again, either you call all Politicians by their full legal name, or you are a hypocrite.



this is a discussion forum, everyone is "quibbling" The least we can do is get peoples names right.

So are you still saying that the name of the fella is NOT Robert Francis O'Rourke? How is that my "opinion". You have only shown your own ignorance. You know I'm right and you are still wrong. Put on your big girl panties and face the facts.

And remember, you gotta take everything in "context"...

Haven't we learned our lesson from similar characters in the past? How is this guy popular?
Strategy to divide the Democrats? Not falling for it. Big tent. Lots of ideas. Stick to ruining the Republican Party with your methods.

lol - Sorry, but you haven't come close to proving anyone wrong. I merely pointed out that Beta or Beto is not the name of the individual in question. Or do you think his name is Ted instead? What's to pick?

But if you want to keep showing your ignorance, go ahead, as is your wont. Just keep it in context. And I'll let you have the last word, as I know you can't resist.

p.s. And if the best you can say about him is to defend how his not-name is spelled, he is in deep trouble. This thread is about how unimpressive he is, and you have managed to prove that in spades!

It's very ironic that anyone would question how 'real' Beto is, while constantly apologizing for and defending a reality tv host who wears layers and layers of makeup, fake tans, fake hair, fake marriage, fake gold furniture, phony kids. But Rump is real? Not.

I never denied any of that about Trump. I challenge you to find any post where I have.

Yet again, you got nothing Enigma777 because while you attempt to paste me with this nonsense, we all know you ignored it 100% when it came to the Clintons.

So true Thanks for the laugh. It was worth spitting out my wine.

Yes. You will see it trotted out often and early and by the usual suspects.

Beto is a common Hispanic abbreviation for Roberto (or Robert) not unlike that Ted is an abbreviation for Edward. Now Robert O'Rourke was glossed "Beto" by friends and family since childhood. I'm not sure of the motivation that made Rafael go with Ted. Maybe it was a Canadian thing.


As far as Beta goes, that's Waldo's trying to be clever saying he's a beta male, as opposed to those desirable "alphas". Basically trying to call him a **** without breaking TOS.
