I think Jeanette has been looking at some selective statistics with regards to healthcare. Ours may be more expensive, but we don't have to deal with technological shortages.

I'll bet you get beat up at school quite a bit, don't you?

Of course, you totally ignore all the other wild aburdities that Rush has stated in favor of the only one that can be reasonably argued. My point is not about health care, which I suppose was a poor choice for a quote, but rather that has made some pretty wild lies (lies which are shown in the other quotes) and that I doubt that Franken has made any that even come close.

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

You should look up the word exaggeration. It's a good concept, frequently employed by posters on this message board.

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.

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 it is cute to see Jeanette X get away from cleaning house and doing dishes to rap philosophical about politics.

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

Emu · #36

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

mburbank · #37

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.

What an original and daring sentiment

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.

Haha. Original and daring? Not hardly. Deadly accurate? You betcha.

How is it accurate if I've never been beaten up in my entire life?

you're overdue.

@ "rap philosophical"

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

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

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.
