How is it so? Sherman A1 Apr 2018 #71

Telling someone that no one cares about them isn't diverting to someone's person? Cary Apr 2018 #72

If you believe that it was in your opinion Sherman A1 Apr 2018 #105

Where is sanders magical voter revolution? Gothmog Apr 2018 #57

Or try living in the real world and not lie about magical voter revolutions Gothmog Apr 2018 #64

There is something magical about a turf that won't flush? Cary Apr 2018 #70

my claim that communism is now acceptible? Jesus, that's a gop a tactic as I've heard on these JCanete Apr 2018 #113

Do you ever tire of being wrong Gothmog Apr 2018 #129

you're welcome to bother proving anybody ever said anything you are pretending was said. JCanete Apr 2018 #130

Again, Sanders lied and justified his platform based on a magical voter revolution Gothmog Apr 2018 #131

so, just looking at the first 2 to start, you are entirely mischaracterizing both. JCanete Apr 2018 #134

Sanders lied to his supporters about his proposals being feasible in the real world Gothmog Apr 2018 #136

Goth, I can't go anywhere with this. Instead of taking anything I said and actually addressing it, JCanete Apr 2018 #143

The fact that you are in denial about the premise of the Sanders platform is not my fault Gothmog Apr 2018 #144

I didn't say you don't have a point of view.You clearly have that. But I"m tired of trying to JCanete Apr 2018 #145

The concept that you think that you have made valid arguments amuses me Gothmog Apr 2018 #147

So you feel you are the arbiter of who espouses "progressive ideals" Cary Apr 2018 #69

Well by all means feel free to define them for me yourself. Its my version of progressive ideals. JCanete Apr 2018 #74

At the moment we are besieged by fascists Cary Apr 2018 #75

Degree of radicalism/extremism can probably be quantified, Hortensis Apr 2018 #93

It takes all kinds. Cary Apr 2018 #96

I do. I have. How is this relevant to what we're talking about? nt JCanete Apr 2018 #87

Come on. Cary Apr 2018 #88

The original conversation was about what is magical talk and thinking...not about JCanete Apr 2018 #89

Rise above Cary Apr 2018 #94

Cary, is your interest ever in having a conversation? Or do you think there are points involved. JCanete Apr 2018 #95

Nice ad hominem Cary Apr 2018 #97

You aren't listening Cary Apr 2018 #104

And I think you're the one playing the game, so that's where we are. For my part, JCanete Apr 2018 #106

Unfortunately you just reaffirm my theory Cary Apr 2018 #109

You are literally attacking my motives. Your attack goes to my character, which IS out of bounds for JCanete Apr 2018 #110

I gave you my honest assessment Cary Apr 2018 #112

why I push back against your baseless assesment? And if I do then that's more proof that you were JCanete Apr 2018 #114

I told you why you push back Cary Apr 2018 #115

please tell me you're just fucking with me already. To literally JCanete Apr 2018 #118
