1. Well, you can begin by NOT posting links to such garbage at DU.
It isn't my intent to be mean to you, but all DUers are very wary of posters who post links to anti-Kerry sites, and then ask how to dispute it.

12. If your level of discourse at the "football forum" is as elevated as...
it is at DU, then they won't listen to anything you say.

Angry little devil, aren't you. :hi:

18. I only get angry at freepers
Freepers that attack DU members. The type that suggest they are spies, attacking their level of discourse, they say that anyone disputing right wing lies is stupid etc.

20. Well, telling a fellow DUer to STFU qualifies as unjustified anger.
Assymetrical response, wouldn't you say.

23. Depends
If the DUer attacked me in a baseless and vile manner, then I would say no. I can think of nothing worse then to be accused of being a freeper.

25. Please post a link to any thread, any post, where I accused you...
of being a freeper.

I'll be waiting.

35. Just go to reply number 1
Clearly and implication that I was a freeper. Perhaps you have some sort of other explanation for your reason for "all DUers being suspicious". In the past when I asked for help people were quite helpful and provided a wealth of knowledge and help. It would appear all those people are off tonight. Instead I get insults and abuse instead of help. I have to say there a lot of people on this thread that should be ashamed of themselves and their actions.

38. Still waiting for a post in which I called you a freeper.
How you take what I said is YOUR problem. I didn't call you a freeper...if you think I implied such, that is only your interpretation.

46. Nice try
The problem is you haven't explained your statement. You have not explained why every DUer would be suspicious of me. Why would every DUer be suspicious of me?????

4. Why I am fighting with a freeper on a football board
He posted this crap with pride. I figured some people here were intelligent enough or well informed enough to help. I am beginning to think I might have been wrong.

6. you've got to be kidding me... they're wasting time on THIS?
Well, you could always tell them that, whether or not it's true, it's a really stupid thing to be upset about. They are apparently "Football fans for Truth"... So, are they actually aware that the World series is a series of BASEBALL games? LOL

OTOH, you DO know how close Boston is to NYC, right? Depending on the times of the banquet and game, it is quite plausible that he could have been at both. He may have also been mistaken. But who cares? This is such a nonissue.

11. That doesn't help
I checked the links they are legit. I was hoping not to have to pay to read the entire article on the banquet in a hopes of finding a mistake. I would like nothing more then to prove this site and it's message to be one great big lie. It would help my arguement that republicans can not be trusted.

22. Yes, with help like MINE, Kerry will win the election!
Because I am out walking the precinct, putting up signs, registering voters, and will be driving many to the polls. You, meanwhile, are arguing with freepers over the stupid link you posted.

Yes, with help like mine, we will win this election.

:-)

Just posting a bunch of phrases, ellipses, and n/t.

9. If someone votes against kerry because he refered to Lambeau field as..
'Lambert', then there's no hope of saving that ignorant mind anyway.

I don't care enough to dispute that.

15. The story is indisputable.
Sometimes you have to admit defeat.
As long as you're voting for Kerry, try
not to think too much. For some people,
not necessarily you, thinking about things
too much can be counter-productive.

but you're blind to them because you're looking
for a flashlight at high noon.

27. You owe me five dollars
for the minutes of my life wasted reading the bullshit at your link.

WHO CARES? If a freeper told me this was an important thing, I'd switch to some REAL issues, or string together every fuckword I could think of, and make some graphic suggestions of some new sexual experiments he might wish to try with farm animals.

Dispute that story? Why?

Which post are you referring to
The one that called me a freeper?

The one that sugested I hit myself over the head with a hammer?

Perhaps the one that wanted $5 and yelled at me for asking for help?


In the past when I asked for help, I got quantity and quality. I am not sure what happened to the board or if it is just a bad night with all the good DUers being off.

40. Nomad, I'm not trying to demean your attempt
but this site is just another asinine attempt by the bush* campaign to use nonevents to smear Kerry as they can't come up with anything policy related to help them. No one there is really going to listen to reason.

But if you want to try, the best retort I can think of is to ask why it matters? When they come up with the old line about this being a sign that he will lie about anything, you have them. I'm sure if you've been reading DU you have a thousand examples of bush* lies that actually mean something. You can start by talking about "yellow cake" and end with social security.

Hope this helps.
