There’s that, plus there’s the fact that they could not think, spell, or otherwise write cogently if their lives depended on it. These are the kids who begged teachers and professors for “A”s because they showed up to class sober some of the time.

Here’s proof. Corker ran two TV ads in the days before the ‘06 election in which he “introduced” his family; he ended the ads by saying, respectively:

“I’m Bob Corker, and I approved this message because I wanted you to meet my girls”

and

“I’m Bob Corker, and I approved this message because I wanted you to meet my wife.”

Those folks have singled out the State Department for the lack of presence they have had in this whole theatre of operations. I have said “amen” to those critics as diplomacy has indeed been in short supply. Here though Corker is fingering the Treasury Department. This tends to show me that Corker is lacking in many of the same areas he being so critical of Bush shortcomings. Corker has also sat in on a number of hearings where he was in a position to press on his concerns yet said nothing. Laughter of the unfunny kind seems to be the appropriate response.

That was a public service announcement directed at the Bush cultists.

You may return to with your regularly scheduled programming now .

Sorry George, didn’t mean to derail this thread. It’s an older thread and I wrongly assumed it wasn’t of interest to others.

No need to apologise, Bartlebee. My post wasn’t directed at you. My apologies if you got that impression.

I just wanted to remind the blind followers that even Republicans now are discovering how uncurious and shallow George Bush is.

It’s almost scary it took them this long to figure it out. He must have had them scared witless with his stories of the Muslim bogeyman.

There was some name-jacking done here even after the registration, one of the trolls was boasting about how he pulled it off. Please trust me on this, there is no way Ralf is anything but 100% genuine.

I agree with that 100%, but sometimes the ba$tards derail important threads and the concern trolls confuse the issue. I am all for exposing trolls for who and what they are, then ignore them or talk about them. It is a waste of bandwidth trying to reason with them.
It should be interesting to what tactic K troll will use next. He has lost the use of a couple of his alter egos this week, they have been marginalized. The little turd is not going to give up easily.

This thread is about a Republican Senator being surprised at the lack of depth in Bush’s knowledge of Iraq, and the lack of complexity in his conversations about it.

In other words, this Senator just felt short of calling the man you so revere “stupid” and/or “ignorant”.

That’s the man you idolize, as described by one in his own party. Now sod you.

Is that what you meant?

yes

Please go back to that thread and pay attention to messages #10, #14, #15, #17, #18, #21, #24, #27 & #28
What do you think, does message #21 sound like someone you know?

Ralf, I agree with you, there are several trolls fouling up TP. But in my opinion, there may be one or two individuals who are using more than identities. I’m curious, have you noticed that one of the more benign trolls has been keeping a very low profile here, since he was accused by a few TP posters of being the troll UL?

Ah, Trollology.

If you are refering to me, not sure, I haven’t been posting much lately but am still only one person.

They wouldn’t be able to F w/ yer head if we would just ignore them and report them for abuse. Or talk about them like they weren’t there. That really makes them mad. What we need to NOT do is to give them the recognition they so clearly want. I know I occasionally fall into that trap, but I still think we need to stop doing it.
