[quote="Tap":3s020934]Things were also exciting when psteal was ingame. When there aren't groups or group that are closed, solo'ing can, at time, be boring/frustrating.

Yeah, good old pthiefs, always keeping us alert...Oh, they just stole my keychain, hahaha, how funny... :roll:

But by far my favourite was one of your former posts....

Internet blocking in Australia... hmm, no but... reading on...

Now internet blocking in Australia is linked with similarities between Obama's "volunteer peace force" - (is that overtones to Hitlers SA as well I sense?)

Oh noes, this guy is real bad! We believe you!

And there you have it, how Australia's internet censorship has lead to the rise of Obama, a Nazi like Dictator who knows nothing about the economy.

Congragulations, you've completely missed the point. You seem to think I am bashing Australia by asking about something I heard. If I wanted to bash Australia, I could point out how just today, a news article gave details how a person with down syndrome was denied citizenship due to the increase cost of healthcare to the community. Now, I didn't realize there was an epidemic of such persons seeking citizenship to your lovely island. But did I bash ya? No. You seem to be unable to collect your thoughts and respond accordingly, perhaps you should take a break and go "pound one out"

So what is the platform of the Republican party. Can anyone actually tell me that? It seems to me they aren't for anything, they're just against not being in power.

And what are you trying to imply by your sarcasm about this guy being racist and crazy? I don't get it. I don't think this guy is particularly intelligent or interesting. He's just another moron like Joe the Plumber and the log cabin republicans and all you right wing jokers that post your nonsensical blather on the crier.

I think this guy explains a viewpoint of some Democratic voters. What can I get? The historical icon JFK said "Ask not what your country can do for you, but what you can do for your country". The Democrat party has turned its face to show its ass to JFK. Let's vote for more welfare and more redistribution. Let's take money from someone with 2 jobs and give it to someone with no job. Let's tax big business and force them to raise prices on consumer staples, but we will promise to raise minimum wage which in turn also raises the cost of cheap goods.

Im not sure what I have posted that is nonsensical. Also I cannot speak for the Republican party. I thought they were for less government and free markets, capitalism and the Constitution. However these recent years have made me rethink the position. I don't vote for people who think that high taxes will solve all the problems. We tried it, other countries try it, it doesn't work. I am beyond voting over abortion/gun issues. They are going to do what they want anyways and the Republicans could give a shit about either issue. If they did they would have done something in the last 20 years about it.

I thought Republicans were for less spending and less taxes, less federal government. States rights and allowing local governments to see their own tax dollars instead of it going to a big city project. I thought Republicans were against socialization of business and markets. I was wrong. I voted for Ron Paul. Go ahead and poke fun of me. He was one of the few people who actually voted against the war. Did Obama vote against the war? No he wasn't even in federal office at the time. Dr. Paul actually believes in something called sound money. That is where the government, regardless of which party is in power, cannot using monetary policy to deflate the currency, hence raising inflation. Seriously look it up. As long as we continue to the the politicians print money the rising inflation will only make the poor suffer even more due to rising costs of every day goods. I vote for less spending, less printing money, less of your hands in my pot.

What is up with the attacks on poor Joe. All he did was ask a question about the Obamas tax plan. If your version of free speech is to attack some labor worker over a question.... We better keep our mouths shut our else. When did opposing viewpoints turn into such a hatred/ignorance of the point.

You can call me a joker if it makes you feel better. The methods of attack and ridicule don't work on me because I could care less.

In closing anyone on here with an opposing viewpoint has yet to state it. There has been blatant name calling and otherwise bullshit tossed around and that is it. Nobody here, and I repeat Nobody can explain how raising taxes on corporations will benefit the working class. The corporations will simply raise the cost of the goods, slash workforce, or move operations overseas. All three of these items are detrimental to the economy. In theory the government gets more revenue, in practice money switches hands less and is therefore taxed less times. There is no way to argue that raising taxes and basically stealing from one person will solve any problems. All it will accomplish is less people trying to make the big money which will mean less money for the government to tax in the end. If they took everyone in the country's wealth it wouldn't be enough to run the government for more than a year. Then with everyone poor there would be no one to offer a job, or even charity. Prove to me that the government has a better plan and can implement any plan better than Katrina or the Iraq war. Blaming Bush won't work, there are 535 other people involved plus UN Charters and other legal framework that was started in the Clinton administration. Seriously give some facts about another country or government that has socialized(stole) its peoples wealth. When a mass exodus of capital occurs due to scared business from socialist policies you can continue to blame Bush.

I try to argue facts not toss blame and post bs.

There's this thing called the middle class and it is not a natural result of the 'hidden hand of the market'; its an artificial and necessary construct. Without it, we exist in a feudal system where workaday serfs labor for the benefit of corporate lords. You don't agree? You think the economy performed better under Bush than Clinton? You think the Bush tax cuts for the ultra-wealthy were good for the nation as a whole and should be made permanent?

And by the way, posting a bunch of lies and bs about the liberal point of view (your 'facts') is just as much an insult as my calling you stupid. So don't even try to play the victim card. You've always been an unapologetically abrasive. To hear you whine about name calling, just makes me laff. If you can't take it. Don't dish it out. Sooner or later you right wing nutjobs are going to realize that the neo-conservative movement was on the wrong side of history.

Joe the plumber is just some putz who's too slow to realize he'd benefit more under Democratic leadership. The Republican party made him their pet and is sending him around the country in a van to share his uninformed point of view on the economy and foreign policy. Maybe they should make him a cabinet member. Apparently education, inteligence, and experience don't count for anything in Republican circles. Just look at Sarah Palin. Anyone who thinks this woman is qualified for the office of the president of the United States of America is deluded.

I could post blunt hardcore facts that prove what I want to say. And some will turn around and punch Rush Limbaugh sized holes in them. So I will spare my time and energy on that, and skip to the next step. To paraphrase Right Wing politics of the last 8 years have failed, free market capitalism has failed, and this country appears to be choosing to move in another direction.

Joe the Plummer, isnt even a Joe his name is Samuel. He his behind $1800 to the IRS on his taxes. So Samuel the I work for a plumming company just doesnt want to pay taxes. The question he asked is IF he ever buys a company which he currently cant. Lame lame lame. I look forward to earning $250,000 profit after expenses and my new tax bracket.

I could care less what corporations are taxed, they will move jobs overseas taxed or not to make more money for themselves. They also shouldnt be stashing money in offshore accounts. Corporations and CEO's need a kick in the ass to start creating American jobs. Cutting their taxes for the last 8 years put us where we are now. Didnt work.

So where does this all end up. No-one here is going to convince a majority to think the same way they do.

I suggest to everyone in this thread to enjoy the game that you came here to play. Spout the politics somewhere else. You can do it, and this game can be a fun place to relax and escape away from the political issues in this world.

Mud hard, have fun.

[quote="juggleblood":212sliat]..He's just another moron like Joe the Plumber..[/quote:212sliat]
Explain why 'Joe the Plumber' is a moron. Because he dare asked a question that exposed Obama for the socialist he is? Other than that, I can see no reason whatsoever for you calling him a moron, other than your apparent vile and rabid hatred for anyone that does not support Obama. Please, correct me if I'm wrong.

@ Medios:
McCain I do not believe represents the Republican party or conservatism. The main thing working for him right now is that he is less left than Obama. If it weren't for that one point, quite likely the majority of Republicans wouldn't be voting for him either - many consider him a Republican in name only. That is my impression anyway.
One other thing Medios, don't hold your breath waiting for any rationalization from a Obama cultist, beyond 'McCain is Bush' or 'Obama is a great orator', followed by some ad hominem attacks. LOL.

@ Juggleblood:
Regarding Taxes and the middle class - explain how 95% of workers will pay less taxes under Obama, when currently 40% of workers pay zero tax. Please, I'd love to know. Also you might want to look up a little thing called payroll tax and then take another look at Obama's plans in more detail, if he'll let anyone see them. Some may end up paying less [i:212sliat]income[/i:212sliat] tax, but all will end up with less take-home pay because Obama has tricked you by reclassifying some of the tax into payroll tax instead of income tax, which, by the way, you get no exemption on. But I guess you'd rather call me a liar and a racist.

@ Whoever:
I don't give a flying fcuk if Joe the Plumber is a bathroom attendant, it really doesn't matter, what matters is what Obama responded to him, which no Obama cultist will address, and when pressed, usually will go on some screaming tirade against all Republicans and how stupid and ignorant everyone is but themselves and their fellow cultists, as we have seen on this very thread. How dare 'Joe' ask a question that caused Obama to expose himself for what he is! Blasphemy! Next you'll be wanting to have him publicly stoned (and I don't mean with drugs).

Damn, I really didn't want to post on this thread again.

You can't define a whole class as there are extremes in each case however for the most part:

1) Republicans don't want a handout from the government. They prefer to get things done on their own and not be babysat.

2) Democrats want to resort to name calling and threats when you don't agree with them. When they are cornered they tend to rely on some type of "bias" card to get themselves out of the focus.

3) Republicans don't want to censor people and keep information one-sided. They are content that anyone can voice an opinion without retribution.

4) Democrats oddly enough only want information that aids their own agenda. Any bump in the road and all hell breaks loose. Say what you want about Joe the plumber, he managed to throw a curve ball to Osama that the media didn't have time to throw a blanket on. Response? Attack Joe the plumber's credibility and character assassination. On a side note, Osama having 3 major newspapers thrown off his airplane because they didn't support him....all I can say is *snicker*

5) As far as McCain is concerned, he is definitely less of the two evils...he may be doing a better job of hiding his background but he doesn't blatanty associate with known terrorist. He doesn't claim to be a Christian in name only. He doesn't claim to have all the answers and wave a magic wand and *poof* all our problems disappear.

I could go on but I agree whats the point... Wednesday morning is going to be interesting...already it is being reported that should Osama win, the stock market will take a huge plunge...that nasty capitial gains tax that Osama is promising.

oh yeah 6) as far as I know McCain isn't wanting to punish anyone for being successful although I could be wrong

On the plus side...Bush could always declare martial law and stay in office!!!

He is an idiot because he oversimplifies complex issues on which he really doesn't know anything and says stupid things. Much like you when you rant about Obama being a socialist and call all his supporters cultists despite the fact that the majority of country is rallying behind him for very pragmatic reasons or when you repeat the ridiculous things the McCain campaign is saying about Obama being a terrorist or a commie or that he's going to ruin the economy with high taxes, when the rates he's proposing are lower than Ronald Reagan's. A large percentage of the geniuses in the state of Texas still believe that Obama is a secret Muslim. McCain is losing because the only demographics that still support him are the rich, and the retarded.

Edit: the description tap offers of republicans is a farce. The republican party is looting the treasure as we speak, the amount of money that is going to pay dividends and corporate bonuses is just evil. My source on this is Lou Dobbs, a CONSERVATIVE PUNDIT.

Seriously that is your answer? Well I thank you for proving my point.
Just for the hell of it:

[i:387taust]Joe: I'm getting ready to buy a company that makes about $250,000 … $270-$280,000 a year.

Obama: All right.

Joe: Your new tax plan's gonna tax me more, isn't it?[/i:387taust]

Clearly, an idiot saying stupid things. How did I not see it? :roll:

Of course no comment on Obama's reply, which is what the issue actually is.

Thanks for reminding me why I should not have entered this thread again.

What was a lie? He said he was [i:29uicns0]planning[/i:29uicns0] on buying a company that could make roughly that much money, and again, who gives a fcuk if he was making it up, the whole point of this being news was what [i:29uicns0]Obama[/i:29uicns0] responded, which you completely ignore, as usual, and instead attack some random guy for daring to ask the question.

Really, your responses speak volumes more to make my point than I could ever say.

Ahhh somebody stop me!
