It has to be pretty hot if Coyote said that, since he's gay and all. :P

If yall have a get together you can count me in, as long as I don't have to drink beer. I'm more into liquor, rum and vodka being my usual choice. Beer just tastes bad to me. At least with liquor if it tastes bad you only have to drink a little bit to get hammered. :)

lol I'm not that gay. I'm bi. I'm not often attracted to women, but when I am... I don't know, I can't explain it. But I have a weird misogynistic streak in me, and I get along better for the long term with men.

I love beer more than anything else. Domestic, import, micro brew, homemade, whatever. I hated it when I was younger, though.

LMAO.. I knew the racist thing was coming. I just call it like it is though. I'm debating. I'm not calling anyone names. You guys are responding. You just don't like my views. I've said before and I'll say it again. I would be willing to call any man my equal or woman for that matter. It is what it is though!

You lost me on the rest of that though :roll:

I'm still LMAO about this. You call me a racist for stating the facts. Don't just call me a racist. Show me where I'm wrong. For your info I believe I was told I was talking out the other end of my body. If thats not disrespectful nothing is and that is what brought this on. For another, if you disrespect me I will disrespect you! I've noticed people tend to blow up and get hysterical when they don't have a response worth posting. How did this become about sexual organs? Are you just perverted that way? The nationalist bullshit is called patriotism. You should try it sometime. I can't help it when the truth hurts. It was very good of you to stand up for your friend. I was beginning to wonder if Dems stood for anything but social programs and higher taxes.

Lets face it! This is a pro Obama website with a pro Obama administrator that attacks his members when they say something he doesn't agree with. Instead of just coming out and saying your wrong and stating your case, you attack the person in question. Debate is when you allow someone else to speak and respond. You guys want it one sided. Politics Forum my rear! Stand up and post a response and quit your whining!

It may be a pro Obama administrator, but it's not a pro Obama website. I've made, what, about three posts to you? Please point out where I have attacked you.

It's definately pro Obama! When I read post in other Topics I find post where AlicornsPrayer has had to tell people they would be banned for much less than what oddmanin had to say. Then I read this..

this is a public forum, and ANYone can reply to your posts---- the fact that you would abuse someone for having the temerity to respond to your racist nationalistic bullshit is quite telling of your nazi wannabe aspirations--- damn shame you cant come in here and respectfully debate without showing your ignorance---- you wanna cry when your tiny little baby fist gets slapped, dont go stickin your tiny little fingers in peoples faces---- and you can keep your tiny little dick behind its tiny little zipper, too---- NObody wants to see that poor pitiful thing...

It sure does look that way. AlicornsPrayer can speak for themselves on this one because I would like to know. Is that the kind of conduct you condone? I could really get trashy! myself but I just prefer not to. I wasn't looking for that kind of debate. I do expect it to get a little offensive at times. I wouldn't expect Obama to go after McCain like that. Could you Imagine Obama tellin McCain how little his weaner is? I almost have to laugh because you got to admit it would be funny to turn on the TV and see that.

Sorry I offended you so badly oddmanin. I disagree about the size of my weaner though. I would very much like to debate this but that might not be appropriate. :shock:

1) I get it now the cops are driving around handing people crack to sell and its the governments fault that women have 10 babies to get big welfare checks.
2) Is that all you can come up with is an insult? Who was addressing you? When I need any lip off you I'll pick it off my zipper. This is not a politics forum. This is an "I love Obama forum". I can't help that your candidate has a history of hanging out with racist people and Hamas supporters
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

i take full responsibility, and if i gotta get booted, so be it--- these are the comments that rattled my cage---- #2 sounds as if you were askin for contention, deplored that just any old body should address you, and frankly, i strongly doubt mccain would advance the zipper comment in a debate--- in my eyes that denoted such sexist derision as to be quite disgusting---seriously uncalled for, and not amusing---- but hey, thats just me... ..."...Is that the kind of conduct you condone? I could really get trashy! myself but I just prefer not to. I wasn't looking for that kind of debate...."----coulda fooled me---- while i'm quite appreciative of the apology, maybe you could toss one off at killer, too.........btw--- not pro obama, but hate the brewing racism--- not naive enuff to think it doesnt exist, but i think this forum has enuff integrity not to foment it--- and as for " a history" of hanging out with various and sundry 'undesirables", i think bushy and co has had QUITE the little history doing that... http://globalresearch.ca/articles/MAD201A.html . AANNYwho, thats my story and i'm stickin to it--- thanks for the olive branch, i too extend one---- respect can be a beautiful thing...

So in other words, you cannot point out where I have attacked you. You just made it up on the spot. As far as conduct I condone, so far you have managed to bash Mexicans, blacks, "welfare moms", and all liberals. You whine and complain that this is a "Pro Obama" website and insinuate that because some of us mentioned getting a beer together that there's some sort of conspiracy going on. Plus, as far as I can tell, you are the one who threw down first with this little doozy:

When I need any lip off you I'll pick it off my zipper.


Sorry, babe, but I'll back oddmanin and Alicornsprayer over your whiny ass any day, no matter who started it. Is that fair? Doubtful. Who promised you life was fair? Get over it and move on.

Ah...Sorry, but this isn't a 'Pro-Obama' site...But our members do get sick and tired of the Anti-Obama crowd coming in here and rehashing urban myths repeatedly...Which is the type of posting you engage in.

Many of our members are 3rd party voters...The rest are undecided or not voting for a president at all...But the one thing we all have in common is the fact that we aren't sheep and don't fall for the fear mongering tatics YOUR side is fond of. We've all researched the canidates, as well as been bombarded too many times by ya'lls urban myths about one particular canidate, and simply do not want to hear your fabrications anymore about this particular canidate.

Secondly, our site doesn't have too many rules here. The only thing anyone here has been 'banned' for is creating posts in size 18 type repeatedly (after being told to stop doing so repeatedly after warnings, of which we've had to edit the posts down to normal size repeatedly)...Or for repeatedly spamming the board with other site links...Or multiple accounts.

In fact...We've actually not banned any members. Handed out a few (and when I say few, I mean VERY few of them) temporary suspensions...Of which the suspended members have full memberships here still and are free to post at any time they wish to once those suspensions had ended. Of course, any multiple accounts they may have created are deleted, but their original ID they joined up under are still active...

The only 'banned' memberships we have are multiple IDs, with the original ID still a full membership (meaning the original ID isn't banned)...Just their other multiple accounts cause no member here needs more then one ID to post under. And if they create a new ID to post under if their original ID is suspended? That just may earn them a longer suspension under their original ID as long as having the new ID deleted...Cause we also don't tolerate members trying to go around their suspensions by creating new IDs to post under...

Other then that, nobody here has ever been banned for their political positions or for debating their political positions. Let alone any 'tone' in anyone's posts (for/against any particular canidate). If that was the case, then you'd have been banned by now if this site was supposedly 'Pro-Obama'...

So do us and yourself a favor...Don't make things up about who you think has been banned or what those reasons were in your feeble, urban myth gossipping mind makes up about why a member may have earned a suspension.

And what's wrong with what was said there? Is the fact that we don't have an issue with members that aren't US based? It bothers you that Killer isn't American?

Or are you trying to twist what he said into something other then what it is?

My guess is you're exaggerating what Killer said in order to pretend that he was saying something towards yourself...And basing it off the smiley? Just how immature are you kiddo?

Sorry, but members here actually get along despite disagreeing on political positions...And as such, there isn't one of us here that wouldn't like to see our group get together off-line and meet up face-to-face to enjoy actual debates in person. As well as general chit-chat about life period.

Like I said above...This forum doesn't have too many rules. That's how Coyote likes it and that's the way I'll run it for him. We don't tolerate direct out attacks against members (which hasn't happend to you at all)...We don't tolerate spamming of the board, and we don't tolerate posts written in the biggest type found on the text bar.

And nobody here has gotten 'trashy' with you period. But you have been set straight when YOU'VE choosen to put yourself in the position of telling OUR members whether or not they were allowed to respond to discussions on this board..

And them pointing out to you that you don't have that authority to tell them they can't participate, isn't 'trashing' you in the least. That's pointing out the obvious...Just like as long as you keep trying to pass off urban myths as 'truth' about ANY canidate here will be countered with the same manner of pointing out the obvious.

So let's get this straight for you to understand...YOU don't run this board. YOU aren't in the position to tell which members can participate where in this board...YOU are a guest here only. And as such, the ONLY people here that have a say in what is appropriate or not or who can participate or not on THIS board, is the Administration and moderating staff...

I really doubt you are sorry about offending Oddmanin. From the post I read of yours, you were being purposefully offensive towards Killer. You seem to have issues with anyone here that doesn't swallow your urban myths hook, line, and sinker like yourself and other gossip mongering anti-Obamanites. Get over it.

Like you've been told repeatedly already, IF you want to discuss politicians, just lose the fear mongering urban myths about the canidates. Stick to REALITY, not assumption and wishful thinking...

Otherwise you'll find yourself in the position you are currently complaining about...Having your posts pointed out for exactly what they are...Urban myths aimed to promote fear mongering and disinformation.

I feel a bit responsible for all this tooing and froing.
Australians and Americans basicly have a different sense of humour.
Your comment about Rev Wright speaking from his mouth amused me, especially as it had been pointed out to you that he had been selectivley quoted and the full text of his speach was published.

My response about you speaking from the other end of your body was a comedic way to point out to you that you were publishing gossip and mis-information. I think its called irony.

Your comments about what is published anywhere else except US also amused me. You have just slotted yourslf into the "typical American" view that most people who don't live in the US have of the average American. Unaware and uninterested in anything that is said or done outside the US.
Unfortunatly for the rest of us, what happens in the US effects the economies and the social structures of most of the rest of the world. The arrogance shown by this f*** you I'm allright approach to world affairs has led to the "ugly american" sentiment from the rest of the world.

Most extrnal governments now support American foreign policy because of economic fear rather than friendship. And I'm talking aboit government to government here not people to people.

Do you realise that every time the Dow drops 10% because of internel American issues the rest of the worlds stock excanges drop by the same amount or greater? That's just one of the reasons why me and others who don't live in the US are interested in US politics. It's in our interest too that you get the mix right.

This is not meant to offend anybody and it may come as a surprise to you but the average American is not viewed very highly by the rest of the World. Your current president is seen as an ignorant redneck in the pockets of oil companies and is the base for most of the views formed. The other factor is your TV shows and movies that usually show an America that is lawless and corrupt. We are bombarded with these images created by Americans for the worlds consumption. As an example compare the James Bond image (A British spy) with The Bourne trilogy or Mission Impossible trilogy. The british version is working for the Government against the bad guys but usually the American version is the good spy working against a corrupt US government. I realise these are only movies made to entertain but the underlying message is usually that the US is corrupt and this is becoming the view of the rest of the world.

Americans should travel more, read more and listen to other ponts of view. The rest of us have the advantage with CNN and Fox to know more about you than you know about us.

No worries, killer. This is by no means the worst uproar we've experienced here at APF.

Your points about how America and Americans are viewed by the rest of the world are well-taken. Now if only our leaders and the people who elect them would listen to you, and others like you who have been trying to tell us this for years.
