Our what?
« on: November 03, 2012, 11:07:37 AM »
The Romney campaign is running this on Youtube:

Political tags - such as royalist, communist, democrat, populist, fascist, liberal, conservative, and so forth - are never basic criteria. The human race divides politically into those who want people to be controlled and those who have no such desire.

What's your point??   ???
"Belief" is the acceptance of a hypothesis in the absence of data.
"Prejudice" is having an opinion not supported by the preponderance of the data.
"Knowledge" is only found through the accumulation and analysis of data.
The plural of anecdote is not "data"

Romney campaign can't spell. Read the ad closely.

I'm just wondering if it's the opposite of "pantry".  =D

Oops.  (It's obviously the part of the evil Republicans War on Women.)
If there really was intelligent life on other planets, we'd be sending them foreign aid.

Conservatives see George Orwell's "1984" as a cautionary tale.  Progressives view it as a "how to" manual.

My wife often says to me, "You are evil and must be destroyed." She may be right.

Liberals believe one should never let reason, logic and facts get in the way of a good emotional argument.

I just came across that ad on a YouTube page, and it's been fixed.

If Obama tries to make hay out of it, Romney should fire back with an ad saying "We apologize for the fault in the subtitles. Those responsible have been sacked."

They'd get the Monty Python vote, anyway.

Necessity is the plea for every infringement of human freedom. It is the argument of tyrants; it is the creed of slaves. - William Pitt the Younger

Perfectly symmetrical violence never solved anything. - Professor Hubert J. Farnsworth

I would have expected Obama's last minute surprise to be better than that.   =D

This is Obama. He hasn't done anything right since he won that contest about 4 years ago.
