Not being from the US allows me to read through these posts somewhat impartially. One thing I notice across just about all of them - and even the US media in general - is that the robotic agreement comes from both sides of the political spectrum.
I even notice that well presented ideas from both sides often get diluted by unnecessary characterisations and name calling. Do those of you who participate in that manner actually hope to convince anyone that your argument is more sound or are you just chest thumping?
Whatever happened to proper debate?
Why would Popeye return to dignify comments made by useful idiots? He said his piece and he's out. I'd do the same thing.
Oh yeah, and medical, you forgot to post the part where Alinsky was a Marxist who devised immoral tactics for gaining power. You know... Obama's teacher.

right, we should strive to devise immoral tactics for gaining power from these guys instead...
Slightly OT, but there is one other thing you might be able to notice which most Americans just don't get.
Every Democrat in the US is convinced that the Republican politicians are lying cheating money-grabbing manipulative scumbags that don't care about people's lives but only cater to special interest groups.
Every Republican in the US is convinced that the Democrat politicians are lying cheating money-grabbing manipulative scumbags that don't care about people's lives but only cater to special interest groups.
But once you start talking about the foreign policy, then in one instant, all those Republican and Democrat leaders (the lying cheating money-grabbing manipulative scumbags that don't care about people's lives but only cater to special interest groups) turn into decent human beings. And when they act on the world arena on behalf of the US as a whole, they never do anything "bad." It's always someone else's fault for "starting it".
You can see the traces of this fallacy in pretty much every conversation with an American about world affairs. They would spew crap about the "other party" endlessly, but would completely refuse to understand that the same US Government fucks people over far away from the US Soil, and does it with a lot more brutality.
It's as if the American politicians are only "evil" when dealing with domestic issues that affect their own citizens. But once those same politicians make decisions that affect people elsewhere, then all "bad" is done strictly out of necessity, and never by choice or for profit.
These foreigners are convinced that the US is behind all of their problems. But they readily and willingly collect billions of dollars in US aid.
Who doesn't see this fallacy?
This bears repeating. Over and over.
It's also worth remembering Bush was pretty clear after 9/11 that we aren't at war with Islam (or Muslims, for that matter). Seems to me a lot of Americans have forgotten that.
I can't believe I'm agreeing with Ar Scion in a political thread. No less one where we flamed each other.
political internet arguments = fail
tits = win
Thank you for your service to our country.
Which foreigners? Do you think the US sends aid to every single country out there?
More importantly, do you actually think it's done out of kindness of "your" hearts? Seriously?
Let me illustrate my original point with some examples of "aid" and helping "those in need" when it comes to domestic affairs, and some common responses by the "half" of the country that "isn't buying it".
Minimum wage is not meant to help the struggling working people, but is simply a mechanism for the unions to rake in more money through minimum wage "multiples" contracts. The unions, in turn, bribe the politicians (with money and/or votes) to keep it going.
The health care reform will force yet another tax onto the productive members of the society without yielding any actual benefits. As a matter of fact, the overall quality of the health care is likely to decrease. Death panels hurr-durr.
When it comes to domestic issues LotsOfZeros would probably be the first to point out the same arguments I posted above if some "libtard" dared to talk about how it's done for the good of everyone.
Yet, when it comes to "helping" those in need and the foreign policy, what do we have? He is eager to start munching on your balls right then and there.
(LotsOfZeros, thanks for helping me prove my point, BTW.)
Who is questioning the motives behind this "help" to other countries, the true motives behind it? And whether it actually helps or hurts.
The real fallacy here is the fact that you failed to either state your agreement with my point or to post a logical rebuttal. Instead, you just went on a tangent. But that's another matter altogether.
People lie about being in the military all the time. Growing up on military bases I routinely met douche-bags would claimed to be serving, but they weren't even smart enough to give a real unit when asked. I just ran into some guy a few weeks ago who claimed to be a Drill Instructor at Ft. Wood (where I spent most of my teenage years) and I knew he was full of shit. He couldn't even name the street he lived on. I later found out he had just moved to town and was wanted in South Carolina for armed robbery.
Anyway, people do it all the time.

Anyone who brags about "racking up the muslim kills" either didn't serve, or served and didn't actually see action. Almost every one of my friends from high-school is now in one branch or the other and most are in Iraq or Afghanistan. One of them just came back last month with one less leg. The ones who have seen action would NEVER brag about "racking up the muslim kills" (and one of my friends is a sniper, so I'm going to assume he's killed people). In fact, most of them don't even like to talk about being over there.
When I first opened this thread I was hanging out with a friend who got back from Iraq this Summer. I had him read it and his first response was, "Just some redneck fuck who wants to feel special on the Internet. Ask him what unit he served in."
So I did. And like I thought, Popeye didn't reply. Because Popeye didn't serve.
