Al Franken takes dummy Ted Cruz to School

[Kosh]

What's your point? Do you think that you're presence is necessary?

The exercise here is to debate the issues. If you're not bright enough to do that, you're gone.

Can't be more simple. If that's too complex for ya... well, you know

You are fucking nuts. The purpose here is to trade insults and putdowns.
Debate the issues....with the likes of you.....you gotta be fucking kidding me.
What is with you right wing whack jobs thinking this is a debate forum? Fucking watch a real debate sometime and learn the difference.

And the irony impaired far left drones strikes again!

Typical tactics for a typical thread. Mud slinging out the ass from both sides and the actual purpose of the thread is gone......................

I've shown the data that pertains to the thread and the OP. Shown how in the court case they couldn't give one example of abuse..............

Explained that a simple amendment to the existing law is all that is needed to ensure they don't abuse the speeds without giving the FCC Title II authority................

Explained how the FCC will reclassify the carriers and tax them by the billions a year..............................

The rest of the thread............is simply DIVERSIONS FROM THE REAL SUBJECT...............

Perhaps because that is a standard tactic to get off of subjects that aren't meeting the opinions of the OP.

Anyway...................if I was to post to what this OP is now............................

YOU SUCK.............NO YOU SUCK..................DIRTBAG.............NO YOU ARE A DIRTBAG.....................

YAWN.

My basic principle is simply 'fairness'.
According to you that makes me a socialist that advocates tyranny.

Yes it does. It's not government's job to make life fair, and they never do that. They use fairness as an excuse to commit tyranny. Democrats are not liberals, you are authoritarian leftists. Marxists. If you actually read the communist manifesto without blinders on, you would realize that you agree with it. The goals and the rhetoric to justify them. They boil down to that it's the government's job to make life fair, and they will decide what fairness is.

Thank you...summed up beautifully.
Let me paraphrase.
"Fuck everyone else...I'm doing OK"

BTW, fuck wad, you use quotes when you are quoting me. I did not say that, stop being a dick.

Poor thing.
I've offended you.

The idealogue's Alamo.
"It's not that the Free Market has failed...it's that it wasn't free enough."
It's lucky that the evil government were able to bail out so many of the poor, oppressed free marketeers.

Fair and equal access to the market is essential for it to work properly and in the best interests of everyone.
Nothing Marxist about it.

How is it in Utopia these days anyway?

So, the "free market" has failed in that people living in free market nations enjoy better lives with better food, shelter, transportation, entertainment, and life expectancy than any humans in all of history?

My only hope is that when you trade the prospect of reward as the means to motivate people to work for the whip - since there is no other option, that your hide is the first to experience what you propose.

Are there any countries with a completely unregulated free market?

Ouch, how's the butt hurt going for you? So I can either not point out you were being a dick with your lie those were my actual words by using quotes or I can keep quiet. Got it. I'll give that all due consideration. Flush. OK, done.

By "fuck you" I didn't mean, I'm offended, I meant "fuck you." Here's how you know. I said "fuck you." Tricky, huh? Note the accurate use of quotes to indicate those were my actual words.

Your self-righteous outrage is amusing...please continue.

Your inability to man up to your mistakes is not amazing, you are a liar and a fraud so it was pretty predictable.

Despite Franken's long history in the entertainment industry, you don't see him hogging the spotlight, do you? He's not out there running to the cameras to get attention. In fact, you hardly ever see him. Know why? It's because he's doing the work. A lot of what's involved (or what's supposed to BE involved) with being a representative or a Senator is immersing yourself in the issues. That means reading and educating yourself. That means briefing books, and reports, and numbers, and summaries of reports which include evidence, and numbers, and comparisons, and cost-benefit analyses. It's pretty dry and boring stuff.

Meanwhile, men like Cruz, who just so happens to be one of the new darlings of the right, run around making noise and trying to get attention like a stripper with a new boob job. Cruz is like the Dennis Rodman of the Senate.

Prominent Harvard Prof. Alan Dershowitz’s Comments About Ted Cruz Could Help His 2016 Chances

Apr. 7, 2014 11:03am

Prominent Harvard Law professor Alan Dershowitz offered words of praise for former student Ted Cruz in a new interview with the Philadelphia Inquirer:

U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz (R., Texas): “Off-the-charts brilliant. And you know, liberals make the terrible mistake, including some of my friends and colleagues, of thinking that all conservatives are dumb.

And I think one of the reasons that conservatives have been beating liberals in the courts and in public debates is because we underestimate them.

Never underestimate Ted Cruz.

He is off-the-chart brilliant. I don’t agree with his politics.”

But the retiring Dershowitz couldn’t similarly evaluate another Harvard Law alumnus:

There was also the Harvard Law student who couldn’t get into a Dershowitz class despite multiple attempts: Barack Obama.

“Twice because the computer kept him out,” Dershowitz said. “It wasn’t my fault.”

no the blasé is not bias at all :
OUR MISSION
We believe Americans seek information, truth, and empowerment.
We believe Americans want to put principles above politics.
We believe that America was built on hard work, and that capitalism has lifted more people out of squalor, sickness, and slavery than any other system.
As a company we strive to do as Jefferson said: Question with boldness, hold to the truth, and speak without fear.
We do not color in the lines, nor play by the rules established by either of the parties or by the media that has empowered them with distortion.
We never treat our viewers or readers like idiots. We respect their desire to be informed so they can be useful and effective citizens.
We are not interested in left and right. We seek answers to right and wrong.
We are more than a media company. We are a community, a gathering place, and a source for inspiration & education. Our goal is to educate, empower, engage and entertain.
The Blaze is a verb. We are action. We are restoration.
We are proud to be Americans. We believe hard work is the foundation of a great country and a great company. We are driven by our values: faith, family, ingenuity, respect, and truth.
As a country and a company we recognize that we will get it wrong from time to time, but we’ll boldly correct our mistakes, learn from them, and come back stronger.
We answer to God and you. We ask for your feedback, your ideas, and your questions. Only through mutual respect and dialogue can we grow and build for the future.
Laus Deo

Yeah.... Just as obama is holding to Reagan's principles.

LOL! Hysterical.

yeah it is! since your answer has jack shit to do with what I posted.

ROFL!

CONGRATS, Given the evidence YOU've provided and using your own stated reasoning, you MUST be a Republican!

so much for your "critical thinking skills"....... you couldn't be more wrong...

 

[daws101]

...
Naturally, your failure to so sustain your 'feelings' will be YOUR concession to ME, that you're an imbecile.

golly! setting erroneous conditions is so fuckin typical of pseudoeducated pseudo intellectuals !

Your concession is duly noted and summarily accepted. Ya did the best you could, bless your little black heart.

love it when assholes like you falsely assume ..
does prove my point though
setting erroneous conditions is so fuckin typical of pseudoeducated pseudo intellectuals !

LMAO!

Well now, as PRECIOUS as that is... it designates your failure to meet the minimal intellectual requirement for your 'feelings' to qualify for consideration. As a result you're being sentenced to "LIFE IN IGNORE!"

Unfortunately, there is no chance for reconsideration.

But you'll be in good company and please... tell the idiots I said "HEY!", will ya?

wrong again shit head my feelings are irrelevant and not applicable
it seems your feelings not reason or logic drive your pov.

 

[daws101]

what would you know about analytical thinking or critical thinking ?

Critical Thinking is the process of analyzing and evaluating information to reach an answer or conclusion. It is the ability to analyze facts generate and organize ideas, defend opinions, make comparisons, draw inferences, evaluate arguments and solve problems.
Analytical Thinking is when you habitually use analysis in your thinking process. It follows a scientific approach.

The whole segment was their opinion. They didn't present facts to analyze. If they had been libertarian and expressed views I agreed with, I would say they are right, but I still wouldn't call it analysis since they didn't analyze anything, they just expressed views I agreed with. That's all Tingle Boy did, express opinions you agreed with. You'd know that if you knew what critical thinking is.

your posts show no indication of either .
they do however overflow with fascist dogma..

LOL, I'm a fascist libertarian. You really don't know what words mean...

wow! two total bullshit rationalizations in one post .

Fascist Libertarianism For a Better World The Right Stuff
yep you are!

Wow, the opinion of a left wing blogger who is like you swimming in kool-aid, knows nothing about economics and apparently doesn't own a dictionary to look up words he doesn't know before he uses them. That is compelling, thanks!

total bullshit rationalizations

LOL, funny how you love that word even though you don't know what it means.

just keep telling yourself that
verb (used with object), rationalized, rationalizing.
1.
to ascribe (one's acts, opinions, etc.) to causes that superficially seem reasonable and valid but that actually are unrelated to the true, possibly unconscious and often less creditable or agreeable causes.
