Well there's probably no one here that would call me a radical liberal. I threw down with the Bernie people for months. But your argument that pledges sustain regardless of circumstance is inane.rustneversleeps said:
you'd have to ask a conservative. i dont have a conservative bone in my body. i just find radlibs much more intolerable than conservatives.mrussel1 said:
I didn't call you a spineless lemming. I said a person who would not break said pledge when circumstances change is a spineless lemming. Are RadCons hypersensitive or unfamiliar with the general 'royal you'?rustneversleeps said:well, i have people assuming they know my intentions. then another calling me a spineless lemming for my beliefs. then we have you saying hitler himself would like me. all because i was raised to keep my word. the RadLibs are too much sometimes....
Since we are talking Nazis now, do you look down upon Oskar Schindler for violating his oath to follow the Nazi party platform?
i dont care about schindler at all....
If I made a pledge to love my wife in good times or bad, which I did, but came home early from a conference at the Marriott and she was engaged in a gang bang, then I get to break my pledge. Or if she abused my kids. Or lots of other unforgivable things.
Lying about and disparaging my family is an example of the unforgivable in politics.0 -
Can we circle back to the gang bang for a moment...mrussel1 said:

fair enough. i actually tend to agree with your point of view pretty often. you are not a radlib, my apologies for lumping you in...mrussel1 said:

I'm just wondering who in the hell the "radlibs" are here?? I suspect a couple of you might think I am, but I most certainly am not. I am pretty left in most (not all) of my views for sure, but I'm not radical in my views at all. I voted Liberal in the last Canadian election for crying out loud. What does it take to be a "radlib" and who is one in the AMT? To me that would be people who participate in eco-terrorism and stuff like that.

Now before all the people on this train who can't open their minds at least give an opinion as to why you would disagree with this sentiment.

Still, some polls suggest Donald Trump is the least popular major party candidate in history. His negatives, a measure of those who approve and disapprove of him personally, are unprecedented. His campaign then, has one ugly chance. If he can make people hate Hillary Clinton more than they fear him, he might just win.

Speech leaked. Frum says it's good. He hates trump.
Palin also gave a good convention speech though...0 -
there's no reason to point fingers, lets get back to The Man Behind the Movement, or the gangbang...PJ_Soul said:I'm just wondering who in the hell the "radlibs" are here??

But Palin's speech was her high point. Nobody new her before so she could only go downhill. Everybody knows Trump and the expectations are low.Cliffy6745 said:Speech leaked. Frum says it's good. He hates trump.

I wish I had been wrong. By last December, before any primary, I had predicted it would come down in the end to Trump v. Clinton. None of my friends believed me, but I totally called it. I wish I had put money on it!!rustneversleeps said:i think its time to admit we all, myself included, underestimated the man.

im done saying he can't win. i am one of the many idiots that has had to eat crow over and over. too concerned with his bad hair to see The Movement happening right before my eyes. he will defeat Crooked Hillary.PJfanwillneverleave1 said:Now before all the people on this train who can't open their minds at least give an opinion as to why you would disagree with this sentiment.

Actually, it's "the royal we." There is no "royal you." "You" is a dangerous pronoun because it is almost invariably interpreted as a direct address, and we should be careful to avoid it unless we are in fact talking directly to our reader. Not trying to be a grammar Nazi -- or any kind of Nazi -- just letting *you* know that if *you* want to avoid being misinterpreted, avoid "you" when referring to people in general.mrussel1 said:

I actually said I hoped Trump would win so that none of the pathetic Republican nominees had a chance of actually becoming POTUS, but in didn't really think my hopes would come to fruition because I underet9mated Job's capacity to bore the country to death. But so far so good I guess, although I don't recall factoring in the amount of hate for Hillary coming from the left (some of which I find extremely overwrought), to the point where the left might split the vote and let Trump win anyhow.what dreams said:

Disagree, at least in general context. I could have replaced it with "one" if writing formally. But if it has urban dictionary entry, it's real in my book. http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Royal youwhat dreams said:

Yes, I know it can be annoying, but how many times do conversations begin to break down as soon as someone says "you" instead of "people"? I speak publicly for a living, as well as teach writing for a living. People almost always take the "you" personally, so I avoid it unless I am directly speaking to a person. I teach that as well -- but of course, we know how well people listen to and learn from their teachers. It's just a suggestion here, in the interest of promoting effective communication.

True, but it's delivery. His foreign policy speech was well written but poorly delivered. Can he deliver a high energy speech that he isn't winging it? We will find out tonight.Cliffy6745 said:Speech leaked. Frum says it's good. He hates trump.
