Edwards Esquire cover

This was a fine read - a former Penthouse magazine editor dissects the magazine cover below, in fine detail... with a hilarious twist.

Great editorial and rather accurate - The expression on his face is almost as if he can hear the blonde behind him moaning seductively, yet he can't quite make out where she is. Rather funny indeed. Good one UT.

Well that tells us which valley ValleyGirl065 comes from. (yes that is an insult because ValleyGirl065 cannot tell the difference).

As you well know, ValleyGirl065, after posting so many attacks in response to never being insulted, then you will be insulted repeatedly. Insults are overt – as you were told. Implied insults only existed in ValleyGirl prejudices. Insults now will be repeated so that you can finally grasp the difference between a logical comparison verses an insult. Your prejudices are so great that you even see insults where none were posted and none was intended. As stated so many times before, when I insult, then nothing is implied.

Do you think after attacking me numerous times for no reason that I would remain quiet? How many times must details of ValleyGirl065 be posted before he knows the difference between a real insult verses one perceived by an emotional ValleyGirl? Let's see. This is the same ValleyGirl065 that recently posted text dripping in hate and fear of Arabs. Not really an insult because that ValleyGirl065 bias was obvious. How many others does ValleyGirl065 have a racist hate of? Denial? Racists always do. A ValleyGirl also with racial hatred. No wonder he takes insult even of logical comparisons.

The world does not revolve around ValleyGirls. When you attack others repeatedly only because you 'feel' insulted, well, notice how often this will continue - until ValleyGirl065 decides to stop attacking for no reason. ValleyGirl065 is a 19 year old who is quick to worry about his vanity and with so little grasp that, well, did you learn yet how to get it up? Masturbation finally worked. Of course I am making a major assumption. I am assuming ValleyGirl065 even has manly qualities. You take insult where none exists - just like a child. Can you finally count some chest hairs? No they don't mean you are getting smarter.

For others, this is what ValleyGirl065 assumed was an insult:
Demonstrated is a difference between what yesman065 saw and what I saw. That yellow school bus: time to worry about it was long ago when this failure was predictable. Whereas contents of that bus were immediate concern to those on the bridge, instead, the rest of us should be worrying about all school busses.

So ValleyGirl065 repeatedly attacked this poster because ValleyGirl065 just *knew* that must be an insult. Enough. ValleyGirl065 was told that insults are blunt and obvious. Apparently he knows nothing until he has enough examples.

ValleyGirl065 assumes a logical 'contrast and compare' must automatically be an insult. After being repeatedly attacked by ValleyGirl065, well, ValleyGirl065, do you now see the difference between a simple post of logic (how people see the same event differently) verses your emotionally biased assumptions? Notice how many times this will be explained. After all, ValleyGirl065 only has the attention span of a high school education. For him, that is complement. Too dumb even for college? Yes, that is what an insult looks like. Honest people don't imply insult. ValleyGirl065 was never insulted. Being so teenage emotional, you did not know the difference. So now these realities are posted - and posted intentionally to insult. Do you get it yet. Do you understand what an insult is - complete with a description of your pathetic education. You don't even have enough smarts for college? No wonder you cannot tell the difference between 'compare and contrast' verses an insult. Of course you will deny it. That is what a ValleyGirl does. Deny only because you don't like it.

Maybe you want to stop inciting this war and deal instead with that paragraph as it was written and as it was intended. But that means you must suddenly become an adult. Your choice. Stay emotional or terminate what you started.

Demonstrated in that paragraph are how the same event is seen differently by two different people. I would have never guess that was enough to set off a teenager. But then teenagers can be emotionally unstable. ValleyGirl065 - its all up to you. Do you want to end this or do we go nuclear. Its all up to you. Do you finally know the difference between a logical discussion verses an insult? Like I said, if I wanted to insult you, everyone would know it. Do you now hear me?

Which way do you want to respond. Will you stop attacking only because you fear you were insulted. Or are you manly enough to go logical having finally learned what an insult looks like. Your choice, ValleyGirl065. Do you react using something besides hormones? Child or adult. Which path do you choose?

Good read. I don't think Edwards is going to get the nod.

It's fall too early to even guess who will get a party nomination. A more relevant question is who will be running by Super Bowl 2008. Democratic survivors appear to be Edwards, Obama, and Clinton.

More interesting is the Republican slate. Polls suggest that Republicans find all potential candidates too centrist. Betting on who might be viable candidates at Super Bowl 2008 is a complete crap shoot - a perfect oppurtunity for someone not even seriously considered to take the nomination as Nixon did in the late 1960s. Any articles making predictions for other Republican options? Not for nominations. Who might be a viable Republican candidate as of Super Bowl 2008?

Tw has posted in here an assault on Yesman065 that seems more to belong to "Politics ad Absurdam." Carelessness and inattention to detail? Undue emotion? Bad character, ruled by his resentments, however petty or inappropriate?

Your call.
