  • She is a fucking idiot.

  • Maybe it will be an adult show, MILF related.

  • I always enjoy this thread.

    Palin is an idiot! (1)

    1. Average dude on the internet.

    Obama isn't an idiot.

    Bush isn't an idiot.

    Palin isn't an idiot.

    Clinton isn't an idiot.

    The idiots are those who put faith in these people. Who want them to have MORE power.

  • Obama isn't an idiot - agree
    Bush isn't an idiot - agree
    Palin isn't an idiot - disagree
    Clinton isn't an idiot - agree.

    You don't get to be president if you're an idiot. You have to have enough about you to get people to like you (or hate the other guy more). Sarah Palin, on the other hand, is responsible for some of the most stupid things coming out of American politics. Or at least she was, until Michele Brachmann came around. Apparently Palin was too moderate for the GOP voters?

  • I think people who believe she's an idiot because of saturday night live skits and left wing media attacks are the actual idiots.

    Do you believe that is the only reason why people think she's an idiot?

    Bachmann is more insane than anything.

    Pretty much.

    She has a funny accent too. That makes her a target for parody.

    And Jon Stewart puts a lot of clips up while he makes funny faces.

    Others who have been portrayed as idiots by the idiotic media include George Bush Gerald Ford Dan Quayle and Joe Biden.

    WSS

  • so list me three or four things Michele Bachmann has said that are insane.

    (there should be some cherry picked quotes from some left wing site similar to the blaze)

    WSS

  • I'm being a little hyperbolic with insane, lol. I definitely think she's out there though and has said some dumb things.

    So the belief that Palin isn't the brightest is all do to that damned left wing media, warping our fragile little minds? Every funny quote is out of context and all I hear is her funny accent...

    I'll try to get back to you at lunch, unless someone beats me to it

    quotes are quotes, the source doesn't matter... Unless they're fake (cough Cal cough)

  • The notably right wing Telegraph published a top 5 a while ago:

    http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/republicans/8648295/Michele-Bachmanns-top-5-quotes.html

  • Notably right wing for an English paper... Anyway 1, 2, 3 & 5 aren't very well phrased but like I said they've been cherry picked. What is your beef with them?

    WSS

  • Like we care what some brit rag quotes.....

  • 1 yup it seems to me the French culture has taken a bit of a hit in recent times what with the flood of Muslim immigrants rioting in the streets etc..

    2 so you have a problem with taking a look at your rulers and trying to figure out if they are promoting well being of your country and society?

    3 carbon dioxide aint methane. it's 1 of the most common gases on the planet exhale by you and me on a constant basis.

    4 don't know the context it is a coincidence and I don't know why it popped into anybody's head.

    5 correct it isn't normal and especially in the case of transgender just by its very nature it is dysfunction embodied.

    The French culture that you have in mind is one engendered by centuries of immigration. It's in a constant state of flux, as are all cultures - and languages, fashions etc. - and so to say it's 'diminishing' is to not understand the concept of a culture.

    2 so you have a problem with taking a look at your rulers and trying to figure out if they are promoting well being of your country and society?

    No, this one isn't so crazy. You always need to hold the people in office accountable. Then again, I doubt any are 'anti-america' - they just have different view to her.

    3 carbon dioxide aint methane. it's 1 of the most common gases on the planet exhale by you and me on a constant basis.

    โ€‹Cardbon Dioxide is an asphyxiate. Meaning, if there's too much of it around, it will be absorbed by red blood cells instead of oxygen, and then never be released, reducing your resporiatory ability. But we're nowhere near those levels, obviously. What's more important is the greenhouse effect of carbon dioxide that is a proven thing, and has had a proven effect on the atmosphere, as well as increasing the acidity level of the oceans (and killing fish/coral etc in the process).

    4 don't know the context it is a coincidence and I don't know why it popped into anybody's head.

    Well, this one is properly crazy. It's like saying "hitler drank water. Obama drinks water. It's probably just a coincidence. I'm just saying." Beyond that, she got the wrong president and, more importantly, the wrong political affiliation.

    5 correct it isn't normal and especially in the case of transgender just by its very nature it is dysfunction embodied.

    She's categorising anyone who is not a 'normal' straight person as having some kind of dysfunction and in need of compassion. This is at best, ignorant, at worst offensive.

  • 1 so apparently we have a different view of what is or is not positive in cultural change. Fair enough. I doubt you make that statement in every situation even though the concept of culture would be the same.

    2 ok

    3 yeah. So is oxygen. I guess water is bad because you can drown in it.

    4 I understand. I don't know what the context might have been.

    5 and we come back to the idea of whether or not something can be dysfunctional and unnatural but still acceptable.

  • I think you are wrong in calling it dysfunctional. But if you want to call it 'not normal' or something then sure. You can look at a definition of 'normal' - and one does exist, don't be fooled by people exclaiming "but what *is* really normal anyway?!" Normal is just what traits the majority of the population have. Ie, it's normal to have dark hair, it's normal to be between 5'7" and 6'3" maybe, it's normal to have only 10 fingers. There are a shit-ton of ways to define a 'normal' person, and there are very few, if any, people that fit that profile. I myself have a genetic mutation meaning my eyes are green in the middle and blue towards the outside (they're gorgeous ๐Ÿ˜‰ ). That's not normal. But do I need your compassion? No. You go to asia, and they haven't seen blonde hair, so when my OH goes, people come up to her and just stare, sometimes they try to grab it because it's 'not normal' by their definition.

  • you might try defining dysfunctional and trying to remember what the sexual act is for. At least you might admit that in transgender there's some dysfunctionality going on?

    Transgender - yeah, seems like something went wrong somewhere in the wiring. I'm a lot more hazy on that subject and its intricacies, not having any knowledge of it (primer - this is where you point out that implies I have knowledge of being gay and thus assume I'm gay; I'd be disappointed if you didn't).

    So you only have sex to have children? Man, that must be a depressing life. But if you're going down that alley, why not ban masturbation? And oral & anal sex while we're at it?

    I realize it's tough for you to live without hyperbole but if you go back and read again. See what I've said often there's a big difference between accepting something that's not normal and banning it.

    We eat for nourishment. We like to eat.

    A compulsion to eat things that have no nutritional value is dysfunctional.
