Logic Isn't Knox's Forte

If you want to believe Hitler is a vegetarian go right ahead. The fact is he wasn't. If you eat ham and liver dumplings you are not a vegetarian.

Knox just proved my point. The rage and lies exhibited by the meatheads on this thread are exactly the same as what the right wing Bush lovers do to liberals. If Knox added a few vegetables to his diet he might not be so angry.

And please, it takes far more plant life to sustain livestock from feedlot to slaughterhouse than it does to maintain a vegetarian diet.

I really don't give a rat's ass what Knox eats. Why is so so concerned about my diet? What a sad, angry little man.

Dr Anonymous and Mr Alias

I usually spend my morning hours on the San Francisco Chronicle blogs flaming right wing trolls. I consider it to be my home turf, and I defend it vigorously. Perhaps because of the highway collapse I can't get on today.

There is something I don't understand about the battle of the blogosphere. Why do right wingers flood liberal websites(The S.F. Chronicle is neutral, but it serves a liberal area) to spout their banalities? I occasionally read right wing blogs, but never bother to post comments. What's the point? But even on the S.F. Chronicle or the Huffington Post, there are more angry trolls than liberals. I don't get it. Salon is a bit different, there aren't many right wingers here, so I end up getting attacked by angry left wingers.

I suppose if we all used our real names the discourse might be more civil, but it wouldn't be as honest or entertaining.

Addition By Subtraction

has a player still in his physical prime the magnitude of Randy Moss ever been traded for practically nothing (one 4th round pick)?

Tylerfaith

`

Tylerfaith, it's true that the Raiders should have been able to get more for Moss, but he had to go. At least Jerry Porter will stop pouting and step up his game. But you're right. Moss could have a monster year in New England. He's never played for a strong coach that won't tolerate any of his B.S..

Sonofabastard Beatified, Bebop-O Is The New Pope

I'm no longer allowed to use the screen name Sonofabastard on the S.F. Chronicle, which is odd, because I chose the name to post on their television blog, which is called THE BASTARD MACHINE. I now use the name Saint Snarky.

@ Jonathan Hoag

Righties are intellectual bullies and the best way to deal with a bully is to attack them without an iota of mercy and keep attacking until they are completely overwhelmed and quivering like the cowardly lump of gelatin that they truly are.

-- Jonathan Hoag

`

I couldn't agree more, however I only do battle with them on neutral or liberal sites. Most of the right wing websites don't allow dissenting view points anyway, and delete or block them altogether. The closest I came to posting on one of them was at Tom DeLay's blog. But ironically, all of the comments that day were from liberals, and I almost ended up complimenting him for posting them. But you're right, when dealing with bullies you have to be strong and overwhelm them with shock and awe. As I type this I'm listening to Ed Shultz on the radio. I think he equivocates too much, possibly trying to sell his show mre than the liberal ideals he supposedly espouses.

Semi-conscious streams, and it ain't just malarkey

The Sins Of The Father

It doesn't even matter if Oswald was the lone shooter. It was still a right wing conspiracy no matter what. The proof is, if Oswald was really a defector to Russia and not a double agent working for American intelligence, he would not have been allowed to return to the U.S.. Why wasn't he arrested?

The satanic force behind the Kennedy assassination is still with us. It was revealed to me in a dream I had, that George Bush Sr. was in on all of the evil I've experienced in my lifetime. Only God Almighty can exorcise the right wing demon from America. I know I'm crazy, but praise be to God, and deliver us from evil.

Ironic Iconic

I can tell just by looking at Glenn Greenwald's avatar that he is non-partisan. It doesn't even show his hair. He is a cut above the rest of the Beltway journalists/bloggers. Keep up the good work!

I'm getting to be a decrepit middle-age white man myself and after seeing this debate I say enough is enough. Now I'm leaning toward Barack Obama or even Hillary Clinton if necessary.

I don't share Joan's enthusiasm for Chris Matthews. If he mentions Ronald Reagan one more time I'm going to switch to the cooking channel. This is the sorriest bunch of decrepit white men I've ever seen, Ron Paul excluded. Fred Thompson is the clear winner tonight. Women everywhere are the losers.

Kaufman-Barkley Share A Little Crow

"I'll jump on the Warriors bandwagon if Golden State wins the next two games and has a 20-point lead in the fourth quarter of Game 4. But not the third quarter."

Even though I told you the Warriors were going to win, I'm still going to have to wait until tomorrow, just to make sure.
