I can't believe they let this crap into our newspaper:

Here's some neanterthal excrement I scraped off the bottom of the Fargo Forum's opinion septic tank tonight:

--------------------------------------------------------------------
****************** letter: A third party candidate for president would be welcome
The Forum - 01/28/2004

Well, it looks like if President Bush wins re-election, we will be stuck to have to listen to the crying, bellyaching, sobbing and moaning Democrats for another four years.

Which one of the idiots they will put up for the White House is anybody’s guess…whoever it is will be another chad or dimple.

At least it will not the KKK Byrd, Chappaquiddick Teddy, nor the man “who invented the Internet” Gore. What a collection of morons. Do not forget Jimmy 444 days Carter…aka the “idiot.”

I just wish there was another alternative to vote for -- a third party candidate who could win.

Yeah, that arguement is REALLY gonna convince me to join your side.:eyes: These are the types of people I deal with every day.

What an intelligent newspaper, huh???

1. Man, that sucks.

I didn't know people up in the Fargo/Moorehead area were redneck racists.

Here in Morris, at least most of the campus is Democratic so I don't have to listen to any RW bastards. :)

[SmileyBoy]

2. Not everyone here (on campus, at least) is like that...

...but it sucks to know that the Forum gives equal time to ad-hominem attacks from the right-wing as well as legitimate arguments from the left.

3. I lived in F-M

up until a couple years ago. I didn't realize they were that way either.

4. Welcome to DU!!!

:hi::hi::hi:

Where do you live now???

[Qanisqineq]

6. Illinois for now...

but when my husband gets back from Iraq... Colorado

And thanks for the welcome! I've been just "lurking" for a while

[SmileyBoy]

8. I wish your husband all the best!!!

:thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:

Hope he comes home real soon.

9. Thanks!

Only 2.5 more months of this deployment left!

16. Let me offer you a Pre-Welcome to Colorado.

SUVs are NOT necessary here, despite what you might observe. Snow on the front range (eastern slope) melts within a day.

I suggest you take up photography, and try river rafting... it's beautiful here.:hi:

17. Hi Tolania!!

Welcome to DU!! :toast:

5. Fargo Forum, what do you expect?

one of the disgusting right wing rags in America. Also doesn't it have Scaife connections?

[SmileyBoy]

7. I used to think it was pretty center up until recently.

Even the Grand Forks Herald (Knight-Ridder rag) is starting to look pretty left in comparison.

10. Not my strategy..

IF Bush gets re-appointed to the White House, I'm just gonna wait until all those "Cargo Cult ReTHUGs" start "crying, bellyaching, sobbing and moaning" about how they've been out of work for 6 months then I'll say

"We TOLD you SO, but you trusted some drugged out pig on the radio instead. NOW are you interested in improving your situation? Or will you continue to vote for the GOP, hoping to 'get yours' while they get rich on your backs?"...

Naw, I won't say that. Too wordy. I'll lose their attention between "Told you so" and "pig"......

11. That letter sucks but

it's not representative of what they've been printing lately. I don't check the letters page every day, but there are about 2 anti-Bush letters for every pro-Bush letter recently. And the anti-Bush ones tend to be well-thought out and written, while the pro-Bush ones are crap like the one you posted.

There are a lot of people in the Fargo-Moorhead area who have had it with *, and they're saying so. I'd say that's good news.

12. Look At The Last Line

This guy is ripe for the plucking. Look at the last line. You may not be able to get his vote, but you can nullify his vote. Convince him to vote for Nader or someone like that. Just as every green vote helped Bush in 2000 every vote for ANYONE else (if you cant persuade them to vote Democratic) is to our advantage.

13. Correct me if I'm wrong but

Weren't Americans held hostage in one place or other throughout most of Reagan's "Mr. we don't deal with terrorists" term?

Of course we all know what his word meant. Not only did he deal with terrorists quite a bit while he was president (arms to Iran), he also sold arms and chemical weapon starter kits to Iran's enemy. Of course we all know now that that enemy was Iraq. Saddam Hussein was Mr. Reagan's best friend. He gassed his own people you know. Yes he did do that. It was 1988!

After he dealt with those terrorists he covertly funneled the money he'd made by dealing with some more terrorists - the contras in Nicaragua who were in the process of trying to overthrow a democratically elected government. Yes Ronald Reagan made Americans feel good about themselves.

Why do I look at this shit so early in the a.m.? :puke:

14. Send It To Move On!

They need some ammo to debunk the left wing media lie! That's a great example of KKKompassionate KKKonservatism at it's best!

[SmileyBoy]

15. This idiot frequently spews that crap to our newspaper.

He just writes ad-hominem attacks to the paper. Absolutely NO LOGIC WHATSOEVER in his letters. It's like a bully trying to pick a fight with someone. It's not even a rant. "Rant" is too good of a word for this shit. "Rant" implies that there's some passion and statements to back it up. This retard is just spewing. He's just looking for a fight.
