Some common signs of know-it-all internet dumbf****

This loud mouth blathering twit stops at almost nothing (if you’re lucky) in his desire to bully everyone into agreeing with him, no matter how half-assed his reasoning is. The following are some ways of telling if you might be the victim of sharing company with him.

He frequently calls people naive, then he calls them naive again if they didn’t accept it the first time.

He ignores contrary evidence.

He assumes his sources to be perfect.

He believes information from any source he doesn’t like is false, even if it can be proven accurate.

He makes judgements based on ambiguous information and refuses to be open about the possibility that he’s being unfair, let alone to the possibility that he’s wrong.

He believes only his inconsistencies to be forgivable.

He sets up abritrary litmuses for labelling people.

He sees disagreement with him as tantamount to a sin.

He routinely distorts and simplifies your opinions.

Beware this incessant crackhead.

A place for everything and everything in its place

That means you move everything to the front until the new things you need push them to the back.

Guilt by association vs. Judging Ability

While I agree much of the criticism against Senator Obama remains based in the fallacy of 'guilt by association,' I also do not think that defense alone wholly precludes the legitimacy criticism of his association with Pastor Wright: not because it would be appropriate to assume Obama believes as Wright does with his controversial statements, it would not, but because there does appear to be unresolved, or unresolvable, questions about Obama's judgement. Perhaps the strongest question from this: If confronted with something unequivocably offensive, would Obama be quick and forceful in his condemnation, even against wise or foolish council.

But, on the matter of judgement, it is Senator McCain whom disturbs me most.

People shall debate how over zealous and vitriolic the statements are of the religious persons who are in some ways affiliated with the McCain and Obama campaigns, but to have heard that McCain's argument against a comparison of his situation with Parsley to that of Obama's with Wright, is based in large part on McCain admitting virtually full ignorance of Parsley's preachings, sermons, what have you, and having met him only a few times, whereas Obama at least knew Wright well (knowing, though, that complete understanding of others is difficult to impossible), is a worse case of judgement than the supposed blindness or denial that Obama could be accused of. At least Obama's apparent mistake is analogous to hiring a relative you knew well but over estimated. McCain's error seems like one of a panderer who did not know well his partner, and who acted with political expedience.

To the many this shall never interest

Have a good day.

To those who claim to just be honoring the full name of Barack Obama

I want to thank you for giving the man the courtesy and respect he deserves, and give you the same by addressing you by your full name.

So thank you, Bull “Fucking” Shitters. Thank you.
