No More Oasis Wars!!!

[liberalpragmatist]

I'm a big fan of Oasis and all these stupid Oasis threads are getting annoying! On BOTH ends! No more talk of Oasis in the DU Lounge - EVER. Oh, and HalfManHalfBiscuit and LoZoccolo are on speaking probation - b/c as much as I love Oasis, NOBODY insults The Beatles!!! E-vah!

:)

1. Oasis suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

6. Exactly the kind of response you'd expect from a war profiteer

7. War profiteering ruuuuuuuuuuuuu

les.

:P

[LoZoccolo]

2. I believe I'm protected by the first amendment.

Not letting people post on a message board is unconstitutional.

I know my rights.

[liberalpragmatist]

4. Just Slide Away, LoZoccolo

:P

9. Congress not letting you post on a message board in unconstitutional.

Skinner can do whatever he damn well pleases on his own property.

[LoZoccolo]

18. Yes it is.

We have free speech in this country.

[Lone Pawn]

21. Amendment I:

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

If Skinner decides that he doesn't want to store your 'speech' on his personal server, how does that conflict with Congress' being disallowed from restricting speech?

[LoZoccolo]

24. This is a free country.

Dissent is patriotic.

[Lone Pawn]

26. Your mama's a free country too!

Oh! Burned!

[LoZoccolo]

27. Your mama's so dumb...

...she brought a spoon to the Super Bowl.

I love being able to use my free speech.

[liberalpragmatist]

22. First amendment text - REVISED by act of LiberalPragmatist, 03/11/05

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press, except in instances when the aforementioned freedoms are used to insult John, Paul, George, or Ringo; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances.

[LoZoccolo]

25. That is what Sony and Michael Jackson want to do to the Constitution.

It is a good thing we have dissenting patriots to make sure I can post what I want on DU.

3. :) I hope everyone realizes that most of us are only kidding...

on both sides. I don't hate Oasis, but it sure is fun to pretend to!

I'm sure it's also fun for others to pretend they think Oasis is a pantheon of gods.


Agree on the Beatles, though. Insulting them should be punishable by hanging.

8. Well, yeah, that's what the smiley implies, doesn't it?

Hope I was clear on that. It's a DU Lounge flamewar! What could be more fun?

[4_Legs_Good]

12. Of course, of course

but other topics that I thought were all in good fun have gotten a little serious over the past few days.

Anyway, keep up the good work!

5. The Beatles are half-dead...

So there...

[Lone Pawn]

11. And Liam is half-brained

So there

:)

[RetroLounge]

13. I hear John and George are losing weight...

:hi:

RL

[liberalpragmatist]

15. Whoa - "that was a low"!

That calls for Blur-pun comebacks. Don't EVER be insulting John or George! That's crossing a line right there!

"End of the Century" for you Retrolounge!

[RetroLounge]

17. Blur-pun comebacks?

You wouldn't...

RL

[liberalpragmatist]

19. Oh yes I would! Woohoo!

What can I say? "There's no other way"!

[RetroLounge]

20. In That Case

"Why Don't we do it in the road?"

RL

[liberalpragmatist]

23. Hold on "For Tommorrow"

Then we can go at it in my "Country House." You gonna "Roll With It"?

[RetroLounge]

28. Well, "Tomorrow never knows"

nor does "Yesterday"

[LibertyorDeath]

10. Well if it's between Oasis and

a steaming pile of shit

I'm going with the shit

[last_texas_dem]

14. I like Oasis, too

I created my one Oasis thread (Bo Donaldson and the Heywoods vs. Oasis) in the hopes of seeing them pull off a victory on a DU poll. I'm surprised at the level of Oasis hatred here in the Lounge.

[liberalpragmatist]

16. I think it's mostly the work of HalfManHalfBiscuit and LoZoccolo

They like to needle the Lounge with Beatles-hatred.

What can I say? I guess they take their cues from Liam!
