"Plaster OT with Politics!" - Reality TV World Message Board Forums

Reality TV World Message Board Forums PLEASE NOTE: The Reality TV World Message Boards are filled with desperate attention-seekers pretending to be one big happy PG/PG13-rated family. Don't be fooled. Trying to get everyone to agree with you is like herding cats, but intolerance for other viewpoints is NOT welcome and respect for other posters IS required at all times. Jump in and play, and you'll soon find out how easy it is to fit in, but save your drama for your mama. All members are encouraged to read the complete guidelines. As entertainment critic Roger Ebert once said, "If you disagree with something I write, tell me so, argue with me, correct me--but don't tell me to shut up. That's not the American way."

"Plaster OT with Politics!"
Let's canvass OT with those wacky political ads that make you cringe, laugh, or cheer. In my birthplace, we have this patriotic-themed billboard, paid for by "Concerned Citizens of Richland County." -Handcrafted by RollDdice

13. "RE: Brevard NC Sept 29th"

The AK-47 may have been the Soviet Union's greatest invention.
One of the bulldozers uncovered the decomposing body of an enemy soldier, complete with AK-47. I happened to be standing right there, looking down into the hole and pulled the AK out of the bog. "Watch this, guys," I said, "and I'll show you how a real infantry weapon works." I pulled the bolt back and fired 30 rounds - the AK could have been cleaned that day rather than buried in glug for a year or so. That was the kind of weapon our soldiers needed, not the confidence-sapping M-16.
-said by David Hackworth, a US Army battallion commander during the Vietnam War.

Well, I couldn't find any photos, but last April one of our fine local truckers put up two anti-Obama signs in his yard. One had a smiling Obama on a cross, because -- well, it's not my logic -- Obama had elevated himself above God by signing an executive order affecting down time for truckers. I kid you not, you can read all about it!
http://tribstar.com/local/x234182023/Anti-Obama-display-draws-attention-of-Secret-Service
What are these executive order things, why was Obama allowed to invent them, we have a God-given Constitution! Still haven't figured out the logic but those are the highlights.
The other anti-Obama display depicted Obama in a coffin and was labelled Obama's ballot box.
More reading if you like.
http://tribstar.com/editorials/x1968184197/EDITORIAL-The-right-to-be-wrong
Anyway, at one point the fellow took down the original cardboard displays and replaced them with identical wooden displays, to better survive the rains. We then found ourselves in an extreme drought, people who look for supernatural causes in things may make of that what they will.
Sadly, the displays are no longer availale for viewing, they were found in violation of city ordnances for yards signs, ie. just too big. Content was not an issue.

Not that everyone believes that and are cussing the you-know-whos even though the current mayor is Republican.

You can say American has gotten worse in the last four years or you can say it's gotten better -- but based on the public billboards, yard displays, machine gun festivals, and everything else mentioned in this thread, I would appreciate no argument on the following:
It's a hell of a lot more rude.

Actually, Pharaoh was the Dear Leader of a government-controlled economy built on the backs of the poor and oppressed. Moses took His people away from that and into a land of prosperity, freedom and decentralized self-government.

33. "My Akin funny bone"

This guy just makes me laugh:
Republican Senate candidate Todd Akin (Mo.) told reporters on Thursday that his opponent, Democratic incumbent Claire McCaskill, was much more "ladylike" in her 2006 campaign against Sen. Jim Talent (R-Mo.) than she is in her campaign against Akin.
McCaskill “had a confidence and was very much more sort of ladylike,” Akin told a Bloomberg reporter at a stop on his "Common Sense" bus tour in Jefferson City, Mo. “In the debate we had Friday, she came out swinging, and I think that’s because she was threatened."
Ladylike? Why do I keep hearing his statements in Boss Hogg's voice?

Slavery was good for black people:
“… the institution of slavery that the black race has long believed to be an abomination upon its people may actually have been a blessing in disguise. The blacks who could endure those conditions and circumstances would someday be rewarded with citizenship in the greatest nation ever established upon the face of the Earth.” (Pages 183-89)
If you think slavery was bad, you should have seen Africa:
African Americans must “understand that even while in the throes of slavery, their lives as Americans are likely much better than they ever would have enjoyed living in sub-Saharan Africa.”
“Knowing what we know today about life on the African continent, would an existence spent in slavery have been any crueler than a life spent in sub-Saharan Africa?” (Pages 93 and 189)
Black people are ignorant:
“Wouldn’t life for blacks in America today be more enjoyable and successful if they would only learn to appreciate the value of a good education?” (Page 184)

Even though I'm not a big Joe Donnelly fan, there's no way I can vote for an idiot like Mourdock. (This is not the first time he's said or done something stupid.) Just as Sharron Angle blew a golden opportunity to remove Harry Reid and switch party control of a Senate seat, Richard Mourdock is singlehandedly giving Dick Lugar's seat to the Democrats.

Does it surprise anyone that someone in this election would directly imply their deity intends for women to be raped?
The pleasant thing about this argument is that in hypothetical theory, you could go up to Mourdope, break his face in a million places, and then tell the weeping bleeder that there's an entity which not only intended that to happen, but for the attacker to get off scot-free. And who is he to go against that?

96. "RE: Pregnancy from rape is something God intended."

LAST EDITED ON 10-24-12 AT 11:40 AM (EST)
I'm surprised you all find Mourdock's specific comment so horrifying. It's simply an extreme expression of Christian theology. The stupid part is that he believes in theocracy.
Let's review what Mourdock said. In a debate, he was asked about his opposition to abortion in cases of rape (N.B., that by itself should disqualify him). Mourdock said that he came to this conclusion because he realized that if someone became pregnant on account of rape, that was what God wanted to happen. This is the "controversial" statement, but it seems to me that it is completely consistent with the Christian view of an all-powerful God who nevertheless permits adversity to happen. It doesn't mean that God preordains rape, which I've seen alleged on Twitter -- but it does mean that God has the power to stop rape and chooses not to. In other words, God wants free will and the consequences that follow from permitting free will.
So I understand that claim, even though I strongly disagree, since I don't believe in God. But it's the further claim that this supports not having a rape exception in abortion law that I find disturbing. If God permits free will, why shouldn't the rape victim have free will not to carry the fetus to term? Since when did God say that the rapist gets free will but the rape victim does not? And why does God get the last say on laws? Have we returned to "Christian sharia"?
I thought Sherron Angle and Christine O'Donnell were as low as the Tea Party could go, but then they dredged up Todd Akin and Richard Mourdock. I guess the two nutty men were intended to establish gender equality among Tea Party nuts.

154. "RE: Pregnancy from rape is something God intended."

The latest polls are now leaning toward the Dem Donnelly vs the Pub Mourdock.
Mourdock alienated enough Pubs (and independents) with his defeat of Lugar and his most recent comments, that a sure-bet Pub Senate seat is in serious jeopardy.
I would have voted for Lugar vs Donnelly, but no way Mourdock is going to get my vote or the vote of some Pubs I know who are going to cross party lines this time around.
I'm predicting Mourdock becomes political history in this state, as in past history.

I certainly hope Donnelly defeats Mourdock because I genuinely hate the thought of Mourdock being my senator for the next six years. But while the polls are showing Donnelly ahead by 4 or 5 points, there's a disturbingly large block of Undecideds still out there, 12-13%, who could upset the pollsters calling this one.

Is it too much to hope that somehow the dueling press conferences will create some kind of reaction that would wipe both of them out of this timeline?

I'd be happy if the sound interference just nulled out their voices.
No idea what Allred's planning, but rumor has it that Donald's about to pull out divorce papers for the Obamss. To which I say 'You've spent the last four years arguing that no legal document connected to the President is real and now we're supposed to believe one because you have custody?'

I think he was supposed to tweet at noon.
TMZ is covering it.
Trump just made the "announcement" via a YouTube video -- saying, "If Barack Obama opens up and gives his college records and applications ... and if he gives his passport applications and records I will give to a charity of his choice -- Inner City Children of Chicago, American Cancer Society, AIDS Research ... a check immediately for 5 million dollars."

*shrug* So if the President hands them over, Donald claims they were altered, falsified, and Photoshopped (in that order) and doesn't make the donation. If the President doesn't hand them over, Donald claims there's something to hide and doesn't make the donation. Lose-lose.

Washington Post blog speculates:
"Some conservatives believe that Obama’s transcripts will prove that he was a bad student who benefited from affirmative action. The desire for Obama’s passport stems from a conspiracy theory that he used a non-American passport to travel to Pakistan in 1981. "
Um, haven't we had bad students who benefited from Daddy's money/alumni status action before be President?
If Daddy's money or status gives you an edge that's OK, just as long as his DNA didn't.
Do I really want to look up this conspiracy theory? Do they think he'd put something illegal/immoral/fattening on his passport application?

137. "RE: Silence from Allred."

No. Romney and Thomas Stenberg agreed to unseal Romney's testimony from the hearing on Staples' valuation. Turns out that the advice Romney gave was also the advice that he followed: he didn't buy all the shares of the stock that he could, and he sold half of them before the IPO.
Even some lefties realized that there was no story there. For example, here's a description of the testimony from the hack Boston Glub:
At Stemberg’s request, Romney testified in 1991 about what the value of Staples shares had been in early 1988, when Stemberg and Sullivan Stemberg reached a separation agreement.
Romney described Staples as dysfunctional at the time — a place with “surly” employees and slow checkout times. His testimony portrays the early days of Staples as rocky, riddled with operational problems and contentious board fights that left Romney angst-filled and pessimistic about the company’s prospects.
Bain Capital had bought into Staples at 80 cents per share in January 1986. When Staples sought prices of $2.10 and $2.90 per share on second and third rounds of investment, Bain Capital hesitated before making smaller investments. Staples was growing too slowly, and Stemberg was on thin ice with investors, Romney said.
“We were obviously proved wrong, ultimately, but the price we thought was high at that stage, given the company’s performance,” Romney testified.
Romney explained that he had been asked by Stemberg in 1990, at the beginning of the lawsuit, to retroactively appraise Staples shares at the time of Stemberg’s separation from his wife.
As a reference point, Romney said, he used the $2.90 price on preferred shares Staples had sold to investors in December 1987, the most recent sales period.
The shares awarded to Sullivan Stemberg were worth less than $2.90, Romney argued, because they carried fewer benefits. For example, Romney said, owners of the shares purchased in December 1987 would have received more money than a buyer of Sullivan Stemberg’s shares if Staples failed and its assets were liquidated.
Such protection is valuable to investors, Romney said. He put the fair market value of Sullivan Stemberg’s shares at about $1.75 apiece. In getting $2.25 and $2.48 per share in sales, Sullivan Stemberg had done well, Romney testified.

At this point in the election year, every. single. advertisement makes me cringe. On the treadmill last week, there were 14 political commercials within my 20-minute run. That is far too many.
The ones that make me laugh are all of the ones about guns. There was a fundraiser here recently. Honestly, I don't recall the candidate. It was local, but not so local. It was completely about exercising your rights as a gun owner, and it was over-the-top, but it made me laugh.

And he was horrible as Treasurer of State, with $526 million dollars in tax revenues placed in the wrong bank accounts, forcing local governments throughout the state, who should have received these funds, to cut back on services, including laying off personnel.

112. "RE: Does Ayak know about this?"

This is one we can't afford to lose. If you're not sure who "we" might be, I hope to make it clear.
This was paragraph 8 and I still didn't know what guy was going on about, any first year journalism student would know to make it clear what the point is in paragraph one sentence one if possible.
Still don't know the point but in paragraph 10 he diverts into history of the French Revolution. And the Dust Bowl. Okay, color me confusilated.
Paragraph 12. Gated communities, rare in his day, wall off whole counties in ours.
A-Ha, finally, a clew. Still don't know what this guy is going on about, but at least I have a clew.
Dust Bowl, Gated Communities.
Paragraph 14: But the coincidence that grabbed me most forcefully was the death in August of the science-fiction writer Harry Harrison, whose 1966 novel Make Room, Make Room became the 1973 film Soylent Green, with Charlton Heston and Edward G. Robinson. If you could call Soylent Green a cult film, surely the cult is very small. Yeah, let's confusilate a religeous cult and cult films, because cult is cult. Finally got the AyaK connection, though.
(In the book, notably, soylent green actually is... soy.)
Paragraph 17: Somehow goes off on a necrophilia tangent. Still don't know what this guy's point is, but hey wow color me disgusted.
Paragraph 20: Finally I know what this dumdum is ranting about. The obscenely rich.
Paragraph 23: The gospel of Ayn Rand is the perfect contradiction of everything ever preached by Jesus Christ. Bazinga! That should have been the lead sentence way back in paragraph one.
Not that I agree or disagree, just sayin' this joker should have taken journalism 101.
And the rest of it dissembles into a diatribe. Boy that was fun.

As an aside... it`s really nice to see Chris Christie and Barack Obama put their political affiliations aside and work together to ensure that the people of New Jersey get the help that they needed.
Meanwhile, Mitt is off campaigning in Ohio and the latest ads there were given a thumbs down as a “pants-on-fire”. The one thing his campaign was doing to help the victims of the hurricane was to ask for donations of food items to the Red Cross and other private charities ... one problem with that is that these agencies don`t accept donated food items for the most part, preferring cash in order to have flexibility to allocate needed resources.

I'm amazed that per-voter spending is that high in Nevada, but the spending in New Hampshire comes as no surprise, because the most of New Hampshire watches Boston TV for CBS, NBC and Fox (although Manchester has its own ABC affiliate), which means candidates have to run ads in Boston and pay Boston ad prices to reach NH, even though Massachusetts is as deep blue as states come.
At my house, I get both the Boston and Manchester, NH ABC stations -- and I won't even guess how much revenue the Boston ABC affiliate has lost relative to the Boston CBS, NBC and Fox affiliates. From the bombardment of election ads, my daughters not only know Scott Brown, Elizabeth Warren, Richard Tisei and John Tierney, but also Ovide Lamontagne, Maggie Hassan, Charlie Bass, Frank Guinta, Carol Shea-Porter, and (to a lesser extent) Ann McLane Kuster.

I guess that's typical of the cockeyed way that the NDP would look at the world.

Glad to hear that. Although, with Canada in the grips of Justin Trudeau-mania and Tom Mulcair's supposed move to the center, maybe the NDP isn't a real threat any longer.

I voted Conservative the last two elections because I think Harper has done a decent job in a difficult economic environment in light of the crash that started in 2008 under Bush affecting the border communities of Ontario near where I live. Windsor, Woodstock, Kitchener, Cambridge, Oakville, and Oshawa in particular have all been affected in myriad ways by the difficulties encountered by the auto plants in Detroit and Ohio, and other industries in Buffalo, to name a few.
Prior to Harper, I had always voted Liberal - it was practically beaten into me by family members on my maternal side as I'm related to a former Liberal prime minister.
As for Trudeau... I'll play a wait-and-see game before I decide if he's worth voting for, but so far I like the soundbites coming from him. Still a long way to go before he proves himself, though. Part of the problem is the Canadian balloting system where we vote for the MP in our riding and the number of MPs decide who gets to be prime minister - even if I wanted someone like Trudeau to be PM, the Liberal candidates in my particular riding have been remarkably incompetent over the past few elections. I live in a Conservative-dominated city so the other parties barely bother to campaign in certain areas.

During my ever-so-brief (and totally illegal) stay in Canada, I lived in Herb Gray's riding in Windsor and environs. In one sense, it was like the Electoral College in the US -- Herb Gray wasn't going anywhere, so no matter who you supported, your riding was going to go Grit.
I didn't know KW was Conservative-dominated.

169. "RE: Plaster OT with Politics!"

The three current MPs for my region (Stephen Woodworth, Harold Albrecht and Peter Braid) are all Conservative, including Albrecht who has won my riding three elections in a row.
Question for you... what's your thoughts on the electoral college system? I'm not crazy about the fact that a simple majority in each state is enough to give all of the state's electoral votes toward a candidate. Take California, for example, with their 55 -- wouldn't it be better to break up the state into 55 proportional voting regions and then tally up the results for each region independently to count toward each candidate's total? A NoCal farming region is going to give a very different result from a Palm Springs-type region, but you'd never know from all the 55 votes going to one candidate.
I've wondered what it'd be like here to have the prime minister popular vote counted separately from the vote for a MP - do you guys like doing it that way for President or would rather vote for a representative to sit in D.C. and the candidate with the most representatives (a.k.a. seats) becomes President?

Talk about opening up a can of worms! Basically, yeah, the Electoral College is an archaic system that we are more or less stuck with. There have been plenty of efforts to change it or do away with it over the centuries, with the exception of one (the 12th amendment to the Constitution) all have failed.
Anyway, to your specific question, it may look good in theory but in reality opening up the Electoral College to gerrymandering is an extremely bad idea.

I get what you mean about gerrymandering, but somehow a bipartisan committee could be set up to figure out a proportional balance in order to split up the regions - no funny boundaries, split them up by population and city parts. This just seems to be a better option than grouping them all into one bunch; something's got to be better than clump 55 or 29 or 18 electoral votes into one endorsement.
Not close to being the same thing, I know, but imagine if Canada had an electoral college system a la the USA. The province of Ontario has 37% of Canada's population and if you had all 12.8 million clumped together into a block of electoral votes going to one candidate, it'd be almost pointless to even bother holding a vote for any of the western provinces, especially if Quebec (23%) goes the same way as Ontario.

Nebraska does it by congressional districts, but I would, if they do proportional voting do it by state totals rather than give one more reason for the strange and unusual districting/mapping that goes on with all the other elections.
I think the problem is that other than a state with only a few votes it is hard to get any one state with a lot of electoral collage power to give up the winner takes all unless all the others do well

Yeah, the states could do as Pepe suggests if they wanted, but why would they want to? It would have to come from the federal government that everyone had to do that, which would mean it would have to be done by a constitutional amendment, which the states would probably refuse to ratify.
But assuming everyone agreed to do it, how would they do it? The rule is that each state has as many electoral college votes as it has U.S. Senate seats (2) plus U.S. House seats (determined by population), so congressional districts are out unless the 2 votes are done as winner take all. And by constitutional amendment (23rd) Washington DC has 3 EC votes. How do you divy up a city? How would NYC have to be divied up?
LA?

Paul Ryan Says Obama Would Compromise 'Judeo-Christian Western Civilization Values'
What about those of Americans who are not Judeo-Christian?
How can I vote for a man who speaks of narrow religious values instead of national values, the American values common to all of us Americans?
Any lingering (read: tiny) chance I might have had to vote for this man because of his fiscal conservatism has evaporated.

I'm afraid that after four more years of Barack Obama's incompetence, there won't be a country.
Not because of the stupid belief in the 2016: Obama's America film that Obama hates America or wants to destroy American values, but just because Obama is so incompetent that he typically makes the biggest blunders possible.
Right now, it seems likely that Democrats will retain the majority in the Senate, though, thanks to Todd Akin and Richard Mourdock throwing away seemingly-certain GOP seats in Missouri and Indiana, respectively. (As cahaya pointed out, not only hasn't Richard Lugar endorsed Mourdock, but neither has Mitch Daniels, and his stupidity cost himself a fair share of their voters). With Bill Nelson preparing to convincingly pound Connie Mack in Florida, there are only four seats left that I see as toss-ups: Massachusetts, Virginia, Wisconsin and (despite the PPP poll) Ohio. Democrats will have 49 seats without winning any of these four (assuming Jon Tester loses in Montana), and they're likely to at least split these four (I give Kaine and Sherrod Brown slight edges), giving them at least 51. . .
. . . which means nothing is going to happen without a bipartisan majority supporting it. As a result, Paul Ryan won't get to run anything except the Senate, because he doesn't seem too good at building such majorities. Instead, Romney will get to see if he really can create Clinton-esque comromises on a national scale. I wish him luck.
