To just which errors are you referring, Nappy?

The title of the thread seems correct to me.

In answer to your question, I was an educator a hell of a lot longer than you were a student. If we're counting just the time you were a college student I would have had your time beat after just a month.

Terrific cartoon.

Much truth in that.

For it to be absolutely perfect however, it needs one addition;

It needs a character at the end of the line who looks like a dimwitted Neanderthal, drooling from the mouth, with a beer in one hand, an *I Love Country Music* hat on his head, and holding on high a sign that states --

""I'm voting for anybody but Hillary cuz she's a no good bitch!"

I love how Frogger includes Obama's middle name, but none of the other candidates.

It totally shows his bias. I mean, the only reason to include his middle name and NOT the others is to try and discredit him because his middle name is that of Saddam's last name.

How pathetic.

You're a liar.

If you REALLY THINK including someone's middle name is IMPORTANT, you would have looked up the other people's middle names -- even IF Obama's is more widely "known". Because, generally, there is NO POINT to include someone's middle name, unless you want to try and discredit them, like you are trying to do.

Face it, you included his middle name to cause people to fear him because his middle name is that of Saddam's last name. Consistency is key to knowing if someone is a liar or not, and you weren't consistent with including everyone else's middle name.

Bullshit! Obama is not using his middle name in the campaign just as the others are not using their middle names in the campaign. For you to deliberately put that in there shows a lot....

I agree with you here. It is bullshit to criticize someone over misspelling somebody's name when it is such a strange name. Like someone else said, it's not as if it were a conventional word in the dictionary.

On the issue of middle names, however, I think his critics have a point.

Translation; They have the thought in their minds, but have no clue as to why they view her that way, nor can they provide anything substantive to support this *bitch* thesis when asked to enumerate something she has done to earn the 'bitch' moniker.

Face it; the group in question **hates Hillary** with such a seething passion for no other reason except that the DisInfoTainment Industry (aka the conservative Media outlets) in this country has indoctrinated them (being the simpleminded sheep that they are, they're easy to manipulate) to *hate Hillary*.

Frogger
02-15-2008, 08:46 AM
Tell me,Freethinker, what causes the blind love of Hillary on the other side? Is it her famous universal health plan? Is it the fact that she said she wouldn't stay home and bake cookies? Is it her windfall cattle futures profits? Is it the way she conveniently lost the Rose Law Firm billing records? Is it how she left the White House with everything but the toilet paper?

Just what is it that causes this blind adulation by certain people?

We seem to have contradictory statements here.

No wonder Overdose called you a liar.

You may not have lied about not knowing the middle names of certain candidates, but you certainly ARE lying --demonstrably-- when you assert that when she left the White House Hillary took everything but the toilet paper.

Frogger's obvious exaggeration aside, I don't think he's entirely wrong, FT. Were items taken that shouldn't have been? Yes. Were they "returned"? Yes. I'm curious, what conclusion have you reached?

Oh, and nice to see that you avoided talking about the other points he brought up....

Enough with the lying talk geez.. We all know overdose is sensaative, and any mention of his middle name, to me anyways, is just a sarcastic remark. I like Obama a lot more than hilary. And hey, I know Hilary Rodham clinton's middle name... she's been called it many times over the years.

As for frogger... quit with the hate, don't be saying "fuck *insert name here*.. it's just not a good way to represent yourself FYI.

I mean, MANY people use their middle name or initial and who knows why:

John F. Kennedy
Stephen A. Smith
Jesus H. Christ
John Wilks Booth
Juan Carlos Ferrero
Lee Harvey Oswald
Billy Ray Cyrus
John Quincy Adams
Micheal J. Fox
Andrew W. K.

Those are just off the top of my head.. anyone else think of famous people who were known with their middle name or at least initial?

Are you suggesting that I don't deserve my 4.0? Considering that half the kids in most of my classes are either failing or barely scraping by, I don't think that's what it is. In many of my classes the average scores on exams are 60 or 65%.

I wouldn't know if it exists at your school or not. It's a bigger issue at higher levels of academia, especially graduate school, though I have heard that some state schools have started inflating grades as well.
