Warning! Warning!

The post below includes link to news-article and (worse) a You-tube Video. I understand you have difficulty with research and your PC doesn't support You-tube vids. Shame really. Although, if internet searches are not your forte, I suggest your local library can help you to find evidence (if there is any) that supports your self-serving misanthropic world view.

I am so pleased to know that you agree with equally shared parental responsibilities. Therefore, Sarah Palin must represent your image of womanly perfection. Clearly Sarah and hubby have shared equaling in their parenting responsibilites, given that her 17 year old daughter is pregnant. Who'd've thought that abstinence wouldn't work?

You will also be pleased to know that not even Palin's close friends would vote for her. That is because they are pro-choice, which in HRS-Speak means 'evil feminists intent on world domination.' But then I agree with the author of the following article that one's best friends do not necessarily have what it takes to be President of the USA.

>>>"As it turns out, Palin's pals are a perfectly lovely quartet of women who hang out and exercise and eat chocolate, but the video is burning up the blogosphere because some of them are avowedly pro-choice -- in opposition to Palin -- and three of the four won't even say they're supporting her ticket.<<<"

Col,
How does one "talk to the hand"? I await your expert advice. Is it a fun activity?

white lower class british trash pretending to be something he is not.
how sad and pathetic.

Rainier,

Sorry, how exactly has Col's whiteness got ANYTHING to do with ANYTHING. Or his class for that matter?

I suggest you substitute the word black for white in that sentence, then read it out aloud and see if its offensive. I think you'll find it is. Racism is ugly NO MATTER where it comes from, or who its aimed at. You are a BIGOT. Shame on YOU.

Fractelle,
I’ve never meet Sarah Palin, and have only glimpsed her once when walking past a TV set.

But I have read the policies of Obama, and he does seem similar to the sexist and feminist author of this article. He has a policy for women, but nothing for men.

While the black man in the US is probably at the bottom of the heap, Obama panders to the feminists and has a policy for women, and nothing for men.

Maybe he should look at himself in the mirror.

Cuphandle, the ability to drone is all yours…
did I say you are boring?

Rainier “white lower class british trash pretending to be something he is not.”

I assume rainier is referring to me but like most of what he posts, he is obscure, vague, imprecise, inaccurate, wooly.

If he is referring to me, I would observe ‘class’ has never been something I have measured myself against, sure my grandparents were working class (grand pa’s being tool maker on one side, shipyard driller on other). My Dad worked for the railways for most of his life.
That, I suppose makes me “working class”,
Except, on the scale of socio economic categories with accreditations to two professional bodies and a couple of directorships I generally tick box “A1”
Not that it matters.

So “lower class” compared to what?

Nothing wrong with “working”
I can think of many things which would classify people ‘lower’ than ‘working class’

Like gold digging, academic bludgers who sit in ivory towers and look down on real people who work for a living,

And those who suckle off the public teat, the token beneficiary of some misplaced exercise in ”affirmative action”.

‘British trash’, it seems to me, someone who bandies around terms like that should be made aware of the many terms which I cannot use here because Mr Young, in his wisdom, has blocked their deployment at the editing stage.

As for being something I am not,

WYSIWYG.

I make no claims to anything which I have not done or am not accredited to and since rainier and I have never met -

how does rainier prove his claim that I am “pretending to be something he is not”?

He cannot, he has no basis for his ad hominines, he is merely jealous because where I got to be who I am (whatever that is) by honest efforts and ethical practices, he only got where he did by unfair manipulation of events and playing the "pity" card.

PaulL rainier has special dispensation,

his demand, to deploy xenophobic racist vilification, is included in his “land rights” claim.
