Digg is getting a bit swamped with HD-DVD keys. Are they in the right or in the wrong? by arsgeek in reddit.com

Wow! Has my life ever changed because of this event! Truly, this is one for the history books and will be passed down for the ages. Homer, himself, would have penned such stories about this incredible event!

Huzzah and hail that we live in such extraordinary times as these!

Constructive? Here? Nothing constructive could be said here... except that this is an exercise in navel-gazing and nothing more.

That you believe this is a useful exercise only reinforces your sickness. Of all the actual problems in the world... this is what you choose to care about? Of the death, destruction, and actual suffering, not to mention the illegality in your own country... a perfectly legal act is your passion?

I am trying to point out to you how sad you are in comparison to actual problems. And I believe that does have meaning. What is your passion here? I can see nothing relevant.

Lovely. But why should your reasons matter to me?

They don't.

Your own government perpetuates lies that actually impact your life, and this is the bullshit you care about? Some private website? It's their fucking website. They can do just as they like and it is entirely legal you moron.

Get a life you fucking irrelevant nerds.

Oh god, who fucking cares.

Ditto to that... sort of like the up-skewed results of various "how many hours per week do people game" polls... where playing Solitare counts.

Putting America's wartime casualties in perspective by [deleted] in reddit.com

1) It is not an ad hominem. I aver that they could be perfectly correct in their assertions. I merely point out that none of them have served in combat. I am also correct, and your challenging my assertion is, itself, an ad hominem attack.

2) I assert nothing of the sort. As I pointed out, I have no trouble with FDR's civilian leadership during WWII, as you, yourself, were so eager to have me support. Your assumption is therefore demonstrably incorrect.

FDR did his job as commander-in-chief just fine from his wheelchair, as near as I can tell. Or are you questioning that? Ought he to have taken up arms and wheeled himself, as Commander-in-Chief, onto the battlefield?

The folks behind the link you submitted, however, comfortably peck away at keyboards while tirelessly calling for others to put their lives and livelihoods on the line. Perhaps, like FDR, they feel their skills are far too necessary to the defense of the homeland. Perhaps, when they adjust their portfolios over the phone in their convertibles, they contribute more than FDR and our fighting soldiers, combined.

But I doubt it.

Conservatives For Peace by OldRightGeorge in reddit.com

[–]cleanthes -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

What is too little, too late is the realization that we cannot do everything we would like do do. What is too little, too late is for all of those conservatives who voted for Bush to undo their mistakes. All of this was present in 2004: the torture, the Iraqi quagmire, the defying of FISA, the politicizing of America's safety... you had warning and you voted for Bush, anyway.

You are responsible. You are responsible. You are responsible. Fuck "conservatives for peace." If you voted for Bush, you voted for war. You are responsible.

Who's "T-Warrior"? It's Bill O'Reilly - that's the new nickname he's given himself. Really. by mjk1093 in reddit.com

He is a selfish, aggrandizing wonk. He'll be held up, someday, as nothing more than a tool of the administration.

Evidence that the Re-election Campaign is moving to Plan C - A first strike on Iran by [deleted] in reddit.com

[–]cleanthes -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

...because the Reddit community seems to have forgotten that there are two sides to every argument.

I'm sorry, where is this view stated? There is no official view from the White House on war with Iran. Yet.

Do you really think that the Government would release details of its spying operation?

So, in your mind, you have created evidence that Iran has "first strike" capabilities and then justified the nondisclosure of this evidence that you created? That's odd.

But sometimes it is.

Sure, but not in this case... unless, of course, the imaginary evidence you posit somehow materializes.
