Of course it was. Thats why all the top Dems and Reps voted for it, gotta earn that campaign money.

Now what? Public financing of campaigns? Divest from fossil fuel corps? Cut defense?

Don't stop with an empty meaningless bash.

That's too easy.

What about the hard work of plotting a course? Embracing a strategy?

I can't believe you only want to take part in the shallow politics of personal destruction.

You're a turbo charged engine of change and progress!!!

No?

If you have a problem with

"Don't stop with an empty meaningless bash. That's too easy. What about the hard work of plotting a course? Embracing a strategy? I can't believe you only want to take part in the shallow politics of personal destruction."

Try watching the video, theres a shit ton of it.

Perhaps your comment should be posted to the poster of the thread as well?

My comment has been directed appropriately.

Thank you very much.

Anything else.?

Another distraction perhaps?

No? Then how about providing some substance beyond your tired, kneejerk, useless, partisan bashing.

"Then how about providing some substance beyond your tired, kneejerk, useless, partisan bashing."

Like I said, if you are looking for some of that, hit play on that video.

Or ignore the video and post, and attack the comments. Either or. Whatev.

The video is old news, I saw it before this post.

Noteworthy: No substance, only 2nd distraction/deflection away from constructive substantive comments.

Predictable.

And yet you wait for the comments to show up before addressing it.

I guess if I posted my comment a long time ago, it too would be "old news"..

Or are you now simply following me around looking for someone to talk to?

[-] 0 points by 99nproud (2697) 10 years ago

I thought someone should call you on your bull@#$%.

Don't need or want to talk to you partisan, distractoid, bankster mouthpeices.

I consider it a duty. I'm here so rarely, hate to let a chance go by to smoke your sorry a&%.

Peace OUT!!!

"Of course it was. Thats why all the top Dems and Reps voted for it, gotta earn that campaign money."

Who would have thought that would deserve a verbal attack.

[-] 1 points by 99nproud (2697) 10 years ago

So what now? Got anything beyond your normal knee jerk bashing?

A strategy, a course, An issue?

Campaign finance, transparency, demilitarization,

Whaaaat!!!

Get beyond the bull@#$%!!! That's all. You're shallow insubstantial bashing is the offensive verbal attack.

You just can't handle substance. You're more comfy on facebook?
