Jacob Sullum,

Ouch! Better watch out! Now that you've insulted their President-Savior, Mona, Shannon Love, etc. will be all over you like stink on shit! They'll hold a prayer tent meeting I am sure and try to cast the "demons" out of you! Then they'll fondle some snakes and yell "Hallelujah! Praise Bush!"

*chuckle*

Alas, the self-anointed Guardian of Truth, G. Gunnels, Esq., is not above the ad hominem when it serves his purpose.

Hey, Chuckles.

I'm not sure, but I think you just surpassed your record for pointlessness.

|9.10.04 @ 3:15AM|#

joesux,

Oh no! An ad hominem! *curses*

spare us,

Blogging about the pointless nature of blogging is pointless. :)

joesux,

BTW, someone with the nickname joesux shouldn't really be complaining about ad hominem attacks. :)

joesux, etc.,

Besides, you should have just immediately realized as a native Southerner I was just channeling my inner Zell. :)

Gary, will you be my daddy?

|9.10.04 @ 3:46AM|#

South of France, maybe....

|9.10.04 @ 3:59AM|#

joesux,

Do you like rim jobs?

Charles D' Ghoul,

Listen fucktard. I am not French.

I was born in Singing River Hospital, which resides in Pascagoula, Mississippi. My family (my mother's side) has lived in Alabama since a portion of my family migrated their in early 19th century (this was back when Alabama was the "frontier"), mostly in Baldwin and Mobile counties. The Nelson side of my family (my mother's) landed in North Carolina in the 1650s and helped to found Beaufort, NC. You can see the graves my Nelson ancestors in Beaufort, NC, along with the Nelson house, if you're interested.

Well, I was born a poor black child . . .

Navin Johnson,

I was born a poor white child. :)

Well, we've seen joesux, etc., try to cast their voodoo "I'd Take A Double-Headed Dildo All The Way Up The Ass And Into My Intestines For The Republicans" magic; but we're still waiting for our stars Mona and Shannon Love. :)

To borrow a phrase that my alma mater used against its rival:

joe may suck, but joesux swallows! ;->

|9.10.04 @ 4:47AM|#

thoreau,

joesux is just Bush's boy toy. :)

|9.10.04 @ 4:58AM|#

Daddy, how, with your omniscent powers, have you inferred that I'm pro-Bush? One may fairly guess that I'm anti-joe, and possibly following, pro-liberty. Beyond that, I am definitely anti-blowhard and recognize that this board is not a rigorous debate nor a courtroom. I look out for ego-emotional pronouncements wrapped in a flowing cloak of logic. Having magnanimously volunteered your family history, clearly you are the One True Savant.

I'm not much for films about gladiators, either.

Seeing Gary's lineage explains why he took so much offense to the missing R a couple of weeks ago. I'm not positive about West LA, with cosmopolitan Mobile and the beach condos in Baldwin, but I know how they feel about those kind of people in East LA.

|9.10.04 @ 6:23AM|#

joesux,

I don't need to infer it; I know it. :) Do you bite your lip when Bush gets rough with you? :)

As far as bloviage is concerned, you're the king of that; just sample one of your fights with joe for a demonstration of such.

Jesus I'm trying to wake up with a little coffee and a donut and I find out I've stepped into the zoo with monkeys throwing shit at each other.

Douglas: Grab a turd and join the fun!

|9.10.04 @ 9:53AM|#

Douglas Fletcher,

Yeah, grab joesux and throw him about the cage.

It's like this: the man in the street flip-flops. The reason for this is that the man in the street is so critically uninformed about most things beyond his own experience that he tends to believe whoever he listened to last. That is a more or less unavoidable fact of politics. There will be times when the man in the street believes a great many things which are manifestly not true. This means that in the short term, politicians have to flip-flop too, successful ones, at least. Of course, in the longer term, heaven help a politician who is so foolish as to cause the man in the street to become educated about public policy. There is an old maxim: "Remember that the cheering crowd would cheer equally loudly at your execution."
