The most amusing part is the total lack of self-awareness as he projects his own rigid partisanship on everyone else while, predictably, excepting himself. This is the type of person who fancies himself as an open minded intellectual, yet is completely intolerant of any deviation from his own views. Notice the incessant need to compartmentalize and stereotype all of those on the “right” into one simple monolith and then argue against that monolith that he himself created.

Shut up! You monoliths are all the same!
Take this crap back to Daily Kos where it belongs.
It wouldn’t be that bad if marcus were obsessed with something else. It turned worse since November elections.
I guess we can’t all be obsessed wit the Food Network and Creme Fraiche. I think the worst part about his posts is that he copies/pastes the ENTIRE story. It’s like he knows no one would even glance at the BS if he just put the link there.
My best friend from since middle school and I were planning our future in the senior year of high school. While I decided to head to college, he ended up joining the army in 2003. He was an extremely patrotic individual and also from an immigrant to this country. He died in Iraq in 2004. I wasn’t very politically inclined until that point but his death changed everything for me. I realized that elections have consequences, and sometimes those can literally mean the difference between life and death. The fact that we went into war over lies, and there was only one person in my mind resposible for the war and my best friend’s death. So yes I am obsessed as I don’t want someone else to go through what I did.
>>The fact that we went into war over lies, and there was only one person in my mind resposible for the war and my best friend’s death. I am sorry for your friend and I thank him for making the ultimate sacrifice, but this sentence says much more about you than it does about any reality around the events leading up the invasion of Iraq. It is clear your thinking is clouded by emotion (which is understandable) and have found an oversimplified scapegoat that you can lash out and blame for what is certainly a tragic loss. But, the reality is much more nuanced than conveniently rhyming bumper sticker rhetoric like “Bush Lied, People Died!” We could rehash the whole debate leading up the invasion of Iraq in Spring of 2003 and perhaps you might even learn something about the sequence of events that you weren’t apparently interested in at the time they were happening, but what’s the point? You don’t appear to have any intellectual curiosity over politics, or possess a desire to actually learn anything through discussion, you only want to continue your reflexive hatred of those that fall into your category of the “right”. So there is really no way to reconcile. If you feel better spamming the board with anything negative you can find about Republicans, to the exclusion of everything else, well good on ya. But, at some point, you may come to the realization of how shallow that really is.
^ wow. I applaud your writing style. hear hear…
