I DID NOT SAY THAT!!!!!
But the INTENT is different. One you do to for financial gain, the other gains you nothing financially. And one you are burning YOUR OWN property, in the other you are burning someone else's property. Is this news to you? Am I giving you too much credit?
So Americans were morally superior in the Great Depression because insurance fraud inspired arson is always better than burning someone else's building.
Well, we finally agree. Stick it to the insurance man, Birther Blue!

Taix:
Let me get this straight. In this thread about the American economy you say a question regarding the stimulus does not belong in this thread, yet you have brought the issue of where our current President was born into the thread.
So just answer the question:
How was the community organizer's 'stimulus' supposed to work? Or put another way, what was theory behind the 'stimulus' money getting the economy moving again?
Since we are discussing(by your prompting) the moral distinction between the London riot and riots during the Great Depression in the U.S., which you painted as more moral(this after saying they didn't exist). Now you claim to be drawing different distinctions that have nothing to do with the discussion.
You did argue exactly this, and now you're shifting.
In this thread about Buffett's comments...
No, I said make your own thread. Would you quit making up things I'm saying WAAAAAAAAAH...you say a question regarding the stimulus does not belong in this thread,
No, I brought up that you were a birther, I will bring it up for years. I have not seen any real world reason to question where the president was born.yet you have brought the issue of where our current President was born into the thread.
Start a thread about it. Or find one that already exists. This thread is about Warren Buffett's comments. That's how threads work.So just answer the question:
How was the community organizer's 'stimulus' supposed to work? Or put another way, what was theory behind the 'stimulus' money getting the economy moving again?
No, I did not.
No, I did not argue that. You just said I did. But that's par for the course with you.
I'll try again: Theft is theft, and it is wrong. But someone stealing designer shoes and someone who is stealing food to survive have different motivations for their stealing. Wrong is wrong, but the reasons/motivations for those doing those wrongs are different.
Actually, you did.
Actually, you did.No, I did not argue that.
And now you'll pretend all riots in the depression were food riots again. We already covered this.I'll try again: Theft is theft, and it is wrong. But someone stealing designer shoes and someone who is stealing food to survive have different motivations for their stealing. Wrong is wrong, but the reasons/motivations for those doing those wrongs are different.
...about the US economy.
If you said to start a new thread, isn't that saying it doesn't belong here?
And if it doesn't, why won't you answer the question?
So will lie about someone you are debating/discussing topics with?
I asked for posts of mine showing I'm a "birther". You have not came up with any. Yet you will still call me something you can find no evidence that I am. That says alot about you.
Fair enough.
So why did you bring up where the community organizer was born in this thread?
Quick lesson.
You cannot discuss "the economy". You can discuss, "Warren Buffett's comments on the economy", or "Trickle-down theory" or what have you, manageable topics. The Economy is not.
This is a thread about Buffett's comments on the economy. Start another thread, or, better yet, show good netiquette and find one that's already out there and revive it.
No, it means on a forum, if you want to discuss something with everyone, you don't go to a separate thread each person is on talking about something specific that doesn't directly relate, and expect every one of them to humor your childishness, you act like an adult and start a thread or find one that is directly about your topic.If you said to start a new thread, isn't that saying it doesn't belong here?
Not a lie, you were our first forum birther.So will lie about someone you are debating/discussing topics with?
I tried to make clear that a coming out party for you as a birther would be like Rip Taylor's coming out party for other things, not exactly necessary, but you apparently don't follow subtleties like Rip Taylor not really needing to come out. You were apparently the 1% shocked by Liberace's life story.I asked for posts of mine showing I'm a "birther". You have not came up with any.
At least I was never a birther.Yet you will still call me something you can find no evidence that I am. That says alot about you.
I didn't, I brought up that you were a birther. Distinctions are tough for you, aren't they?So why did you bring up where the community organizer was born in this thread?
Anyone who knows anything about the Great Depression knows there were riots other than the food riots. In fact, most are less likely to realize there were food riots. Since you were the one who brought up the Great Depression, I assumed you weren't completely and utterly ignorant of the topic. Are you saying this was a mistake? Are we supposed to provide a secondary school primer for you because your high school history was apparently lacking in this?
Then prove it.
Just because you say it's obvious and you don't have to prove it does not make it true. Show us my posts saying he was not born here.
Would you like it if I called you a child molester and when you asked me to back it up I said, "It's not exactly necessary. It's as obvious as Rip Taylor's coming out party. You must have been shocked to find out Liberace was queer." Would you like that?
Well I don't like being called names that do not apply to me. So prove it, or stop. If you prove your assertions, I wont say a word if you type it 1000 times a day.
Nor was I.
But at least I'm not a liar.
No, but being called something I'm not doesn't make me happy. Would you like it if I started assigning labels/manes to you that don't fit?
