Re: “The Southern Baptist Convention Walks a Fine Line

It takes years to earn the rank of Eagle, Zoombah.

You can't just show up enough times and claim it. You obviously don't know what you're talking about. Now that you disagree with the BSA's new policy on gay youth, you're trying to smear them.

It's a pathetic dodge.

Re: “Meet the World's Worst Visitor to Nashville

Good heavens! What an ignorant/arrogant fuck! Probably he never ventured more than a block from his skanky motel at the foot of the Jefferson Street bridge or Trinity Lane. God forbid he read anything about Nashville or East Nashville before coming here. Of course, this should be posted in that Hollywood Reporter story's comment section. And there are weeds, bbq wagons at the Kroger and tire stores. We think they give EV its ineffable charm.

HA! and HAHA! (Never call out a fellow Clansman in public, that's the first rule of Race Baiting 101.)

"Anybody that says it's easy to earn the rank of Eagle Scout doesn't know wtf he's talking about."

Well, you certainly seem to be an expert on not knowing wtf you're talking about.

@xray: AnglRdr: "I rant against criminals of all elements "

Actually, I have never ever seen you rant against any criminals, except black ones. Ever.

Naturally, you'll have proof that you have.

WOW, xray, it sounds like someone of color took your lunch money and ran your skivvies up the flagpole! Well, let's quote your ol' partner of obtuseness, Gilbert: "Prove it - with unequivocal and absolute definitiveness". Otherwise you will violate HIS rules!

Re: “Bill O'Reilly and Dennis Miller Coming, Boldly and Freshly, to the Ryman

@AnglRdr: I rant against criminals of all elements but for purposes of your argument you, of course, refuse to remember that fact, but in doing so you give me a chance to reiterate that if it wasn't for minority criminal activity we could do away with two thirds of our police force and prisons, and also the chance to say that few minority leaders ever encourage minorities to clean up their acts. It's so damn easy to stay out of jail - don't break the law! Minority criminals are overwhelmingly the same individuals that gave teachers problems and disrupted classes and were schoolyard bullies and eventually dropped out. In short, they were/are assholes but, hey, it's so much easier to say the white man is holding them down, mmm-hmmm.

I stand corrected, Tobin. Bill is still a blowhard and spins facts to suit his predetermined talking points.

Best part about this is the ad at the Ryman page.

Re: “Bill Haslam and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Week

Bob K is right. Prior to Haslam & Friends, Tennessee had a conservative, pro-business development mindset that acknowledged the need for investment in public education, higher education, in rural infrastructure development (including keeping rural hospitals afloat), and projecting an image to prospective employers that Tennessee is not a backwater. We were generous with incentives to lure industry (and got stupidly so under Bredesen), but tried to project an image of competent, pro-business leadership. That is gone, thanks to the clowns in power now. Now we right big checks to businesses with no accountability for the result and no public examination of where it's going and why. We let our colleges crumble and teach mythology as science in our schools. We forgo a chance to extend basic healthcare to hundreds of thousands of working poor people, endangering our rural hospitals. The new governing mindset is based on cronyism and ignorance- the first essential characteristics of an economic backwater. But hey, it'll be electorally safe for the GOP!

Re: “Blowhard Lou Dobbs puts his foot even further down his throat opining about women in the workplace

I guess that's the problem with TMI. Then people expect more TMI. You all are going to know waaaaaay too much about me if we keep going at this rate.

All I will say about Ben Wa balls is that there *may* be one rolling around somewhere in Charleston. But that's another story.

Gravitational fields are created by mass, not rotation.

Re: “Bill O'Reilly and Dennis Miller Coming, Boldly and Freshly, to the Ryman

@xray: "I also comment on numskulls [sic] who need racial division to justify their existence "

So why have you never called bobs out on his attempts at racial division?

Further, you should call yourself out. While you say you speak of the "criminal elements of black society and how they affect the decent people of black society," you remain curiously silent on criminal elements in your own society and how they affect the decent people of your own society.

My suggestion to you: keep your side of the street clean before you start touting yourself as such a paragon of virtue.

Re: “The Southern Baptist Convention Walks a Fine Line

Well, perhaps they do not claim to be much better. They don't wish to dictate political policy based on religious views, a strategy clearly violating the constitution. Perhaps they do not condemn people based on facts of birth and sexual identity, or for exercising their religious freedom in a non intrusive manner. Perhaps they realize that this country was founded by virtue of diversity; ethnic, religious, and socially. Perhaps they are the antithesis to you!

BTW: Nice story, try using it as a personal model for YOUR ethics!

@NeverFear - Barney Frank is smarter than both of those two guys. Whoopie is funnier than either one of them. And Chris Mathews is a better man, father and human being than both of those two combined. Funny you should mention them.
