[quote]If you're asking me whether I think the nickname 'Obammy' has any hidden meaning, then I really couldn't say.... [/quote] i didn't ask about a hidden meaning for the same reason you can't provide one. there's nothing hidden. (wc fields famous exclaimation: "there's an ethiopian in the fuel supply!" qualifies by comparison where as it might otherwise be most liberally categorized as "thinly veiled." what i'm asking of you is simple enough: what is its

[quote]That's racism but not terrorism. Depending on jurisdiction it might be a crime.[/quote] [quote]Another racist demonstration. However, I think implying membership in a criminal organisation is against the law.[/quote] based on those comments, i can understand why you feel terrorism is all-or-nothing simple as you seem to claim: you confuse tactic with with objectives. as long as members acquire necessary local permits and fully comply with al
[quote]Being offensive is not illegal... just look at me.[/quote] i've come to believe the dozen or so semi-standard questions used to assess mental health issues could very effectively be replaced by just one: is it at all possible you're crazy? those who agree aren't; those who most emphatically reject such a notion are most profoundly deranged. same thing is true of persons who are truly offensive, none of whom are capable of copping to it. nice try tho!
[quote]KB referencing one of my "rants" what an honor[/quote] honor? he hardly knew her. guess i coulda also gone with 'that's what she said' but this one is actually about about what you said. c'mon anthony, weak minds are waiting for enlightenment or somethin similar.
[quote]You did not link to the comment, but to the "discussion". [/quote] whether out of foolishness or malice, you misrepresented my statement by not quoting it in its entirety. what i actually wrote was this: [quote] here's a link to the discussion in question (visitors be warned: it is a foil hat zone); scroll down to reply#5.[/quote] either way, there's no question who's lying here. as you can see i was more than accura
[quote]"Mammy", not "mommy."[/quote] reluctant tho i may be to draw a comparison between your thinking and that of the intellectual dynamo who is deejay charlessc. it does appears as if you two are on the same wavelength in this instance. but while "obammy" seems to rhyme with "alabamy", "eggs & hammy", "sammy", etc., since it appears its author hath doth appeared, here's hoping he'll help to clarify this issue by explaining his inspiration and/or intent.
[quote]If people are upset by police presence and attack them, that's a crime. But if people are upset by kindergardens and hospitals and attack those, that's terrorism.[/quote] and if people are congregating peacefully in hope of spreading the gospel of "christian identity" while wearing ss uniforms and bearing swastika banners? no rockets, no kindegartens, no terrorism? how bout when they hold their rallies in a community in which a number of holoca
[quote]There is complexity in war and sometimes things are not black and white.[/quote] civilians are generally the mass that powers political protest. it's not at all unusual for large groups of angry demonstrators to damage property and their opponents or for subgroups within the larger movement to literally go commando.
[quote]It's not like Obama is doing so much for blacks:[/quote] so...that's your answer to my question about the reason obama was being referred to as "obammy"? it's becoming curiouser & curiouser. thanks tho. actually i'm also interested in your take on a proposition frequently put forward on this very site by a small but vocal number of individuals who insist racism no longer exists in contemporary america, clearly also of the opinion a good offense

[quote]I'll have to go out on a limb and say "obammy" was probbaly a combo of Obama and mommy. It's the only thing that makes sense to me.[/quote] from what you've revealed about yourself over the past several years, a whole lotta stuff seems to make perfect sense to you (at least some of which is purely patent nonsense in my opinion and a subset of that is, in fact, utter nonsense no matter who agrees or disagrees with you--but that's a whole other discussion). in this
although i haven't posted here for a while, i do occasionally manage to make a little time for myself and drop by long enough to see who's ranting about what. most recently it was yesterday morning just before being engulfed for the next 12 hours in the tedious labyrinth of winmerging two infinite groups of barely unique files. during that ten minutes or so, while enjoying the perfect lunacy that is teabag nation, i noticed someone postulating something about the president
you forgot spain where there've been rallies like this all over during the past week. dunno what obama did to them, but as you can see they're really pissed off.
[quote]It says that the British parliament is discussing whether the "special relationship" between the UK and US should be ended. The article blames Bush, of course. I am sure it has nothing to do with Obama pretending that everything Bush did was wrong [/quote] presidential pretence is clearly what's driving those members of parliament pushing this issue, but obama ain't the president who abused, exploited and manipulated that "special relationship" as well as tony blair'

[quote]All Obama has to do is ignore Ahmadinejad, NOT call him, NOT send him greetings, NOT speak with him, NOT acknowledge him in any way as representing Iran. The US can abandon the current Iranian regime just like the US abandoned the Shah when this mess started.
