mburbank He's not here today. I think he may be having a hissy fit becuase Dr. Boogie locked his most egregiously self flaggelant threads.

Why doesn't OAO make a thread about it?

mburbank Man, somehow I totally mithed that latht Vinth Potht.

It was a little better. It had two howlers worthy of collecting, and a classic Vinthian lack luster generic sexist swipe. Not bad, but hardly worthy of celebration.

Maybe it's not as accurate as my assertion that you haven't even read Franken's book

Perndog @ "rap philosophical"

That has to go into the "intelligent sentences" thread.

Exaggeration? No, OAO. Exaggeration would imply that there was some grain of truth to the statements. But there isn't any.

So, Vince, where have you been? It's been a while.

mburbank All I can say is, some big words I sort of know the meaning of. But then I think a philsopher I've heard of that I'm willing to bet you don't know much about made some arguments that agree with me. Since I know the words and the philsopher chances are I must be right.

What I mean is, I need you to hate me. It makes me know I'm alive.

Emu Man, I missed you, Vince. The boards needed a good dumbing down.

Once again, Vince displays his razor-sharp wit through generic sexism.

VinceZeb Limbaugh has a greater track record than most people realize when it comes to the statements he makes as being factual. But I guess facts dont play well here.

But in all honesty, Limbaugh is a talk show host, while Franken writes. Limbaugh should be expected to lie more often simply because he gets put on the spot more than Franken. You also need to look at lies per statements made rather than sum total for a fair analysis.

Bush is a comedian. He is so fucking funny. Don't "misunderestimate" him!

Industrialized nations meaning "nations where industries go to recruit children to work in factories for pennies a day" I suppose?
