The Tea Party

I have no way to prove you would vote for Mitt; so that would be a meaningless wager with a fellow named Shyster. How about if I find 3 you leave ECCIE ? Originally Posted by Whirlaway

What am I to do? One right wingnut wants me gone. Another wants me to stay to torture me. Could you prissy little fucktoys of corporations get together on this issue? Originally Posted by ShysterJon

Nice attempt to change the bet; this isn't about my multiple typos/grammar/spelling mistakes, it is about yours !

I guess you don't want to man up with your wager.

How about if you find three significant grammatical errors in my posts by midnight Tues. 5-29-12, then I'm outta here for one month. You don't, you're outta here for a month.

Again, it's 'you're' (the contraction of 'you' and 'are'), not 'your' (a possessive pronoun), Einstein.

I wonder how much of that is because of the lies spread by the democrats and the media about what the objectives of the Tea Party are.

Sounded a little racist at first glance, but okay, fair enough.

Your the one boasting about being Mr. Perfect and not making mistakes; so either man up or not. It doesn't make any difference to me.

You most certainly changed the original bet; now including me into your wager.......another shyster lawyer ploy.

Some lawyers may know the Constitution, but ShitserJon is not one of them.

Hey, I'm glad you don't participate in insults. I like how you have kept the conversation on a high plane.

Are you kidding? Hell No! You guys somehow suckered ShysterJon into a political thread, this is entertainment at its finest! I love it!

I do have a question though. Since we see where SJ stands politically and we're all well aware of where TTH stands, are attorneys as a group more inclined to lean to the lib side of the game? Originally Posted by Chica Chaser

Chica, you're right. This guy is hysterical! And lawyers by and large are very liberal.

Can't blame me for trying.

I think it's a 50/50 split. The lawyers I use to launder money and take from others are all libs, the lawyers I use to create businesses and do my taxes are conservatives...Go figure...LOL Originally Posted by nwarounder

I think you may be on to something right there

No, I think the opposite is true. The legal profession is a VERY conservative profession. Contrary to what people see on TV or in movies, maybe 90% of lawyers never set foot in a courtroom. Most work in big firms drafting lengthy documents and other boring, unimaginative tasks suitable for the conservative mind. (On the other hand, I'd estimate that 90% of artists, writers, and musicians are liberal because, in contrast to conservatives, they have imaginations.)

But there obviously are liberal lawyers, especially among litigators, like me (from the criminal side, mostly) and TTH (from the civil side) because being a good litigator requires imagination.

Of course, Chica, you've now left me open to attack by the right wingnuts. Tea fartiers HATE lawyers because we actually know the Constitution, rather than spewing opinions on the Constitution out of our asses like the flatheads do.

Friend, you find three significant grammatical errors among any of my 1500-odd posts and I'll vote for Mitt the Twit. You won't find three errors, but hopefully you'll gain an education by reading my posts. Originally Posted by ShysterJon

Its a pretty fun show most of the time.

Ok I made it to page 6 and the only thing I can add of any value is, http://freedomworks.com

It's been a good journey there for me. Mostly networking and helping others has been my experience with them.

Jon, wow sweet Jesus in hooker heaven you took on the entire sand box.

Can't wait to see you at faire and laugh at each other. I still have your birthday present.

Standing for the Constitution, Fundamental Supporter. mtnman.

I think that you're the one asserting the tea farty is diverse. So give us a poll or something showing the tea farty is made up of a diverse group of different races, religions, political preferences, sexual orientations, and genders. Originally Posted by ShysterJon

Here is the conundrum, Shitstirrer Jon, you call yourself a smart lawyer @ http://www.eccie.net/showpost.php?p=...&postcount=107, but then you toss out an fallacious absolute like “90% of Tea Partiers are white men” @ http://www.eccie.net/showpost.php?p=...0&postcount=42. You then go further and state that the Tea Party does not reflect minority opinions @ http://www.eccie.net/showpost.php?p=...&postcount=109.

At post # 69 http://www.eccie.net/showpost.php?p=...3&postcount=69 you unwisely (some would say 'stupidly') cite Wiki as a source, Shitstirrer Jon. A truly ‘smart lawyer’, Shitstirrer Jon, would have read the Wiki article first to make sure it supported his shit-stirrer POV.

So, as pointed out @ http://www.eccie.net/showpost.php?p=...0&postcount=86 you evidently didn’t read the Wiki article first because it contradicts several of your statements above; hence, it also contradicts your notion of yourself being a ‘smart lawyer’, Shitstirrer Jon.
