Of the epic variety. 
the team? 
Glad you have enough integrity to admit it in public. Very commendable.
What kind of extra crispy tossed word salad was that?

I know exactly what it means. Condescension noted.
As far as being "out of my league," I'll take that as a complement. Your "league" is not one that I would want to be associated with.....and yes, I know what that phrase means as well.
You can take your arrogance and sell it elsewhere.
Understand?
Oh and btw..... When you see this particular punctuation (!11!) following a word or phrase on DU, it denotes mocking. Again, your teammate tried to use the term "projection" upthread in an effort to form some kind of response.
A Mob of Mindlessness. And you had just the right sized can of Raid to deal with it. 
average IQs of any college graduates. I'm not suggesting you're out of your league, but it would be nice to hear a cogent argument in defense of your position rather than all the snarky insults. If you can do something like that.
Your post just won the race to the bottom. 
You're honestly asking me to provide a "cogent argument" in THIS fucking thread?
Seriously?
Brilliant. No, this thread is nothing BUT snark.
There's no discussing this actual issue without name calling on both sides and more time is spent here figuring out ways to insult those who don't see things exactly like you do than anything else.
And silly me I thought only rightwingers "debated" like this.
And in case you didnt know, this website has the awesome feature to trash threads. 
Good luck out there!
and you're fixated on mine?
Welcome to the team! Tag up, professor.
Had you looked above the first post and seen the number you wouldn't have needed to try and count them one at a time. 
So tired of all the cries from folks claiming to be victims here on DU...It reminds me of Christians in America always claiming that they're victims of persecution. SAD!!
I will join in...
I've never had much use for the Excuse Makers.
That is why I love the OLD Democratic Party Leadership like FDR, HST, and LBJ...
NO EXCUSES, but especially no excuses accepted for NOT fighting.
When LBJ did the right thing in 1964,
and signed the Civil Rights Act is when I had the epiphany.
There is NO valid excuse for NOT doing the Right Thing.

and started trotting out the racist card to try and silence those who are the heretics and non-believers, I realized this NSA business has not only caused cognitive disturbance, but drove some of them plain batty.
If it isn't grand conspiracy theories involving the entire worlds' media united against Obama, it is something else equally nuts, like racists everywhere they look. 
Can you say, way too much kool-aid?
Here's you explaining HClinton's IWR vote.
Kool-aid anyone? 
28. well, maybe she had to do that for her political career. She is a woman, and she has to appear strong. I am not excusing it, just saying she might have had reasons. And it was not a pivotal vote she made either, in terms of the numbers. If she had opposed it, that would have made no difference in how it came out.

the struggle was finished. He had won the victory over himself. He loved Big Brother."
They tried that one for a while. Didn't really catch on- I think cause some of us actually kinda liked it 
last. American Indians with headdress told all of us to go home. They said it was too much smoke in the air. But we didn't know where to go. 
Seems he had an agenda from the start, re: entitlement reform. 
Come to think of it, there was a lot of screwing going on.
and congrats on your daughter's engagement! 
Only once in the more than 11 years I've posted on this board have I been alerted on or had problems w/ the mods until I said I thought the OP was the most annoying Democrat I could think of.
He appears to have special status here at DU and his followers are legion. So, when I see this kind of in your face insulting of me and every black person on this board, I can only shake my head and wonder about all the glee generated in support of the OP.
I can't tell what's in the heart or mind of others, but,having been born 70 years ago in rural Mississippi I think I'm more than qualified to recognize racism when I see or hear it...even when the perpetrator sincerely does not believe or intends it to be.
I read and rec-ed the post regarding possible racist feelings toward the President and thought the OP may have been rather clumsy in his attempt to try and identify the misguided vitriol toward him, but the reaction has been astounding. In response, I posted this:Whiteness, NSA Spying and the Irony of Racial Privilege

and wouldn't you know....crickets. Not even willing to consider or discuss.
Hopefully, by the time the grand kids are running the world this kind of stuff will just be history.
The only demon I confront is the demon rum, usually twice a week and that SOB wins, every damn time.And sarcasm is a grossly inappropriate approach to this particular topic. It might seem funny to you and it might play well on TV but to anyone not intimately familiar with Manny's ever-changing persona it looks likes straight-up racism and violates the DU TOS, whatever intentions Manny and his respondents might have.
Now do you get it?
your type of interpretation of what this OP is about. I do hope there are very few people who are capable of such... lets call it 'unorthodox' leaps of logic.
I wouldn't have thought those were in such short supply.
shortcomings publicly though.
spectrum early on during the first campaign when I started to notice that the words being spoken did not seem to say what the liberal interpretations said they said. I think my exact racist comment at the time was, "If this were 1976 he'd be a Republican." Mostly I blamed the interpretors, but hey... I voted with full understanding of that. When Guantanamo didn't close I became a little more of a racist, but I back tracked (walked it back) when some sort of health care reform was passed. The cat food commission definitely increased my bigotry. I then went wild with hatred when I read an editorial written by a member (color unknown) of the administration stating that basically, health insurance was headed for the same type of system as the 401k and that this was inevitable. That was the pinnacle of my racism. The surveillence boondoogle really hasn't increased my racism from that level, because I feel it is more a case of Kool Aid drinking than actual race. In fact, until many DUers equated anti-snoopism with hating Obama, I never really thought of it as an Obama issue. Which also makes me a hypocrite, because I always blamed this snooping on Bush when he was in the White House. Thanks, snoop-deniers!
Oh, wait, I forgot one. Being white, and [gasp] blue-eyed, I am told that I am a racist simply by being alive, so essentially I've been racist since before conception. The very idea of me is racist.
Especially how quickly it happened, less than a year after voting for Obama (The 2nd time), and being upset (again) with Washingtons continued violations of our rights (1st, 4th), other people, strangers in fact, kindly pointed it out to me.
I am working on it though, thank you for your thread 
But it didn't stop my descent into racism right there and than... 
I became convinced it applies to EVERYONE. No qualifiers, restrictions, etc. I even think it should be applied to non-Human species like Great Apes (just one of the examples) and AI.
I am so sorry...
& Rec !!!
Which means he doesn't work directly for the government.
Objectively, how do you know who we are and how much we write to Congress? I mean seriously, how could you POSSIBLY know that? I'm really, truly curious.
If there is no way you could possibly know, why take it upon yourself to criticize, without cause, 200 people who are ostensibly your allies? You ARE a Democrat, right? but you actively seek to insult and possibly make enemies of other Democrats? Why? Truly, why?
referring to Obama as "articulate"?
I mean, really, we were coming off of 8 years of this:
and "articulate" was high up on my pony list.
Shoot me.
Let's start THAT debate again...
to you for one of the funniest replies i've read in a long time.
I was single for 39 years and I've dated enough races, ethnicities and foreigners to have an opinion and anecdotal story or two.
temerity to support civil rights. My maternal grandfather had been his (Al Gore, Sr.') early campaign manager. That grandfather and my father left me without a racist story to tell. I am grateful and salute them both. 
It goes back to when I was in the womb.
I remember fantasizing about Raquel Welch while masturbating.
And then I stopped.
I remember thinking, "How could I be fantasizing about Raquel Welch?? I have never seen her and have no idea who she even is. This is some seriously f**ked up s**t."
I hope that explains things.
They are after our women folk!
We need a support group.
