your AD HOMINIM attacks on me FIlled with VITROLIC HYPERBOLE are getting tiresome. YOU must have better things to do than annoy a FAIR minded moderate like me. Use your powers for good instead of evil.. come back to the light. Join the winners leave, the whiners. Try to understand that not all things are what they seem. and you really take yourself much to serious.. maybe some medications to stop your mood swings, or some sex to take take the edge off. either way get some help fast and stop these purile behaviors.

progressive,

With all due respect, moderate did keep the Republican songs as well (good job, whoman)...it's pretty much bipartisan sniping. Let's enjoy it for what it is!

(note to mod: I suppose "don't cry" by G N' R would be too ballsy, eh?).

Don't bother asking Progressive,
"Moderateman" has been Fox - Zombified (technical term for this sickness is Zombias Foxus Dumbasses), he thinks his rabid rants are "fair and balanced", and yeah, nearly all of them are simple ad hominem attacks disguised as some actual argument. To be just, this recent post wasn't one of them.

My other favorite forms of "argument" sported by current administration supporters are the "dictionary" tactic and the "turnabout is fair game ploy".

The dictionary tactic: Claim your entire argument is based on the strength of your dictionary backing up the defn. of a word then argue that because someone can't prove you wrong that you've won the argument.

The turnabout ploy: Apply your opponent's argument against itself even when it isn't apt. Hey, at least you said something, and nobody's going to bother to retort to such a pitiful reply so your ego can rest safely, knowing you got the last word.

...last but not least, you can tell when someone has been "Fox - Zombified" when they are thoroughly convinced they are within the mainstream conciousness of America and that the conventional wisdom of America is correct all of the time but only when ruled by a majority of Republicans.

The symptoms of this sickness are as follows:

* repeated use of tactics described above

* repeated suggestion to democrats that their party become just like yours so that you never have to put up with opposition anymore

* increased support of administration even after finding out programs you benefit from are being cut so tax cuts to the rich may continue, you don't mind, 'cause, hey, someday you're going to be rich too! (....r -i - i - i -i -i - ght...) Oh, yeah, and the all the rich "earned" it just like you if you work hard enough - remember, how much money you have determines how good a person you really are

* love the fact that the current administration picks on small inept dictatorships and fully support the "Patriotic Effort" despite the lies told to sell the war and the lack of similar follow - up tough action with those bigger countries that actually will retaliate with WMD's

* you "Walk with the Lord" just like the pres. but do not regularly attend church or abide by your denomination's practices

* Complain that Democrats cry but simply can't take criticism of the current administration's actions / policies or your views no matter how valid it might be


This disease is debilitating to the victim and to all his social relationships but can be cured incrementally via independent filtering of a variety of news media and an intensive 12 - Step anti - mind control program. Additional symptoms to be displayed soon by violent Zombias Foxus Dumbasses bloggers.
