My take on 2012

[formerlurker]

Appears I went to bed just when the party was getting started.  Sorry I missed it.

Paulbot?  Oh my yes.   

[Traveshamockery]

It's fun to watch how liberals and ronbots come here with all the niceties, try to play nice, and when their "facts" are challenged, they turn into sniveling little crybabies who want to take all their marbles and go home. 

Calling Cindie the "C" word reveals his true character.

I just read that article. The author seems to feel that when Clinton was trying to broker a Israeli-Palestinian peace, it was counteractive to the issue. It kind of shows of how ignorant the author is since the Palestinian conflict is what inspires Jihadists the most to destroy American interests and people. Conservatives can say "wag the dog" when he shoots cruise missiles into Afghanistan, but then afterwards display him "ineffective" as the author describes.

Well, they've pulled the trigger on you so you're no longer an issue here, but I have to comment that your ignorance is staggering.

The premise of the article is, Billy Jeff was so consumed with HIMSELF and his political LEGACY that he couldn't be bothered to deal with terrorism beyond utter a few strong words, followed up by maybe a cruise missile attack or two.

Being ignorant is one thing, but being willfully ignorant is another thing altogether.

You will slink off into your own little wormhole where you will undoubtedly infest others with your pseudo-sense of pontifical pointlessness.

That's probably a good place for you to be -- until you decide to climb out of mommy's basement.

Wow, what a dick.

I think he might have just been full on retard, fwiw.  I don't think even the ronbots are stupid enough to advocate socializing production as a means of price control.

He was touting the usual 'communism was just not done right' talking points. He is no ronbot. He is a full on leftist.

Yup, that.

I think I hit a nerve...called a bitch & a **** in one post. For an insult I didn't even make! I'm better than I thought!

He's one of those sensitive artist types.  You hurt his feelings.

He's gone? Oh drat! I was following this the other night when dunetard was on but it was bumping 100 degrees and I just wanted to turn in. My oh my the self styled academic wizards get so verklempt when they feel their intellect has been challenged, don't they?
I had a vision of him sitting in his domicile, not his parent's basement though. For some reason I pictured him in the attic apartment of his political science professor's home, unwelcome even at his parent's house during the summer between semesters. We don't send our kids off to college hating America and waving Chairman Mao's little red book but an awful lot of them wind up that way. Methinks dunetard is one of them, no longer willing to approach his backward conservative folks back home.

[CG6468]

Wow, what a dick.

I think I found his picture.

[ReaganForRushmore]

If Dune's dad was a civil servant, thank you for your service. You worked for the taxpayers of your fine city,
and were duly compensated. You did a great job. Your son, however, is a stain on your family name.

He could not debate in civil manner, much less in a Sybil manner.

You should sit your son down and tell him that he is a master of what he says and a slave to what he has said.

He owes an honest and forthright apology to women for the lack of manners and using language that I'm
very sure his mother would not approve of.

I find that most ronbots from the blue states are hard core leftists who embrace isolationism (which he clearly does).

Sounds a lot like a certain Ronulan from a former board we posted at, eh?  Although thankfully, the little drooling moron of which I speak has been quiet thus far, but it's still early.

Damn, I take a couple of days off to spend working around the house and have some quality time with the family, and this loser comes in and shits on the carpet, AND scoots on it?  And calling Cindie out like that?

Dearest, I think our ex-troll might have been a Julia Stiles fan, if not Julia herself.

[Ptarmigan]

Ok first of all you stupid, bitch, my father was a model civil servant. And I never said he went for the lowest bidder. In fact, he got the best quality for the lowest price with never being a battery incident in over 30 years on his watch.

Good for your husband. He worked in the private sector, hoorah. My father did a ton of good work for the city and could have made double in the private sector but loved working for the public and benefits.

In fact people like your husband, my Dad is their boss. Don't talk shit about my Dad again, ****.

What's your problem? 

[NHSparky]

What's your problem? 

Other than the fact he couldn't get laid in a women's prison with a carton of smokes and fistful of Roofies?

[olde north church]

Ok, let's be super clear who I am referring to.  I am NOT referring to the drug addict, or the guy with the back disc problem who is a little depressed.  Not referring to SSI, and SSDI.  

I am referring to those with severe autism, downs syndrome, CP, and other debilitating disabilities.  Those who CANNOT live on their own.  Those with a functioning capability of a toddler.  Those people.

Without Medicaid they would be forced into institutions:

http://www.thearc.org/page.aspx?pid=3232

I am a fiscal conservative who strongly believes that safety nets should be funded for these specific individuals -- our most fragile residents of our country.

Medicaid needs a major overhaul -- that is for certain.  However it is the person with severe disabilities who seems to be the ones who suffers, while the deadbeat losers of society don't miss a check.

I'm on SSI.  I don't consider myself to be a deadbeat loser after having my wealth confiscated every week from my paycheck for 25 years.  Well that would be except for those months I was out on state disability due to a seizure disorder related to a cerebral AVM.  A prenatal medical condition that wasn't discovered until I was 27 years old, although it had impacted my life quite a few times prior to that but I had no idea what was happening.
The impact on my personal finances between my 27th and 34th year was devastating.  It was extremely detrimental to any career I began.  How my marriage survived during the approximately 4 year bureaucratic process is beyond me.
All that for the princely sum of $1100/month.

That explains.

Isn't it past time for this son of a bitch to be gone?

Oh it doesn't bother me, I'm wearing my big girl panties. Some men are just sexist pigs and can't stand being shown up by a girl. I have to admit I was kinda surprised at the vitriol, especially since my comment was directed to him and not his father.

[CG6468]

Ex-troll?

I think not. He's an all inclusive troll.

SSI is for indigent who have not worked, or have not worked long enough for SSDI.

SSDI is for those who have paid into SS and become disabled.

The safety net I refer to is for those who are severely impacted with a cognitive disability (either by IQ or functional IQ), and/or are medically fragile.

They are coming around, you are right about that.

I think Scoobie brought the 100 degree weather with her, I hope she brought us an easy winter this year too (yeah I know, ain't happening).

I worked a "real job" from age 16 to age 41.  I'm almost positive all paperwork/payments are listed as SSI.  Could it be SSDI?  Possibly but it would surprise me.
There was a point I forgot to make in my comment to you.  My response to you was based on a singular aspect of what you wrote.  I, in no way, shape or form, have any intellectual, political or philosophical association or agreement with the original poster.  Just wanted to make that absolutely clear.
