    Ricter,

    So you see, Tsing Tao et al only regard you as a decent and thoughtful debater when you concede any of their points. Otherwise it becomes an IQ thing. If you disagree, it becomes an IQ thing. If you respond in kind, it becomes an IQ thing. Worthwhile, isn't it?

    To know that I reach them emotionally, without (being the first to) insult, by presenting readily available data, is very pleasing. And it's excellent exercise, since their convoluted arguments do take a bit of unraveling to find the juiciest flawed premise.

    Edit: oh, and I love when I can take one of their own teammate's views and give it right back. God, that's fun.

    All very well done. But you expend far too much energy for these subterraneans. I used to be like that once. I chalk it up to youth. Even so, it's fun to watch you work.

    I think you're correct. It's about time for me to go catch some nice, fat Esox lucius.

  5. Now we'll see food taxes for not eating the right food, a fat tax for being a burden on the system, a workout tax for failing to keep yourself healthy, etc.

    Comrade, what are you saying? Are you saying that the government is wrong? I see that you are. Please pay your Governmental Critism Tax immediately or report to the nearest Citizen Re-education Center if you cannot afford this tax that you now legally owe.

  7. Sadly, this isn't far from the truth.

  8. AAA didn't this really all start with SS? I mean today's ruling brings it to another level but how is this any different as a tax than SS. We are forced to buy SS through taxes, now we are forced to buy healthcare through taxes. Of course with Roberts ruling what is to stop congress from making us buy anything through taxation. i can just picture the education reform act, everyone has the opportunity to go to a 4 year school, and those that can't pay their loans DON'T worry, we the taxpayers, got you covered. maybe we will all have to buy electric cars to save the environment from the boogeyman, who knows maybe everyone is entitled to a car, house, job. A new jobs bill - you can't lose your job because you need one. :(

    Even if BO loses the election, is there any doubt in anyone's mind that we have turned the corner? The free markets, our liberty all of it is gradually eroding and has been for some time. The progressive (socialist/communist/marxist/retarded) agenda is WINNING. Once people get these entitlements and pensions etc, no matter how unsustainable, they will never give them up nor vote for any candidate that wants to take them away. And we have more people that are going to be receiving govt assistance, they simply can't afford new costs and taxes, in a generation their kids will be part of the entitlement class. dark days ahead for the USA.

    What about the WI recall vote, I thought that was a win for your team?

  10. It was, along with the cut in entitlements in the two CA districts.. but overall we are losing and the ground we give has an increasingly diminishing chance of being retaken.
