The tombstoning of dkf further demonstrates how laughable it is for anyone to say they go to DU to be "informed and educated".

You don't educate by sealing off information and opinions that are contrary to a preexisting worldview and hammering away at only approved talking points. That is more correctly termed indoctrination, and like all cults, is suitable only for the weak minded.

What is absolutely fascinating about this is how these primitives can't even do the most simple forms of math.  They are always preaching sustainable energy, sustainable fisheries, sustainable forests etc etc... Evidently however, they don't seem to comprehend sustainable economics.

What's fascinating is the dummies don't understand the difference in the cost of a one time event (like a war), and the continual year after year payment of putting millions of people on different types of welfare.

My health care insurance premium was decreased from $340 to $630, my deductible was decreased from $3000 to $6000, and my co-pay was reduced from $25 to $60.

Only if you're a conservative.

If you're a liberal you could a black man Leroy Bojangle McSteppinfetchit and be blessed for it.

"False equivalencies" and all that, ya know?

6. The cat avatar dkf used... was that an indicator of some kind of clique?

Because a lot of the bizarre things I see posted here come from posters using that avatar?

Is it just a coincidence?

wow..they are really convinced that she was somehow a right wing shil. Guess somebody devoting half a decade to bothering them without getting caught makes sense in their world. Doesn't say too much about their deductive reasoning skills however.

They're absolutely obsessing over dkf!  Enormous threads, 300 or so responses.  What more can possibly be said?
