So you are not going to tell me what "worked" for Mickey and I? really? You can't figure it out on your own? Ok, I'll help.. you said Quote from: lil mike on January 14, 2012, 02:22:50 pm You do know that simply calling me a liar over and over is not the same thing as proving me wrong.and he replied it worked for you and Mickey.. meaning, you and Mickey did it to him repeatedly on Muche.. not that hard to figure out.. So Puffy just left here and never gave an explanation? I think he said something about 'midol' to her and she missed the smiley face attached to it.. she didn't get that was Howie's way of 'moving on'.. I tried to explain it I really think we might need to reassess what we expected to get here.. I kinda figured things would be said,fought,joked about, played,hurled angrily etc etc etc here the same way it has always been everywhere else we've all posted together.. with some slight exceptions sure, but for t he most part, the same.. Some days will be darth-like comments, some days will have crowd like obtuseness...some will even have -fu like comedy... except those playing those parts will be all of us since we're the ones here.... but she didn't get it.. I don't know what anyone expects to get here.. I kinda figured that was it.. maybe not for others tho *shrug* I miss her tho.. .. You totally blew an opportunity with Shannon. By FB and twittering that he's a racist, he had to ban you; you were threatening his employability. I know nothing about that.. when the hell did all that happen? Now when are you going to fix the image in my post?
huh? your photo looks the same as always to me?

are you medicated? The line of discussion was started by you..you were whing about the recess appointment.. we were talking about the the 'pro-forma' session.. Chuck said it was BS when Reid did it and it's BS now.. but the gOP has really abused it's power by doing it 197 times compared to Reid 16 times..
there would be no need for recess appointment or pro-forma sessions if the GOP didn't abuse their power with all the secret holds on the nominations..
are you ill?
seriously, you're too busy thinking you're being 'obtuse' in one thread and you're missing the 1+1=2 here.. It's hard to believe you've lost the ability to follow more than one line of discussion.. didn't I teach you anything?
umm, that I'm for torturing someone if they have my kid.. or if there is a bomb in the basement and we need to know how to turn it off?
nice try in getting around your hypocrisy... but it's still there.. you are fine with GWB's lawyer telling him he can torture, but let Obama's DOJ tell him he can make a recess appointment and you go all 'that's unconstitutional'...because the weight of Obama's is soooo much more destructive... HA! you're partsian is showing Dear. HA!
btw, you really need a little less drinky-poo when you're reading/replying... you've got a serious PUI issue going on here.. because what I said in those clips you copied, is pretty easy to understand
Those secret holds have nothing to do with the issue of a unconstitutional appointments. Are you honestly arguing that Republican secret holds justify violating the constitution? That reminds me of Forrest Gump, when Jenny's boyfriend hit her because of that "lying son of a bitch, Johnson!"So the Republican's forced Obama to violate the constitution. Interesting defense. By the way, if that was Chuck's intent from his post I totally misread it.

I don't want to speak for Chuck, but that's exactly what I got out of his post too.

pretty much.. their abuse of power forced him to do what he did. A president is allowed to staff his administration..the GOP are being abusive pricks by holding up Obama's nomination for nothing other than their stated goal of wanting to see him fail..especially when some of his nominees, when finally given a real up or down vote, get 90+% approval.. the gOP's actions forced his. And sorry, but his DOJ said it's not unconstitutional, and you know you like to rely on a presidents lawyer, so you're whining up the wrong tree..

Wow, you actually agreed with me! Not whining, but I have to admit I'm smirking a little.

They told me if I voted for John McCain he wouldn't actually be honest:Therefore, the campaign has decided to do what we can, consistent with the law, to support Priorities USA in its effort to counter the weight of the GOP Super PAC. We will do so only in the knowledge and with the expectation that all of its donations will be fully disclosed as required by law to the Federal Election Commission.
What this change means practically: Senior campaign officials as well as some White House and Cabinet officials will attend and speak at Priorities USA fundraising events. While campaign officials may be appearing at events to amplify our message, these folks won't be soliciting contributions for Priorities USA. I should also note that the President, Vice President, and First Lady will not be a part of this effort; their political activity will remain focused on the President's campaign.
But here's what this doesn't change: the fact that ordinary people stepping up to take control of the political process is essential to our strategy.

They told me if I voted for John McCain he wouldn't actually be honest:while understandable... this is a bad move. He can't really complain about the CU decision if he's going to play by the same rule book..BUT, he can't sit there and let Rove use CU against him either.. There is a thought that Obama could use his 'non-use' of super-pacs as a fundraising tool, but the question is, can every day ppl donating $10 here, $20 there... compete with the Koch Brothers and the likes of a Foster Friess? and I don't know the answer to that..

No, they can't. Which is why he was honest and explained why. It all boils down (again) to this: pretty much.. their abuse of power forced him to do what he did.

Agreed only, wouldn't that explanation have been better if it was given and then ended with "And that is why I need your help" and website to donate to?

You guys do remember Obama opted out of the public financing program for the general election in 2008 don't you?
