I was thinking perhaps it was someone that was very emotionally invested in this particular thread on a personal level. But usually when people like that reply they write 30 paragraphs. Perhaps someone who is at a loss for words?
Maybe some leftist agitator website sent out some minions to conquer the blogosphere, and this guy got RPF duty. Or hey, maybe one of those government paid trolls we've been hearing so much about lately, you never know.
To my knowledge there isn't a way to receive notifications on a thread, especially if someone doesn't directly reply to you, which I wasn't. That's the only reason I was questioning things. Was this guy sitting here refreshing the page over and over again for four hours, late into the night?
Edit: Just learned you can "subscribe" to a thread. Well I guess you learn something new every day. Anyway that explains that.

Stick around long enough and you will see the truth my friend. It is inevitable, even if your eyes are currently welded shut with the puss of Statism. Your fear of the unknown will be lifted. You were born with an ingrained desire to not be controlled by others. I have faith.

'F**k the EU': Snr US State Dept. official caught in alleged phone chat on Ukraine

A senior US State Department official has allegedly been caught giving an unexpected message to the EU while discussing Ukrainian opposition leaders’ roles in the country’s future government. The phone call was taped and posted on YouTube.
"F**k the EU," Assistant Secretary of State for Europe Victoria Nuland allegedly said in a recent phone call with US ambassador to Ukraine Geoffrey Pyatt, as the two were discussing a deal to end the crisis in Ukraine.
The four-minute video - titled ‘Maidan puppets,’ referring to Independence Square in Ukraine’s capital - was uploaded by an anonymous user. The origin of the recording is not clear. The video was first reported in the Kyiv Post.
The US State Department did not deny the authenticity of the video and stressed that Nuland had apologized for the "reported comments."
The conversation is mainly focused on Ukraine’s government and President Viktor Yanukovich's offer last month to make opposition leader Arseniy Yatsenyuk the new prime minister and Vitaly Klitschko deputy prime minister.
“I don’t think that Klitschko should go into the government. I don’t think it is necessary. I don’t think it is a good idea,” a female voice - allegedly Nuland - said.
“In terms of him not going into the government, just let him stay out and do his political homework,” a male voice - believed to be Pyatt - replied. “In terms of the process moving ahead, we want to keep the moderate democrats together,” he said.
As Nuland sees it, Ukrainian opposition leader Arseniy Yatsenyuk should be in charge of the new government and Klitschko would not get along with him. “It’s just not going to work,” she said.

I saw a "press conference" with Carl Dix from the media compound.
Generally, he seemed level-headed and on the right side of the Ferguson issue: It's not necessarily about Michael Brown and the shooting, this is about a tension between the cops and the people that has been brewing for decades and is getting worse, partly due to the militarization of the cops.
But then he justified his stance, and basically said that its a race war. It's not about any philosophical problems with the creation of a super-class of enforcers or problems with people being suckered into poverty by govt policies. According to him, the whole thing is about the white man hating on the blacks, Mexicans, and Asians and keeping them down. He seemed less like a genuine Communist who would have railed on capitalists and the managerial class and more like a typical race-baiting Democrat.

That's typical. They may pay a little lip service to the militarization of Police, but they always steer it towards "race" relations. They are doing it 24x7 on CNN.
And after they cry "social justice", their solution is always the redistribution of wealth (with crony-corporatists taking the largest piece), more handouts to keep people dependent upon them, a more powerful, all-seeing Big Brother to "watch-out" for their pet issues, and of course, more militarization of the Police to enforce their leviathan-god.

You are grossly misinformed about many of the positions advocated by liberals. I recommend you spend a few minutes at democratic underground. You'll be surprised at when you might find. We are your natural allies on stuff like civil liberties and social issues.

Not sure glancing over the thread if this specific group has been mentioned already, but I do remember one of the streams in Ferguson the other day interviewing a local older lady from the neighborhood, she was saying that the group responsible for starting the rioting wasn't people in Ferguson, but instead was a group out of Chicago called "Revolution something". I just saw a banner being held by a couple of people in Oakland where it said something along the lines of it's okay to Rebel the people in Ferguson are Revolting follow their lead or something along those lines. The banner listed the following URL and sure enough it looks like the group is based out of Chicago;

Paving everyone's road to hell with your misdirected good intentions does not make you our best friends. Invariably your 'cures' involve taking on more of the same disease.
You Democrats would do well to learn to listen to your own best and brightest:

I haven't been following the details of this too closely, but it seemed to me a clear-cut case of government vs the people. But then Al Sharpton shows up to try to spin it as whites vs blacks. That seems to happen a lot. I'm guessing that Government is sending in many types of people - on all sides - to try to hide the essential fact that the people in Ferguson are pissed at Government. So the usual suspects are sent in to say "but the cop was white, this is about whites vs blacks", when blacks and plenty whites are pissed off that there's too much Government, and it does things like kill people.
