Genocide

- Jake007

I wonder if you have any children. People who cheer on genocide are the laziest, most incapable of thinking beyond how to take a dump without crusting up their panties or boxers or briefs.

Go back to Freperland, where they will greet your basement-boy slaughter dreams with out-stretched arms.

Insane

you don’t think the ROBERTS Supreme Court would uphold empounding every Arab-American or otherwise suspected terrorist in the meantime?

-- Jake007

"The Roberts Supreme Court"? WTF? When did the Supreme Court become someone's plaything?

Monday, May 14, 2007 10:21 AM

What the hell is your question?

"I take it you’ve never heard it referred to as the Rehnquist Supreme Court, or Burger Supreme Court -- sorry to confuse you like that -- I was simply referring to it as historians do. If you’d rather not answer my question, though, that’s fine."

You're not alone

Maybe I'm alone in this, but I'd prefer those red stars go away.

I agree, Holly. With all of it.

They're also anti-American, but my argument here revolves around the little stupidities we're all capable of, not the issue of honor.

@Current Fool

I was simply referring to it as historians do.

Could you please name one historian who has titled the Supreme Court as the "Robert's Supreme Court"?

Idiot's Delight

P.S. Kitt -- you can see the several times I asked you the question about what the Roberts Court will do when you evaded it with "WTF?" and the like.

-- Jake007

There is no such thing as "The Roberts Court" and I really don't understand WTF your question is. Your "question" is like asking someone that if dogs could talk (for real) what do you think they would say? It's a retarded statement.

Could it be possible for you to do something beyond barking incessantly?

D'Wad

P.S. Kitt – sorry, but Mr. Greenwald has requested I only post once per page, so you will excuse me if I don’t waste that one post repeating myself to you multiple times over. Once you answer my question, in a civil manner, I will certainly return the same courtesy to you.

This "courtesy" thing coming from a person who is all in with genocide.

I was just getting warmed up when you stole my line. I guess I'll just go back to reading commnents and nibbling on pretzels. No need for my input here.

Karen's tiny url

Karen,

You're having too much fun with your newly discovered tinyurl.

Monday, May 14, 2007 04:36 PM

What?

Karen,

I know this topic is sex laced, but really, calm down, :0).

Yes. I'm with you.

Richard Perle

I wonder how it is that Bush and etc are still at even 28%. If you look at the comment pages on WaPo after that revolting, disgusting excuse for a human being, Richard Perle, was given voice it is a slaughter. Both for Perle and for the Washington Post for having published the filthy liar.

"Anonymous letter above is mine - GG"

That explains it. I was confused why 'anonymous' didn't identify him/her self.

Wesley on bad singers.

they sing in a pathetic, lifeless monotone to boot.

-- Wesley_Powell

I was with you until you said that. My brother is a church goer. I gave of myself and went with him and his family a time or two. I basically despise so called 'religion'. But, hey, tell you what, that congregation sang really...really well.

Also, I like bluegrass or, more accurately, old time country. Great gospel singing and playing, even though I don't believe a word of what they're saying in the songs.

And that doesn't even take into account how inspiring the long history of black spirituals have been and still are. Wow!

Wesley

Kitt

My bad. Yes. A small percentage of congregations put their hearts into the hymms........And they are more irritating than the majority pathetic, lifeless monotoners.

-- Wesley_Powell

Now, that's just an ugly attitude. If you think that singing in key,or say, Allison Krause is irritating, well, then, you're missing some of the enjoyment that life has to offer.

Wesley Guessing

I Think The Monotoners

Deep down know it's false. So they are to be congratulated for that......They do it just in case.

-- Wesley_Powell

You certainly don't know that and neither do I.

Listen to "I'll Fly Away", the link I posted. That's an old spiritual written back during slavery times. If your entire people were enslaved, as the blacks were, you just might hope for an afterlife.

As much as I despise the the manipulative aspect of religion I have compassion and understanding for why some people resort to looking for something better to look forward to.

Wesley

"I'll Fly Away"

I'm sorry. That is false.

-- Wesley_Powell

You are missing my point. Maybe someone else could chime in. You just aren't getting what I'm saying. I'll Fly Away being "false" is completely irrelevant to this discussion I'm trying to have.

To you all

More of that "insincere" and "false" singing.

Bond, Jake Bond

Read the book and then see the movie Snow Falling on Cedars. You continue to disgust me.

Bebop-o

You married? Smack! apologies

-- bebop-o

Flattered that you enjoy my commentary, Bebop-o. But I should inform you that I'm Kitt as in Kit Carson rather than, say, Anne Frank's made up freind, Kitty, that she addresses in her diary. In other words...I'm a guy.

Still, though, no apologies necessary.

So glad you are as deeply moved by Snow Falling on Cedars as I am.
