An interesting twist.

As a wacko extremist, you routinely forget relevant facts. Once we discussed your wife's gonorrhea, you suddenly stopped doing incendiary attacks. I do not apologize for slapping you back to civility using the only tone you understand. Posts as equally nasty finally made you civil - for a while. Wackos forget lessons from history. Why should it be necessary for for him to learn again?

Redux has accurately described your political agenda:

To ignore the Clinton "finding" to kill Bin Laden, the Clarke memo, and the disbanding of Alec Station and the diversion of resources from Afghanistan to Iraq.....is the revisionist history and is nothing short of irresponsible and inaccurate.

morethanpretty also described Classicman's political agenda in Choosing network adapter in the Technology board.

The cheapshot at TW before he ever even posted in this thread was very unwarranted and bad taste. I don't appreciate it in the politics threads (any of the cheap shots taken by anyone), but shit like that needs to stay in those threads. I generally stay away from them because I don't like all the personal attacks. I hate that the politics threads are so immature and unpleasant because of it,

Why does classicman post cheapshots? It works. It makes others (you) not challenge wacko politics. It makes you zone out. Wackoman was caught and exposed lying. Overt and intentional lying. He posted what the political agenda ordered him to believe: Tsonis’ paper as proof of global cooling. Then his lie was exposed by facts:
http://www.cellar.org/showthread.php...nic#post625815

This sudden climate change was not the point of his paper. Tsonis' paper is about a new simulation technique that maybe only applies to weather changed anthropogenically. Credibility is in the mathematics of his simulation - not in the simulation's result.

wackoman has ratcheted up his personal attacks to a frequency not seen since we had to discuss his family gonorrhea. Cheap shots. Lying. He even denies how his beloved president all but protected bin Laden. Classicman wants Obama to fail. To prove his reality – more aggressive insults and personal attacks.

It was necessary to be as nasty as classicman - to restore civility. Need we relive history? Unchallenged nastiness is how Hitler gained power. Classicman is doing what he was told to do. Nasty cheapshots work because others (ie morethanpretty) will zone out. Do not challenge his lies and personal attacks. Cheapshots work. This time his lies were flagrantly exposed in the Tsonis example. So he escalates his cheapshot attacks to now constant frequency. He forgets why it was necessary to discuss his family gonorrhea. A disease directly traceable to his political agenda.

Yes, but you see that actress with downs syndrome isn't a politician trying to hustle a buck, so she's allowed to have a sense of humor.

Thanks for that link, Shel.

Here's the text, for those who didn't watch the video:

'Family Guy' Actress Responds To Sarah Palin's Criticism

My name is Andrea Fay Friedman. I was born with Down syndrome. I played the role of Ellen on the "Extra Large Medium" episode of Family Guy that was broadcast on Valentine's day. Although they gave me red hair on the show, I am really a blonde. I also wore a red wig for my role in " Smudge" but I was a blonde in "Life Goes On". I guess former Governor Palin does not have a sense of humor. I thought the line "I am the daughter of the former governor of Alaska" was very funny. I think the word is "sarcasm".
In my family we think laughing is good. My parents raised me to have a sense of humor and to live a normal life. My mother did not carry me around under her arm like a loaf of French bread the way former Governor Palin carries her son Trig around looking for sympathy and votes.

And there's more...

‘Family Guy’ Voice Actor Says Palin ‘Does Not Have a Sense of Humor’

Q.When you get asked to play characters who have Down syndrome, does that make you at all uncomfortable?

A.No, I’m proud of it. I’m not embarrassed. But mostly, it doesn’t matter if you have Down syndrome. Really, it just matters to have a different challenge.

Q.When did you find out about the reaction that the episode elicited from Sarah Palin and her family?

A.[laughs] That I did not even know about until my mom told me, “You’re on Channel 4!” And when I watched on Channel 4, on “Extra,” and I saw Sarah Palin with her son Trig. I’m like, “I’m not Trig. This is my life.” I was making fun of Sarah Palin, but not her son.

Q.Do you agree with what she and her daughter Bristol were saying, that the character and the jokes were insulting to people with Down syndrome?

A.It’s not really an insult. I was doing my role, I’m an actor. I’m entitled to say something. It was really funny. I was laughing at it. I had a nice time doing voiceover. It was my first time doing a voiceover, and I had fun.

I think this speaks to my point about whether the show was offensive or not. As for the S____ P____, the attention whore who is trying to ride the free publicity bandwagon, the reference to her carried neither positive nor negative connotations, as far as I can tell.
Another non-event.

Interesting. Thanks for the info, Flint. I wonder if Palin knew that it was an actress with Down's doing the voice-over?

Is this the same TV show that did this? He sniffs her perfume. Says it makes her smell like Elizabeth Taylor. Then says it smells like a combination of bourbon and vicodin. Why is that also not causing major turmoil? Apparently the public figure called Palin is more 'special' than Elizabeth Taylor.

Is old Liz even still alive? Never mind. I soundly protest on behalf of druggies and alcoholics everywhere. We need more understanding and more access to our drugs of choice. We don't need these sly barbs equating us to Liz Taylor. I bet when I tell my AA group about this tonight, they'll all be joining me at the bar. Fttttttt!

She outlived her good friend Michael.

Who is your favorite vicodin addict? Taylor or House? (Palin is banned from this list due to threat of lawsuit or public outcry.)
