Shooter's Damaging hobby
[Read the article: Al-Qaida does it, too]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]And here you are, doing nothing about what current intelligence is informing us of. For both you and GWB there is no solution that is palatable. That's the real world. Currently you have more information regarding a possible catastrophe than Bush did. So I say again....what about it?
-Shooter
Was that supposed to be your question to me about what to do about Iran? If so, it is a ridiculous comparison to the bin laden PDB to begin with. for one thing, real intelligence reports don't consider Iran to be anywhere near being a nuclear threat.
Aside from that, you are covering for bush - who while president of the United States was receiving 'hair on fire' reports about al quaida and doing absolutely nothing about - by challenging me to come up with a solution to an ongoing situation that has no immediacy to it.
The US government should be spending a great deal of time engaging in honest dialog and diplomacy with Iran. Unfortunately, honest dialog and diplomacy are tools that the Bush Administration has an abysmal track record of failure with, though, so that probably isn't and won't happen as long as they head our government. But, that is what I would suggest.
Along with that I would suggest that our intelligence agencies not be run and filled by useless cronies, and that they gather and report as much honest information as is possible to gather and report.
I'd say come back when you have something besides noise to offer but you have been nothing but noise from the outset. From the very first time I ever read one of your posts. So for me to even ask for anything different from you would be foolish on my part. My preference, really, is that you go away and not come back at all. I can't help but suggest to you that you find new hobby. Not that I care about your welfare, I don't, but this hobby you've been partaking in for far too long has to be very bad for your health. Think about that. For all our sakes.

Shooter's lack of parameters
[Read the article: Al-Qaida does it, too]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Given that you can't come up with anything at all even with all the advantages of historical perspective makes my point that Bush had no avenue to pursue.
-shooter
That is your point?
Shooter, you just cannot be f'ing serious. Not about that so called point, and not about calling us sad little men just because we don't waste our fingers giving you a 007 plan for defeating bin laden's evil plans.
You are becoming more and more of what I think of as parody troll. To me that means that you can't possibly believe what you are posting. I think you're probably rudderless about life really and so you convince yourself that you believe what you post but you don't really have any parameters so you've just chosen to play the constant contrarian for reasons that I can't fathom.
Whatever. I just wish you'd take a hike.

Bucky1's "Big Government"
[Read the article: Mike Allen, consummate Beltway "journalist"]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]The fact that you can not imagine staying safe without a big government to "protect you" does not surprise me.
-bucky1
You wrote that to Jonathan. It's that kind of exaggeration and deceit in your comments that are causing you to become nothing more than a bore.
Jonathan, and others who have been replying to you, are not all about "BIG" government just because they are for government in general. Plus, you seem to be completely ignoring the fact that government, in America, is - in principle - of/for and by the people.

Bucky Hoppe
[Read the article: Mike Allen, consummate Beltway "journalist"]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]"The rich are characteristically bright and industrious, and the poor typically dull, lazy, or both. It is not very likely that dullards..."
-Hoppe
Bullshit, Mr. Hoppe. Especially in regards to a worldwide scale.
I began reading from the lewrockwell article by Hoppe that you posted, bucky1. He talks so much in circles that I was too dizzy to continue. I'll have to go back with waders on later and try again.
You seem to be confusing American Democrats with the complicated idea of promoting democracy around the world.

Bucky's Hero?
[Read the article: Mike Allen, consummate Beltway "journalist"]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]I've now read as much of it as I was willing or able to waste my time on.
Conclusion: Simplistic clap-trap. There is just nothing more to that guy, or what he goes on about.

Bucky's Rich Friends
[Read the article: Mike Allen, consummate Beltway "journalist"]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]After all, the 'permanently' rich and the 'permanently' poor are usually rich or poor for a reason. The rich are characteristically bright and industrious, and the poor typically dull, lazy, or both. It is not very likely that dullards, even if they make up a majority, will systematically outsmart and enrich themselves at the expense of a minority of bright and energetic individuals.
-Hoppe
I don't agree with that simplistic and insulting quote no matter if it is supposed to pertain to Appalachia, South Africa, India, Iraq or most anywhere else I can think of. Appalachia, for example, was ruled with an iron fist by the coal companies. Hard working sonsabithces got squat for their efforts in comparison to the rich, who hired thugs at any uprisings or attempts at unionizing.
And then, what about India? What about many parts of Africa? Do you think - as Hoppe apparently does - that the 'permanently' rich and 'permanently' poor are in that way because the rich are smart and the poor are lazy?
Hoppe is talking about rich and poor worlwide. I didn't see any words he used to differentiate between various societies. The word "usually" doesn't cut it. The guy is a skank and an utter loon.
