thegame346 Posted September 27, 2010 Share Posted September 27, 2010 You actually came up with this yourself? Doubtful. You sound like Olbermann. No I sound like a person who is tired of seeing individuals base the merits of a president off non factor bullsh!t. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimmy Leeds Posted September 27, 2010 Share Posted September 27, 2010 No I sound like a person who is tired of seeing individuals base the merits of a president off non factor bullsh!t. Then you must have been quite vocal from 2000 until 2008 with the unprecedented levels of personal attacks against GWB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought they were mostly attacking him for starting 2 wars at once....Iraq under false pretenses. Didn't hear people attacking his personal life...

MantaRay Posted September 27, 2010 Share Posted September 27, 2010 ....and the one who claims no lib bias in the media............even after they've collectively admitted it. LOL. They have "collectively admitted this" according to Faux News. Leeds loves to blame the "magic unicorns" for his own willful ignorance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although, I think you magic running slippers would be too small for me. this is exactly why that rally is a waste of time ... The rally is needed. The only thing that is a waste of time is me arguing with a parrot. Bon jour! Edited September 27, 2010 by MantaRay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Devils Dose Posted September 27, 2010 Share Posted September 27, 2010 you see.. you're proving my point .. no amount of peace signs -pot smoking or singing kumbayah will change anything ever. I must agree with this. If progressives (I'm assuming that they'll be the main attendees of this event since they generally like Stewart and Colbert more and especially because this rally is being billed as a counter to Beck's) come away from this feeling energized to spout attacks like Manta's on Jimmy, then the whole effort was futile. That is unless it really is just about comedy (I never really got a consensus on that). If we're going to reach a higher level of dialogue, where we can have meaningful discussions, then these distractions need to be (voluntarily) ended.

MantaRay Posted October 31, 2010 Share Posted October 31, 2010 (edited) I watched it and was very, very good. It drew 215,000 compared to the Fox News/Beck event which drew 87,000. http://www.cbsnews.com/8301-503544_162-20021284-503544.html Edited October 31, 2010 by MantaRay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DevilNurn Posted November 1, 2010 Share Posted November 1, 2010 For those who attended. How was it? Was sanity restored to the country? I went. I liked it, and it was a cool event. I mean the music and comedy was so-so, but Jon Stewart's speech at the end made it better. I really just loved being in the atmosphere...with 200,000 people who were pretty like-minded, and lots with internet background...it was just a fun event to meet people and have a great time. Fun day, and actually pretty simple all things considered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

squishyx Posted November 3, 2010 Author Share Posted November 3, 2010 Just a gratuitous slap: Just a pointless video: Most people have probably heard the term "Keynesian" at most once in their life in a basic economics course in high school X number of years ago. This is no different then when the Man Show convinced dozens of women to sign a petition to "end womens suffrage". It's funny but ultimately proves nothing other than you can trick people by being clever with words. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is no different then when the Man Show convinced dozens of women to sign a petition to "end womens suffrage". It's funny but ultimately proves nothing other than you can trick people by being clever with words. As a current senior in high school, I can tell you that had I not become interested in politics as early as 8th grade, I would have less than a flying fvck's idea of what a Keynesian is. Furthermore, I'd be willing to wager that I'm around one of at maximum eight in my class that might know what it is. This is out of a class of just about 600 students. Just giving your claim a little perspective, although I might also be giving claim as to why the public school system sucks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thegame346v2 Posted November 3, 2010 Share Posted November 3, 2010 I tuned into the rally online and was initially disappointed with 45 friggen initial minutes of music. I don't mind a song mixed in between the comedy skits but to start it with damn near an hour of music most of us couldn't care less about really ticked me off. The rest of the rally was great though. Had me in stitches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
