Re: que sera sera

Re: que sera sera
the awesome republican primary thread (it even has a snarky title)
No.
When I'm being snarky, you will know about it. The very pillars of the earth will shake and tremble. I do not do snarky by half-measures. But you guys can be paranoid about anything.

Re: All networks biased
But it's not the existence of right-wing pundits that people are complaining about. You're the first person on this thread to mention O'Reilly, Hannity, or Baier.

Re: All networks biased
CNN though has done the same thing as far as making stuff up and reporting it as true. For example, their reporter Susan Roethsgen used a fake Tea Party plant to make the movement look bad. After the interview Tea Party supporters confronted her and it got caught on video, where they asked why she deliberately interviewed a fake who left right afterward, and that she was trying to make them look bad.
Afterwards, CNN made a pretense at getting rid of Roethsgen by not renewing her contract, but brought her back once the controversy died on.
Wow ... you even spelled her name wrong. I applaud your consistency.

Re: as of March 31st ...
Well, a lot of the data is coming from states that set up their own exchanges. How does the White House cook their books? And then of course the federal website, for those who used it, was built by private contractors, so the government would have to bribe the contractors to get a false result there, it's not like Obama sits in the Oval Office counting insurance applications. And, ultimately, the figure in question is how much insurance people bought from private insurance companies. Well then, the companies know how much insurance they've sold.

Re: Add a little wine ...
PRESIDENT’S ANNOUNCEMENT OF HEALTH-CARE NUMBERS ANGERS OPPONENTS OF MATH
Tuesday’s announcement by President Obama that 7.1 million people have signed up for Obamacare set off a firestorm of controversy among opponents of math in the U.S. Congress.
Representative Michele Bachmann, a leading member of the anti-math caucus, told reporters, Throughout the debate on Obamacare, there has been a tacit agreement to leave math out of it. Today, President Obama broke that agreement.
Senator John Barrasso, an anti-math Republican from Wyoming, agreed. It’s very disappointing to see the President use arithmetic for political purposes, he said.
Bachmann said that she believed the American people would see through President Obama’s desperate use of numbers. She added, Whenever this President gets in trouble, he hides behind data.
The Minnesota Republican said that many others in Congress agreed with her, but she declined to count them.

Re: Due When? Why?
A note here if you are self employed you must pay the penalty on the quarterly returns you file in 2014, the employed morons won't realize they are going to be taxed till April 15, 2015.
Maybe you should ask yourself why the Obama sycophants on this board didn't tell you the true reason for the 3/31/2014 deadline and instead made up a bunch of crap you almost bought.
BTW I got the above quote from a government web site, if only everyone who was voting this November had to read it. Dems don't want you to know this even though it's true. The Republicans do for obvious reasons.
You can now return to your comatose state.
All the words in that post are real words that are part of the English language.
But when we consider the way in which they were arranged into sentences, we find that although each of them were individually meaningful, they cease to be so when put into that particular order.

This from the person who posted a picture in his "Introduction to Geology" which he said was an example of wind blown deposition when it wasn't. You know I waited 6 months to see if anyone on this board would even ask a question about it, no one did. You didn't even look at it in an unbiased manner even after I told you it was wrong.
So much for careful unbiased observation and critical thinking which I see you carry on into the other areas of your life.
Your version of events is interesting. Shall we look at what actually happened?

I may have done something different in the world in your head, but in the real world not only did I politely, even obsequiously, ask you to set me right, not only did I then let you set me right, and correct the offending post, but also when you had set me right I thanked you for it. How often, in your experience, does that happen? How often is even the best-merited correction welcomed with warm thanks rather than grudging acceptance?
One more time. This is me:

And this is your chosen example of how I can't look at things in an unbiased manner? Golly, I'm a monster of arrogance and prejudice, aren't I?
I now have some suggestions as to what you might go do to yourself. But you may not receive them in the same eager spirit which which I accepted your advice.

Well, it depends on how you parse it. The U.S. has had lots of Presidents who were like Benjamin Franklin ... in one way or another. Grover Cleveland, for example, was an overweight horndog.
