Bio

Love Uncommon Knowledge and saw the one with Rob and Mark, and kept following the Ricochet phenomenon.  As soon as I heard the sonorous sounds of James Lilek's voice, I signed up.

3rd angle projection: Does this damage him? Of course not. Dr. Carson is and will be just fine.

I agree with what he said. Those groups he mentioned do not get to change the definition of marriage. For me, he stated a Truth. · 2 hours ago

I was speaking specifically do political damage if he did decide to pursue office.  The media will make sure that "he equated same-sex love to beastiality."  

And maybe "those groups" technically do not get to change the definition, but the fact that he followed SSM with two horrible things is the point that everyone will remember.  

Chazzy Star

Yes, it does damage his future.  It was a terrible comparison that he made and he should've known better. 

Chazzy Star

Clarified questions from him:

1) What is the moral difference between the Weathermen and North's violent criminal actions? (Calling the Weathermen terrorists and leaving it at that just seems intellectually lazy to me--does the fact that North wore a uniform make his actions any better morally? Isn't it possible it makes them worse?)

2) What is the difference between the liberal embrace of the former and the conservative embrace of the latter?

Chazzy Star

I know, right?  Maybe he's just chewing more than he cares to bite off. 

Chazzy Star

First thought - I can't imagine North saying, "Dig it! First they killed those pigs and then they put a fork in pig Tate's belly. Wild!"

Chazzy Star

Yes!  Franco, thanks for listening.  I'm hoping he gets more pols on the show, especially local ones, for his sake.  Newsom was good to go on there.  He's good at what he does and I can't imagine a lot of other politicians who can keep up with Adam the way he did.  

Chazzy Star

Joseph, me too, though I couldn't resist "sharing" this and telling my Southern friends that this is how some of their progressive friends see them.   

Chazzy Star

Yes, Diane, he was a 5-day winner, according to Peter Robinson's Uncommon Knowledge vid w/ John.

Roberto: Painful. I dislike seeing children in political ads, particularly when they are true. · 1 minute ago

Hear hear, Roberto.  Kids in political ads makes me sick.

Donald Todd: KC: That'll be the first signal to panic: atonal music. 

Thank you.  I read that and laughed out loud.  It is always good to be reminded that we should cultivate a sense of humor.

Cordially,

Donald, right there with you.  Love me some KC comments.

The song in that video is called "The Light", by a wonderful band named The Album Leaf.  I think that if the creators looked further down the track listing of the 2006 album from which The Light comes, they would've found the more appropriate song for the ad, "Wishful Thinking".

Chazzy Star

Oh, I love making up my own "Dennis Miller Jokes". 

Example:  "I hadn't seen that many kids since John and Julia Tyler brought baby Pearl home to meet her siblings."

Kevin Walker: 

  When my time came to meet Adam, he was rude to me, and I thought, "Why am I poisoning myself with this negativity?" 

My friends who are Carolla fans think I am just being sensitive.  But I think my "conversion" is deeper than that.  At least, I hope so.

I'm a big fan but I don't really want to meet him. It has to be difficult to always put up with the same thing from people, even though they like you, it's always the same. And who among us can handle being serially nice to people hours on end?  How was he rude to you? Dismissive, hostile, mocking, what? I'm interested.  · 45 minutes ago

I'd be curious too.  The guy works like a dog and puts in the time with his fans too.  Comedians don't usually stick around after the show like he does.  You also might've caught him after a sweaty-palm handshake with the previous guy.  He hates those.

Edward Smith: Nothing to add, Chazzy Star, but my thanks.

This was a good Post, and the Thread also very good.

Mind if I Follow you? · 3 hours ago

Not at all, and I you?  But you better be hilarious.

Chazzy Star:  Here's the other reason.  When you're a boy growing up, competing for the affection of a girl, you've got to bring something to the table.  

I've heard the saying "A woman appreciates a guy who can make her laugh".  I've never heard the opposite expressed.

Don't know if that reflects a lack of truth or just a lack of truisms. · 1 minute ago

Oh, I totally need a girl to make me laugh.  I suppose I don't lead with that need, but it's not far behind the first couple.
