Posting hate speech behind an anonymous address only kills your arguments. If you want to talk about politics, do so with your face. This is a democracy. We talk.
i was remembering when i tried to bring reason into a wanky argument with a troll on who_anon and then suddenly thought, "WTF? why did i just do that? *facepalm*"
now you can be on plushy pillows of comfort and niceness! the country has just rounded a corner, taken a step forward, and some other appropriate metaphor. hurrah!
I've been doing cold calls for Obama for a month now. You'd think by now I'd known that there is NO WAY for me to reason with these people. I mean really. I had a lady tell me that the polls had closed and she voted for the white dude already.
i was campaigning door to door for the past month and a half and talked to some hilariously racist folks. i had a guy who, when asked who he might be voting for, answer, "the AMERICAN!!!!" and then go onto a long, rambling racist screed about how obama was really a foreign muslim who studied with terrorists in sudan. "if he's really american why won't he show us his birth certificate?! i just saw it all on the CBS news!" okay!

anyway, we should have sympathy. imagine being that lame and ignorant at a time like this! so sad.
