Funniest unfunny AM NY Cover picture/story, ever. (Funny even if WMDs didn't have the unnecessary comma...oh well. Nothing's perfect.)
Posted by Maria at January 13, 2005 12:58 PM | TrackBackPity you closed the other thread down. I was beginning to enjoy it. I had a great comment typed out.
But I do like this post. Believe it or not, there are still die hard Bush supporters who still think WMD's will eb found. They sort of remind me deranged individuals who will believe in the lie more than the liar who told it.
It disturbs me.
Posted by: theRAWdeal at January 13, 2005 02:10 PMI am onfused. What "facts" have you presented in this thread? She posted a picture of a cover page. The meat of the story is that the WHitehouse finally admitted there are no WMD's. What more facts does one need? It came from the horses mouth. DO we need to look in his larnyx too to make sure it REALLY came from there? Should we test to make sure the horse wasn't under hypnosis? This confuses me. You call anyone who disgrees with you "moonbats" and use the same term when describing someone who has what you deem as a fringe theory, yet, you seem to insinuate there is a fringe theory or conspiracy here with this post?
You don't happen to have Adult ADD do you?
Posted by: theRAWdeal at January 13, 2005 02:15 PMAnd no, I am not being sarcastic. I am serious in asking that question.
Posted by: theRAWdeal at January 13, 2005 02:16 PMRawdeal, don't worry about Geoffrey. He's just having a little meltdown because I'm deleting all of his comments. He doesn't have anything to contribute and he has no entitlement to spout his bullshit here. Don't be surprised if all threads are temporarily shut down soon until his ego calms down and he ceases this little episode. Don't worry. We've been through all this before.
There's nothing he hates worse than not having the last word. It's a sickness with him. Once I start deleting he starts posting duplicates in every thread, so desperate is he to be heard. So desperate to get his last word in. So desperate to spread his rancid, pointless bile in any available cranny. Desperation. That's all it is. I really think it's a mental illness, to be quite truthful.
Posted by: Maria at January 13, 2005 02:19 PMThat's true.
Posted by: Mad Mikey at January 13, 2005 07:13 PMWell isn't that the damndest thing...Mad Mikey agrees with me! Oh alright, I know you were agreeing with Geoffrey's deleted commens. One thing you should know Mikey, I don't close threads for fear of having lost an argument. Don't worry. I'm pretty confident that Geoffrey is a completely useless debater who can't make a valid point to save his own life and couldn't knock down my arguments if he rented a John Deer to do it. I close the comment threads because he is a mental case and he needs to seek help and I delete your comments when you start acting like a dipshit. Which you do occasionally.
Geoffrey actually reminds me a lot of George Bush. A perfect little mouthpiece. The perfect little droid with only so many lines to spout. He uses the contemporary conservative strategy of bitter, bile and adamant denial to work every thread into an acrimonious nightmare.
That is why I close the threads and delete his repetative, robotic, transparent comments.
He feeds off the responses he gets. The more thoughtful and genuine the comment, the more reason a person tries to add to the exchange, the more he likes to abuse the commentor. He gets off on belittlement. It's his main defense mechanism because he HAS no argument. His main defense mechanism is "you're stupid." It's tedious. I have explained this about a hundred times and you continue to say the same silly things like "yeah, Maria shuts down the comments because she can't defend her argument." You totally overlook the fact that of all the reasons I shut down the threads, that's not one of them. You and Geoffrey always seem to think there's something to be won. There's nothing to be won here. There are no prizes being given out. You don't get anything for coming here and telling all the democrats that they're idiots and don't know what they're talking about. I don't visit Dogsnot. I don't visit your blog Mad Mikey. So why do you visit mine? That's the real question.
Because you need someone to aggress against? Because you think you're going to change me? So that you can "win" an argument? Why? That's right. Because you can't deal with the fact that my opinions are different than yours. I don't care that yours are different from mine. Which is why you will never see me on your blog telling you that you're an idiot and your opinions are invalid. Because it doesn't bother me that you exist like it bothers you and Geoffrey that I exist. You have to come here and release your anger at me. You hate it that I have different views than you. Geoffrey goes back to his blog and cries and puts up entire posts about how dumb I am because that's how much it bothers him that I have a different opinion than him. If I'm so ignorant, why would you read my blog every time I post?
It's really strange if you ask me. But I think it reveals more than anything, who is truly insecure. Those of you who can't cope with my existence and that of others like me, so you feel compelled to come and tell me that you think my head is up my ass. Well guess what? I think your head is up your ass too. But I don't visit your blog and read your posts every day just so I can have the opportunity to tell you so.
Posted by: Maria at January 13, 2005 08:15 PMI'm pretty confident that Geoffrey is a completely useless debater who can't make a valid point to save his own life and couldn't knock down my arguments if he rented a John Deer to do it.
I certainly did in the last two discussions. I can't remember the last time I've seen you cry so hard.
As I said, and Mikey agreed, you rarely can defend your argument because you rarely understand the arguments you cut and paste. You are quick to completely abandon your indefensible argument and resort to ad homs. Then, when it's apparent everyone else is beginning to see your argument has been debunked, you delete the comments and lock the thread. Your blog is riddled with the locked comments of your lost arguments. Heck, look at either of last two discussions we had. I factually debunked everything you said, you cried, then you locked the thread.
It doesn't matter that you do, though. What's important is that you and I both know you're all hat, no cattle.
Thank you Geoffrey. That was perfectly exemplary of the exact statement I just made about you.
Does the word "obsessed" ring a bell?
Posted by: Maria at January 13, 2005 09:12 PMActually, it was the perfect wrap up to the whining post you made above it.
Every word I spoke is the truth. You cry, people notice, then you delete.
You're all hat, no cattle. A pushing 30 secretary about to be supported by her parents again. You exemplify the ideal moonbat.
Posted by: Geoffrey at January 13, 2005 09:15 PMObsessed? Yeah, I wrote about obsessed several deleted posts ago. Nice of you to steal it. Couldn't get anything original?
Posted by: Geoffrey at January 13, 2005 09:16 PMLooks like Geoffrey's pissed. Sucks to be called out on exactly what you are ya little crybaby? "Waaaah! You deleted my comment! You're stupid!" Why do you visit my blog again? Because you're obsessed? I see you resorted to the most belittling comment you could muster. Pretty weak. I think that's Gordon's line. Couldn't you get anything original?
Every time you start typing on those keys, you demonstrate the truth in my previous statement. Can't deal with the fact that I'm here can you Geoffrey? Galls you so much that you come every day to tell me how dumb I am. It must suck to be so tortured by the thought that others have different opinions than you. Must suck to see a strong woman expressing her thoughts, opinions and observations of the world around her. You misogynists hate that. It sucks so much that you can't leave me alone. I feel truly loved.
Hell, I'm a fuckin celebrity at your blog and I don't even read the piece of dung!
Posted by: Maria at January 13, 2005 09:29 PMI can't remember the last time I've seen you cry so hard.
You've actually never seen me cry at all. And if you think you have the capacity to do so, you're flattering yourself.
Heck, look at either of last two discussions we had. I factually debunked everything you said, you cried, then you locked the thread.
Oh, I apologize Geoffrey, I didn't know that comments like these:
You're all hat, no cattle. A pushing 30 secretary about to be supported by her parents again. You exemplify the ideal moonbat.
constituted factually debunking anything except the most obvious fact, which is that you are a complete dipshit and it makes perfect sense to tell you so.
You never factually debunk ANYTHING. You just tell people they're wrong and then pat yourself on the back for a job well done. It's pretty comical really.
Posted by: Maria at January 13, 2005 09:40 PMYou obviously don't read well, then. Anyone can go down a few posts, stroll through the comments, and see you combust when your argument fails. Heck, you quoted Bybee and said it was Gonzales. You can't even follow your own argument.
Then, if it makes you look too bad, you delete it. Heck, I don't know why you bother having comments at all. You just make yourself look stupid in them.
Posted by: Geoffrey at January 13, 2005 09:53 PMBetter yet, go check out the first Social Security post you locked after you made yourself look stupid.
Particularly, go check your speech about Bush raiding the Social Security funds that you paid in and have been set aside for you.
Now THAT was classic. You'll argue about things you don't even understand, then lock the thread when you realize you're over your head.
Posted by: Geoffrey at January 13, 2005 09:58 PMOk, I just have to ask this:
Geoffrey, when Maria wrote the posting about how she was going to back to school, your first comment was a very civil, "Look into the SAT classes; they help, especially when you've been away from school awhile."
You know I typically agree with your postings because we are more of the same mindset than myself and Maria, but for the love of all that is good and green on God's gracious earth, I cannot understand the civility in one thread and the absolute bashing of everything from political beliefs to what she looks like in photographs to her occupation. There are times when you seem to be good friends with her. Then comes a stream of attacks that prompts more attacks, until the vitriol could kill an army of rats in a heartbeat.
My husband is much the same way; he believes it is his life mission to convert all Democrats and liberals to conservatism. It pisses the living hell out of him that people think the way Maria does. I personally oppose much of what she writes; however, I do believe she has a major talent for writing and expresses herself in a passionate and articulate manner. Just because I disagree with most of it doesn't make it poor writing. On the other hand, I agree with much, if not most of what you say, but honest to God you piss me off watching you dismantle and reduce everything to the depths you do at times.
Just my observation. I'm only one reader and you can tell me to go to hell and I won't be pissed because I know you love all of us who agree with you :)
Posted by: Vickie at January 13, 2005 10:26 PMI really push Geoffrey's buttons. Now he can't stop sputtering about how stupid I am and how I don't know how to read. Definitely having a meltdown tonight. I think you need to dust yourself off Geoff, wipe the snot from your nose, pick your little wedgie and go home where you can cry about me and dedicate posts to me all day long.
I'm going to take a snack break and await his next hissy fit.
Why do you visit my blog again Geoffrey? What's that you say? Because you're a stalker? You don't have to tell me!
Posted by: Maria at January 13, 2005 10:40 PMFrankly, I love watching them go at it. I think that Geoffrey comes here because Maria dishes it out. It's like political S&M.
Having everyone agree with you all the time can get boring. Hell, that is why I'm always here. I love disagreeing with Maria, she's the funnest liberal online. Most of the ones I argue with get too wound up, not Maria. You go girl!
Posted by: Rosemary the Queen of All Evil at January 13, 2005 10:57 PMThere's a difference between watching them "go at it" and attacking somebody's age and appearance. You were the first one to defend her yesterday when those two issues came up! I'm not a big one for constant agreement either; that's most of the reason I constantly read both their blogs, because they provide a total opposite approach on most issues. My comment referred to the base levels that he reaches.
Posted by: Vickie at January 13, 2005 11:02 PMI don't mind dishing out a spanking, that's for sure.
Does anyone really think I would have this blog if I didn't think people were going to disagree with me? I know it's not easy to always be nice when you disagree with someone, but it's not necessary to be a complete bastard either and twist everything into a million knots before declaring that you've conquered! Conquered what?
I abandon arguments because I don't care enough to keep arguing with a person who is determined to WIN. I don't think that every discussion has to have a final resolution where one person feels superior over the other. I say what I think on this website because I don't feel like holding it in. It's fun for me. I also like being one more person out there who will rag on politics as if it matters. Because it does. But it's not worth having wars over. It's not worth getting all confrontational and out of sorts about it with those who don't see it your way.
Vickie and Rosemary, Of course it pisses me off that you two think the way you do about politics. I hate George Bush and you two love him! But I'm not about to start interrogating you about your views and what they're founded on, criticizing everything about you down to the very people that raised you, giving you the third degree about your "sources!" It's all bullshit man. You ladies have always been respectful to me despite our differences and I respect you for that and I think you're decent people despite your political leanings. But we girls know that boys are not as mature as girls.
Everything I write doesn't need to be analyzed and picked apart to the n'th degree and convoluted strangely by some guy in wherever-the-fuck-GeoffreyandGordon-lives, who then insists that I defend every single thing that comes out of my mouth to HIS satisfaction. It's insane. It really is. He's a mental patient.
Okay? So thanks Vickie and Rosemary for being cool.
Posted by: Maria at January 13, 2005 11:49 PMThe picture is that of the George Bush we've all come to know and love. I can almost hear the giggle.
RGE
That picture is freakin hilarious RGE. I showed it to my boss this morning and he seriously thought it was the Onion. Hahah!!!!!
Seeing him superimposed on that ravaged, fucked up background with scraps of metal and warheads lying nearby, wearing his nice suit and making that "what? what'd I do?" expression with his hands and face is both funny and excruciating.
Posted by: Maria at January 14, 2005 12:02 AM.
I enjoy seeing a smart, articulate, independent- minded young woman tear apart the lame attempts at argument and the low-life insults which are all a "neo-con" is capable of.
Every day, Mistress "M" makes them do it all over again, these fat old white guys, hiding from their nauseated wives, out in the garage, up in the attic, or down in the cellar, with the leaky refrigerator full of cheap beer, and a stash of old girlie magazines with the pages stuck together. That's Gregory, and his clones.
Mistress "M" kicks 'em in their shriveled nuts just before they get off here, every time. No wonder they're so pissed. And all in front of the whole world!
HAW-HAW-HAW!!!
They don't realize how you're using them to show up all Republicans as the scum they really are. Lotta class, guys! Carry on wanking! Keep kickin' their asses, Maria! It's so FUN!
Muahaha!
.
Vickie,
I agree. That is exactly why I defended Maria over there. Attacking someone's position - I love that. Attacking someone's appearance, especially falsely, I will smack somone for that. My husband told somebody just yesterday that I was 37 and I slugged him in the arm. I won't be 37 until the end of April and I don't feel like getting nudged there a minute before. So calling someone pushing 30, who is a few years away from the big 3-0 is just nasty, IMHO.
Maria,
Thanks. I enjoy a good flame war, really. But I much rather debate politics and to do that properly you have to respect your opponent and I try hard to do that. That is one reason I can argue with you but with Nunya and a few others - I just flame their asses. Some people don't know the meaning of the word respect. We all can lose it in the heat of the moment but some people are lost before they begin.
For the record, my Dad (RIP) was a hardcore Union Democrat and Mom is an Independent. I was raised by immigrants that fled Communist Poland to give us a better life. I am the first American citizen in my entire family and I am their 3rd child. I was also a card carrying Democrat until about 1994. :-)
Posted by: Rosemary the Queen of All Evil at January 14, 2005 12:25 AMOooh! So you really took offense when Kerry forgot Poland, huh? ;o)
Thanks for defending me at their lair. I appreciate it. But I know what I've got and what I don't got and they can say whatever they want about my physical appearance. I think I look good and I have a boyfriend who loves every inch of me, so I couldn't possibly feel slighted by some pigs who could only hope to be as lucky as he is.
Posted by: Maria at January 14, 2005 01:18 AMOooh! So you really took offense when Kerry forgot Poland, huh?
You have no idea! Hahhahahahahhahahahahha
Posted by: Rosemary the Queen of All Evil at January 14, 2005 08:05 AMAhhh, so it's ok to attack someone's intelligence. It's ok to attack someone's morals. It's ok to just generally insult someone. But if you point out flaws in their physical appearance that's a no no? What bizarro hypocrisy land do you morons live in?
Vickie, in particular, is one to talk.
Go back and read the threads. Hell, RM, you participated in one. As soon as her argument goes south she's all mouth. I'll jump all over that any day. Just check your hypocrisy at the door. Or don't. I don't care. Just expect to be called on it.
Posted by: Geoffrey at January 14, 2005 12:19 PMSure, I did participate but that was early on, long before I got to know Maria online anyway.
I am a hypocrite - I admit it. I m also a woman and women hate to be attacked for our physical appearance. I don't mind attacking someone for being stupid or wrong because those are things you can change. You can't change your appearance as easily and you can't ever change your age. Besides someone's appearance usually has nothing to do with the argument at hand.
It's not okay to attack someone's anything really but if you are gonna do it you should attack something that is debatable. Like morals, intelligence, position, etc...
Of course, that i just my opinion and while you may think I'm a moron for having it - I do. And I can live with it. I still love you Geoffrey!
Posted by: Rosemary the Queen of All Evil at January 14, 2005 12:34 PMSure, I did participate but that was early on, long before I got to know Maria online anyway.
I was referring to that specific discussion. Nothing more.
As long as you realize how absolutely idiotic it is to justify attacks on some grounds, but not others. I don't have to live with your hypocrisy, you do. I just point it out.
Posted by: Geoffrey at January 14, 2005 12:37 PMGeoffrey ran away and licked his wounds last night before he could muster the balls to come back and start spewing more boring, predictable comments. He doesn't even have anything to say. He just desperately needs to be heard.
Stalkers scare me.
Posted by: Maria at January 14, 2005 12:44 PMWaaaaaah! Geoffrey points out that my arguments are based in fiction.
Waaaaaaaaahhhh!
Posted by: Geoffrey at January 14, 2005 12:47 PM.
OH! Mistress M. un-man's the Massholian girlyman AGAIN!!!
And he comes sucking back for more!
Too funny!
Ha-ha!
Suck it up El Gordo!!! You lost again!!!
Maria 100,000
Fat boy 0
Bwa-ha-ha!!!
.
Geoffrey,
What exactly do you gain by "jumping all over" someone on a blog when they say something you personally disagree with? I have read a number of blogs already where it seems you take the offensive as if it were a search and destroy objective to find any blog that talks points you do not agree with, then stir up the conversation just enough to tick someone off. From there is escalates in an all out flame war.
Posted by: theRAWdeal at January 14, 2005 01:05 PMIt's his MO RAWdeal. He's a stalker. If this weren't the internet, he would be in jail right now. At the very least I would have already slapped him with a restraining order.
Posted by: Maria at January 14, 2005 01:10 PMHere's an interesting article about a guy who says he supports his daughters and lets them do what they want. One is a legal secretary, the other is in porn. Funny, the one in porn says she won't talk to her sister anymore.
Posted by: Ron J at January 14, 2005 01:24 PMGeoffrey is definitely reaching his peak of fervent desperation. This is one of his worst episodes yet. He's really hit rock bottom.
Posted by: Maria at January 14, 2005 01:26 PM"Ahhh, so it's ok to attack someone's intelligence. It's ok to attack someone's morals. It's ok to just generally insult someone. But if you point out flaws in their physical appearance that's a no no? What bizarro hypocrisy land do you morons live in? Vickie, in particular, is one to talk." - Geoffrey
That is just plain bullshit. Give me a fucking break. I never ONCE indicated that it's ok to just generally insult somebody. And if you're referring to my comment to Rosemary, I said "there's a difference between going at it and reducing the argument to the point that it's reduced to." "Going at it" doesnt mean I sanction pissing on somebody's life. "Going at it" referred to general back and forth debate where two parties disagree to topics. Im going to call you on this comment, Geoffrey, like you do to everybody else. I made a total attempt in my original comment in this thread to make it clear that I AGREE WITH WHAT YOU SAY, but I get upset when THE ARGUMENT IS DISMANTLED TO THE DEPTHS THAT IT DOES, AND THAT INCLUDED EVERYTHING. Reread my comment. NOWHERE am I being hypocritical. NOWHERE am I making the comment that it's ok to kick her ass on everything EXCEPT her looks or her age.
I've stayed out of this shit. Now I see why. Thanks for the "moron" label.
Posted by: Vickie at January 14, 2005 03:22 PMThis gets my award for most pathetic quote of the day, second only to Geoffrey's stream of bile:
Of course, that i just my opinion and while you may think I'm a moron for having it - I do. And I can live with it. I still love you Geoffrey!
Rosemary, that's just sad. What's to love?
Posted by: Maria at January 14, 2005 03:31 PMThat's what your sister said about you. Actually, she never said she didn't love you, only that she wouldn't speak to you.
Posted by: Geoffrey at January 14, 2005 03:32 PMA response to Maria as shes talking to Rosemary; no response to my CORRECTING your accusations of my "hypocrisy".
Seems to me that's what pisses you off the most, when somebody "ignores" you when you're calling them on something.
Posted by: Vickie at January 14, 2005 03:40 PMOh my god! It's an argument orgy!!! Everybody DANCE! Argument Orgy! Argument Orgy! Hahahahaahaa.
I'm sorry. I just find all this so damn humorous.
Posted by: Maria at January 14, 2005 03:46 PMYou falsely believe I'm pissed off. How can you get pissed off when you're making fun of someone you don't know online?
