Get used to the country music, nationalism, and fellating of the military. It's all part of the Democrats replacing the Republicans as America's default party.

Latest assassination threat against the president is, of course, from North Carolina and of course he's black. wait, what?

http://nymag.com/daily/intel/2012/09/nc-man-arrested-for-obama-assassination-threat.html

Quote

If the allegations against 21-year-old Donte Jamar Sims are true, he made himself a poor representative of two groups — North Carolinians and stoners — when he threatened to assassinate President Obama in a series of Tweets. The account caught the attention of the Secret Service when the message “Ima hit president Obama with that Lee Harvey Oswald swag,” was posted early Monday morning, followed by, "The Secret Service is gonna be defenseless once I aim the Assault Rifle at Barack's Forehead." According to the Smoking Gun, when agents showed up at Sims's home in Charlotte on Wednesday, he admitted that he made the comments because he "hated President Obama," but Tweeting while high on marijuana was also a factor.

Obama sucked Israel's cock and celebrated killing Osama, though. So there's that.

I'd imagine Obama's team was worried about giving too much hope'n'change fodder to the Republicans with a sweeping, grandiose speech - they would have loved to seize on that as proof he's all sizzle and no steak. By actually talking about policy (unlike Romney and Ryan) he is trying to make this an election about the future instead of a referendum on the past.

Mandark · « **Reply #18622 on:** September 07, 2012, 03:47:46 PM »

Yeah, they're definitely trying to match the tone to the situation.

In other news, my FB friend actually did delete the racist comment on his post. That's probably the bare minimum expectation for acceptable behavior, but props anyway.

Mr. Gundam · « **Reply #18623 on:** September 07, 2012, 04:03:41 PM »

I've got one guy on my FB list who I've known since kindergarten and played summer league baseball with until we were 18. He comes from a farming family and is very conservative. He typically makes one or two angry posts a day about Obama and the dems. They're typically not terrible, but his friends who comment are awful people. There were a few guys who were going on and on and on about Sandra Fluke and how she's a gigantic slut-whore who wants us to pay for her to have sex. I thought it was parody, but sadly that's how they really feel.

Mandark · « **Reply #18624 on:** September 07, 2012, 04:16:29 PM »

I also shat up Cohen's FB page a bit by engaging with a conservative friend of his. Usually don't do that, but I got to throw out all these budget stats I've wasted time memorizing and see if I could force some sort of comity (nope!). And hey, the mess isn't on my wall.

Sorry Cohen!

Human Snorenado · « **Reply #18625 on:** September 07, 2012, 04:20:58 PM »

Oooh, no way would I get roped into a "discussion" with that guy. I've learned to stay far away from people whose hobbyhorse is a straight-up ethnic conflict, and Israel-Palestine is the #1 example. Only exception is maybe trolling someone into accusing me of anti-Semitism, so I can be all "I am not ~~left-handed~~ a gentile!"

I had a similar experience with someone I went to high school with. Had to axe him because reading the replies to his passive aggressive bullshit was making my blood pressure shoot up. Then when I made a snarky post about it someone was like "you defriend for political reasons???" and I was like, uh yeah dude. If it turns out you're a backwards thinking fucktard I don't want to be friends with you, even of the pretend superficial internet variety.

I don't understand this mindset, to be honest with you... the "oh let's let bygones be bygones and I'll believe all sorts of stupid, backwards ass bullshit and we'll still be friends, teehee" crap. This shit matters. You should think about it. You should WANT to think about it. You should CARE that other people DON'T want to think about it. You should be willing to engage other people in conversation about it. Politics and how you think about it is not something that gets handed down to you like a birthright; you're totally capable of evolving over time and learning new things to inform your opinions. Crying because other people post shit about it on facebook doesn't make you too cool for school and above it all; it makes you sound like a whiny bitch who doesn't like getting their worldview challenged. Sack up and defend your positions, or you must not really care about them all that much.

Holy crap, I had only read the start of that FB thread.

Romney has the "Midas touch"

He doesn't need to establish his bona fides because of his executive experience in fixing shit.

Wtf?

What is something that makes everyone who touches it change its stance on whatever it is currently doing? That is what Romney is, but I can't come up with a good name.

The Flip Flop touch doesn't sound nearly as marketable as the Midas Touch.
