    Aside from her sharp knees, the female in these videos is an attractive specimen.

    Thank you Basso.

    Greenwald writes well and has a bit to say about the Acorn fixation...

    All in all, a typical conservative response... talking tough through the keyboard on topics and then immediately whining for someone to fix something that's inconvenient because you need to have things your way and people should accommodate you.

    The thing is, I don't really expect you to read it.

    (Note: I use the default tools provided by this BBS. I never have any problems reading anyone's posts. However, if I am mistaken and you have legit issues instead of crybaby ones, take it up with Clutch.)

    Also, I notice you were able to quote the first line of the post, which clearly mentions Greenwald. If you are having technical difficulties but still wanted to read what I posted, you could easily go to Greenwald's site. I know you've been there before. That you didn't further buttresses my opinion that you don't care to read it.

    That poor guy asking the questions. He doesn't even understand what's happened with ACORN. He was asking about what's come out with regards to the ACORN Organiziation. The bit about the prostitution wasn't with the organization, but with some individuals at the organization who acted improperly.

    The people in the initial video had to go to numerous ACORNS before they caught any of them doing anything shady. So it definitely wasn't a systemic organizational problem.

    Oh well I guess that poor questioner just doesn't know any better. Maybe he'd fit right in here posting in basso threads.

    actually, i can read your post just fine, it's the quoted text that's impossible- it's presbyopia, b****.

    that's why i use the [rquoter] tag as opposed to the

    So again, you make the choice to go black and use a mac and throw out a fancy name for what is essentially old age creeping up on you in the hopes of generating sympathy and you expect me to fix your problems for you?

    Take some responsibility for your life. Quit feeling sorry for yourself and looking for excuses. Pull yourself up by the bootstraps. I am absolutely dead sure certain you are not the only one on the BBS that suffers from Presbyterianism or whatever you call it, but I don't see anyone else whining to other posters, so take your rquoter and shove it.

    gladly- just don't expect me to read the tripe you post, even if i were so inclined.

    you could save yourself a lot of time just by saving "Glenn Greenwald writes well" as autotext, and not wasting space with the actual articles.

    Nobody cares if you read it or not, because even if you did, you wouldn't discuss or debate it. You add zero or less than zero to most discussions around here.

    Well Basso does keep us in tough with the paranoid right. Since I don't meet such wingnuts much in real life it is of interest.
