How about that..... we learn something new every day.
You eliminated LF's chief forum moderator, Moderator X. What gives YOU the unmitigated right to hurt the chit-chat channel's best?
I see "We the People" kicking your asses all over LP today. He brings your combined best into a focus for further review.
... What gives YOU the unmitigated right to hurt the chit-chat channel's best? Duh! He owns the forum ... dumbass! And I guess it is not as you said on TPF ... He is not afraid of you.
He was no bother to me ...
Really? Explain the mechanics of how "he owns the forum." Does "he" own yours or my posts, too?
You are defensive again, tater. It is a G-R-E-A-T day to watch you cower before other posters. "We The People" beat you and harrowup to a bloody pulp, again on LP.
Since he can delete or prevent them ... he "owns" the right to "control" them. As does he also "own" the right to control "who" posts here. You and I post here at his courtesy ... and don't you forget it!!!
Satisfaction is only in the eyes of the beholder.
Yeah, he sure knew how to take a punch and not know he's bleeding... Ba da bing, ba da boom.
As does he also "own" the right to control "who" posts here. You and I post here at his courtesy ... and don't you forget it!!! So your contention is that "he" can can control our thoughts and repress the free exchange of ideas unless we agree with him. How do we know how to agree with anything he thinks about? There are no clear rules that are documented anywhere. Similar to your lovelust, Goldie's forum. Both forum managers make up rules as they go along.
I enjoy your restatement of a classical phrase, "Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder." Is that all you can attempt at a clever expression? But, then entire forum watched "We The People" kick your ass into complete humiliation. You are so defensive, you saw my post over here on LF..... you are always watching and waiting with a puckered anal sphincter. You are too quick on the draw to prove much worth against formidable odds. You are a babbling joke.
... Both forum managers make up rules as they go along. Nope, it is not my contention that he can control our thought ... I have never seen that to be the case, where Stone "tries" to control our thoughts or repress any free exchange of ideas ... and I have never seen any edict that we agree with him. Do you need rules of etiquette documented here for you to be courteous? Both forum manager have the right to do whatever they want to, and do that anytime they want to ... with respect to their forums. If you don't not like that, then you also have a right ... the right not to post on their forums. Elementary, Bucky, elementary!
Then why bother with me ...
So why the repression of your pal, "yukon's" madcap adventure ride on LP, March 27, 2011? Biased. On this thread alone, Stone removed comments; he even timed me out for awhile. This is the Internet; the rules of engagement must be characterized by documented policies and procedures. For forum managers too lazy to understand this important idea, they shall flounder forever wondering why they can't herd a pile of people with different backgrounds and political concepts into a nice channel having tea and crumpets with a chat. No they don't. If there are no clear rules; they are as much the issue as anyone. But, you miss the entire point. That is why I am here.
You are as much fun to watch as "yukon." Please remember, this is pure entertainment for the most experienced posters as some of us find time out of our busy lives. I especially enjoy watching you "flinch" and "quiver" based on your own naivete.
There used to be some really bad fishermen at Clown Posse, but none of them were stupid enough to post such stinko bait.
Go back outside before the Sun sets and enjoy one of your goats. It shall keep your mind off what is happening as you get your jollies off.
(Already answered this one).
Nowhere did I see an unconscious exclusion of painful impulses, desires, or fears from the conscious mind. Since I did not see that happen … I, of course, cannot comment on that. Therefore you need to direct the comment to Stone. You deserved it … I thought he had banned you. I would have. But, since he did not, I will concede that your statement on TPF is correct: “Stone is afraid” of you. That is blatantly obvious to me now. Sounds like your personal problem, Bucky. I have never had a conflict with a forum owner. Yet you seem to be in constant conflict with every one of them. Ever wonder why that is? Nah, of course you wouldn’t! It is impossible of a forum owner to write a rule for ever contingency. I repeat: Every forum owner has the absolute right and authority to do anything he/she desires as long as it is lawful and does not violate any contractual agreement. But wait!!! You are the provocateur about rules. You are the who provokes trouble, causes dissension, or the like; the agitator … about rules. Since you have become such a stickler for rules, why don’t you post for everyone the see: The Operating Rules for a Chit-Chat Forum Owner. You do that for us, please. You can … can’t you? No, I didn’t miss your point … you never make an intelligent one. You may try again, if you like … and next time attempt to make sense. As I have said: If you don't like the way a forum owner runs a forum, there is an unwritten but commonly accepted rule. That is, you have the inherent right not to post on their forum.
Oh the booze again, I can tell ... yep, it's Saturday alright.
If you will check, you will find that you have made more references to goats that anyone (maybe with one unnamed exception). It is therefore obvious to everyone that you are the one getting your jollies off fantasying about someone with goats. ***Snicker***
I shall confine my comment to this singular remarck that you enjoy on LP with your buddy "yukon": ROTFL.
Yes indeed, Major tater and Sunday is dawning on LP. Watch out!
The day is good when many posters slap you and "yukon" et al, across the head with a 2X4. Yep, the day is good.
Of course it is. If they can't borrow more money, "non-essential" portions of the government will have to shut down. Yahoo.
There are 535 individuals in Congress, each of which have a person career agenda to preserve and move forward.
Really? Where? All I see are Republicans/Democrats continuing their decades old political antics screwing the US Constitution and the American People.
Mostly I see that too, but there really are a small handful that are different. Ron Paul, Rand Paul, Jim DeMint, Connie Mack, and maybe 5 or 10 others, including Dennis Kunchinich on the other side.
You will do nothing ... NOTHING! So, there is no need for me to watch out.
Hasn't happened ... Stay off the booze.
Hasn't happened ... Stay off the booze. Honestly, if We The People is even remotely representative of Ron Paul supporters then I seriously underestimated the depth of their ignorance and cult like brain washing.
Ping me in a couple of hours if you don't mind. I need a wee bit of rest before the festivities begin.
a lot more than non-essential operations will shut down - unless you don't consider things like the FAA, border security, food inspections, and so on "essential"

He doesn't. You could also add the air traffic controllers, FDA, OSHA, the EPA, National Parks, Post Office, and on and on. To him the only legitimate function of the Federal Government is to make the rich richer.
They're all doing a lousy job and will not be missed. Private enterprise, the US Army and public spirited vigilante volunteers, can do a far better job.
Obama's watch stopped on 24 May 2008, but he's been too busy smoking crack to notice.
Yeah right, history has already proved that to be wrong. And I was told by hundreds of Vets that "it was the right way or the Army way" was a very accurate statement.
One Pingie-Pingie Two Pingie-Pingie Three Pingie-Pingie Bon Ton Roulet!
Bon Ton Roulet! Is that like 3 card monte?
He doesn't. You could also add the air traffic controllers, FDA, OSHA, the EPA, National Parks, Post Office, and on and on. The government will collect $179 billion in taxes in August. Interest on the debt, Social Security, Medicare, and military salaries add up to $143 billion. That's $36 left for other things. Here's how to make that $36 billion larger: 25% of people over 65 have pensions or incomes from annuities or property that classifies them as "wealthy". Remove these freeloaders from Social Security and Medicare and you'd have more more to spend on "essential" things. Then get rid of all government subsidies for energy, agriculture, NPR, NEA, etc. and crazy "research" programs like studying hookers in China and the size of gay men's penises and you'd have a bunch of additional money. Then sell the Post Office, Amtrak, and other services that could be better provided by business and you'd have even more money. It's pretty darn simple to cut enough spending to close the deficit.
The Post Office entity is empowered by the constitution. But you can blame Nixon for restructuring it under the corporate model and thereby creating the problems it has today.

This isn't a government shut-down.

You act as though there isn't some kind of unofficial set of agreements/policies and procedures that occur between within the same political parties that run between the two houses of Congress.
