(I just couldn't bring myself to use the full "F" word, 'cause my post may be just under the wonderful California Peggy!)

WTF? that guy needs to be banned.

They are a cable channel. I don't like them just the same as you but the key is to ignore the channel and be persuasive and factual with their followers.

that "WTF" look on their faces when He tried to explain it.

This has become a sad, surreal country. It is ridiculous that the Republicans can oppose everything Obama does to the point of being silly as this is. The media will report their stupid shit as if it is a valid point of view, when they are not starting it themselves. The RW media has used our airwaves to brainwash and misinform Americans. Now the Republicans have purity tests which prohibit their politicians from doing anything approaching compromise or being reasonable, even if they want to.

Our country is literally run by the Plutocrats now, with only an appearance of Representative Democracy and that facade is starting to fade. How anyone other than John Roberts cannot see that massive campaign contributions to get or keep candidates in office will not obligate the politician to do the bidding of their benefactors to continue to get the money and stay in office is beyond me!

How anyone in their right mind believes this crazy stuff is also beyond me. At some point I think my RW, former friends would look at something like this and say "Whoa, stop, that is a bridge too far! I wonder what other shit they have been saying is false?" As well as asking themselves "Why are they saying this to me?" But no, they won't ever stop to even consider that they are being sold a load of crap, they enjoy attacking Libs and Obama too much to realize that they are the Dupes!

What I meant to ask was, "Have WE, meaning us Progressives/Liberals/Democrats had enough of this crap to start a movement similar to OWS, with the express purpose of getting the money out of our political system?"
I don't pretend it would be easy because it would not be, but it is doable! I am encouraged by what our side has done in Vermont and California with the Article V Constitutional Amendment, but disappointed that they seem to stop at overturning Citizen United and "money is not speech." Half measure will allow the Plutocrats to keep control, just make it a little harder. We need Publicly Funded Elections and COMPLETE Campaign Finance Reform.

During the 2012 Republican primary, Ablow wrote a column arguing that Newt Gingrich's three marriages actually made him more qualified to be president. He wrote: "When three women want to sign on for life with a man who is now running for president, I worry more about whether we’ll be clamoring for a third Gingrich term, not whether we’ll want to let him go after one." The column was criticized, with Rod Dreher of The American Conservative commenting thusly: "Oh for frack’s sake. At some point, you have to wonder when shamelessness crosses the line from character defect to psychopathology. If only Dr. Leo Spaceman were a Republican, he could have a lucrative career on Fox."

Sometimes you can't help but wonder if they can hear themselves.

from fake news.

Doctor of ding-dongs maybe?

FOX news 'Psychologist'.

As I once heard it described - basically studied to be a gym teacher.

...to keep winning because Benghazi!!

Absolutely. With improper grammar like that, I'd say he's suspect because he's a sheepdip.

ahead for just the right moment in time.

When their own coach says their winning the Cup is "not realistic..."


rocktivity

is emblematic of one reason the US mental health system is in such trouble…..too many people like him went into the field to try to fix their own problems….and FAILED.

Too funny.

I am so tired of these impossible arguments that would make any sentient person blush.

You certainly are suspect.

Methinks this dumbass doesn't know which sports most sport watching Americans watch. Not a knock on soccer, but it isn't real popular here.

Dude, you've got an awesome sense of humor.

Love it!

Thanks for the thread, EarlG.

In the immortal words of Bugs Bunny, "What a maroon."

...of demographic trends that spell doom for their party in the long term. Ann Coulter's latest piece of clickbait (link NOT provided) is also about how it signifies "moral decay" (ie diversity) in America.

And it's almost breathtaking in its stupidity. She argues, among other things, that "The prospect of either personal humiliation or major injury is required to count as a sport." As someone said about Sarah Palin, "The stupid, it hurts."

last night. Even the three ladies with him were surprised at the stupidity of the comments. The thing is this event was in the planning for several years. There goes Obama with his time machine again.

Here's a salute from a young Dutch soccer fan.

Will the FOXoids join in with us in chanting USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA!

First Ann Coulter claims soccer is a liberal conspiracy, Now this?

Move over, Christmas; it's tje War on Soccer!

Faux snooze is past it's sell by date.

His rant was ridiculous. That said I'm one who finds that the appeal of soccer eludes me. If true believers wanted another sport to thrive here I would have preferred lacrosse or Australian Rules Football - you know, not just kicking a ball up and down a field all day using just half your limbs.

I did see we advanced by losing, nice.

Either he's completely out of his mind or just extremely challenged for new ideas to talk about. If it's the second, this is really saying a lot about how dumb he thinks Fox viewers are and how they will buy anything as long as it's anti-Obama, like space aliens coming down in the night to program certain Americans to support Obama.

.... the entire world is beholden to Obama. In some respects, this is true.. We have traveled a good bit in the last ten years or so and have failed to find anyone who doesn't think Obama is a better choice than Bush. Western Europeans think the GOP is insane and even "second world" countries know a lot about us. A linen store owner in Spain said " they hate him because he's black". A Colombian on a cruise laughed about their climate denial. Several Canadians on a tour of China wondered where Americans get their ideas about the health care system.
WE haven't lost the respect of the world, but they are bewildered about the current political climate

Oh wait, it's scheduled every four years. Ablow, in a land of morons, an idiot can be king, and you sir are looking mighty regal about now.

that Obama guy is just sooooo crafty!!

So how soon before Fox So Called News supporters demand an investigation on President Obama's controversial scheduling of the World Cup?

was a proud Republican.

Brown University, Johns Hopkins, what in hell were you thinkin'?

BTW, his wiki says he speaks on FOX on matters of psychiatry. I guess that includes the famously Freudian (not) World Cup?
