You simply can't do a good job if you don't actually believe in what you are fighting for or against. If you are gay and trying to fool people that you are not, simply to get elected, then that is fraud and you were not doing your job. You are not representing the people or a company, when you actually represent what they are against and you are trying to keep that fact hidden by joining in on the lynch mob, so you can have a job.

If Weiner was all about family values and sexual morality, then it would be an issue. But it's not because Weiner has been very laid back in that regard and never made promises that he couldn't keep.


What you fail to realize is, it's not my "logic." It's yours. I just fed it back to you with Republican examples and suddenly you didn't like your own "logic." You then wanted to change your "logic" and I would not let you commit an ad hoc rescue. Basically, you've not improved in the least since your last appearance.

That makes me sad.

You know, I was inclined to agree with the OP, but then I thought about it: What if I discovered Bill Maher isn't an insufferable douche when he's off camera? It would completely change my opinion of him, and I just don't know if I'd be able to continue to buy into his smug dickholishness after such a revelation.

I can tell you one thing: Bill would be opposed to the banination of trolls, mostly on the grounds that it stifles free speech.

I, on the other hand, think it effing rules!

I don't see how this was a surprise, Acid. I mean, it seems to me that she's probably been involved with a lot of groups whose activities inspired the pitching of tents.

Kennedy was a hypocrite. Btw, Hey Man, that is the logical fallacy of appeal to numbers. I hope you are paying attention and learning something.

Yeah and millions of people are gullible and stupid as well. Do you see the correlation?

Your Kennedy thing is not "an answer." It is a logical fallacy.

Nice shot.

Follow the chain...before you were banned, you asked this question. Some people really do care Kennedy was a whoremonger. Now be more interesting before you're banned again.
