Palin Stalker
Someone is stalking Sara! Oh my! What does momma grizzly do? Does she mawl the stalker with her mighty claws? No. Does she shoot the stalker? No. She whines to the authorities, and an activist judge grants a restraining order. So much for "keep the government out of my life". Like most of her kind, she talks the talk, but can't walk the walk.

You fail to realize that no one wants ZERO Gov't. This is the type of thing that the authorities should be doing. seriously WTF?

A restraining order won't protect her, other than her body guards can call the cops if this guy just makes an appearance, rather than wait until he does something threatening.
Of course she could have said, 'Bring it on, punk', and ambushed him.

That was on the hyperbolic side, but the cry of socialism from the right is too.

Now that's the pot calling the kettle black.

No one. That's pretty extreme. And inaccurate.

Between Sarah Palin and her 18-year-old stalker who threatens her with murder -- if you find yourself on the side of the stalker, the time has come for some personal reflection.

Some hear only extremist rhetoric. Others see extremists and extremism as the enemy of all people. Moderates are necessary for the advancement of mankind.
"Liberals vs. conservatives" is what wackos are taught to think. Then everything is heard only in extremes. Unfortunately, wacko extremists have been and are encouraged by enemies of mankind - Beck, Hitler, bin Laden, Fox News, Limbaugh, Joseph McCarthy, Likud, etc. The educated among us do not hear only extremes. Every above listed extremist uses nasty attacks to recruit supporters. Moderates learn from responsible sources including science, three responsible TV network news, NY Times, The Economist, those who always include many 'reasons why' with their conclusions, and from those who first learn facts and numbers before knowing anything. Many years ago, an extremist read only Chapter One of Thomas Barnett's book. Saw only what he wanted to see. Then posted extremist political rhetoric here. After over a year of overt challenges and accusations, he finally read Chapter Two. And still he did not get it. He could only see extremes. He completely misunderstood Barnett's warnings. Today, we are suffering those ignored warnings because extremists could not bother to learn Military Science 101. George Jr, et al never understood well proven concepts delineated in Barnett's book. An extremist political agenda would not let them see reality. All they heard were the extremes. Extremism. What Bill O'Reilly said repeatedly on national TV because he is also a wacko extremist. And because he gets popular support (and wealth) by promoting wacko extremist agendas. Extremists believe because Fox News (Fair and Balanced) told them how to think. It must be true. All they hear are the extremes. Extremists do not even remember that TARP was created by George Jr. Extremists have been told what to believe - reality be damned. Extremists: a mosque in lower Manhattan is Muslims again attacking America. Reality. That mosque is more desirable than nearby whore houses and betting parlors. Extremists simply ignore those other establishments to only hear the extremes. It was never about "liberal vs conservative". It was always about "moderates vs extremists". That stalker is just another example of an extremist told what to think. No different than another who was told to kill Rabin because Likud wanted to destroy the Oslo Accords. There are only informed moderates (a world in perspectives) and extremists (a world of 'good vs evil'). |

the problem is extremists don't see themselves as such and oftentimes try to prove they are not with long-winded excessive posts pointing fingers at others.

Tw, remember, if there is any spare capacity in your brain at all, that your opinions are neither neutral nor natural. The man who most cries "wacko extremist" is the man who dwells in that place and is most intimately familiar with it -- and you are most insistent about trumpeting that.
It's why you're single, and it's why I think you're a creep.

Hey, reminding everyone how dysfunctional tw really is is a public service. You should diligently do it yourself, as a means of maintaining the Cellar's good mental hygiene. Consider it an act of faith and charity. That's two out of three.
It would be a more hopeful endeavor than your tedious and unsuccessful attempts at the put-down. You're not going to get me to bow before you yourself fall to your knees. You never did recognize how lamely invidious you were being, and you still don't. Now, eschewing that lameness would improve both your functioning and your general estimation around the Cellar. Esteem comes with being a class act. Invidiousness will not cut it.
