Pertaining to the short 03/10/09 duel
between A.Nonymous and North to Home.
A.Nonymous made general comments about three groups of people who will still feel entitled to be on the public dole under O’s regime and also said that anybody wanting to get ahead in this country needs to be able to speak standard English and not Ebonics, Spanish, ... etc.
North to Home felt personally attacked, resorted to personal name-calling and hurled accusations such as: Inflammatory, blatantly racist, underlying hatred, prejudice and hatred of all people different from you, cowardly, insulting, nasty, racist bigoted rants, sickening, [more bigotry, more hatred, more prejudice, blah, blah, blah.]
I’ve been waiting for others to weigh in on this but nobody wants to touch it. It’s a tough job but somebody’s gotta do it. So I will.
North to Home: The only one making personal attacks is you. Toughen up, baby. To participate on this board you have to develop rhino hide. [No that is not a slur against anybody with African roots. Don’t start up with me about it.] This is a place for reasoned political opinion and discussion, not angry overreaction. Chill. Don’t post when you are so obviously angry. Anyone who resorts to name-calling in a political argument needs to work on objectivity. We argue, we don’t attack.
A.Nonymous: You used the term ‘bitter 200-year descendents of ex-slaves’ and the word Ebonics, both of which got North to Home’s knickers in a twist. [Not exactly a diplomatic choice of words and by my math only about 144 years since the end of the Civil War.] But the pertinent word was ‘bitter’. I agree that those still bitter about slavery after 100+ years and about segregation after 40+ years need to examine their own prejudices, then get on with improving their own lives and their children’s lives. None of us on this board has ever bought or sold another human being and I am not accepting collective guilt because a centuries-ago ancestor may have.
North to Home: You are apparently still angry about your father's treatment while serving in the segregated US military during the Korean War 50 years ago. Yet he was able to bring you up right, educate you and teach you the value of hard work. Weren't his experiences what made it possible for him to do that?
Also, too bad of grammar to post...

spoken by the grammar police.

Typos and grammar gaffes.

this is a 'typo', yours is a bad grammar mistakes, get it, or not yet?..
Can't you even differ between those 2? Shall I explain it once more, for those with a slow brain, with an IQ below 90?
Dear poster: at least get the grammar correct in

I forgot: Study some English grammar and spelling..nm

Actually it's quite amusing
to hear people curse then tell you you aren't a Christian in the same breath.
It is rather amusing, isn't it?

QUITE AMUSING..
I found it quite amusing watching it over and over and over again (as much as the news channels play it). Gotta admit GW sure can bob and weave LOL!!!
What's even more amusing is watching
your political ideology die a slow painful death.
I didn't post the original article not that you would believe me. As far as the rest of your rant I don't give a flip...and that's putting mildly.
I just find it amusing .....
that the same kind of journalism, as long as it puts forward liberal junk as opposed to conservative junk, the site is fine. As I explained in a later post, I do not read Front Page and did not "check it out" to see which way it leaned, as I already knew the facts. That was the first site I saw who printed the facts. I posted from there because it covered the topic of the thread. When Taiga complained, I went and copied the same thing from Common Dreams, an extremely liberal page. My point is, if something is factual, it does not matter which side of the political fence prints it. Some of you are just so fast to pile on because of the site something comes from, without even bothering to check the facts before assuming if it is on a "conservative" site it has to be a lie. What is up with that anyway?
I just find it amusing that
some people have to battle racism with racism. Instead of just telling the OP that you don't agree with their post, you reply with a racist joke of your own. Boy...that REALLY proves a point, doesn't it?
It is amusing and very enlightening......sm
Senator Feingold (Democrat) has publicly announced that Obama needs to REIGN IN the spending; that he is out of control!! 
I actually find it rather amusing...(sm)
for the most part. However, the way these people think never fails to amaze me.
"First they laughed and then they died" -- that sounds like something out of a terrorist's memoirs.
Let's try the pic again...LOL... 
what I find oddly amusing is that
the ones whining are all in states that have state income tax. Isn't that kind of like having a bunch of kids and only the one that gets the most money is always broke?
thanks for the article. That was highly amusing. nm

If you find this all so entertaining and amusing,
the sleep deprivation, the bugs and the waterboarding in prisons, there is no point to disuss this with you.
How can you compare your insomnia with sleep deprivation in a prison used as torture?
Why can't you sleep? In your own home, in your cozy bed, surrounded by our loving family?
Something must be wrong with you. It seems that you cannot cope with your duties.
Amusing to see those elitists cry "hate!" at every turn:)
Let's cut the crap. Republican apologists are some of the nastiest, most condescending and basically vicious debators on the boards. So while you're running around crying Bush haters! and insinuating that they are little more than drooling fools, you might keep in mind that your astounding and deliberate hypocrisy is far uglier than any natural, normal anger at an incompetent leader could ever be.
I find it amusing how a bunch of MTs sitting
around in their robes typing all day have suddenly become the political pundits of the world, interjecting their wisdom (often found on the internet) and view points with such ferociousness. Alert the media! These women are a force to be reckoned with!
