Answer the damn question, you lousy forum bully.

You are a sad, sad four-eyed hypocrite, and a loser. You got that?
You seem to be the only person being mean...Take one chill out pill and relax for a bit.

Perhaps you need another little rest?

Ive watched both the videos you posted and im glad it went over my head in the first place.
The university seems to be acting wierd, but in the end i cant give a damn if obama has a piece of paper or not, its his actions that are going to count. The rest is USA-media-hype.

I don't think Obama cares about the paper either.

the real loser in my mind is ASU.

They had a chance to give away their first honorary degree to a president.

They had a chance to give away the first honorary degree to the first african-american president.

they end up looking ridiculous.

Maybe he gets a kick out of playing chess in hell? I mean I had a chance to walk into hell like I owned the place, play chess there, and then walk back out you can be damn sure I would do it.... Just to say I had.

I have no idea about Red Night's history but I have to agree with him on this one. This attempted snub by ASU only made them look silly. Obama's academic accomplishments alone makes him able to use their degree as toilet paper. Let alone the fact that he's the President of the United States.

But this is old news an the country has much bigger fish to fry.

So if every university would give a honorary degree to everybody who speaks there even I would have some, which I don't.

Howvere to imply that any honour not given to somebody constitutes that the awardees are higher accomplished is plain wrong.

Well, perhaps you should read up on his history.

They actually give the things away fairly easily. Most Universities and colleges give one to every commencement speaker. But not to Obama. that was really the point of the story.

A post like this doesn't say RN is laughing at the university, it says he's laughing at Obama for not obtaining the coveted honorary degree. Knowing his history better than you, I believe this was a thread to insight a little banter.

See the title also, doesn't exactly smack of sarcasm after that post I've pasted above.

Want to argue that point? Do you research on RN's forum posting record first.

Oh, I'm not defending him or even attacking him - as I don't even know the guy.

I was just stating that I agree with what I (interpreted) to be the point he was making. If he really was being troll I'm not arguing otherwise.

Trolling might be a bit harsh, many users here at RHP enjoy what RN brings to the table. Let's not call it 'trollin'... but perhaps being a Pixy, a little mischievous fairy.

To be honest *vomits in mouth a little trying to say this*........Red isn't the worst, he's just the bastion of all things good and righteous in any common or garden fundamentalist church, and must be punished for this by injections of reality from time to time........But Troll is definitely very harsh.

He's not the worst.

Seems crazy that a post making fun of a ludicrous decision by a third-rate American University has degenerated into a discussion about my posting style and motives, but that is the PFC way.
