angry he got. Phew! I’m glad it was just a dream and I don’t really have to deal with someone like that.

when you say thick as granite…
I don’t know, maybe I’m not as liberal as some people like to think? Does it really matter to anyone?
Blah blah blah.
If anyone has something to say than lets hear it. Otherwise, can we let this tired old thread die a peaceful death?
Please note the terms being used. “Liberal alternatives” = complaining, criticizing, making snide comments about W.
algore is MY president!
