The Columbia Guide to Standard American English (3):

Than is both a subordinating conjunction, as in She is wiser than I am, and a preposition, as in She is wiser than me.... Since the following verb am is often dropped or “understood,” we regularly hear than I and than me. Some commentators believe that the conjunction is currently more frequent than the preposition, but both are unquestionably Standard.

Than I versus Than Me:

Than, as used in comparatives , has traditionally been considered a conjunction; as such, if you're comparing subjects, the pronouns after than should take the "subjective case." In other words, "He's taller than I," not "He's taller than me"; "She's smarter than he," not "She's smarter than him." If, on the other hand, you're comparing direct or indirect objects, the pronouns should be objective: "I've never worked with a more difficult client than him."

About what 'oh so hypocritical' liberal?


If at first you don't succeed...

Some people are worthy of air; some aren't.


Wow butter, now you want me dead. You are like rocky and the shooter.

Lovely person to be raising a small child. I shall pray for his survival.

Pray? To whom - Mary? Or is it just your husband that's Catholic and practices such silliness? Funny, you've never said you're Catholic. Hmmmm. Must be some trouble in that marriage.

I don't care that I didn't erase it in time. It is what it is. The only people who care about you are the right-wing idiots on this forum. Even your brother-in-law hates you. I know because you were downing wine and *****ing about it on TNF on Thanksgiving night. Roll Eyes

I'll do fine at raising my son. At least I'd never be selfish enough to off myself and leave my son. Your kids are probably as emotionally unstable as you. Poor things.

What do I care if you don't try to impress your family? "Than me" is acceptable to educated people, but of course you wouldn't know anything about educated people. You don't know anything about anything it seems. You stay shut in your house and keep your kid away from people too. Wow what a freakshow your family must be! Yowser. Big night for you, it's going to snow and you have your beer. Your life is complete.
So much for Glenn Beck inciting violence.

You just put him to shame, butter.

Congrats.

Some one here is crazy, but it's not me.

I have never told someone to kill themselves. You are such a shining example of a liberal.
You should leave your kid in school, someone sane needs to teach him. You will just turn him into another Jared.

You have managed to make rocky look normal, that is quite a feat.


I hate to think of the people at the business you work for.

Glad you don't live near me, I would be afraid for my safety.

Dehumanizing their critics, usually a first step by the left to justify their violent actions towards them! Not good butters!
Jared Loughner is described as a "left-wing political radical."​A classmate of the man accused of shooting Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords this morning describes him as "left wing" and a "pot head" in a series of posts on Twitter this afternoon.

Caitie Parker did not immediately respond to our request for an interview, but her "tweets" in the hours after the shooting paint a picture of Jared Loughner as a substance-abusing loner who had met Giffords before the shooting. She says, Loughner described the congresswoman as "stupid and unintelligent."

We've confirmed that Parker and Loughner went to school together at Mountain View High School in Tucson and that both attended Pima Community College, so her claims of knowing Loughner seem to be legit.

Parker "tweets" that she and Loughner were in the band together and were friends until 2007 when he became "reclusive" after getting alcohol poisoning and dropping out of college.

She describes him as "quite liberal" and as a "political radical."

No, but I AM against what the governor was obviously doing.

Instead of launching such silly extremist statements, she needs to learn how better to enter constructive dialogue with her political opponents

She is not a good speaker, I'll give you that. The Second amendment was put in the constitution for a reason, thankfully the Founding Fathers realized how government can get out of control as did the British.
Do I think that is happening now, no.

Jennifer, when you give up your socialist police department, your socialist fire department, you socialist military, your socialist government, and even your tax-payer supported socialist church, then, and only then, will your empty words have any meaning.

There was a Federal Judge killed who dosen't get much press as the Congresswoman.
Any idea as to his political leanings ?
I think I heard he was a Bush appointee.
That being the case, it probably is the fact that this was not politically motivated in the way we are thinking (left-right, red-blue etc). In other words, it could be just any politician, either side of the isle.
Having said all that, the rhetoric generated by the likes of Palin and Angle and T-party (next time we'll have bullets ) signs has led us down a path I am sorry to see us go in.
The right to Free Speech we have, but there are way too many who fail to realize that free speech can carry a high cost. This could very well be a shining example. Everybody who hears the rants of "second amendment remedies" or sees targets on people aren't necessarily sane.


I've been searching the internet for your "next time we'll have bullets" comment and can't find any reference to it. Please provide links.

I could just as easily, actually more easily, attribute this act to the fact that anything goes liberalism is destroying our youths minds and ability to think for themselves. All the crap we see on TV along with what they play on video games can be traced straight back to liberals belief that they have the right to do anything they want. We live in a society where progressives see no problem with aborting babies out of convenience or because "it's a woman's body". No wonder human life is not valued, kids are being trained on killing simulators and adults are killing babies because they can.

Hoob, this statement is so stupid it deserves no discussion. I'm going to let it pass because even tho we don't agree on much, I think I know you, and if you are who I think you are, I like (liked) you and this sort of statement is below what you are about, even tho if you are who I think you are , you used to listen to Rush every day at noon

To start a thread that puts the blame of this tradgedy on conservative news personalities is a great example of how many weak minded fools there are in this once great country.


No, you don't know me. I don't listen to Rush, never have and never will. I certainly don't have time, especially around noon, to stop work and listen to the radio. Only a complete idiot would think that someone would do this based on anything Beck or Palin has or has not said. I could pick and choose and take your words out of context just as easily as you have done others. Unlike you, I don't keep my head stuck up my fourth point of contact and inundate myself with leftwing silliness. I get my news from all sources, liberal and conservative and that makes me a more well informed person.

Everything I've said is true, you don't want to argue it because you can't. It is what it is. The more liberal this country gets, the worse off we become. Pull your head out and see for yourself.


I'm glad you aren't who I thought, so I guess you are in the same class with stuck in traffic.

Now, the facts of the shooting in Tucson are clearer. As an acquaintance of Jared Loughner, stated, "He did not watch TV. He disliked the news. He didn’t listen to political radio. He didn’t take sides. He wasn’t on the left. He wasn’t on the right."

There is no link to Sarah Palin, Sean Hannity or Rush Limbaugh. No links to talk radio or Fox News, nor the Tea Party. None, nunca, nada, zilch!

For the past week, pundits and reporters, who should carry the title of poseur, have inundated the air waves, internet and print with statements blaming conservatives. Instead, we seen a window in to vapid minds and dessicated souls -- the reporters.

They so hate those they oppose, they will say anything and write anything to defame them, even if innocent.

Yesterday, Palin spoke out. What was the response from the broadcast media?

ABC -- "Sarah Palin, once again, has found a way to become part of the story. And she may well face further criticism for the timing and scope of her remarks.'

Listen, you sanctimonious idiots, if you hadn't tried to defame her, there would have been no story, no reason for you to be writing the article.

CBS -- "Analysis: Palin Plays the Victim Card.'

Any reporter writing this forty years ago would no longer have a job. It was the media that tried to crucify her. She played only the cards she was dealt.

NBC -- Andrea Mitchell: Palin "Ignorant" For Using Term "Blood Libel"

No, Mitchell, your Most High Ignorance, Palin, as a Christian and a defender of Israel would know full well the meaning of blood libel -- the killing of Christian children for blood to make matzos. We all know it.

She used the phrase, fully justified, to describe the vile, hate filled venom spewed by those who revile her. As a hunter, I suspect she smells the fear and hatred.

Palin's aides state that death threats are at a high. Fully expected, of course, that's part of the strategy, isn't it!

Palin was not the first to use that analogy either.

If she is shot, I would hate to think how much joy that would bring some of the 'sicker' individuals on the left.


One effect it would have is that it would be a hell of a lot quieter.
