DailyKos has upset my stomach frequently lately too. A few years ago, the Libs/Dems were more based in reality, but appear to me to have decided that making up a fake world to live in worked so well for the Cons/Repubs that they will now follow that policy too.
Reality is that "economic" (capitalist) conditions will get rapidy worse, and permanently, in the immediate future, and people at DailyKos think that all that is needed to solve it all is to elect Dems. rrrright ... and what are they gonna do?
You sound like a bird of like-minded feathers.  I agree with you completely about the reality you see coming - that is as I see it to.

Real Cut-Throat Capitalism Nature's Style and the mindless among the far-left liberals would be eaten alive in the First Round.  Not that I care who runs us into the ground.  It just gets boring hearin the childish, self-pitying whimpering from THEM and then watch them do NOT A DAMN THING about it in their own lives or Own Home Towns ... Just Pick a ScapeGoat for why their Fantasy World Could Not Compete in Mother's NATURE.

Ijits.

Energy Officials Meet Over Fuel Shortage

Energy authorities are holding crisis talks with petroleum providers to try and resolve the fuel shortage situation. (blah) said government had to intervene following a countrywide fuel shortage that hit Botswana this week. "Oil industries have been rationalising amongst themselves," said Molosiwa revealing that since last December, government had made different interventions in the oil industry business.

This follows a critical shortage of fuel, which began in South Africa at the weekend and spread... problems at South African refineries...

"...criticised motorists for what he termed making the situation worse by panic-buying fuel."

Does your rant here have a point?

And was your reply to yourself trying to clarify what you said?   Because your response didn't expand OR clarify.

Perhaps English is not your first language?

No, not expand or clarify - just to provide another example for liberal Kos of a (small) country for them to pick on for being an Evil Big Brother Government with Bad Intent.   Funny you attack the poster and not the content - oh but that's right, it was beyond your comprehension. Maybe if you had to read some of the Kos article to understand. Oh, and feel free to correct my spelling and grammer for me - I could use a good secretary like you.
No, not expand or clarify -

Ok..... then you say

just to provide another example

Normally people provide another example to expand/clarify a point.    

Funny you attack the poster and not the content

If I was attacking the poster I'd use language that is considered banned in polite society, and state that your upbrinning involved you being dropped on your head.  

oh but that's right, it was beyond your comprehension.

Really?   I wonder how many other TODers find your posts 'hard to follow'?  

Oh, and feel free to correct my spelling and grammer for me - I could use a good secretary like you.

I do not play that game of spelling/grammer checker.   Others like playing spell/grammer checker in an attempt to discredit the ideas of others, but such is a petty tactic.

I'm asking for you to be more clear with your writing.  In case you actually have a good idea worth examining.   Things like the below are noise.  

Here you admit to not using your meds
http://www.theoildrum.com/story/2006/3/8/174150/3540#93

Here you talk about 'mother' (in the context of 'mother earth')
http://www.theoildrum.com/story/2006/3/8/153250/8238#93

And here you are writing like you are asking premission of 'mother' to 'talk'

Oh oh Astro, looks like I gots under some little flocker's feathers.  How cute.  I provide and example of a justifiable situation which could also be claimed to be some sinister Evil Corp/Gov. plot - somethinig directly related to the SLANT of the article the good Professor posted.  Something easily understood by any intelligent person who actually read the article but even after a second try you still failed to make that simple connection.

Dropped on my head... ah, hmm, yes, speaking ofchildish and banal...

You should be careful saying you and "other tods" can't understand my post.  You may be demonstrating your very own ignorance in public - since I've had several discusions with others who clearly did understand my writin' as well as the content (wow! huh?).   And like I said, feel free to scroll on if you lack comprehension.

Funny, you whimper about not being able to understand my posts yet you seem to be able to read some of them - if not understand them.  Impressive how you have taken the time to hunt down those post (or did you bookmark them).  You're not a stalker-type are you lil' charlie?  LOL.  I've become a very important person in your life perhaps?
 

Perhaps TOD needs an ignore button, next to the poster's name.   I would certainly use it, and most likely, have it used on me.

How about it ?

I don't know, I wasn't listening.
I agree with paradox.  Ingore might be hard to instal on this board or not - I know not the techs.

But it would make it easier not to step on eachother's cerebral cortexes (some peoplez are VERY sensitive...).

And that way we waste less bandwidth on people with egos trying to measure the size of their penis in public.

The view in 2002 is it would break moderation.   The moderation system is not in play here.

BUT

Any changes would have to be tracked and while hosting and providing uptime/access is a labor of love, I doubt there is THAT much love.    

At this time it is simpler to just remember who's off their meds and ignore 'em by yourself.
