Kinda like an athelete retiring. Then saying 'well, if there was an emergency' and not signing the proper retirement forms

Nice try.

Slipping in a fallacious premise...in this case wholesale condemnation of opposition...as foundation or precursor to another point...that would be a method of debate that you can retire.

There are some questions dangling about Obama in other threads...is that what you mean by invective?

I have only recently learned that certain of the politically oriented posters are paid by either a party and/or a campaign. It would be very enlightening, I feel certain, for all these passionate posters to know which are the paid posters.

I intend and expect eventually to make a living via ImplausibleEndeavors.com, but I am not paid nor have I ever been paid by a political party, by a campaign or by a candidate.

You?

Well.... could be, but I think most of that decades stuff on Clinton has been exposed already, when Bill Clinton was president, the repugs have been going after both Clintons forever. Don't think they (the repugs) haven't stopped digging on Obama. I still think they are waiting.

I found out about this also and was surprised. I guess the blogosphere is the next MSM frontier. They want to control every spin put out their with their talking points. I for one do not like it and would like to know if there are any posters getting paid.

It is an important distinction, I feel certain...which posters put in their time and energy purely on passion and which posters, however passionate, are also paid for posting.

and while we're at it, let's all stop posting about any of bush's shit everywhere on PG, too... because that, too, is something nobody should bring up - to be "fair".

LET'S ALL JUST PRETEND THAT THE GOP WOULD USE NONE OF THIS - THAT NONE OF THESE THINGS WOULD EVER COME UP IN THE GENERAL ELECTION - THAT THERE'S NOT A SHRED OF TRUTH TO ANYTHING BAD ABOUT HILLARY - IF HILLARY MANAGED TO STEAL THE NOMINATION SOMEHOW. OR THAT IF SHE DID SO, SHE'D BE STEALING IT.

let's all pretend she doesn't lie, that she's not DEEPLY connected to lobbyests and pacs, that she's ethical, well-liked, and that she's really a uniter. yeah. let's all pretend these things are true.

i dont know if this is a test or something but...

what the FUCK do you want? Nothing you post here is going to end hillary, you and few others have run almost all dem primary opposition off the board and now you are upset because nobody is as upset as you?

Wow.......... I must have missed lots of her posts.........

I know it has been a little rough around here on some of the hillary lovers but laying it all/mostly on her is kinda hard............. & they have certainly dished out a little as well.. All is fair in love & war...........

SOmething else has to be up here...... IMO!!!!!!!!

Lol, okay. Sure, and 9/11 was an inside job, and the Easter Bunny is hiding under my bed. Obama supporters entire case seems to revolve mostly around fantasy and their personal, gut feelings. Well, that's all fine, but the other half of the party thinks your Obamaniacs and the like. Can't you see why?

I heard the AARP was thinking about drafting him...however, with some of the passes he threw they were concerned that he wasn't mentally stable enough....
