Just reminding you of your dishonesty. Your posts seem to illustrate that you keep forgetting.
Just so long as you understand your bigotry and ignorance is on display while doing so, that's fine by me.
Please - continue your pre-pubescent tantrum.
 
We are all mongrels i would say.Skin colour is not a great indicator of you DNA long term.
 
After reading the thread one would think that after the whole Shirley Sherrod event we would have learned that context of a statement is always important. I guess not.

Since your dishonesty runs rampant, it is easy to discount this as more dishonesty. And seems to me that is you throwing the tantrum. You got caught with your hand in the cookie jar, and now you're claiming you didn't do anything... even though you've got crumbs all over your hands and your breath smells like chocolate chips. :lol:
 
What else do you/did you need to answer the question, other than the specific meaning of the term 'mongrel', and why?

Having a problem with basic reading comprehension, are we? I need the context it was used in, as I said in my previous response. Sorry to have to tell this, but you aren't clever, Thinking people can recognize bait most times when they see it. Does it upset you that not everyone will give you your "Aha! Gotcha!" moment? Seems rather dishonest and childish to me.

Yawn.
What exactly do you need to know other than the specific meaning of the word as used, why do you need to know it, and how sould any of that change your response to the question?
 
This more evidence of your dishonesty.
What you fail to recognize - at thias point, deliberately - is that your claims of dishonesty on my part are based on nothing other than your ignorant ans bigoted assumptions.
Goven that, you may continue to claim that I am dishonest all you want -- it only serves to illustrate said bigotry and dishonesty.
 
Yawn.

from that post, it is clear you need to read something to become better acquainted with the importance of context; try this:
Semantics - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
 
. You got caught with your hand in the cookie jar...
What you deliberately fail to recognize is that your ignorant and bigoted presumptions to this effect are wrong.
And so, to save face, the tantrum here is yours.
 
I heard this today and was curious as to what everyone thinks.
Basically, most thinking people have come to the conclusion that your poll is snarky.

Snarky as in "snide and sarcastic?" In exactly what context do you mean that??

This was a learning moment. For those who can't figure that out, I'd suggest they lighten up. Or is it just a slow news day?

If you peruse enough Goobieman polls, the context renders itself crystal clear.
 
I asked a specific question looking for specific asnwers. Your response does not address that question.

actually, from what you posted, presenting that the context in which a word is used has no bearing so long as the definition is known, it was apparent you could not be very well acquainted with the concept of semantics. which is why i sent you to a site to remedy that shortcoming
if you want to read your post again to understand why i found you were without an understanding of semantics, here it is:
Yawn.

it may well be that to acknowledge semantics undermines your attempts to paint the useage of a word as absolute, such that the context in which a word is used will have no bearing upon how it is heard. i have tried to disabuse you of that notion, but like the horse, i can lead you to water but cannot force you to think
 
Yawn.

I've given you the specific answer at least twice now, it's up to you to find someone to explain it to you, since you don't seem capable of comprehending simple English.
 
Moderator's Warning:
Time for people on every side of this to get less insulting towards each other. Thank you.
 
Well if this is going to be a label of some sort, then I would suppose we are all American mongrels or we are not. Besides why would anyone ask such a ridiculous question.
 
It does matter what the context is because it can be offensive to state that African Americans are of mixed breed.

As long as its not coming from a black man.
Gotcha.
 
Yes, because everytime I point out that the Messiah is a liar, the Lefties jump all over me. So I'm going to say the Messiah told the truth this time.

Not that I have any idea what the word "mongrel" might mean, since I'm mongrelized Irish and German, and my kids are mongrelized Irish and German and French and Manchurian.

The problem really is that the Messiah, abandoned by his sperm donor, educated in an Indonesian madrassas, has picked up thoroughly un-American notions about the importance of antecedants as opposed to the American ideal that the measure of a man is his accomplishments.

This is perfectly understandable because the Messiah hasn't accomplished **** yet.
 
Yet another stupid thread started by conservatives to bash Obama over something so minor and insignificant.

If Vacant Lott said EXACTLY what the Messiah had said, you people would be all over him like purple on an eggplant.
 
I find this poll very insulting and that would be a NO. I pity fools that would look at any persons as mutts.
 
Well if this is going to be a label of some sort, then I would suppose we are all American mongrels or we are not.

Agree 100%

... why would anyone ask such a ridiculous question.

However, the question is not riduculous until someone assocites the word with some negative meaning.
