CC Bats - the Insurgent. Mister hit and run.

I think the truth of the content is what bothers people most.

**mjs** · June-08-09, 03:38 PM

It could be true that people are bothered that the truth of the content is so low.

Simply put, as the last poster said, he brings nothing to many INTERESTING discussions which have a chance of going somewhere until he decides to put his 20,000 cents on it.

And once again for the people in the back, he is on my Ignore list. I don't read any of his posts. It's the first thing I did after logginginto the new site. There are plenty of other people on here with differing viewpoints that actually have something to say.

Good to see you can still have cheerleaders even though you don't have a team.

Case in point MJS...thanks for volunteering to demonstrate the cognitive dissonance.

**rb336** · June-08-09, 03:41 PM

if there is so much truth in what you say, why is it you have never, as in not even once, provided an iota of fact to back yourself up?

**mjs** · June-08-09, 03:45 PM

Double think?

ccbatson · June-08-09, 03:49 PM

Absolutes truths are self evident Rb...you should know that. A is A....existants exist.

**mjs** · June-08-09, 03:56 PM

Unless Rush or Bush says that three fingers are four or enhanced interrogation isn't torture or there's such a term as enemy combatants. I'm telling you, the master of double think.

ccbatson · June-08-09, 04:01 PM

Only the bizarre 3 to 4 finger example is a valid examples of false conclusions [[and it is imaginary/arbitrary) The others are, in fact, valid conclusions, descriptive of the issues that they address.

Hey Sstash- see that little button that looks like a cartoon talk bubble on the tool bar? It's the quote button. Easy to use.

Don't try to win a Special Olympics with him, either. He's got you on experience.

Good luck, Pam. I tried explaining that one, but he pretty much said he wasn't smart enough to figure it out.

**Sstashmoo** · June-08-09, 06:00 PM

Quote "cartoon talk bubble"

Do you mean a "Cartoon Dialogue Balloon"?

I know it's there, I don't like using it. My method is much neater and easier to read. If someone doesn't know what a quotation mark is, they probably shouldn't be reading this anyway. I actually put "Quote" in there just in case.

Bobby, nice try on the falsification and outright fabrication, you asked me this same question and got the very same reply just a few months ago. Got anything else you'd like to make up, while you're making shit up?

"Special Olympics"? On another thread, you made fun of someone's emotional affliction?

**Flanders** · June-08-09, 06:17 PM

Wow...yet another topic devoted to Bats??

Ccbatson as we all know all too well, is an objectivist, and he believes that his and ONLY his ideology is completely flawless, which exempts him from needing to back up his replies, especially to mere liberals, who accordingly would do well to learn and benefit from his compelling arguments and rational thought...

Of course objectivists like Bats believe the US should become a completely unregulated capitalist nation, with all of it's assets, infrastructure, and resources being privately owned by individuals, businesses, and corporations, with the exception of the military and the executive, legislative, and judicial branches of federal, state, and local government, which would be led by conservatives, then it would quickly become prosperous. Regrettably, perhaps as much as a third of all US citizens not incarcerated, would be unable to share in its prosperity, once all socialist entitlements are justifiably and necessarily eliminated, due to their age, physical/mental disabilities/limitations, or due to their stubborn refusal to accept personal responsibility,by not taking advantage of all of the high paying jobs that would be created by eliminating all federal, state, and local taxes that are levied on the wealthy and businesses.

Not really, that's why I mentioned the button.

Batts is just another mindless zombie of the repugnican reich.

Drank the KoolAid long ago, and has nothing of merit to offer.

His posts are pedantic, boorish, and predictable.

You might as well listen to Brush Lintball or Saracuda Failin', at least you will have a good laugh at the retarded fascism, rather than crying after Batts' posts.

**Big Dog** · June-08-09, 08:59 PM

Then why do you people respond to his posts? If no one did, he would dry up, like a pimple and be gone.

**jams** · June-08-09, 09:55 PM

Simply,he pisses people off.

He's sort of like a train wreck in slow motion, irresistable to watch, and really amusing on top of it.

Like Saracuda without the dress, or maybe with it, who knows?

Jams, if you put him on ignore he can't piss you off.

You just know that starting a thread about him gives him the attention he so desperately craves. It probably gives him a hard on about as much as naked chicks smoking cigarettes.

cheddar bob · June-08-09, 10:45 PM

And another observation...

On the old forum, Bats never started a thread. Nowadays he's regularly starting them, probably because so many people have him on ignore, he's not getting the attention he feels he deserves.

**d.mcc** · June-08-09, 11:29 PM

More importantly...What happened to the forum jump that was at the bottom of the page??? Now I have to scroll to the top everytime...

I still do not, and will never, understand why folks allow themselves to get so worked up about Cc.
Try thinking of the whole matter this way:
Cc is like a little arsonist. He strolls into a thread, posts a one-or-two-sentence comment which he knows will start a tiny blaze going, and then sits back and watches while a whole bunch of you run up and, thanks to all of your hysterical huffing & puffing, blow a steady stream of air-gusts into the flames. In short order, the tiny blaze has grown into a raging inferno, and Cc gets to sit back, watch with amusement, and say to himself, "I did that." He steps back up, intermittently, to joust a bit with some of the crowd.
I no longer begrudge him for creating his own petty diversions. In fact, who among us can honestly say that he is not pretty good at it? Further, what is the harm? How much malice or animosity-- two emotions rather prevalent here in DY-- is expressed in his nattering little remarks?
Also, I am [[once again) moved to point out that when a medical issue arises, if Cc believes that he can be of assistance or merely shed some light on the matter, he completely drops the Snarkosaurus Rex schtick and posts whatever information he has at his disposal, as well as offering suggestions and conveying his best wishes.
There are some total jackasses in this forum, but Cc is not one of them.
Ah, but I keep forgetting: This is America, so if I strongly disagree with you, it follows that you are a Bad Person.

Great post ! I have notice that his posts have been getting a little lengthy lately

**Pam** · June-09-09, 06:40 AM

Further, what is the harm?

No harm if you like trolls. Most people don't.

How much malice or animosity-- two emotions rather prevalent here in DY-- is expressed in his nattering little remarks?

It's the arrogant smugness that sets people off, though the repeated implications that "libs" are all stupid and brainwashed isn't exactly warm and fuzzy.
