"Fuck em"

Fuck 'em is right.

The Bush supporters dont listen to reason or have thoughtful discussions. While most left wingers try to explain and basically go "Look!! Look what you're doing!!" The right just says "No we're not" while continuing to do so.

They just want us to talk, debate and discuss til we're blue in the face while they happily fuck up everything for their own benefit. They don't even bother trying to come up with decent excuses any more. So fuck 'em. The time for discussion really has passed.

Just to note, I dont think the fan's question said, "ed, as you know some of your fans are huge ardent bush supporters" and ed replied "fuck em" .

That would make some sense

He asked about fans disagreeing in what seemed to me a more general way.

Remember, conservative does not = pro bush. Ed and many of you would do well to open your eyes, and realize that.

Some people around here (very few) talk about tolerance and understanding...but then when it comes to an opposing viewpoint...they make mean spirited rash generalizations and oversimplifications about those opposing viewpoints...and they say things like "fuck em". That makes no sense. You can't have it both ways. You either have the cognitive reasoning skills to understand that most people here are not blood thirsty war mongering neo"fucks" / suv blowing up tree spiking "communists"...or...you don't. We all preach rhetoric every now and again...but most of us here realize that we're all pretty much decent human beings with quite a bit in common. To sit here and preach about tolerance, and then not be willing to communicate and SHOW that tolerance in return just reeks of an unwillingness to practice what you preach.

Perhaps Ed would say..."If you hate something, don't you do it too."

And that goes for liberals and conservatives alike.

you have alot of nerve being a conservative, intelligent, and open-minded all at the same time. you may have just blown quite a few peoples minds. unless they have their blinders on. That one's just for milhouse. a freebie.

Thank you. I actually thought of you and Abook while typing that. While we might normally disagree, we can still share a common element of reasonable debate and respect.

:)Shucks

I do try but I'll admit I can let people get under my skin for time to time and slip a bit.

God damn right Eddie!

I am tired of this neo conservative, extreme right wing bullshit agenda...and i am sick of the people that follow it as gospel... embracing hatred, fear, greed, war, violence, restriction of freedoms, war profiteering, non-tolerance, discrimination, lying, etc., etc.

if the blatant lies about Iraq and Katrina didnt wake them up nothing will!

so "fuck em" and anybody that agrees with them

You're sick of non-tolerance?!

The only time I have ever seen you loose your cool was during the barroom hero/gutyoulikeafish incident and that was understandable.

Furthermore, what did Katrina have to do with anything conservative? In my opinion, the people that really screwed that up were the Democrats in power in NOLA.

^^^^^

Thanks for the kind words guys. I feel like I'm....not on the train for lack of a better joke. Funny, I always ask myself, did I go to far with that response or think: I hope that wasn't too offensive. I know I can be quite the smartass occasionally. Anyways, its good to know I'm not included in the 'intolerant assmunch' catagory.
