Ah! Now I have absolute proof. Are you trying to scare some members off because they are making mince meat out of your posts?
Wow, an interesting topic but it went off the tracks so quickly. I am quite shocked! Appalled even! Even the moderator can't seem to get it back on track. Well, let me take a stab at the original poster's question and see if it helps put this train back on track...No, I do not think Obama would have elected President under a meritocracy.
Well, I hope your job at the college isn't Statistician or Mathematician. I, for one, wouldn't say that David is one of the "least liked members of this forum". Quite to the contrary. Do you really want to use "Likes Received" as an indicator of likeability on this forum? View attachment 349 View attachment 350
Well apparently YOU like him since you spent your entire Tuesday clicking the "Like" button almost 700 times for him. It might prove that you LIKE him but that was never in doubt. When I see more than YOU as the one that likes him, and rather than all the likes coming in one day, I might be convinced that my math skills should be questioned but, all I can question at this point is the lengths you would go to and the time you spent to try and make a false point out of pure desperation. Really, really sad that you'd spend your time doing something this meaningless but this is the best example of desperate Right-winger mentality where being perceived as being right is more important than the truth. Too bad you can’t spend today liking your own posts. I’m sure that you would if you could. You are just unbelievably sad and morally vacant. In other words, you’re a Right-winger. Any respect I may have had for your opinions is gone. I am glad that I could force you to waste your time though.
Statistics don't lie. You've said so yourself. Your assertion, which you attempted to point out, was that David was one of the "least liked members of the forum" based on his "Likes" received. That is so petty it's almost beyond belief. Personally, I couldn't care less how many "Likes" I receive; it's absolutely meaningless to me, but YOU certainly give them some weight. Do you have an ego to stroke, or what? So, there are your statistics staring you in the face. In black and white. Proof that David is one of the "most liked members of the forum" (at least according to the criteria you set). And, yes, your math skills should be questioned as I've pointed out in previous posts. Mathematics is definitely not your forte.
Sorry, but I'm not going to bicker back and forth with you. I don't have to "prove" you a liar. Anyone can see that all of the likes david received are yours. I know you believe yourself clever. You really just come off as someone who wasted a lot of time in a desperate attempt to propagate a lie. You are a typical Right-winger because the truth isn't as important to you as being perceived as being right. You have a piss-poor set of morals which you seem to take pride in for some reason. Good for you but all you really have won is less respect from anyone here that doesn't share your convenient morals. I don't speak for others but you'd have to be pretty south of a moron to believe anything you have to say from this point on given your behavior here. I used to think you were slightly more honest than rlm and david but I see that belief was misguided. I will now drop this conversation and pretty much any conversation with you because what would be the point? The truth has no value in your reality. It's people like you that keep the member population of Partisan Lines to a minimum. Nice job.
This childish outburst is uncalled for! Personal attacks, unfounded accusations, far left hypebole? If this type of behavior is condoned by the forum & allowed to continue there won't be anyone left to debate.
Girls, girls. Get control of yourselves. Republicans are brave men until someone gets in their face with the truth. Then they squeal like Ned Beatty in 'Deliverance.' So go on. Everybody respects squealers, you cut such a handsome figure. Obama's going to be brought back as the Republicans candidates are as big a bunch of bums as their followers and you guys can go back to your busy schedule . (Hissy fit)
The fact that the above post qualifies for a 'Like' from someone tells you all you need to know about the 'Like' System here.
You seem to have a bit of pep in your step lately, get a lower tax-rate or something? As for followers, please... if tomc and I appear to "follow" Moen what do you think that makes coin and rlm, your puppies? No, it doesn't. Each of us has our own beliefs and lean either Republican or Democratic. But if it means that much to you to believe otherwise go ahead, it's not the first time you've been mistaken about something, and at least it's not anywhere near as harmful to anyone as your political beliefs are.
Just to further that thought along... do you think anyone could be? I honestly can't think of anyone when factoring in political beliefs.
