I was not asking you to retract an opinion, I asked you to retract an unfair generalization, which I understood is fair game at this forum. You are entitled to your own opinion, you are not entitled to your own facts.

I didn't say $50k was chump change.
We're talking about life under Bush which is not the 80s. You're in CA, right? Flash your ass at your own risk. What you call an "unfair generalization" is my opinion, go back and read the fucking post. I called nothing a fact so work on your reading comprehension while your at it. I retract nothing. :p

No, I want you to get out of your microcosm and find out what the rest of the population think.
Birds of a feather flock together and haven't a clue what the other flockers think. UT gave you the data but you say it shouldn't be that way. That's your opinion but obviously the polls show the public doesn't agree with you. Fine, you're entitled to your view but don't try to represent it as the majority view. You may be the voice of reason or the cry in the wilderness but in the end, you are just you.

My quality of life has deteriorated under GWB, because of Katrina and the great COL. increase upcoming for next year. BTW I don't belive he's in the drivers seat anyway. WTF!

first off, i can;t believe I actually read one of your posts. second: people with good incomes usually have JOBS. that can severely hamper your ability to reflect upon anything other than getting through your day with only 24 hours available. I lived in a van for 3 months in a row, and while i did have to discover dinner everyday, i have never felt more at peace. Quote:

Maybe you should go back to living in your van. Quote:
Again, it is merely intellectual laziness to go back to an argument that is at least a year old and which I haven't even set forth in this thread, instead of dealing with the issues that I have raised in the here and now. If you want to jump all over someone about entitlements, why don't you jump on Patrick? He raised that issue in regard to his son, I didn't. |

well, for starters, his son doesn't whine incessantly on a message board that i frequent. And, I like Spode.

And. I didn't say I read your posts. i said i accidentally read ONE of your posts. I must have forgotten to look at the author, and as it was a relatively short one, i was through it before I realized what I was doing. cock.

Do you hear a hew and cry from ANY economic strata other than the environmentalists that make it their preoccupation if not occupation? GWB has given us plenty of serious shit to worry about, very scary stuff, and the bunnies have taken a back seat. Like it or not that's reality....or should I say priority.

I am more worried about the war in Iraq, the economy, and the loss of civil liberties than I am the environment, anyhow. I think things won't go to hell environmentally for another 30 -50 years, at which point, I'll most likely be dead and buried, and since I don't have any children, my concern for the environment is rather abstract, at best. I leave it to the young 'uns to worry about the bunnies coming home to roost. |
