Aww that's cool. Too bad Phyllis White can't even accept someone being nice without being being paranoid and tossing out a few backhanded insults. We're actually very nice people, Phyllis... it's simply that most of us have enough life experience to realize that hateful bigots trying to drag our country backwards (like tea partiers) are deserving of mockery, especially when it comes from such an easy target that's clearly a moneymaking scam.

Love how Cheri comes so close to mentioning that one of the reasons for the high standard of living in Hawaii is because they have socialized health care.

Not to mention that we offered to stop trolling the site if you promised to stop banning people who disagree with you (and who are often more polite that you guys are). Your users voted to ban us. Admit it: you aren't actually interested in civil discussion, you're only interested in only speaking to people who agree with you.

Want my opinion? It's because you guys, as a whole, have terrible self-esteem. Being proven wrong damages your self-image (righteous Christian American doing the righteous American Christian thing) because you've never learned that admitting a mistake or changing your opinion does not in any way diminish you, and because you've never learned to deal appropriately with mental duress, you act as a child would: you angrily lash out, then run away from or ignore the source of your angst (we'll make our own Facebook so we don't have to face reality!). It isn't that we're rude, it's that you have very thin skin.

My offer is still open, by the way: if a single TPC member comes here and makes a structured, logical argument for any non-religious tea party stance based in empirical evidence from credible news sources (anything short of a blog, youtube video, or Drudge) or expert (non-talking head/blogger/reporter) opinions, and I cannot prove that your information or conclusions are incorrect, I will stop trolling your site AND change my avatar to "A TEA PARTIER OUT-DEBATED ME" for at least 6 months :toxx:.

Yeah. I forget the exact verse, I think it's in Revelations, that says if you take out or add anything to the bible you're in big trouble. I mean, it's already been translated into every language you can imagine, so how much MORE trouble could we be in, really?

It is in Revelations, but it was only meant to apply to Revelations, and it was pretty much the ancient-world equivalent of a copyright notice. Scribes were notoriously unreliable at the time, so there are many examples of ancient documents that exhort the scribe to be meticulous and not make any additions or subtractions. This example made it into the Bible, so it gets made to mean a lot more than was originally intended.

I know someone who seriously believes that anything other than missionary position is a sin, and "will never indulge in such sinful activities."

It probably comes as no surprise that his wife enjoys the company and pleasures of men other than him.

Here's something fun for someone with a believable cover.

Conservatives Not Happy With Sarah Palin’s PAC’s Financials posted:



In the new ad for her ‘SARAH PAC,’ Palin rails against consultants, with a clip from her 2013 CPAC speech where she exclaims: “Don’t let the big consultants, the big money men, and the big bad media scare you off! … Now is the time to furlough the consultants…”

But, as it turns out, Sarah Palin is quite a fan of consultants, if her PAC’s spending is any indication.

As The Daily Beast‘s Jon Avlon reported, having combed through the PAC’s financials, out of the $5.1 million the PAC spent in the last election cycle, only $298,500 was spent on candidates.

...

She's either a rube being fleeced by crooks or very probably one herself. Also still a rube.

It's a similar concept to the more inefficient charities, it's basically a handy way to enrich close friends and family members by making the consulting payouts really high, while spending minimal field money.

You have to understand the genius of her book. Not the actual content of the book, just its mere existence and the purpose it serves.

Sarah Palin writes Going Rogue. Her PAC buys a zillion copies of it, propelling it onto the best-seller list and putting thousands of dollars directly into her pocket (on top of what the publisher paid her to write it). The book is then offered as a premium to people who donate $50/$100/whatever to her PAC, which then pays that money back out to her advisers/family/inner circle. I almost admire the sheer transparency and audacity of the scam.
