:D :D the insulting connotation doesn't hurt, but the cha-cha thing really sets it apart....

I don't understand this post, but something about it is funny.

OT -- would this apply to foreign and military policy as well?

you make some very good points. part of it is that Congress, as it has in so many areas, has surrendered and (unconstitutionally) allowed other groups to handle what should be legislative duties, for political reasons and to avoid difficult issues. the court has assumed this super-legislative...

LOL

(golf clap) great example of the neocon 180:* a reversal of historical acts and actors so obviously and arrogantly false that one is at a loss as to how to respond. those that held up white-powder vials with conviction, and chanted "mushroom cloud" and "sarin" for 8 months on national...

Breakdown for simplicity: Pointless ad hominem babble. Attack, shift focus. - What planet are you on? - I suppose you believe that ALL of the world's major, middling, and minor news organizations are in on bungrider's HAL conspiracy? - Please do tell if so. If not, then what makes you...

that sums up the entire post nicely: those that do not agree are whacko lunatic liars and just all around bad people.

facts? why is that any more or less believable than anything else said on the issue? another piece of unsubstantiated hype. all that's missing is a cheesy synth-drum foxnews soundtrack. and the last sentence, "The author is an MP and special envoy on human rights in Iraq to the Prime...

fwiw, my post was directed to the statement, not the author, and imo not at all diversionary -- the point being that the rumsfeldian-type of attitude (essentially boiling down to, if not in letter then in spirit: 'we will do whatever we want, and we don't care what you inferior people think -...

nice construction - scornful, pompous, dismissive, ad hominem - it hits all points (but to fully adhere to the neocon structure you could maybe add that even raising such a point might lead decent Americans to question his "patriotism." to really top it off, a vague insinuation of criminality...

indeed.

no. I don't like the rep/wt scheme, nor the emphasis on going to failure. as I said, it may work for others.

work is not dependent on time, power is work over time super slow = PAIN :p
