Got Something You Want To Say?

Anime Dad wrote:I disagree. If a sporting figure had made a racist remark, would that make it something for the sport thread? You can make it sound any way you like. Sure, certain people may not like Palin's politics, but they are not attacking her politics, they are commenting on her alleged racist remarks.

But they're not her racist remarks, alleged or proven. They're remarks taken in implication from her father(he doesn't say she hated them, but implied that was a reason she left), as recounted by writers(did they interview him or was it something they heard?), and interpreted by a reviewer. That's three layers of interpretation that do NOT lead back directly to her. The screams of racism come ONLY from members here who are politically opposite of her and hate her because of it.

Um no. Palin is a political figure and your attacks on her are grounded purely in your own political ideology.

Where did I "attack" her in that previous post?

Implication that she's racist. The same way she's being attacked.

I never said or implied anything. I just quoted the article. The only place anything is being implied is somewhere in your head, which from the posts I've read of yours on this forum, is probably a pretty scary place.

Once again, that's your opinion. You don't know that for sure. They are not "attacking" her "politics", just commenting on the racist allegations. You're the one who's making it political.

You quoted the article in support of the racist argument alone. Whether intentional or not, you implied she was racist. Same way she's being implicated. The whole motivation of the racist argument is political difference, or it would have been noticed that layers of indirect implication was all it was. The attacks and politics go hand-in-hand here.

OK, subject is closed, or this thread will be locked.

Fair enough. Would they be commenting on alleged racist remarks implied upon here if she was not a political opposite? Or would it have been a non-issue?

^ A racist is a racist, period.

Before this thread gets locked, I see the Tiger Woods Tag Heuer billboard is still up on the corner of Torrance and Western. Anybody want to bet it won't be up next weekend?

If I hadn't already said the subject was closed, I would respond. But I have.

Subject Closed.

Subject Closed.

Just to clarify, that post was written at the same time you were closing the subject. I didn't see your post until after I posted; it wasn't a stab at you.

No problem :)

Each circle needs to connect to each X with a line. However, the lines can't cross each other. Is it possible?

Erm... so no one knows? Thanks xploring, for trying to help me. :)

Oh, that didn't work. I thought that was it. Maybe it could be done if it's 3-dimensional.

It is very possible! :mrgreen: Hint: Think outside the box.

Yea, that's what I was thinking, as well. I'll make a model of it tomorrow morning and photograph the results. :victory:

Otherwise, I'm prepared to give this answer: It's impossible. It has to be. I've tried it every way my mind could allow.

If you read here they have come to the same conclusion - it's not possible.

Do the lines need to be straight? If not, then check "Three Wells Problem".
