How many of the Gore/Kerry supporters rooted for George W. Bush?  Did you (in 
2004) when he beat Kerry?  He was YOUR president, too.

In fact, ISN'T BUSH YOUR PRESIDENT NOW?

Spare me the let's all get behind the president.  Was that your attitude when 
you were spewing hatred for President Bush?

P.S.  I agree with Hendrik about the use of racial slurs - especially those

Donald, you do have a point that hits me personally, even though the
statistics of that election were a lot less likely to garner support from
those who didn't vote for him than are the results of this election.  By the
time he actually won an election he had done so many things I could not
support that it was pretty difficult then also.  Your point is still valid
though, and I did not support him willingly - nor did I actively seek to
have him fail [as I see in some emails today.]  I will say that I have more
support for him today because of what I think are changes in his methods if
not his policy. As I have said before, I will continue to feel that if he
had gone into office more like he is today he would be able to leave office
more like he entered it. Approval rates in the gutter might seem totally
because of the economy, but I think also reflect the 'cowboy' attitude I saw
in his early years.  I think he has learned a lot from his years in office.

It's OK for them to say it, but don't you get caught saying it.
There was a big flap locally a few years ago because a coach wanted his players 
to practice hard, train hard in the weight room, in short they were expected to 
work like N*s and Let's see some of that N* work ethic. The coach was white, 
the players mostly black, and no offense taken in the locker room, but when a 
reporter overheard some of it and published it, the libtards had a field day.

Re: [MBZ] Hood star and the people that wear hoods

2008-11-10 Thread Bill R
From my experience working with blacks professionally and having a son who
is black,  the use of the  term within the racial group is quite different
than the use of the term from outside the group.  One is 'in the family' and
the other is always an insult.  Remember when Ted Danson used blackface to
deliver what would have been Woopi Goldberg's routine to a black audience?
It would have been funny if she had delivered it, but was offensive [and she
didn't understand why] because he did it.  I can call my brother a
conservative redneck [he is] but anyone outside the family best be careful
how they address one of the people I admire greatly for his personal
character. I don't make the rules, I just call 'em as I see 'em.

Kinda makes you wonder how bad it really is, when it is a common term 
amongst those who should be finding it most offensive.  Intellectually 
I understand how it has become that way, but it still makes me wonder.

Re: [MBZ] Hood star and the people that wear hoods

My hips are toast after bowling. Usually lots of liquid pain number is
involved (usually not welcome at the church functions) and I don't realize
how jacked up I am until next day.

Subject: Re: [MBZ] Hood star and the people that wear hoods

i'm more sure that it isn't polio than anything else.  my issue is that
everyone makes this polio claim.  if you go to hyde park, all they do is
talk about his polio.  obviously, he suffered from a disabling malady, but
to just keep repeated was polio doesn't seem right to me.

on a side note, i went bowling today with the church.  you'd think this to
be a pretty safe activity, but my knees now are functioning particularly
poorly after bowling 3 games.  i remember when the local bowling center back
in queens in the early 80s would have $1 games during weekdays and i'd bowl
15 to 25 games in a day with no ill effect whatever.  guess a quarter
century of abuse can do that to a fella.

 I've had it (very minor) as long as I can remember, but I'm starting to
 lean away from the polio theory and more towards something else, like CP.
 There's no way to tell for sure.
 When I was two, I got an early sample of the Sabin live culture polio
 vaccine. I got stomach flu and had some paralysis (mostly left leg) about
a
 week later. I wasn't the only one who got sick after being immunized that
 day, but the neighbor's daughter (several years older than me) only had
flu
 symptoms. OTOH, I'd already been vaccinated with the Salk stuff, so to get
 polio from the vaccine I'd have had to pick up no immunity from the Salk
 vaccine and then had the bad luck to get polio from the Sabin vaccine.

 I'm still very much against continued use of the Sabin vaccine, especially
 since even the CDC admits that the majority of the polio cases in the last
 30 years are vaccine induced. There's not much natural poliomyelitis in
the
 world today, and virtually none in the USA. I can't believe Thunderbird
has
 'poliomyelitis' in its spelling dictionary, but not 'Obama' or even
'Osama'.

 No I don't think he accidentally posted it to the wrong list, personally 
 I don't like that type of language on a semi-civilized chat list. Also 
 this is not the first time this sort of thing has come from this 
 individual and he was asked to not use those racial slurs, as it offends 
 and drags the other listers down with him in some respect. It makes us 
 look like a bunch of backwater racists who drive Mercs because Hitler 
 was chauffeured around in them.
 Further that post can be interpreted as an incitement to murder the 
 President elect, which may well be an illegal act.
 I strongly suggest that you lay down some rules in this regard before it 
 gets out of control.
 I do not have a problem with people saying they do not like the 
 President elect because of his policies but when it is racist based, it 
 becomes another thing altogether. I dare say there are plenty of places 
 on the internet where racists can have a chat, like that stormfront 
 forum. I don't have a problem if people say they think Obama is stupid, 
 as was often the case with dubya but his African background should not 
 even come into it. He could not choose his heritage anymore than anyone 
 else, it's like another lister attacking Roosevelt's disability, did FDR 
 want to have polio? I am not saying being of a different skin color is a 
 disability but rather trying to say we are what we are, some things we

Re: [MBZ] Hood star and the people that wear hoods

2008-11-08 Thread Gary Hurst
i'm more sure that it isn't polio than anything else.  my issue is that
everyone makes this polio claim.  if you go to hyde park, all they do is
talk about his polio.  obviously, he suffered from a disabling malady, but
to just keep repeated was polio doesn't seem right to me.

on a side note, i went bowling today with the church.  you'd think this to
be a pretty safe activity, but my knees now are functioning particularly
poorly after bowling 3 games.  i remember when the local bowling center back
in queens in the early 80s would have $1 games during weekdays and i'd bowl
15 to 25 games in a day with no ill effect whatever.  guess a quarter
century of abuse can do that to a fella.

 The people who came up with that theory seem less sure of themselves than
 you do.

 I've had it (very minor) as long as I can remember, but I'm starting to
 lean away from the polio theory and more towards something else, like CP.
 There's no way to tell for sure.
 When I was two, I got an early sample of the Sabin live culture polio
 vaccine. I got stomach flu and had some paralysis (mostly left leg) about a
 week later. I wasn't the only one who got sick after being immunized that
 day, but the neighbor's daughter (several years older than me) only had flu
 symptoms. OTOH, I'd already been vaccinated with the Salk stuff, so to get
 polio from the vaccine I'd have had to pick up no immunity from the Salk
 vaccine and then had the bad luck to get polio from the Sabin vaccine.

 I'm still very much against continued use of the Sabin vaccine, especially
 since even the CDC admits that the majority of the polio cases in the last
 30 years are vaccine induced. There's not much natural poliomyelitis in the
 world today, and virtually none in the USA. I can't believe Thunderbird has
 'poliomyelitis' in its spelling dictionary, but not 'Obama' or even 'Osama'.

 Mitch.
