Again, you show yourself incapable of making distinctions. Failure to support your invasion proposal does not equal love of Castro.

Nice evasion, but you obviously are not going to renounce your Castro-love. He gives the reacharound and you can't resist, no? NTTAWWT.

Hon. Richard Posner had a very interesting piece in the NYT Book Review yesterday discussing liberal and conservative complaints about the media, and their economic causes. I recommend it to y'all, especially while the NYT still lets you read it for free. I have said here some of the things Posner says, but not as well. There are a few statements that seem empirically wrong to me, but those are details.
Jack Shafer didn't care for it that much:

"Sloppy writing like Posner's is enough to erode my trust in American jurisprudence."

To the extent Posner contends that the established press further left, I'd have to agree with Shafer's assessment. Perhaps Posner should stick to writing about our future Robot Overlords.

To equate his political prisoners with the detainees at guantanomo is beyond ridiculous. Bush and the military did not place those guys there because they supported Kerry in the last election. If Kerry and his supporters were at Guantanamo then it would make more sense.

Why do liberals love Castro so much? I just don't get it. He locks up and tortures political opponents and he has destroyed his country.

Yet I call him illegitimate and that is called absurd?

I call him a despot and that is called absurd?

He runs the most opressive regime in Latin America. Yet that is considered ridiculous. Can someone name a regime in Latin America right now that is more oppressive than Cuba?

I guess, in the liberal mind, if you critisize capitalism, no matter what you do, it can't be all that bad.
LIberals love Castro? Why do ultraconservative, downwardly socially mobile white men love to categorize Liberals? Thats like saying porno lesbos enjoy sucking dildoes.

And if you're saying that taking power through the barrel of a gun is wrong, then isn't this an indictment of our glorious history in general? I put it to you, Spanky - isn't this an indictment of our entire American society? Well, you can do whatever you want to us, but we're not going to sit here and listen to you badmouth the United States of America.
Flinty, where are you on PB Spanky? He isnt the British Gent of the SSB, no?

I don't get lesbians and dildos. Can you explain? I can see lesbians not liking male genitals, but I don't see rejecting guys then buying fake male genitals and having them used on you by another woman.

Perhaps it's not the genitalia per se, so much as a more personal level of rejection.

I was asking women. I understand why you like to take them up the butt.

See, my original post was "perhaps they're not rejecting the genitalia per se. They're simply rejecting you."

I decided to edit it, remembering your "be nice" motto. No more, Chinaski.

Maybe it's not penetration per se, so much as preferring pretty soft sweet-smelling women's bodies over hairy sweaty ugly men's bodies. I mean, getting penetrated and getting to play with (real, not ick fat wanker) breasts? What better?

I can't believe I have to explain my analog to you. OK, I don't think they do as a whole, despite what the male porn watching population would like to believe, though there could very well be some who do. So Liberals who love Castro are the dildoe loving porno lesbos in my hypo and the Male Porn Watching Population s SPanky. Classic generalziations, simplification and mostly mischaracterizations to support a belief that really has no place in reality for the most part, but helps the fantasy along and gets him off on some emotional/ejaculatory level.

Politics is a dirty dirty game and you have to be tough to survive. I'm actually impressed that the PB Spanky aggressively stands up for himself and his beliefs, misguided and unpatriotic as they may be.

Paigow,

I did not take Spanky to be attacking your father. He was saying to you, alpha male like, "we aren't talking about him now." It seemed to me simply spanky trying to be assertive and manly. Once you've read this board for awhile you'll see that he is one big-assed shot and always on conference calls where his opinions are sought out and well-compensated. then he comes here and his opinions are dismissed.

how could you not expect some reaction? Its like when people argue with str8 over the merits of the selections for the next ex-celeb reality show. sure, we all want to voice our opinions, but some opinions are uber alles.

It is up to Spanky to apologize, explain or excuse his comment. Clearly there was some ambiguity in interpreting its intent, so he can clarify that, or not. You cannot do it for him, as much of a peacemaker you try to be.

Apologies are rare on the PB. You may have better luck on the SB.
