I'm old enough to be your mother or probably even grandmother and you try so extra hard to explain to me what "herd" means....just to try and show that you're some kind of an intellect or something...DUH!

I was familiar with the word "herd" before you were even a gleam in your daddy's eye, little girl, so stop looking so ignorant by trying to explain the meaning of the word "herd" to me...Okay?

....and Pid further says....

You can call women offensive names and think it's okay.....

If you were more careful when reading something, you would know that I didn't call any women "offensive names." as you accused....(I hate for people to lie about me!)

I was repeating...let me repeat....I WAS REPEATING what someone else called Ann Coulter...okay? Do you get it???

Pid continues....

quote:

---

YOU are the tasteless woman that posted something as derogatory as that

And it's in good taste to call someone "LOWER THAN POND SCUM?" as you called me, on this very forum???

....and she continues...

...but jwhop and I agree on something and you conveniently cry "herd mentality"

WAAAAAY WRONG, GIRL!

I was not referring to you and jwhop agreeing on something politically......jwhop DOES that...YOU don't!

You break the rules here and start putting the person down (not their ideas), by name calling....As I said before, it's your MO

Do you think she will meet the same demise as the Fembots when Austin Powers used his Mojo on them? Ears smoking, head spinning.. until POOF....

I wouldn't call those remarks exactly politically agreeing with jwhop on something....

I call it trying to put someone down because it makes you feel "superior" somehow...

So I think you're the one who needs to grow up.....

Oh yes...one more thing....

Your replies are still unable to make sense or counter my points. When you repeated the term "gash" and added the giggle you in effect "endorsed" the use of the name for a woman. You can try to wiggle out of it, but you did say it and you did add the giggle.

You picked on the term "herd" to use as a counter-argument with me, yet the word or term is only that and you used it wrong. You may try to play the game of semantics and even use your age to try to give you credit, but the fact remains you used it in the wrong context. Two people does not make a herd.

The bottom line is:

WHEN are you going to lay out that cohesive argument that you promised jwhop? Forget the herd crap, please answer jwhops question:

"When are you going to get around to laying out the case by chapter and verse against Bush and company corruption?"

On the 28th you promised you would do it and told us you needed time to celebrate your grandmother's b-day. So, please.... unless you all celebrate for a full 11 days - lets here it.

Oh and.... you are typical "list keeper", look that up in psychology. Do you have a running inventory of the things that I write to you?

Years ago I said you had been acting "LOWER THAN POND SCUM". I did not call you POND scum. I laugh at how you like to turn things around - tell me, do you get a rush out of playing the martyr? You do it very well. Do you feel that the big bad world is against you or only those that don't believe in your diatribe?

Hee hee... Looking forward to your answers - but mostly to your "theory about Bush and co" supplied with copious amounts of facts"

In the meantime...stop trying to be Miss Priss about the Gash Limbaugh thing and pretending to be so "protective" of the feminine gender...You know damn well it was meant soley for Annie Coulter and NOT all females in general....and altho I didn't think of that cute name for her first, I wish I would have...cuz I think it's pretty funny....and yes I giggled...

SO....

knock it off!!!

Now before pots start calling kettles black.......

tell me...

...if someone here who posts on this website says, (in referring to the "male genitalia")

"Think beer can..."

In your mind, would that put her in the same catagory as the one who repeated the Gash Limbaugh thing???

posted April 07, 2006 05:42 PM            

Stating someone's penis is the size of a beer can (someone that I am intimate with) is different that calling someone or endorsing a derogatory name such as "gash". What you did was similar to calling someone a racial epithet.

For example -someone that snickers when they relay that an American Indian columnist was referred to as "place any derogatory term here" and added (giggles).

Maybe you should look into the harassment and discrimination training in order to learn what is considered derogatory and what is not.

Me calling my ex-fiance's penis a beer can may "offend" someone in that it is graphic (say those 1% of the sensitive population) but it does not pass the test of gender, sex, race..etc. bias. In the same vein, you could have stated "Oh god, she did a cartwheel and we all saw her gash".

That is different than calling someone a "gash" especially since you act as though you are such a protector of women and all things spiritual.

You can hide behind saying "oh.. I was just repeating" but we both know what you did.

So anyway... let's get back to the task at hand. When are you going to write up your points about the Bush admin and corruption?

It doesn't matter if it is your grannies b-day or your freaking GrandSON's b-day. It was a damn excuse you used to side step the laying out your pathetic argument.

This is what you said to jwhop -

"Hey...Rome wasn't built in a day....and besides today is my grandson's birthday and I have better things to do....

...but have no fear...you've not heard the last from me on this....

....and.....

I also don't need any wisecracks from the peanut gallery.....

So persons not addressed kindly keep your silly remarks to yourself..."

Blah...blah...blah.....

I NEVER expected you to write ANYTHING in defense of your allegation concerning Bush and company because you are well.... YOU.

I'll just leave it at that since you can't seem to get the point - but hey, I am sure your world is full of lollipops, conspiracy and birthday cakes (regardless if it is grandma's, grandpa's, yours, or your children...grandchildren - what the freak ever.. ).

1. Semantics is, generally defined, the study of meaning of linguistic expressions.
2. Semantics is, more narrowly defined, the study of the meaning of linguistic expressions apart from consideration of the effect that pragmatic factors, such as the following, have on the meaning of language in use:

You don't know him, for which I am extremely glad, as I would not want to have him associating with someone like you....or to even know that someone like you exists....

Since you don't know him, I would say taking the liberty of calling him my "FREAKING" grandson is going WAY OVER THE LINE!

You're just stepping way too far when you start calling my grandson names....that's treading on sacred ground as far as I'm concerned....so....

FOR THE LAST TIME - KNOCK IT OFF!

Rainbow, you aren't even worth my time and effort. We both know that you have a martyr complex and only pick out words you want to see.I was in NO WAY calling your grandson names. I don't even know him nor would I venture to slam a child. I was insulting YOUR inability to see that you continually fail to answer the question asked ,but instead come up with one excuse after another.

If you wish to believe I called him a name, then that is your delusion and you can believe it with all the mighty purple passion in the world. I could care less.

I often feel that relating to Rainbow is like that sitcom where a young person is trying to talk to a hard of hearing elderly person and no matter what they say, they elderly person only hears a fraction and then even gets that wrong.

For example "So, I heard you used to love old music?"

Old guy "What in the hell do you mean I ate a load of Muslix"

Sure I could say alot of derogatory things and I was inching towards that, but felt it better to edit it and get on with other things.

Havent heard much about that thing up here in Canada but finding out it's an idiot.

After the September 11 attack masterminded by a terrorist hoping to spark a religious war, virtually every official and pundit knew better than to take the bait. Except for conservative commentator Ann Coulter, who wrote in a syndicated column on September 12 that in responding to terrorists "we should invade their countries, kill their leaders and convert them to Christianity."
The column outraged the public, but conservatives, including National Review editor Richard Lowry, ascribed Coulter's column to grief over the loss of a friend in the attacks. But the following week, Coulter was at it again: "Congress could pass a law tomorrow requiring that all aliens from Arabic countries leave....We should require passports to fly domestically. Passports can be forged, but they can also be checked with the home country in case of any suspicious-looking swarthy males." This time Lowry spiked her column. Coulter responded by calling Lowry and his staff censorious "girly boys." Lowry then dropped her as a contributing editor. Other conservative leaders also condemned her comments.

What's curious is that Coulter's comments aren't all that different, in tone and style, from hundreds of others she's made over the years. But in the past, her ire was directed at her domestic political enemies---for which she drew fulsome praise from conservatives. Last year, the Media Research Center presented Coulter with its "Conservative Journalist of the Year" award. The Clare Boothe Luce Policy Institute bestowed upon her its annual conservative leadership award "for her unfailing dedication to truth, freedom and conservative values and for being an exemplar, in word and deed, of what a true leader is."

Coulter is spinning her downfall as a new kind of terrorist-war McCarthyism. "People are hysterical about speech right now," she told The Washington Post's Howard Kurtz. "Everyone's comments are being taken out of context and wildly misinterpreted." At the risk of further de-contextualization, here are some of Coulter's past comments:

ABORTION STOPS A BLEEDING HEART
January 25, 2006

The Democrats are trying to "reframe" their message to make people think they believe abortion is wrong. I think this is going to be a hard sell if they plan to continue ferociously defending abortion-on-demand right up until the moment the baby's head is through the birth canal.

But both The New York Times and The Washington Post have recently run op-eds by liberals calling for Democrats to abandon their single-minded devotion to Roe v. Wade.

In the Post, Richard Cohen said it was time for liberals to "untether abortion rights from Roe." Cohen admitted that conservatives (and "some liberals," he claimed implausibly) have a point when they say abortion ought to be decided by the states. This is another way of saying abortion is not a constitutional right. Kate Michelman: Call your abortion mill!

In The New York Times, William Saletan gently counseled feminists that it was time to admit: "It's bad to kill a fetus." And they say liberals have no values!

Even Jimmy Carter, the Democrats' idea of an Evangelical Christian, has allowed that "I don't believe that Christ would approve of abortions." (Though Carter added that Christ would approve of abortion if "the mother's life or health was seriously endangered or the pregnancy resulted from rape or incest" — or if Jesus really, really needed the feminists to vote for him.)

It's been a long time coming, but the Democrats are finally throwing the NARAL ladies off the boat.

One by one, the Democratic Party keeps having to abandon all the insane positions that have made it the funny, silly party we've come to know and love.

The gun control fanatics were thrown overboard after President Bill Clinton and a Democratic Congress passed the 1994 crime bill that banned so-called "assault weapons" — i.e., otherwise completely legal semiautomatic weapons that looked scary to Dianne Feinstein.

As a result, the Democrats lost Congress for the first time in 40 years and lost the South forever. When is the last time you heard a Democrat use the words "gun control"?

In 1995, the new Republican Congress sent a welfare reform bill to Clinton, a man who had campaigned on "mend it, don't end it" and then refused to do anything about it.

Not one Democrat resigned from the Clinton administration when Clinton turned out to be molesting the help and committing lots of felonies. But a whole slew of them resigned to protest Clinton's signing the Republicans' welfare reform bill.

You never hear a peep out of Democrats anymore about restoring government welfare programs to their former glory.

Now it's the abortion ladies' turn.

As Saletan informed feminists in his Times column:

"You can tell yourself that the pro-choice majority stayed home in the last election, or that they voted on other issues, or that Democrats botched the debate. But those excuses are getting tired. Sixteen years ago, as the behavior of voters and politicians showed, abortion was clearly a winning issue for you. Now it isn't. You have a problem."

It's finally happened: Abortion stopped a bleeding heart.

I guess Sandra Day O'Connor's demand that "the contending sides" on abortion "end their national division" and accept the court's diktat in Roe didn't work out for her.

As Abraham Lincoln said of another moral blight on the nation supported by Democrats: You can "repeal the Declaration of Independence — repeal all past history — you still cannot repeal human nature. It will still be the abundance of man's heart, that slavery extension is wrong; and out of the abundance of his heart, his mouth will continue to speak."

Or, as Justice Antonin Scalia said, the court's refusal to overrule the lawless Roe decision would not stand because of "the twin facts that the American people love democracy and the American people are not fools."
