Lehighhhhhhhhh! So glad to have you back! These other Righties are soooooo boring. Nobody has gotten angry and called me clown since.....well, like forever. Were you banned or just sulking? Anyway, It's nice to know that when you finally come back, you come straight to ME! I once had a dog that used to do same thing. You singled out the public school teachers of Wisconsin to deride with your comments and left out the policemen, the firemen, the nurses, and the civil servants. Then you contrasted these teachers with the people you work with. Wow! Just Wow! Like the people that teach and educate our young children should have to measure up the casino workers of the world. On the scale of things, I think every single card dealer, security person, and waitress should lose their job before one single teacher ever loses their job. Gambling is about the most crime filled organization in existence catering to the lowest elements in society while educators are among the most respected members of just about any society past or present, oh, except by the Right wingers of course. Well, even the best intentioned teacher can't educate stupid I guess. Welcome back buddie!! Deal me in.
I am a member of what? I've know that I've asked you before, and I know it's been a while but don't try to tell me what I think. That's what I'm here for and I really don't need your help. Besides, it's not like you speaking for me is little more than just your erroneous opinion of me, attributed to me. How can that be right unless you've developed mindreading capabilities. How do you like MY new avatar? Yours just looks like a poor copy of my CoinTalk shirt.
Awwww, Moen that hurts my feelings... If you'd like I'll call you a clown. After all, you DO amuse me with your ramblings. Also, there are many other words in the vocabulary that you might find fitting for yourself and here are a few that you may choose from. Please let me know if it would make you feel better and I'll gladly call you any of these: IDIOT BLOCKHEAD BONEHEAD CRETIN DIMWIT DUMBBELL DUNCE IGNORAMUS KOOK MORON NITWIT PINHEAD SIMPLETON STUPID TOMFOOL TWIT NUMBSKULL BRAINLESS DIM DOLTLESS DUMMY FOOLISH GULLIBLE HALF-BAKED HALF-WITTED IMBECILE INANE LAUGHABLE MINDLESS NAIVE WITLESS ADDLEPATE DINGBAT DUNCE LOONY DULLARD DUMDUM DODO BIRDBRAIN BUFFOON DUNDERHEAD SCATTERBRAIN SCHNOOK DORK SIMPLETON FOOL BORE CLOD FATHEAD STOOGE
Gaming is the most crime filled industry in existence huh? Don't you mean the most regulated industry? But thanks for showing the forum that you are level headed and not completely biased on the subject. And while we are talking about corruption, do you even know a single police officer? Maybe we should ask the second most powerful democrat in the country what he thinks of the gaming industry. I bet he disagrees with you as well. Proves my point that everyone acts in their own self interest, including you.
Union Member! Isn't that you local number in your username? Since you rarely think, you certainly need help in that regard. Besides, you should know all about thinking for other people, isn't that what your education system is predicated upon, telling impressionable young clowns what to think. I saw a video of one of the victims spouting socialist propaganda in another thread. You don't expect me to believe he just happened to pick up a book on socialism and started reading it do you?
Sorry, another guess gone completely wrong. Don't think I've ever been in a union. You've also proven that you understand nothing about education again. These "impressionable young clowns" you speak of are far, far smarter than the likes of you. You should really give them more credit. I don't actually see any of them aspiring to become card deals in smoke-filled casinos for the rest of their lives. They may be idealistic at times but that is what youth is all about.
Here's one of those idiotic socialists who you say are "far, far smarter..." and that we "should really give them more credit". Hoo Boy! Well, my friend, you just go on believing that..............
If you are not a union member, why do you support their corrupt practices? And very few of those clowns are smarter than me. Don't blame me (or the casinos) because all those clowns make you feel intellectually inferior.
The idea that teachers, firemen, nurses, policemen, etc., are a bunch of union thugs is just so silly it makes me laugh. The thugs in this country work on Wall Street these days. It just helps to maintain the old stereotypes to divert attention away from the real criminals. And if you seriously believe that the gambling industry isn't filled with organized crime, you are even more naive than I thought you were.
Moen, I enjoyed your response concerning Rahm Emanuel and his run for mayor of Chicago. I'd like to use your response from that thread here (with alterations of the place name): "I don't know why anyone outside of Wisconsin would care about this issue. It really doesn't concern you or me for that matter."
Well who didn't know that the Tommyboy propaganda about the corporate world was coming? The most corrupt people I have ever met in my life are police officers. Furthermore, you don't know anything about the casino industry. If you would like to discuss the casino industry, I wouldn't mind embarrassing you! You see, I actually do work in a casino. You claim to work in education, but refuse to tell anybody what you do at your precious little unaccredited University. Most of us just assume you are head custodian and part of local 1305.
Union busting is a Republican nation-wide project. Walker admitted as much to the fake Koch caller. That makes it a bit more of everyone's business unlike a local election. I know you choose not to see that major difference but your self-imposed blindness does not translate to a disability on my part.
Heck, I don't think the individuals are thugs, most members don't even have the freedom to choose wether or not to even be members. It's the union organization that is the thug.
If Rahm Emanuel comes to Oklahoma, I'll be concerned. If busting collective bargaining privileges comes to Illinois, you can concern yourself. The cheesebaggers got themselves into this financial mess, but their leaders are taking steps to get them out and they're moving in the right direction. Leave Wisconsin to the Wisconsinites.
Actually, even according to the state government auditors of Wisconsin, they would have had no problem with their deficit over the next fiscal year except that their leader handed out millions in tax breaks to his wealthy campaign contributors. And, if the union busting succeeds in Wisconsin, there is a good chance it will carry over to other states. That makes it a national issue. I fail to see why you had so many opinions about Rahm Emanuel in a local election but when a national issue such as collective bargaining for public workers comes up, we should all mind our own business in your opinion. Is it because Walker is getting trounced on this issue and the Republican State Senators are getting recalled?
You tried this "Walker is responsible for the deficit" before (see http://www.prweforum.com/politics/29594-will-get-ugly-wisconsin.html). It sis not work then, why would you think it will work now?
