    I don't think you understand, people exactly like leif make up a huge portion of welfare/medicare/ss.

    Personal responsibility is a huge deal... for everybody except me, of course.

    does this mean we can have political discussions without GOP obstructionism ruining it now?

    I mean the discussions will always be retarded in some ways, but at least they can flow a little bit now.

    You wouldn't know that though because you've demonstrably never picked up a book nor educated yourself on the matter. Let me guess, overweight housewife?

    Well played Qal, well played.

    just to be sure, it was obvious to everyone else that leif was just a rather committed troll, right? no one's going to blow my mind and tell me they knew him irl and he actually believes that shit + acts on it in his day-to-day life, right? and you all (even the ones mysteriously posting long, researched posts at him) knew that he wasn't actually arguing with you but rather fucking with you, right? b& was sort of obviously appropriate, unless i'm alone in my reading of the situation. it has nothing to do with so-called "liberal bias"; he was just obviously fucking with you.

    You're being very naive. People like that exist. I mean of course they do.

    And there are tons of forums online and IRL, where they are the majority.

    I'm actually very surprised at how liberal BG is.

    If that wall is not a troll, it is still a wall and thus me yelling at it makes me look silly and demented.

    The 40% of Americans that consider themselves conservatives probably hold the same views he does.

    This the same 40% that were sure we found WMD's in Iraq?

    i'm aware that people hold views like leif's or even more extreme, and i'm also aware that a lot of people use really bad arguments with sincerity... but it was pretty obvious in most threads that i saw him in that he was quoting sources he knew his interlocutors would not respect, and saying things simply to get a rise out of people. it's possible he actually is conservative, but it's also very likely that he enjoys fucking with "liberals" more than he ever felt the need to get the word out about his beliefs.

    or not, and i'm imagining things. i'd give specific examples, but i'm already putting forth more effort than the topic deserves.

    2nd edit: note also that while there seems to be a mildly left-leaning bent on this site, it is not unheard of for people on this site to post leftist stuff (that they probably believe) expressly to start shit (sometimes they even admit that they're doing it and it still works).

    The guy invented a new portion of the political spectrum to the right of Nazi's, and stated he resides on it.

    That's some HQ trolling if I ever saw it.

    He really is this ridiculous, oblivious, and downright dumb.

    And so is neo, hence this thread.

    Liberals have their kooks to. 30% think 9/11 was an inside job.

    I could do this all day if I wanted to.. It's easy for anyone here to be a Lyndon LaRouche to Leif's Joe McCarthy and post some stupid tinfoil-hat theory or ultra-leftist nonsensical argument. But we don't, because there's much more factual information out there to work with that's more important and more relevant. And none of are as deliberately partisan as he is.
