    I was just curious what led you to believe by my statement that I was a righty. I'm more of a centrist. What I posted was actually a more left-ist thing to say, as I was saying that it wasn't clinton's fault.

    I envy your situation. I'm at work...

    You'd lose that wager.

    And, if you make a "you're not the boss of me" sort of response, then what else are we to conclude but that you're a teen?

    Now, as to lumping people together as "right" and "left", that's just intellectual laziness. If you want to continue, be my guest. I'm not the boss of you after all.

    “That there Sad-dam n' them Iraqis had nouthin' whatever tuh do with them 9/11 terrorist attacks by Osama bin Laden who is his enemy, the fanatic actually labeled the dick tater an “apostate” - which is sumpthin’ really, really bad if yer ay fanatic.

    Saddam has no nookyeller programme, has not been stockpilin' weapons of mass destruction, has never even threatened the U S of A, and there are no mobile biolabs runnin' 'roud there either, despite all that crap yer bein' fed.

    Hell, we know that from years of daily reconnaissance - our planes continually flyin’ over - Soviet missiles were photographed in Cuba 40 years ago in a hah fly-over, and you don’t think aerial surveillance has got ay heck of a lot better since then?

    Ah chortle!

    Now, like my pappy done told me, Iraq keeps Iran in line, and offin’ the dastard in Baghdad would be a big present to those ol’ boys in Tehran! You go traipsin’ intuh Iraq and you gonna unleash heaps o’ that there sectarian violence!

    Hell, yuh could even end up doin' it gist tuh end up with ay repressive, corrupt Shia strongman that’ll commence tuh givin' yuh ay boot up the arse and narry a “Thanky”!

    Who the hell wants tuh take on ay multi-trillion dollar nation-buildin’ fiasco tuh be left with doodly-squat in term o’ them “permanent US military bases” the neoconnives been talkin’ ‘bout?

    Sure, we maht git ourselves the world’s biggest "embassy" - bigger ‘n Vatican City even - fur ay bargain price o’ gist $750 million, but we kaint even fill it with all them ebola doctors n’ nurses we maht suspect some day!

    Ah thinks we’d be smart tuh gist take a pass, n’ go after that there bin Laden varmint!

    Next tahm that Chainee feller tries tuh boss me ‘round, ah’m gonna tell ‘im, “Listen, Sweep Pea, sendin’ young ‘mericans tuh their daiths or lahves o’ pain n’ misery is too hah a price tuh make ‘em pay fer a shoe upsides yer haid, n' Reublican candy-dates treatin' yuh for years lahk you done used it tuh step in sumpthin' fierce bad!

    :applause:

    For the creativity and the effort it took.

    Nice.

    :)

    You are all wrong, of course. But when I behold before my eyes a talking dog, I'm not wont to criticize it's lack of erudition as much as I marvel that he can talk at all!

    I didn't know you had it in you!

    and which book do you refer?

    The Bible? The Quran? The Talmud?

    - - - Updated - - -

    Yes, freedom under Sharia law, is completely different than freedom under American law, especially for women.

    both the Bible and the Torah (not the Talmud - I am assuming that you don't really know the difference) are considered holy books in Islam....fyi.




    Freedom may be different but they didn't fly airplanes into our buildings because our concept of freedom was different than theirs.

    Oh sure, theyre holy books alright, but those holes are from bullets.

    Yes, The Muslim version of freedom, is exactly why terrorists flew airplanes full of people, into buildings full of people.

    They want freedom from the beliefs of the infidels.

    I do think its completely hilarious, that democrats constantly defend islam. Democrats are the first people muslims would hang, if they got the chance.

    The average muslim isnt really fond of the gay agenda, womens rights, nor the denigration of religion.

    Thank you. There are so few apologists still actually trying to make the monumental Iraq disaster appear as a "good thing", and humourously conveying to them the dismal facts of the matter is a relatively painless way of cluing them in.

    No kindness goes unpunished, but my magnanimity supplements my acumen in administering the truth to the irrationally resistant.

    Loved this line!!!

    :D

    PK

    EDIT:
    I know!!! Right? LOLOL

    The fact of my original contention (pre-dating Michael Savage's book, btw ) that Liberals really are hardwired differently than Conservatives, just keeps being validated by evidence shown or cited on these pages every, single, day!

    :D

    I am curious. Have you ever met a real life muslim? Have you ever lived in a muslim society? Do you have any basis for your position other than it's what the right wing noise machine tells you to say?


    Because, I have lived in a muslim country. I have been invited into their homes and to the weddings of their children, and the muslims that I know from first hand experience are a lot different than the ones you claim to know all about from your zero-experience.

    funny, eh?

    ymmv.

    I lived there. I met many many muslims in Lebanon and still am in contact with several. I had nothing but marvelous experiences with them... very kind, very generous, very hospitable. I'm sorry your experiences are different.

    Actually, GW Bush was Fredo. He let Johnny Ola (Dick Cheney), staff his whole administration with Israeli spies sent over by Hyman Roth, (Bibi Netanyahu).
