AnumbingAss, Please go look somewhere else for your daily pounding...
Go take your blabbering pills.
Bill, I'm getting the vibe from AnAsshole kind of like from here:

Same delivery, different communist (Banker) boss?
I think I had a fair dose of them while interacting with US citizens, witnessing their enthusiasm to support and laudate the lunatic comment that US citizen sportsman did.
Please finish every statement with "Japanese American dog!" Thank you!
I realized quite a while back that in some fields, it is useless to compete with US citizens. With their bigger than biggest is not big enough, I'd always come short in any attempt to mimick them.
So I prefer to let racism where it is originated, where it thrives: US citizenism and to the people who adopt US citizenism, US citizens.
Ana: seriously, time for an investigation:
So you have been programmed to avoid competition? So your uses are not congruent with AMCITS? I'd say that severely limits your opportunities. As opposed to the other sides of opportunity--in all directions. We surely wish to know those fields, if for no other reason than to know your limitations.
With your programming flaws in syntax and your obvious Freudian inadequacies, I'll not attempt to embellish your obvious statement and conclusion.
Cone? Some unknown African tribal leader? Who? Who invented the so-called "racism" that you cite?

{One wonders about the "I" cited in this post. What is "I"?}
Hey AnA,
I think you have something worth saying, but honestly, how many can get past the smell of bile in the bitterness of your statements? You come across as someone trapped in your circumstances, who feels he can do nothing but cry about ugly Americans.
You know, you didn't invent the idea and you won't be the last to talk about it. What might help is a sense of history, and some experience with a variety of people. Practically every country on earth has been invaded or changed hands in war. It is a testimony to human greed and lust for power. Yes, the current empire is sickening, but you will find good and bad qualities all over. I would be more interested in hearing your experiences (as you mentioned a while back about your workplace) than this monotonous whine that is no news to most who read ZH. If you need to assuage your bitterness, do a little reading about Pompey the Great from Rome. Roman citizens had a big shock once Pompey was done with them. There is a good thought piece on the subject in the NYT from around 2006. But again, why spread your bile here?
Did you know that Germans had severe prejudices against fellow Germans depending on whether they were from the north, middle or south of Germany? In the middle ages? I get it. You hate the US and think it is the cause of all bad things. I was just using a little humor to mock you. Nothing against Chinese people, just bitter angry jealous people like you.
obama is a fucking sieve.
He is a US citizen.
A lot of people don't think so..... and it is a bit murky. Sort of like his missing college transcripts.
I thought Linda Green sorted all of that out.
YOU GO TIM! Now, if I could just get the reall scoop on who beat the shit out of John Kerry. Enquiring Minds Want To Know,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
... er ... he was playing 'ockey?
--- er --- he had another face-lift?
~~~ Mama T. caught him with the chambermaid? N'est ce pas?

{or your vote here, but remember how DSK was a bad, bad, bad boy until the Chicago Short-Gray-Hair Cruella came on board, the IMF was just fine, and ou la la, DSK is no longer under charges!}

One other thougth for our sports franchise heroes.
Who has been footing the bills for the arenas etc in these cities, I thin you need to ask the taxpayers in Boston how they like paying for someone elses free lunch,
So Mr. heroe who paid for the arena you make your money in?
Superb!
We will crush Sauron and his lackey Wizards, Ben, Timmah, and the rest!
"My preshussssssss NDAA" McCain
"My, what a wonderful arrangement of gardenias" Miss Lindsay G.
"Where's the Mosque?" MaoBama. "Now that Sandusky is busted, I need a new source of meat."
please stop paint him as hero.
before that lets Mr Thomas announce who he voted for last time(s) ?
no matter how bad Mr Obama is/was/will be , 2d term of Bush Jr is most despicable act of voting in USA history... I always thought no way it was going to happen . I was so wrong...
it just showed how dumb and stupid my fellow americans became..
alx
You mean Amerika would have been better off if those stupid Amerikans had voted for Kerry?
At least W didn't promise the American people that he wasn't a scum bag. And he took Darth Vader on as his running mate. In certain respects he was on the up and up. His campaign was: "Me and you little consumers are both dumb scumbags, so you might as well vote for me since we'se peas in a pod." Everyone with three firing synapses knew where W and Darth Cheney were coming from. You got what you paid for. O'bumma lied about everything from the get go - not just 9/11 and WMD. OTOH O'bumma hasn't run any serious false flags ...............yet.
It's not the American people's fault if Newt Gingrich becomes President Gingrich...and tho I am not a supporter in the least he will kick Obama's ass in the general.
Newt will take a dive and throw the election to MaoBama.
Ron Paul is the only man standing defending the Constitution.
Weird, isn't it, how the polls you find online show a huge % for RP, but, suddenly, after the primary results are in, he drops to 10%.
Until we go back to paper, physical ballots, with members of every party present to count them and require ID, the election process in Amerika is null and void, rigged and raped.
In SC, over 100 dead people "voted" for Newt.
Don't confuse online "polls" w election results. Most of the sheeple aren't online. They watch television, and vote accordingly. In fact, Republicrat and Democan election chicanery just about balances out. Scum win because idiots vote.
Oh, but it is. It's completely your fault what you get. In fact, you get what you deserve. You got King George, Obomba, and next who knows, Newt "once it rains gonna bail you out like the capt of the costa concordia" Gingrich? Yes, he'll beat Obomba's ass, and then he'll deliver his own to the banks, same as Obomba...
The other side to this so called heroe? How did the people get the money to pay for the tickets or cable bill to watch this overpaid deuche bag? Pro athletes are people they cut the best deal for themselves just like everybody else.
I agree with voicing your opinion, but to discount the fact the markets have risen 60% since Obama was president, and the armed forces took out Obama Bin Laden while this self righteous deuche bag grand stands I have no respect for him.
I have bleed on the sports field and did it as an amateur, this deutche bag is one play away from being on the bread line. How much did he pay in taxes, another millionaire calling all the have nots swine. that is my take away on this snub.
Maybe he should vote for his Boston buddy Rummey?
and the armed forces took out Obama Bin Laden
That's funny. Obama Bin Laden.
to quote my senior senator: "Would that it were, would that it were ..."
- Ned
this deutche bag
Are you somehow suggesting, in your inimitable way, that Thomas is German?!
Lots of LOLZ for catching that. I just grimaced in consternation when I saw it. My forefathers would have a thing to say to him.
You just really don't get it do ya? Pity....
LoL.
Right, because Tim Thomas didn't languish in the minors and amateur leagues for TWELVE years before he got his shot, well into his thirties? You tool. You didn't make it, he did, in the way he did it, THAT is Perseverance. Imagine the amount of people that told him (his coaches) to stop playing when he was 30, 31 even 32 years old? This guy puts his money where his mouth is, not to mention the huge amount of charity work he does with Veterans, do you? Enjoy sitting with your buddies talking about how awesome you were and "what could have been". Tim Thomas did it, the fucking hard way, and no one can take that from him.
"But to discount the fact that the markets have risen 60% since Obama was president, and the armed forces took out Bin Ladin..." Exhibit A: a working class dog who believes that markets propped with funny money and manipulated by HFT computers with market volume collapsing faster than a black hole, and unemployment numbers skewed to ignore everyone who gives up looking for work, is a sign of market health. You must have been in Econ 101 at Columbia with Mr. Sotero. Please stand by to receive your Nobel Peace Prize for your ground-breaking work in economics. Exhibit B: Your award for the "Bin Laden" remark comes the day his "body" washes up on shore anywhere on the eastern seaboard.
"markets" cool stat, thanks.
This guy ('working class' my ass) is a paid poster, and a poor one at that. Hope they refuse to pay him for his ineffective dribble. Dude, you are selling out humanity for a few dollars! Think about outing who you are working for, that is the only honorable thing left for you now. That is your only path to redemption.
And HITMAN56 is a paid Government Provocateur. The trolls like to service each other on the threads.
Hey HITMAN, what happened to the comments on the Timmay thread awhile back?
GREAT!
Nice graphic mash up with Lady Liberty wallpaper. I get the message instantly.
Awesome WB7!
"Wicked good" as we say in Bawston.
As a long time Bruins (and everything New England) fan...this is a prouder day than my Patriots making the big show...and I truly mean that!
People may be waking up to the madness of our current times!
A fitting tribute, WB7
DaddyO
"Madness" is far to kind of a description. This place is royally fucked up beyond recognition.
Very well done WB7, TT and as always ZH. Thank you all.
27 games in a row during the playoffs. Yet this shows true stones. - Ned
Good man. Both of you.
well deserved thanks will. a very brave man..he will be made to pay never doubt it.
go TT and WB7.......... do what's right....

Yes ... A superbly eloquent statement by this athlete in America, and very good of Mr Banzai to honour him.
A cheer for the American anti-fascist revolutionaries of our 21st century.
Godspeed to them, and may God grant them the victory they deserve.
Sarcasm at its best.
50% cent / 50% turing test
ya, I've been wondering about that "turing-test" thingie. - Ned
