I need a favor from capable Republican debators

Post by Bob »

I'm voting dem myself, but that's not the point. Here's what's going on: my wife is a member of a lovey-dovey all-moms' forum called MichiganMommas. A few days ago, a guy appeared there and started ripping into these poor women. They are not debators, and their "politics" forum has more in common with Glamour than with Newsweek. This guy is tearing them apart and hurting their feelings.

The administrator has refused to ban him despite numerous requests. My hot wife would greatly appreciate it if a couple people would register over there, post a fake "intro" message in their welcome forum, and then pummel that guy with some legitimate counter debate. If you'd pretend to be women; that's all the better.

His name is James, and he appears to VERY anti-Bush.

Any takers?

I'm neither a Republican nor a mother, but after taking a look at that forum, I can't begin to express how happy I am that we don't allow images in signatures on these forums.

That place makes my head hurt... :shock:

Does that guy not understand the "Mommies" part? What a touch hole.

You can't pretend for the sake of Bob's wife? That guy deserves a little Grund, if anyone ever did. :)

Beating up on mommies is not cool.

But as far as your criteria, I am 0 for 3 in the capable, Republican, and debator departments.

First, I'm not sure a bunch more men invading a MI Mamas forum is what they need or want right now, especially the likes of us geeks. :shock:

Second, I agree with Tareeq, Grund would flatten this James guy. James is way too angry for his own good. When I clicked the link the first thread on the page looked civil enough so I had figured the outrage was that a guy had infiltrated a forum populated by females on teh internet or some such. But then I read the 7-pager and saw what a twit he is. Damn, why does that guy have to be a hacking for Kerry? I'd much prefer he were a Republican nut job. :twisted:

Sorry, I forgot the question when I saw Bob's hot wife.

Seriously although the huge signatures have got to go I was really impressed with how respectful the ladies are to each other. Even when expressing dramatically different viewpoints they do it with an amazing amount of style.

I read James posts too, its obvious he is getting off by trying to be the big rooster in the henhouse. To bad they won't let him go.

Actually, perhaps what we need is a reasonable Kerry supporter to go in and argue down the unreasonable one.

The debater isn't going to work Bob. James isn't interested in a debate or the "logical arguement" he keeps requesting. He is there to try to make himself feel good by making others feel bad. Someone who argues with him will just be more fuel for the fire. If they make good points he will just turn to insults or spout rhetoric to circumvent the issue.

And after reading those forums I have just figured out that DBT doesn't have an unusual obsession with smilies, he has just been speaking Michigan Mommy to us for the past few years.

Oh, and the Blowing off Steam forum is great. What a bunch of crazy women.

What about directing that "James" to THIS forum so that our intelligent Republican debaters would be able to teach that guy a lesson? :D

That might just be a good idea. I'll run it by the woman. (this thread may have to be edited to protect the not so innocent, first though.)

Re Dbt: I noticed that. 90% of the posts those ladies make are just smilies.

You know, I actually just read through some of that. I would take the honor of taking this tool out back behind the shed and beating him senseless, but how can I do that in a forum called "MichiganMommas"?

I can't. I would feel dirty violating that place with what this clown deserves.

I've been absolutely aching for someone to put the "hunh?!" pic on. He will do quite nicely.

And for the love of Pete - considering that this is a favor to Bob and his hot wife - can we get a little assistance from all sides of the aisle on this. If we can't be bi-partisan in teaching this guy a lesson for Bob's hot wife, what can we be bi-partisan about?

In other words, if I'm intentionally posting insane pro-Bush, anti-Kerry stuff that we all know to be false, I don't need trig running in to beat me over the head with TPM links and such. Let's use Bob's hot wife to bring us together.

We need a good cop/bad cop strategy. Someone needs to become the super-Bush nemesis. Another needs to try to play peacemaker.

Let's see how long we can string him along.

I like to think that some of us on the left have done our part in putting the smack down on those who post insane pro-Kerry, anti-Bush stuff. A troll is a troll, whether it's a "Bush Resume" or a "Libertarians for Bush" post.

Sounds like fun, but let's not like Bride-of-Exodor know about that bit, alright?
