Re: Damn Statistics
Crashfrog notes:
Imagine if your car drove off the side of the road, and your driver refuses to turn the wheel and bring the car back onto the road, because if he keeps going in that direction, he'll drive right off the other side of the road. But why would you keep going in that direction? Why wouldn't you get back on the road and then straighten the wheel?
​
Wow - this is exactly the analogy I've been thinking about. Bush drove the car off the road into the swampy muck on the right. To get out of the muck, sometimes you have to back out a step and turn the wheel.

To me, the joke's on his mom... who will fuck anything (apparently).

Oh CS....

Couldn't you have said something more like:
​
To me, the joke's on his mom... who they are implying would fuck anything.
​
Huge difference. The former implies you agree.

The Judge has moved beyond that point, it is those who have their panties in a wad that are still at the pre-kindergarten level.

Crashfrog is right. You are just being a snit. The "n" is just a broken-off "h" in this case, I suppose.
​
BTW the origination of the term "panties in a wad" is, if not so completely a misogynist insult, still, nevertheless, a sexist epithet, cute as you might "apparently" think it is.

Re: Arguments of sovereignty, back on the table . . .

That hot wife was a deal Kucinich made with the actual real powers running this country to portray himself as a fringe idiot. "You be an extreme leftist to make those way over there think they have someone representing them, a token voice as it were, and we'll set you up with the life-long fuck of your wildest dreams. Deal?"
