Great.
Another thread where Uni displays just how stupid one person can truly be.

Very articulate. This is why I can\'t be president. Dictator? yes. President? no.

You=Stupid

George Washington, Eisenhower and Grant were decent presidents.

Unic, it\'s best to keep quiet so we just wonder how stupid you are. By opening your mouth, you pretty much convinced us that, in fact, you are stupid.

Grant was historically considered a pretty incompetent president. They say his presidency was filled with corruption because of the people he appointed in his cabinet. But in terms of him personally, he was considered decent. I dunno. Just what I learned.

Its up to me if I want to share them depending on the attitude and preconception of my interlocutor.

Translation:  I don\'t know what i\'m talking about so i\'ll skirt circle around the explanation until the thread dies.

And yes, Titan is correct, Grant was a terrible president, but that is because he let his cabinet run the show and they were all completely and utterly corrupt.  But I guess the key thing is, how many of these generals lead the country into another war? Eisenhower ENDED the korean war.


Oh and I see you found thesaurus.com

But McCain wasn\'t a general....?

Welcome to the veer off-topic train.  Unicron threw us off course about 3 posts in.


I\'m not a huge fan of Clark, but his statements are pretty much spot on.  Its a shame Obama has to be thrown into it seeing as he has nothing to do with Clark\'s statement.

I wish I could pull of mistranslations out of my ass too.

There is absolutely no room for me to participate when I am being insulted and you arent as concerned to see an explanation of my perspective but wait for my next reply to attack me since impressions have already been set about me.

Under what state of mind can I pull myself to explain to someone who calls me stupid immediately, doesnt care to see why I think that and tells me to shut up? I know the outcome already if I try to. It wont lead anywhere.

Never took a side in the whole Unigate saga and i\'m not taking a side now but he does have a point.

If I knew I was going to be insulted regardless of whatever my reply was, I would have no desire to explain myself every time I posted either.

Yea....I never had a problem with Uni, and he\'s been taking a beating by some members in here,..i mean yeah sometimes it\'s funny,..but if the guy is giving an honest response to a thread,..and he\'s being insulted on EVERY occassion, then yeah it does start to get a bit tired.


That said tho, Uni,..i\'ve read every post in this thread and with the exception of your last post,...and i don\'t have a clue as to what the f**k you\'re talking about..

He makes silly statements. And you know how we are. It\'s not Uni, it happens to everyone. It\'s just that Uni tends to say silly things more often than anyone else. Most of us do. But we\'re not serious. Uni makes silly but serious statements.

I would work harder to be taken seriously instead of just proving to everyone that I was just a blabbering idiot. But I guess we\'re just two different people :shy:

I can take it to pm if you want. But I am definitely not going to say anything in here knowing how some people will rsspond.

The problem is, he makes statements that have NOTHING to do with the thread and then can\'t back them up.

He gets insulted because he\'s a damn idiot.

Clark\'s comments were over the top.  Obama\'s campaign had Clark say that because Obama, not having any military experience couldn\'t say it himself.  McCain is qualified for many other reasons besides his military service.  Experience in the Senate... what has Obama done while in office again???  Can someone tell me?  

What his military service does show is his commitment to this country.  That is really what Clark was going after since his man can\'t even compare to McCain on that level.  Obama\'s patriotism is still in doubt by a lot of people.  Not wearing a flag pin, not holding his hand over his heart, his wife\'s comments... the list goes on and on.

I just hope Obama\'s minions keep these kind of attacks up - makes Obama look sillier than he already is.  

As for Unicron... back up your statement with facts or shut the hell up.  Maybe in your joke of a country military generals make bad presidents...  it doesn\'t apply here.  As others have pointed out the US has had its share of ex Generals being president including our first President, who did an excellent job.  Core also pointed out that McCain was not a General, so that makes your whole argument void.

You mean you actually believe Obama sent him out to say that?.......i understand being part of a party, but BLINDLY believing anything they say is absoultely absurd...i thought you\'d be smarter than that giga....damn...even when Obama stated he didn\'t remember wright ever talking like that...even I stated "c\'mon now Obama, maybe you don\'t agree with him, but at some point i think you might\'ve known that he had some type of strong opinionated views".

And let\'s not forget McCains right hand men...Black & Liberman...who are using terror tactics to get McCain elected...Black stated..."if the united states had another terror attack it would only help John McCain"....why because of his experience??...yeah...i\'m sure McCain will pick up an AK and be ready to hit the battlefield.....:rolleyes:.and hoping for another attack on american soil is truly sick in my eyes..is this guy an idiot or what?...that\'s sheer nonsense....

Or how about your boy Liberman...."the u.s.will most likely be attacked in 2009 or 2010?" because he states that terrorists will test the new president quickly?...he too then goes on to say,.."and John McCain will be up to the challenge because of his "experience"..:rolleyes:...truly hilarious....just stop while yer ahead,..cause the republicans are diggin\' themselves deeper and deeper and looking really desperate using these scare tactics...sad really...with the shape the u.s. economy is in,...y\'know the no 1 issue in america right now,..these guys aren\'t concerned about that,..they are only concerned about when and if the u.s. has another terror attack,...when all else fails in the republican party,...resort to scare tactics...


Experience doesn\'t matter when it comes to the terrorists,..whoever the prez is, will have a set of rules and regulations to enforce in general if we do *god forbid* have another attack....now maybe Obama & McCain might have some things slightly different here or there but overall if something happened, both would respond to the disaster in similar fashion,...because neither one of them is going to suit up and hunt for the guys who did it,....both will have access to various defensive dept\'s to use at their disposal...
