Anyone missing the special arguing style formerly exclusive to RAO can

And then there are Democrats who want to spend trillions on
government run healthcare, waste enormous effort pursuing
inefficient energy technologies and ignoring
zero-greenhouse-gas-emissions nuclear power while whining about
global warming, continue pouring hundreds of billions into
Iraq/Afghanistan with no end in sight. Very amusing and depressing
to see Democrat leaders (including from California) talk about
pouring more money into Afghanistan. What money?

Good luck making that pig fly. Seriously.

What happened to the Democrat Senator that used to present pretty
charts and talk about all of the red ink? Takes little research to
find his name...

http://www.nytimes.com/2004/02/03/us...-politics.html

Where did he go?!
Senator Kent Conrad, the Democrat Houdini who just disappeared.

The problem was that Democrats had no control over spending, not
that they cared about the consequence of continuing to borrow more
money from communist countries like China. Currently, Democrats
are talking about some very serious red ink.

2pid and Clyde were only here for my amusement. Now that I can only
post infrequently their very reason for existance is gone.

That and now 2pid can't call me an "RIPer" any more. That has to hurt.
LoL.

I may be passing through Austin soon. When I know for sure perhaps
you'd be willing to give advice restaurants, etc.?

I'm not surprised that you would automatically think the worst. A
psychologist would tell you that your negative thinking about others
stems from the fact that your own life is unrewarding,and
unfulfilling, and that your secret hope that others are worse off than
you is a HUGE defense mechanism.

So how ****ed up is your life?

So you're one of those dysfunctional boomers who think that quoting

And you've turned into quite the bitter old geezer, a far cry from the fat,
happy slob in the CES picture with Sanders. No doubt due to that behemoth
ex-wife who's raking your sorry wallet over the alimony coals after being
humiliated by that gigantosaurus dress you bought her on eBay was still too
tight and all her friends laughed at her, so she dumped the rugrats on you and
she now gets the last laugh all the way to the bank. You sure can pick 'em,

When it rains, it rains a lot, thirty inches or more a year. We're in
the second year of a drought, but the year before that brought
forty-five inches of rain.

Wrong. I'm much happier and fulfilled now than then.

No doubt due to that behemoth
ex-wife

My ex-wife is 5'9" and 109 pounds. People in the real world think
you're an idiot for trying to say my ex-wife is fat.

I don't pay alimony. Never have.

coals after being
humiliated by that gigantosaurus dress you bought her on eBay was still too
tight and all her friends laughed at her,

Now you're talking about a completely different person. You're all
over the place here. Desperation. By the way, that dress was purchased
as a movie prop. Oops...there it is again, people other than you
having interesting lives and getting things done. It must make you
soooooo angry as you get up in the middle of the night to check on
your mistakes.

so she dumped the rugrats on you and
she now gets the last laugh all the way to the bank.

Another out and out lie. A desperate one that's probably forged out of
your inanility to have satisfying personal relationships.

You sure can pick 'em,
Boonie.

Here we go again...making up lies out of thin air because you're
simply not smart enough to observe and report. Again, why aren't you
showing any of these posts to your friends, family and co-workers in
the real world? Are you afraid they'll see how far you've slipped? Or
is it just that you have no friends, family or co-workers that speak
to you anymore?

You fit the psychological profile to a T. It's pretty black-and-white
(you know, to match your thinking processes.)

Good luck with that.
