Real Name: The Rogue Poet
Bio:
Bio:
Programmer, poet, progressive, pot advocate, pugnacious liberal.
Living in America is like being trapped on an island half-filled with crazy people.
Trying very hard to get out of America and move to a free country.
Reading: Moby Dick--Melville; Confessions of Nat Turner--Styron; Fathers & Sons--Turgenev; Ishmael--Daniel Quinn; Influence--Cialdini.
Remember: 9/11 was an inside job.
Remember: Republicans make rich people richer.
Latest Poem: Doorways & Beginnings
Such a little painting I live in
A restricted milieu
Half the canvas left to finish
A portrait or a landscape?
I can't decide
It started so well
My palette was full of colors
Rosy red cheeks and golden tomorrows
Some rakish fiend marred the
canvas one time when my back
was turned
Smeared my confidence
Blotched my sense of trust
It's never been the same
But I think there's still a chance
To salvage a masterpiece

Funny how one of the most destructive eras of our recent history is also one of the most romantic.

All the cons are rooting for Osama now.
The America-haters.
I'm sorry I falsely accused you. I was so sure that it was you that I didn't even take a second to check. No hard feelings.

It wasn't me who downvoted your comments.
You really are a piece of work.
I went off on Deedub because I told him over and over not to bother me on my profile page.
I'm now asking the same of you.
I had to ask him three or four times to stop bugging me.
Wonder how many times I'll have to ask you?

Between yesterday and today someone went through my recent comments and downvoted nearly all of them. I wonder who that was. It hurt my feelings oh so much. *sniff*

First, it's spelled "propaganda" you dumb fucking redneck. Figures you're too goddamned lazy to check your spelling.
What does the anchorwoman say in the video at 1:15?
"The email's author is anonymous." Yet, true to your dipshit, shit-kicker bones, you have attributed these emails to the Obama campaign. Why am I not surprised? Oh, yeah, that's not why you posted this. You're still an idiot, but I stand corrected.
Then Obama says "I don't take from oil companies or washington lobbyists" which, according to this video, is true.
So what's you're fucking point? That we liberals have to hold Obama to a "higher standard"? Which is another way of saying that Obama can't play the game like your hero, McCain?
People like you have turned this country to shit. Fuck off and die.
Look, nothing personal. Sorry we disagree on the cluster bomb thing. You seem very fired up. I'm going to drop it. Feel free to get the last word/downvote in .. etc.
Take it easy.
Nothing personal, man. It's okay to butt heads.
I'm the kind of person that can seem kind of hot on one thread, and totally forget it on the next.
See you around the Sift.
You don't see the similarities between your own comments and this woman's remarks.

Fat, stupid, and fundamentalist is the Republican way of life.

I missed the "Quoted from link" part.
I hope you can forgive me.

You're full of shit, Zonbie.
I can't believe how pissy-pants the cons have become over this.
Talk about reactionary aggrandizement.
What the fuck Rougy - take the time to read my comment properly before you call me out...

Blankfist, I've lost a lot of respect for you.
You are lying to yourself. You are ignoring reality.
Neoconservatism is based, overwhelmingly, on the teachings of Leo Strauss, and the fact that you chose to leave that name out of your definition says a lot about your honesty, or lack of it.
Does this sound left wing to you?
Strauss wrote that "just because Germany has turned to the right and has expelled us (Jews), it simply does not follow that the principles of the right are therefore to be rejected. To the contrary, only on the basis of principles of the right – fascist, authoritarian, imperial – is it possible in a dignified manner, without the ridiculous and pitiful appeal to ‘the inalienable rights of man’ to protest against the mean nonentity (Nazism).
