Wait...all this Leena shit was legit? Fuck. A good place to start to rebuild this place? Undo the folder name changes made during her regime.

I can't eat lunch at the cool kids' table? Burn.

She was STILL trying to pass those camwithher pics as legit right to very end? Sad.

Would it be considered spamming if someone PMed me the address for the other board without sending the address to 499 other people?

Wait....this Leena bullshit was legit?

Personally, I just think this whole episode has been the greatest April Fool's Joke ever.* Though, technically, starting the gag a few days early and then letting everyone off the hook on April 1st is probably cheating, but whatever. *Except for about a couple of hundred dozen other jokes I'm sure I could find if I were inclined to do the research.

The RNC's Michael Steele or The Office's Michael Scott? You decide!

From another thread... In other news, here's a piece on criticism from the left, specifically Paul Krugman. http://www.newsweek.com/id/191393

RepoMan is my picture posting hero.

GM CEO Wagoner to step down at White House request Either the Republicans are going to applaud that he's stepping down because GM sucks and shouldn't being lugging dead weight around if they want to be competitive in a open market, or (more likely) they're going to offer this as more proof Obama is trying to run the private sector, even if he is just following through on policies started during the last days of the Bush Administration.

Well THAT shouldn't be too hard to hit with another plane.

From the Murphy/Tedisco special election in New York state.

One of the main differences between homosexuals and racial minorities is that homosexuals can pretend to be straight. They've escaped a lot of persecution that way, whereas minorities could not.

Treating this like child pornography makes about as much sense as arresting a masturbating 15 year-old for statutory rape.

Should we warn him?

I never said that. Stop being dumb. So you're saying you don't have a problem with doing a comparative defense of the U.S. in regards to other countries, so long as I don't actually say anything about the history of the other countries with which I am doing the comparisons? Yeah, maybe instead of lecturing me with contradictions, you should just shut the fuck up and stop trying to tell me what to talk about. I'm done talking about this now.

To review: -Criticism of the U.S. when comparing to other countries = acceptable. -Defense of the U.S. when comparing to other countries = off topic. Any other inquiries about special circumstantial rules should be sent to [email protected].

Yup, that's right there on page 17...along with this gem: I'm going to use what I've learned through years of studying visual presentations to analyze this information: Fannie (a.k.a. the Federal National Mortgage Association, but let's never ever call it that) = bad. Freddie (a.k.a. Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation, ditto) = bad. Bailouts = bad. Recovery = good. Little kids = cute. Moms = blonde. Dads = gay.

Once again, he wants to put the U.S. on trial and ignore the history of every other world power which have done things far worse and with far more detrimental consequences. Regarding the slave trade, I don't think the United States should be blamed for the policies of the nations which controlled this land prior to the founding of the U.S. in the 1770s. The British and the Spanish Empires were the ones that brought slavery to America, not a government that didn't exist yet. Allowing the slave trade to continue from the 1770s to the early 1800s, and then allowing an internal slave trade until the 1860s are immoral things the U.S. did and allowed, but you can't point a finger at the U.S. for things that were done while were colonies under someone else's control, because that absolves the true culprits. Regarding the Mexican War, it should be noted that Mexico was unfairly compensated for the land they lost in the war, but the land they lost was also stolen from the Native Americans by the Spanish before Mexican independence. Not that it makes what we did right, but Mexico's own claim on the land was dubious as well. I don't want to make this a personal argument (though he already has), but I'm waiting for the post where X.C. blames us for the Holocaust. That's how ridiculous this is becoming.

I'll let the stupidity of this speak for itself...

Zing.

That's an excellent point, sir.
