Re: Pi**ing Match Thread for those, who would rather argue than stay on topic

Who cares where somebody gets their ticket? If one person gets the comps then somebody who doesn't get them has to pay. It's like a silly p*ssi*ng match. I don't care, and I bet most people don't care. But I know this thread is designed for this purpose.

Re: Pi**ing Match Thread for those, who would rather argue than stay on topic

yes, I meant beliefs, but obviously your wisdom allowed you to decipher what I meant. So what if Bachman feels that she has a close relationship with G-d, isn't that the goal of Christianity? If she believes that she hears Him on a regular basis, than so what. At least he isn't telling her to blow up a plane or innocent people. To each his own. Again, if Obama can have Wright as his mentor for 20 years, than Bachman can have a close relationship with G-d. Better to have G-d as your mentor than Wright.

I don't want someone in the Oval Office that even potentially makes major decisions to guide our country based on what God allegedly instructs her to do. That's so what. I would never cast a vote for anyone who makes such claims. You can condemn my thought process all you like. You seem to enjoy doing that with those who do not share your political beliefs. But this is America and I'm going to reach my own conclusions by any means I feel appropriate. I don't care about the religious beliefs of anyone campaigning for the Presidency. I do care when / if those beliefs affect any decision making process involved with setting any policies of our government. Michele Bachmann is "dangerous" in that respect IMO. I'm not too worried about her actually getting elected. Unfortunately for her I think, not enough people that stupid in the USA to make that happen. I sure hope that's true.

Thanks, by the way, for my english lesson; could have used it last week when I was writing my final paper…got an A-, but I am sure with your amazing skills, I would have been able to pull out an A

Thanks, by the way, for your sincere expression of appreciation.

Only two in the forum who have repeatedly expressed great concern for the matter. I think you're right about the corresponding level of concern for all normal people...uh...I mean others.

You know what I like to say..."If Obama is the answer ... it's probably a stupid question."

Your in good company. I can count on one hand the number of tickets I paid for to women's college hockey games over the past 13 years. Same goes with men's college hockey. Some were comped because I was related to a player on the ice. Some where comped because I was friends with a player on the ice. Others were comped because I was friends with a friend of player on the ice. To fabricate a problem with someone receiving comped tickets, just seems a little silly and petty.

A little.

Always appreciate your input Matt. Now if I can man up and reverse the state of Minnesota's financial woes I obviously caused...it would be good.

Your posts and general attitude within the forum give all a very clear indication of your character. Your complete lack thereof actually.

Have you and your faithful servant figured it out yet?

I can appreciate your point of view and of course you are going to come to your own conclusions, I wouldn't expect differently. I was under the impression we were having a debate, sorry if I made you feel otherwise.

For the record, at this time, I am not interested in Bachman as president either. I was simply pointing out that there are two edges to this sword you wield with regards to condemning someone who has a strong belief in their religion and your fear of their possible chance of becoming leader of our country. If I am not mistaken, those same fears were voiced when Kennedy ran for office, people were afraid of his Catholic faith and how he might use his faith to guide his decisions in office. Obviously, people are able to lead a religious personal life and at the same time, hold public office without enforcing their personal religion on the masses. For you to assume that Bachman or any other candidate is unable to conduct themselves professionally in office, IMO, is a contradiction of your views of Obama. He has been able to govern the country without openly imposing the beliefs that were preached by his mentor for all of those years he attended his church, then surely you can see that others are able to do the same thing….Unless you really did buy into his campaign proclamation that "A LIGHT WILL SHINE THROUGH THAT WINDOW, A BEAM OF LIGHT WILL COME DOWN UPON YOU, YOU WILL EXPERIENCE AN EPIPHANY ... AND YOU WILL SUDDENLY REALIZE THAT YOU MUST GO TO THE POLLS AND VOTE FOR OBAMA" - BARACK OBAMA ,

Yea, you're right, it's scary when someone thinks they hear G-d talking to them, or worse yet, that they are the ONE that G-d has sent to save the country and the world

I don't think you know Bachmann very well...or are as familiar with her as someone who has lived in the district she represents for 53 plus years...though that's quite a bit longer than she's been around. You don't like Obama but a comparison between him and Michele Bachmann is ludicrous. She's not particularly intelligent...to put it diplomatically as I can. A comparison between her and Obama in that regard is laughable. I make no assumptions regarding Bachmann. Don't have to as I'm very familiar with how she conducts herself professionally in her capacity as an elected official, which is to say it is my opinion that she is not capable of conducting herself in the professional manner we have to expect from a potential presidential candidate. I know others are capable of that. But to imply because some are, they all are? Nope...don't buy that one. I would say all the other 2012 hopefuls are quite professional. I don't feel that's the case with Bachmann. I've heard her talk too much to believe that anymore.

Your quote of Obama above...which I believe you've alluded two a few times in the past. To me that sounds like pretty typical campaign jargon, spin...salesmanship, self marketing sound bite the likes of which you get from everyone campaigning for office. The impression I get is that you think Obama actually was completely serious and truly believed what he said...literally. Did he have a smile on his face when he said it? That's one place where we part ways. I'm convinced Michele truly believes God talks to her and gives her personal guidance...which is a little beyond simply living according to your religious beliefs. I was raised in a devoutly religious environment myself. Same denomination as Michele I believe. If God is talking to her...God has changed since the days of my former daily religion classes. If one were to judge by her political actions. There's another segment of society that in complete seriousness believes God talks to them personally. They usually murder several people before being apprehended. Now you're probably going to be upset with that analogy. I don't think Michele is of the serial killer variety, but I think it's completely plausible if in a position of power she's capable of making foolish decisions and even just public comments that could be very detrimental to our country...both internally and in foreign relations, "aided" by her very close, personal relationship with her God. Have you seen the "I Don't Judge" video of hers? Not really a level of professionalism I expect from the head honcho. Nor do I want a President who sits there and out and out lies on national television when confronted with her own previous idiotic statements. Her current campaigning tactics and behavior while in office have also been extremely unprofessional IMO. I can't assume that would suddenly change if she was elected.

Now you know how I feel about Bachmann, the GOP candidate I'm most familiar with, and why I feel that way. That'll probably be enough about Michele Bachmann and her spiritual guidance eh?

Re: Pi**ing Match Thread for those, who would rather argue than stay on topic

Your "belief" is incorrect. Minnesota is not presently shut down. Ever try talking about something you actually know something about? Or isn't there any such topic?

Like I said...I don't pay much attention to it. I did check though and I see everything is back up any running after being shut down for nearly 3 weeks in July!

Yup, clear sailing now...I wouldn't worry about a thing...

You don't pay much attention to a lot of things and are uninformed on many others...never stops you from flappin' your lips and blowing hot air.

Don't pretend you know something about Minnesota's budget. You don't. Do us a favor and spare us more of your uninformed juvenile commentary. You don't have a voice in any of Minnesota's financial matters. Why are so many elementary concepts so difficult for you?

Question for you CHG, and to a lesser extent 5 4, to gain a broader knowledge base of this topic. If there was a way for you to get free tickets to ever hockey game for a season or more, men's, women's, college, pro, etc., you would not take it? Even if the people giving them to you were insistent on you taking them?

The short answer is no. You don't know all the facts.

Well why don't you fill me in on the facts and give the long answer in your next post. It would be much obliged.

If you'd been following along since the beginning...................Like I said in a previous post, it's too much work to dig it all up; and it may be true that the goof had some of it taken out. It's lightly scratching the surface with this guy/girl. Big sh**pile. You'll have to trust me on this one. Sorry.
