Air conditioning? Are you people serious – you want something as frivolous as air conditioning when our planet is in imminent danger of spontaneously combusting because of human activity?

Of course, our planet could actually be cooling towards another ice age – there is a consensus that something is happening just like some climate things happened for…oh…four billion years or so. In which case, you folks won’t be whining about air conditioning.

I think I’m missing something… A song about receiving poor service from a private corporation and the anger you feel when you can’t do anything about that poor service like choose to purchase your goods/services ect… from a different corporation because the BIG GOVERNMENT stepped in and regulated the whole industry and told you who you can and cannot get your electricity from… is a leftist song?

I thought protesting BIG GOVERNMENT was a conservative thing to do.

I guess this website is dedicated to the betterment of BIG CORPORATIONS now and not conservative ideals or thinking.

Let’s see.. guy on the right is an export from Portland OR.

As is the woman who posted the video. And the one in the middle.

Woman on the right works for NOAA & is out of Syracuse (the name bammy couldn’t spell right on a bet).

I’d have to say your suppositions are probably on target, if not near the bulls-eye, BFH.

BFH,

How do you know they are “Hipster Doofi Potomac residents, who would normally be protesting the electric company for ‘killing the planet with their fossil fuel consumption’”? Or, did you make it up because that’s what makes your corp sponsors happy?

The user that posted that video has no other content to view to draw any conclusions. As far as I know their protest song is about how BIG GOVERNMENT is, as usual, doing the bidding of BIG CORP AMERICA and the people are the ones getting the shaft.

Look… I can use curse words too. Does it make me sound smarter?

Personally, my take away on the video was their need to use excessive vulgar language to make their point.

The discourse in today’s youth has gotten so course and so vulgar, it’s disheartening. While these three are older than teenagers, it is appalling to here the cussing that comprises normal conversation among kids as young as fourth or fifth grade – especially girls.

Actually, I find it downright laughable that those useful idiots are sitting there, miserable and hot, and complaining through a horribly played song.

THAT would be a popular video.

BFH,

So that all the readers here will understand your comment… I was facing the possibility of lung cancer and in a pretty advanced stage but the look of the CT scan in late December a few years back. At the same time my company had recently been purchased and the life insurance carrier was changing. The new carrier would not touch me, the old policy expired on 12/31 and if I had had cancer my probably of survival past about 6 months was grim. Yeah… I gave some consideration to wrecking the car so my family would be well off. Luckily I’m cancer free and I have life insurance again. This time I purchased it outside of my employer to mitigate the risk of a repeat of that episode. I suggest everyone follow me in that action and purchase your life insurance while you’re as young as possible through an outside vendor.

On the “hypocrisy”, I guess I have to spell things out for you. I wasn’t actually commenting on your use of a curse word… There’s a masked curse word in my alias for crying out loud. I WAS commenting on your inability to keep on subject whilst disagreeing. It seems you lack the cognitive ability to argue a point without browbeating your opponent personally. Perhaps you could stick to your point… justify or offer evidence as to why your point is better and try to convince the reader to side with your point… rather than acting like a 12-year-old school bully and going for the “if you’re louder and more vulgar you win!!!!” approach. There… you’ve drawn me in and now I’m attacking you personally. Bravo Mr. Fur Hat. You’ve brought me down to your level.

@RosalindJ,

I look forward to the links I’m sure you’ll post soon since you “know how to do some web searching” showing the other content the three in the video have out there for our consumption. If I”m wrong about what I took from their video I’ll gladly admit it and their profession of love for Karl Marx via myspace or something will certainly be good enough proof for me.

Well, those talentless dweebs convinced me. I’m going to buy a 12 kw diesel generator.

You made your point, now let it go.

BTW, I will say I’m glad you’re cancer free, as a fellow human being, if even a liberal.

@RosalindJ,

I’m working right now so I don’t have time to try and hunt down who these people are. You made it sound as if you’d found something so I figured you’d post it and then we could all have a laugh about how wrong my interpretation of their music was. Unless you meant something else when you posted;

“Unless you know how to do some web searching..”

after quoting me saying…
“The user that posted that video has no other content to view to draw any conclusions.”

@$#@_Corp_America! Your fired. I’m done telling you to stop doing this crap on my time. Come get your check.

@Death_By_Farts,

He’s already tried to block me several times. I keep changing my alias. Besides do you really want to view comments in an echo chamber? Someone has to dissent to make it a worthwhile read.

Thanks for the well wishes!

BTW, I’m not a liberal. At least not by their standards. Heading to the gun range to shoot my AK et. al. after church on Sundays somehow disqualifies me from “liberalism” I guess… However, I’m not very happy with what’s become of the political debate in this country which is I suppose why I’m on here being a thorn in the side of those who post inflammatory rhetoric and don’t back it up with fact. If anyone wants to call out our politicians for something real that they actually have proof of… I’m all for getting on the band wagon to kick the bum out of office… whichever party… they’re both corrupt and in the pocket of the same group anyway. However, I refuse to stick with the ideology of one side or the other and “find fault” with those on the other side simply to support my presumptions about them.

“I never submitted the whole system of my opinions to the creed of any party of men whatever, in religion, in philosophy, in politics, or in anything else, where I was capable of thinking for myself. Such an addiction is the last degradation of a free and moral agent. If I could not go to heaven but with a party, I would not go there at all.” – Thomas Jefferson

Listen, Schmuck, you were the one who couldn’t follow the thread.

My post states that these idiots are most likely libstains who support Obama and believe in AGW, that fossil fuels are killing the planet, but as soon as they are inconvenienced by a storm that knocks out power they write a song about how they want their air conditioning right now.

You chime in with your one-note symphony, including the passive aggressive “I must be missing something”, about BIG CORPORATIONS and “what’s wrong with protesting bad service when it’s a monopoly” bleat bleat bleat, MISSING THE POINT OF THE POST ENTIRELY.

Yet, you stand on “high ground,” being temporarily lowered to my level.

Take the advice of others. You can’t win here. You know why?
Because you’re not sharp and I “pick on” people who are WRONG.

And I’m really sick and tired of morons like you who hide behind the “you cursed, therefore you have said nothing cogent, defense.”

I’m cursing at you WHILE making my points. If you choose to focus on the part where I call you an asshole, well then, you’re an asshole.

And before any other asshole thinks I’m attacking this poor soul out of nowhere, I’m not.
I see everything that goes on on this site.
This is not his first thread.
He’s an Obama apologist and sympathizer cloaked in some sort of neo-populist bone throwing to get you off his scent.

PEPCO isn’t a “private corporation” it is a publicly traded utility.

BFH,

That is a lot of words to not say anything more than “He loves Obama and WE HATE Obama so let’s all HATE HIM and everything he says!!!”

It’s cool. I get it. You like the echo chamber as is and don’t want to hear anyone else’s opinion of things unless it’s a “Rah Rah!” cheer for what you’ve said. I’m betting you peaked in high school back when a couple of lackeys followed you around and laughed at all your jokes and whenever you pushed a guy in a locker and this is as close as you can get to that same high. I’ve decided to be done with computer fun for the day anyhow. it’s time to kick my feet up in front of the tube and drink a beer.

Have a great night all!

Obviously none of these dumb-asses have worked three consecutive days before, during and after a hurricane, in sub-zero temperatures, driving rain or a blinding snow storm in order to restore utilities to their customers. I have. Many times all day and all night. Most times without so much as a thank you from anyone. Until they have they need to shut the fuck up about it.

The best part of the video is that IT ENDED!! (WHOO!!)

The best part about “@$#@_Corp_America!” is that they will eventually go away – one way or the other. Trolls do not usually last long here. And, “@$#@_Corp_America!”, if you had been reading this site for some time you will realize that if you want to REMAIN anonymous, it’s best that you LEAVE NOW. BFH, and other posters here, have tracked down trolls and “outed” their identities. So, piss everyone off and accept the consequences.

Awwww. What are the friggin odds that @^@^@^ for Brains would cut out now, right after I put up the rebuttal post to his challenge about naming JUST ONE OBAMA POLICY that has negatively impacted anyone directly?

What are the odds that he’d be cracking a beer and watching TV with his feet up when his last comment was that he couldn’t answer questions because he was at work?

Just what are the odds?

Dammit, he cock-blocked my high. Something I haven’t had since I was pushing people into lockers in high school.

So three able-bodied people are angry that following a massive storm, where millions lost electricity, that they’re still without power. Uh, maybe PEPCO, who probably has people working around the clock, had to prioritize (places like hospitals, nursing homes, etc.). Heck, I bet there are a few Congresscritters who were raising holy hell to get their power back on ASAP, the little people be damned. This is why you should be prepared. And mobile (like go somewhere where there IS power).

@Herr Döktor

What exactly should I be afraid of if I’m “outed”? I’ve disagreed with a few points of view AND, I’ve insulted a single individual who had clearly insulted me many times over prior to my insulting assessment of his/her personality came to bare. Is my “outing” a threat of physical violence? Are you suggesting that people will come to my home, my place of business? Should I be concerned for the wellbeing of myself, my wife, my children? All because I choose a different point of view than what is expressed here by the majority? Historically the kind of hysteria that stems from words into violence leads to holocausts. I AM afraid… but not of being “outed” whatever that means exactly but of the very idea that you think it’s ok threaten me regardless of how vague a threat you posed over simply speaking my mind in a public forum. WHAT KIND OF AMERICAN ARE YOU?!?!?! I suppose we can surmise the answer from your spelling of “Doctor” if we must.

@BFH,
Please accept my apologies but I no longer have the thread I was posting on earlier in the week in my history. Could you post a link so I can read your “rebuttal post to (my) challenge about naming JUST ONE OBAMA POLICY that has negatively impacted anyone directly”?

MN, I went a round with this person before, he poses a question, you answer it, he keeps asking the question. I’m thinking he’s not big on logic. It’s somewhat frustrating sparring with it on line, cause you can’t reach out and smack his ass when he starts his end around. Neither one of us, or no one here needs the frustration of arguing with someone that’s not really interested in hearing and acknowledging your point.
But it is important to realize liberal, progressives want from us. At very least they want your money, at the not so extreme they want your freedom. Sooner or later things are going to hit critical mass.

+3

Yeh it’s like the grade school retort, “I know you are but what am I” bullshit.
And yes I wish I could reach through the screen and slam his face on his desk.

+3

Exactly, and his next reply will include mention of the innuendo of physical threats being made against him. What he fails to see is that progressives desire to change our country in a fashion nobody here want to see. My advise, which I told him before, move to a country that already has the system in place that you desire. But leave my fucking country alone.

Oh yeah, I forgot, when he leaves if he would please take his unemployed fearless leader with him I would chip in for the plane ticket.

Oh that was no innuendo.

Still no link to the rebuttal? Darn.

MN, and Brad… the only think missing from your remarks is the Beavis and Butt-Head laughter.

At this point I don’t expect anyone to read the top of this mess to see what I originally said so I’ll repost.

I said;
“As far as know their protest song is about how BIG GOVERNMENT is, as usual, doing the bidding of BIG CORP AMERICA and the people are the ones getting the shaft.” In reference to how utilities are in fact lightly regulated monopolies over the geographical area’s that they server and consumers lack choice.

That’s what I took from the song… I’ve since been attacked by the “regular” crowd on pretty much every level because I don’t agree with what BFH intended the post to convey. BFH drew his conclusions of who the singers are and what they probably believe from… well, I don’t know since there doesn’t seen to be anything else online to suggest that these people are hippies or commies or whatever else was said about them.

@@#%@^@@^ the Corporations,

You said Big Fur hat “Tried to block me several times”. You also said you have had to change you screen name several times. Care to share what your previous names are and how you manipulate you IP address to trick his efforts?

Hi Menderman,

There two different user names in this post. They’re basically the same but with a couple of characters difference so I’d stop getting the “you’re posting too fast” deal. That’s the only thing I’ve done. I don’t actually know what users I’ve used since I just randomly change it up whenever I get that message or I’d provide a list. That’s part of the reason I can’t find the rebuttal that BFH says he wrote on that other string.

I’ll assume that I’ll be blocked from now on by IP and since I don’t care enough about this to keep changing mine up by releasing it and getting a new one every time I want to post or leasing/borrowing vm space, or using dial up or going to a free hotspot or hopping on an unsecured wifi ect… you won’t hear from me anymore.

I do think it’s sad though. My opinion initially got a couple of likes which means that some of the people who read this site but don’t necessarily post are not as quick to judge and throw out the opinions of anyone who’s not frothing at the mouth waiting to pounce on anything that could be construed as “liberal”. Anyhow, I guess they won’t get to read any dissenting opinion here no matter how rational and anti-BIG GOVERNMENT they happen to be.
