shocking audio from Rep. Dingell

Post by hunter5 »

claims Obama care is to control the people. Now this could be taken out of context but expect right wingers to jump all over this.

Does anyone actually have the full audio so we can get more context?

Its from breitbart.com I wouldn't put much stock into it.

This is only "shocking audio" if you honestly think that a sentence fragment constitutes an argument. Yes, he carelessly used the phrase "control the people", but in the same sentence where he accidentally said that there are only 300 Americans, not 300 million. Obviously, he is not a master wordsmith.

He certainly wasn't saying that the bill is about totalitarianism, as hunter5 seems to idiotically think; he was actually trying to explain why it takes so long for the bill's provisions to come into effect.

hunter5 is just being a typical raving Republitard. And he's such a coward that he won't defend his bullshit, as usual. He'll just post Rush Limbaugh talking points and then scurry away when challenged.

There have been a number of threads he's run into, made a few claims, then run away when called on them. Immediately springing to mind is the 'Teabaggers getting nastier' thread.

Yeah but Hunter hasn't made any claims yet in this thread so really it appears Wong is over-reacting.

Why do you call it "over-reacting" if he merely points out a trend?

Besides, Huntard MADE a claim right in the title "shocking audio.." when it is, in fact, not shocking at all.
Also, "claims Obama care is to control the people" just shows that he is too stupid to understand the concept of context.

I thought it was a fairly consistent tactic for a certain type of internet troll to post a 'question' about some controversial issue/talking point and then run. That way if pulled up on it they claim they were only asking a question.

e.g. I heard black people are stupid, is that true?

It took skimming the whole thread but I spotted what you were talking about.

While I agree with what you are saying, some old moron shooting his mouth off and gitting his facts wrong doesn't strike me as being particularly controversial. It's like asking about an Internet troll, usually pointless unless you have a vested interest in the topic being trolled.

Feel free to say I'm wrong when hunter5 comes back in here and makes a lengthy and well-reasoned defense of his claim that there is something "shocking" and disturbing about what the representative in question said (or for that matter, when he comes in here and mounts a reasonable debate of any kind).

You're a fucking retard. The fact that he only posts "single lines" is precisely what I'm talking about.

Or maybe you're a fucking baby for making such a big deal. All the thread said was "shocking comment" and then he said quite frankly, it could be out of context but Republicans will jump on it and then wants to know if anybody has the full clip for context. You then throw a hissy fit about how he's a Republican jackass that doesn't understand the audio and claiming that he's making fascist and authoritarian claims when he's not. Fact is, half the shit you claimed he did, and I'm not the only one who found your sudden outburst strange.


Just face it, you jumped the gun. He didn't say half the shit you're claiming and even the one line you're throwing a tantrum about the "shocking" part, is so little to act like this. Maybe he pulls this shit regularly but wait for him to actually do it before jumping on him. Take your own fucking advice out of the forum policy page and shut the fuck up.

So no one has the full context of the audio?

Since no one else did any research Dingell claims he goofed. Make of it what you will

Yeah, you and one other newbie who are apparently too stupid to notice that all he ever does is post half-assed one-liners.

What "shit you're claiming?" Are you seriously saying that any normal person would hear that and say that this little audio clip is "shocking", or that Dingell seriously means to "control the people", as per what he says in his thread title and his OP? For that matter, only a Republitard would even think this is newsworthy at all in the first place. Any normal person would know that this means nothing; some guy obviously misspoke.

And oh look, he did it again: another half-assed one-liner. No attempt to even defend his original notion that this was ever newsworthy at all, never mind "shocking". Not that you will concede the point: you're obviously being a fucktard for the sake of being a fucktard.

Ahh, that's your excuse. You didn't agree with it at all, you just used a description you totally disagreed with because it was used on another website. Riiiiight.

And you thought it was seriously newsworthy because ...?

Yeah right. Just reading through your posting history indicates you actually believe this bullshit.

If it was anybody else BUT you, I don't think anybody would give a shit. But you have a history of retarded one liners that you run away from like a bitch. Fuck, I even pointed this out last week. It's obvious you were testing the waters with your first post. If you got some support for your shitty out of context quote you were going to post some teabagging bullshit, if you weren't you were going say "Hey! I just put it out there for discussion"

Seriously, grow a fucking pair of balls.

"He certainly wasn't saying that the bill is about totalitarianism, as hunter5 seems to idiotically think" No where does Hunter claim that the audio is about totalitarianism, like you claim. The point is, if Hunter actually makes accusations and they're retarded jump on him for it. But actually wait for him to do it, right now his comments are void of any real intellectual merit to actually have any meaning to get riled over.

Lets go through this with slowly.
Alphawolf55 wrote:No where does Hunter claim that the audio is about totalitarianism
He posts an article called "shocking audio from Rep. Dingell", which is an out of context quote which portrays the Senator as being 'totalitarian' (Just read the dumbshit teabaggers comments underneath it). hunter5 obviously thinks this out of context quote has some merit because he has actually bothered to post it here. Further evidence he actually believes this bullshit is his posting history.

He's just too much of a pussy shit to actually say it because he knows he will have to defend his claims.

Like I pointed out above, hunter5 is too much of a pussy shit to actually make accusations and backup his arguments. He makes insinuations (Like this bullshit thread, what the fuck is the point of this thread?) that he can later deny with "I didn't mean it that way!" or "You are reading too much into it!". After doing this for some time he has finally been called out.

You amazingly managed to miss the point (What a surprise). It's his content free one line insinuations that has pissed people off. He is never going to post anything with "intellectual merit". I noticed your bum chum friend acting like in the exact same pussy shit manner last week.

I am sorry I just like posting stuff and letting people discuss it. I suck at debating I don't have the confidence to find sources ( and most of the sources I know would just be called bullshit here anyway so no point in trying). I will refrain from posting anything that upsets the people here. :banghead:

If that's the lesson you're taking away from this, then you really are a moron. People would prefer if you didn't just contribute one-line spammy posts. If you don't feel that you can do your beliefs justice, then you could avoid posting in N&P, or you could study the way people justify their political beliefs and determine how you can do so from that.

Nobody forces you to post.

I delete most of my posts before submitting them because after looking it over again I find I am not contributing anything new. Maybe you should do the same (looking over a post again before submitting it).

Hell, I almost deleted this post ...
