When you lefties get done watching Maddow tonight, help me out.

I do care more than zero. You should start the Ed O. show. You and Rachel can take turns making snide comments on tv.

I do care about the 400 million dollars because it is going to go to another state instead. I don't care if New Jersey gets it or if Ohio gets it or if Alaska gets it. I care because 400 million dollars is a lot of money to waste on public schools. I know that you can actually spend a lot more in California just to build a school, but that is another topic.

I literally use both figures of speech. If you people think that someone saying they could care less is stupid, good for them. I have heard a million people say it and I use it often. When I literally don't give a flying fuck about something, I say that I couldn't care less. If I am talking about something that interests me somewhat but doesn't affect me much I say I could care less.

 

No blacks or messicans.

 

How about this, when the Blazers play the Lakers and the Blazers get called for a foul, do you decide whether it is really a foul based on what Mike Rice thinks?

When Rachel Maddow or Keith Olbermann show videos of Republicans flip flopping on every issue known to man, I don't discount what I saw because I saw it on their shows.

I just don't stick my head in the sand and pretend that Democrats aren't just as dishonest, they are.

 

Divide and conquer won't get you anywhere.

 

I agree with your general method there. They aren't going to point out their own viewpoint flaws readily, but they will with really bad ones. But they also are going to point out the other view point flaws quicker. It would be nice to see CNN actually pick up that moderate viewer market.

 

Hey, I had just read a Reader's Digest story online where someone who thinks that they are smarter than everyone else wrote that using the term HONE IN is incorrect and that HOME IN is the correct term. When something is a figure of speech, only grammar Nazis want to make sure that everyone conforms to the literal usage. The first example in this story was about the term I used. When I don't care about something completely I usually say "I don't give a flying fuck"

A good example would be when the world cup was happening a while back. I didn't and still don't give a fuck about soccer.

Another phrase the author said was improper was "begs the question." Then the author wrote that the proper phrase is "raises the question."
I don't think that I literally lift questions up in the air, but maybe I am crazy.


Back to could or couldn't.

Your assertion that I don't use it the way common usage would suggest conflicts with your assertion that I used it incorrectly. If the common usage is what matters then either sentence would be considered accurate.

See, I work on cars for a living and breathe isocyanates on a regular basis. The fact that I can read and write at the level I can at my age is pretty impressive in my opinion. I am sure that I didn't use proper grammar in many parts of my post, don't care.

When people regularly say things like "I borrowed him some money" we might have something to worry about.

A show I would like to see is one starring me. I would have to get in better shape so I wouldn't get tired, but I could invite Hannity Olbermann and Maddow and O'Reilly on and slap the shit out of any or all of them whenever they start regurgitating their usual garbage. That would be fun.

Watch Tosh.O if you want to see a good show.
