[Orrex]

1. I don't need some podunk newspaper to tell me I'm a deranged idiot

[lame54]

3. please tell me you forgot the sarcasm symbol

[Orrex]

4. I never forget the sarcasm symbol

[realisticphish]

11. deranged idiot is on your business card, for pete's sake

[Shell Beau]

23. Nah, and we all know that about you anyway!

:rofl:

[Dr. Strange]

29. True, you don't NEED it.

[marmar]

2. "Fringe" nominees......

Translation: They're not foaming-at-the-mouth drooling right-wing Fundamentalist warriors.

[Kookaburra]

5. That craig stevens sounds like a real gem

You should have ignored him. As Billy Joel said "...you can never argue with a crazy mind...".

[w8liftinglady]

12. well...I am trying to enlighten him....ya gotta start somewhere.

[Javaman]

18. And it appears as if you did. Which sort of blows his claim, regarding we here at DU, as us being

"deranged idiots".

Thank you for work and representing us. :) Cheers!

[EstimatedProphet]

42. Never teach a pig to sing.

[w8liftinglady]

43. well..pigs have pretty high IQs...they can be taught,at least...

[EstimatedProphet]

44. True

Actually, calling these inbred sister-f*cking goobers "pigs" is an insult to pigs. Damned if I can come up with a good comparison in the animal kingdom for them...

[w8liftinglady]

45. lol..I was thinking along the lines of paramecium..

[lunatica]

6. My moniker speaks for me

That statement smacks of desperation to me, and I don't perform on command.

[Erose999]

7. Oh Noes!11!!!1 Edward Chen doesn't like "America the Beautiful"!!1! Stop the presses!!1! Socialism!!

Chen has been involved in many controversial causes and has made numerous inappropriate statements while sitting as federal magistrate judge. For instance, Chen said he did not feel patriotic pride when hearing “America the Beautiful,” but rather “ambivalence and cynicism.”

< / freep >

Because we all know that "America the Beautiful" is not merely a song, but the definitive document concerning the governance of our country, particularly of its judicial branch.

[mmonk]

8. Many of us work hard for such caricatures.

To be called deranged by the deranged should always be an honor.

[w8liftinglady]

41. lol..well-it's happened in all it's glory!

[Ian David]

9. ...

[peekaloo]

10. I love(d) his sign off ....Good Night and

Go Fuck Yourselves!

[xchrom]

13. oy -- a ridiculous column -- i read your exchange with

that craig person.

you are patient.

[w8liftinglady]

14. I don't lower myself.It is non-productive.

i thought that those of you who live in progressive areas would like to see what "WE" are enduring.
This is why it is CRITICAL that those of us in RED states need to work tirelessly to GOTV...unless we want to continue to endure.

And Texas has gerrymandered on racial and financial borders,not geographical ones.Go Figure

[Nevernose]

15. Note to lurking Freepers:

I realize this may be confusing to you, but it's not the military we hate. It's war that we hate, and the hypocritical stance taken by many Republicans that is pro-war but anti-veteran. Also, most of us here are not too fond of inflated military budgets, loaded with billions for useless toys, while many children in America have no textbooks or food.

[w8liftinglady]

36. They don't care-they are un-reccing-without comment.

[AngryAmish]

16. We should all mail our shit to them.

That will show them.

[Dash87]

17. I always laugh when I see RW comments in my local news paper.

They're always uninformed. Luckily, in my area, RW comments are a rarity. :)

[StandingInLeftField]

27. Where do you live?

Can I move there?


Please?

Yours Truly, in SC

[depakid]

19. Reppublicans from Arizona or Texas calling anyone "fringe" is projection of the highest order

If they weren't such nutters themselves, they'd realize that every else in the world considers them quite rightly to border on some form of mental illness.

[pinboy3niner]

20. Congratulations, Beth!

You really got their attention. And if they're directing more of it here, perhaps there'll be a little less drivel over there. Besides, they might even learn a thing or two.

Good job with Craig, too. Your work in support of troops/families/vets obviously impressed him, and you won his respect--and even an apology! Perhaps he'll be a little less likely in the future to broad-brush DU as 'anti-military.'

I don't see fellow Americans who disagree with me politically as the 'enemy,' and I hope Craig's exposure to you may influence him to modify his view of us here at DU. Next time you run into him, tell him 'Semper Fi' from another vet at DU. (I was Army, but the Marines aren't so bad, once you get used to them. They're just, as they say, misguided. :) And I've had some good times celebrating their birthday with them at the Iwo.)

Looks like this is one more way in which all your work is paying off.

:patriot:

[w8liftinglady]

21. they have been misguided by chickenhawks.

they still need veterans care.the chickenhawks have no clue as to veterans needs-they just endorse perpetual war-with someone else's kids,of course.
if this at least helps these guys/girls get the help they desperately need,then it's done some good.
we can disagree.it's cool.we just need to agree that these troops are suffering...for what?

[HughBeaumont]

22. "DemocratUnderground.com" . .. Jesus, at least get the site correct, fucko.

I have more brilliant political insights in my fingernail than you pee-pees have in your same brain.

[WorseBeforeBetter]

50. It's intentional.

Aren't they clever?!

[Hepburn]

24. You got thumbs up from me on your responses...good job! n/t

[leveymg]

34. You have my respect for hanging in there.

You must have some deep roots to stay put in that patch of earth. Not that it's much different from a lot of the region.

But, you know I had a close friend from Eagle Pass, and he LOVED that place. Guess, home is home, and the rest is just somewhere else. :toast:

[w8liftinglady]

35. well-my kid plays football...otherwise I would have hit the highway...

and probably will once they are grown...


By the way-the message is out-they are unreccing...

[leveymg]

37. Who would unrec this? Do you smell trolls in these woods? Could be . . .

[w8liftinglady]

38. i welcome their expression of their opinion...with the facts to back it up,of course...

[WingDinger]

30. Thank GOD, finally we warrant inordinate coverage on Fox.

[w8liftinglady]

33. LOL..we should be so lucky-they may be forced to report...truth.

[BrklynLiberal]

31. Might be deranged..but an IDIOT! I do not think so.

and former repuke speechwriter is just the one to go to for a "fair and balanced" piece on this...DUH!!!:crazy: :silly:

LOVED some of those great responses. brilliant...

[w8liftinglady]

39. lol..and,BTW-This is in the "News" section-not editorials.

[BrklynLiberal]

40. wow....just wow

[old mark]

46. ...and I bet he thinks Free Republic is a bunch of Patriotic Real Americans...

and Fox "News" is true.

Proves yet again you don't have to be smart to work in the Media...

[w8liftinglady]

47. I'd hate for the night crew to miss out!

[Terra Alta]

48. DemocratUnderground.com?

I have never heard of this site.. could someone point me in the direction of it?

[TK421]

49. I'm not deranged, but my doctor told me I have multiple personality disorder

and I told him he had the wrong guy
