The man (and I use that term loosely) did nothing but hate, hate and hate some more.
He deserves no sugar coating, in spite of his dough like appearance.
Sharpton is most definitely a dork of the highest order.
True....and still.... what glee you must have felt in making that post! How dazzling is your sting! How true your aim!
I love Republican trolls on liberal websites (and vice versa). It's such a great way to learn hundreds of ways to say "I know you are, but what am I?".
Thanks for your contribution!
"As I watched the coverage last night, I was struck by how many people said, in some form, "yeah, I guess that he a lot of bad ideas, but at least they were sincerely held beliefs." And the "sincerely held" part was supposed to forgive the oppressive nature of his work."
Excellent point.
Yup...lotsa folks in Iraq and Afganistan with sincerely held beliefs.
Lots.
....Well said.
I would buy you a drink if I could...
My favorite part of the original letter, the opening sentence....
"What you call bigotry and hatred is Biblical Christianity".....
Talk about your failed logic!....Let's turn that around:
"Thank 'Imaginary-Diety-in-the-Sky' I am not a Christain! That krazy kult even SAYS they are for bigotry and hatred! Its the BASIS of their religion, as least as practiced by its troglodyte followers!"
ah...better.
Queer National....
Martini?
Gosh..smartypants, alla youze.
I have nothing brilliant to add, other than ........gulp.....three more episodes, and then no more of this.
Damn. I'm gonna mourn this harder than Six Feet Under....and that was some mourning, dang it.
I'm willing to say THAT over and over for a fraction of that.
Say....10%?
You are the most hateful creature!
It
is
a
fucking
CARTOON...
...and ...
"Steve is a pig" cartoons are Breathed staples. Deal.
Just Deal.
You cheerless fucks on both sides of the isle need to go ..um...skinny dipping...with a cocktail, or something.
Go watch the doc. "Shame" on HBO if you want to see some REAL sexism....otherwize, kiss my freckled arse.
Well hell....now I REALLY want him to run.
I have never read a writer who actually managed to make me feel queasy just blathering on about ....well....whatever seems to pop into your "I'm kewl cuz I'm a contrarian" head.
You kinda gross me out. I don't really understand why.
Fascinating. From a distance, anyway.
Please go away?
..and while I dont agree with much RealName posts...
This last little take down made me laugh out loud.
He IS kinda right, you know.......and this agreement is coming from someone who really LIKES Salon....in spite of it.
I agree with you..what a bizarre opinion!
While not absolutely perfect...LOTR....dreck?
It IS a masterpiece.
"Norbit" is dreck.... some perspective, please.
This is........depressing.
The idea of it.
The book comes out in a few DAYS, you great git.
What kind of spaz, to use a childhood insult, does this?
Takes all kinds to make a world, I guess, but I don't understand the spoiler type.
For some reason, the whole thing actually makes me feel sort of sad.
Strange, that.
Um....Tom knows about the "Democrat" party phenom. It's use was deliberate.
Regarding women thinking these men seem to take them all as "sluts"....you respond with:
"Um, how exactly are you getting that based on the common sense advice of "Act confident. Smile. Find topics of mutual interest?"
Just curious.

Well Chris..it would be the part about getting a girl naked in less than 7 hours as the stated goal.
Dead giveaway, that.
My god, your..."work" is such a patchwork of random strangeness.
So much talent in the world...and yet space seems to always get made for folks like you, instead.
Somebody woke up all covered in angry this morning.
Poor SUV car-pooler. You are doing nice things with all your greeny terrific-ness. I mean that.
Hope you have a better day.
Anonymous Smoke Nazis....my fav.
Not EVERY non-smoker hates smokers with such passion.
Really.
I know.............many. And include myself.
Not exactly rich mooks there.
Definitely middle class mooks.
"Wrong again.
You and Heather must have grown up in the same suburb.
Firemen and policemen are pretty much all blue collar, whether they've got the criminal law degree from So-and-so State University or not.
-- ikuiku"
OH Christ....kind of hair splitting, dont you think?. I went back and forth on that one a lot...blue collar or working class, sure....fine line and depending on the area.
But...
...a character on that show in the first season sold their home for half a million......This suggests a decidedly middle class neighborhood...I don't know too many working class folks who own half a million dollar homes.
Traditional designations or no, I was speaking of those characters....on that show.
You are right, of course..but..
Again.. I will point out that I am speaking of particular characters, in a particular area, on a particular show...the parameters were there, no?
...so very very tired of stupid.
Do these morons who open and use spam...LIKE spam?
Christ..everyone speaks of spam as inevitable, when in truth its just a few idiots out there who create it...and just a small percentage of morons who make it profitable.
Kill them both.....solve the problem.
Really..we could do this humanely....quietly...
really...its for the best.
People with jaundice are a race?
wow...who knew...
thats GREAT..I mean...thats just a tiny amount of bodies to dispose of...should be no problem!
No avocado, Lavender or tea?
Life is too short!
I would rather be fat.
I have ALWAYS, always hated the word "moist". And I am as far from prude as it gets.
How interesting it is when the strangest things are shared.
