Poll question: Dingbats for Kerry - another fund drive thread
So here's the plan. :bounce:

Reply to this thread with an argument for one of two possible positions:

1) Robb is a Dingbat, and why; or

2) Robb is not a Dingbat, and why.

For every person that replies and includes an argument for one of these positions, Mrs. Robb and I pledge to donate a dollar to the Kerry campaign.

This drive will end when the thread reaches page 4.

So, stand up and be counted! We wanted to donate anyhow, but this seems more funner! :silly:

2. Of COURSE Robb is a Dingbat!
Robb is the father of all Dingbats! If for no other reason than the number of polls he creates.

3. Robb cannot possibly be a dingbat, since Robb is a Democrat.
End. Of. Discussion.

4. Robb is NOT a dingbat.
I've always thought that Robb wasn't a dingbat...and working with him as a moderator, seeing what a great, consciencious job he's doing, it's even more apparent that he is NOT a dingbat!

5. Robb is not a dingbat
If we extrapolate the word to its roots, we find very interesting results. Ding is the sound a bell or other similar device might make. Bat can be either the blunt object used to bludgeon, or any of the various winged mammals that live in caves and/or are superheroes. Is Robb a device that makes ringing noises? Is he a cave dwelling mammal? Is he a blunt instrument used to smash other objects? Is he some combination of a ringing cave dwelling mammal that bludgeons small spherical objects. We must say no to each of these options.

Thus, if we look at it from the perspective of what the word means, we can prove a priori, that Robb, in fact, not only is not a dingbat, but is actually the anti-dingbat.

Dingbats cannot type well because they have wings and no phalanges, and one must have quick fingers to nuke freepers and zombies.

13. Robb is a dingbat because Robb says he is
Circular I know. But I believe Robb is a man of his word and if he says he's a dingbat then he is.

14. Robb is not a dingbat because he is a Democrat and because
he is going to donate $1 to the Kerry campaign for each person who replies and includes an argument either way.

15. Robb is a dummy not a dingbat
A dummy ala Lamont of Sanford and Son fame. Now go donate another dollar and get the pickup to tote the junk out of the White House too, you big dummy.

17. Since we are all Will Pitt, and he is not considered to be a dingbat...
It stands to reason that Robb, in fact, cannot actually be a dingbat.
:evilgrin:

Thanks, Robb -- :toast:
