sorry wortschmertz -

i don' think i can help you - You see - i really believe in 'triangulating the path (not back - but forward) to integrity, and i couldn't care less if some Democrats (or anybody) is 'triangulating' together with me - and i really try to work for 'a beautiful, safe world filled with wonder & freedom'... and all this 'stuff' about 'bastards who’ve been selling out “the Left” for so long and 'America does not have a free and fair anything (including elections!) and this 'disenfranchisement of the consumer-citizen' and the complicity of "the Left" sounds much to much 'romantic' for me - like when my dad sits down with some of his old friends and they listen to Bob and hey - they really still call it 'the Revolution' and i think they are great and i truly love them and i listen to their stories like i read your quotes and sorry - i think - (but i never tell) This is so 'NOT HOT' anymore! - a little bit like trying to keep up a straight face

in a 'serious' conversation about satire

- and about Glenn you for sure are sadly mistaken and never ever should use the word 'Naivitaet' - if you are trying to make 'friends' you better go for sinnard, heru or adnoto - and

you probably should have picked 'Weltschmerz' as your handle!

me 'peace' too kovie -

i was just trying to help - if you go back out in the real world and if you meet one of my friends

and she or he says strange things to you - like - that they absolutely loove Bush and these Republicans always were right and some other foolish 'stuff' - and you watch them how they watch you getting excited - and they look forward that you come down on them like the wrath of god - but you don't - you give them some kind of this Mona Lisa smile and you stay cool and relaxed and it will be a whole new world!

hot, Glenn!

wortschmertz - dad?

I got you - it was the 'Pyramide' which gave you away and the angry old man stuff - you are overdoing it and if mom finds out that you pulled another weltschmerznumber you will be in deep do-do again!

and -

- du hast mir versprochen, dass dein naechster Versuch etwas innovativer - hatten wir nicht besprochen die Welt mit Hilfe von Millionen von amerikanischen Haus und Kreditkartenbesitzern zu veraendern und so den 'bastards' Demut zu lehren? That's HOT dude - even if it hurts like hell!

living on lake constance -

shooter again forgot THE angel of unstained ethical standards - my daughter - remember she

told you everything that should be said about condemning torture - but we have to give it to

Mr. Greenwalds Dr. Jekyell - declaring your own moral vision to be more important than anything else, is the equivalent of throwing a two year old tantrum in the sandbox and - cute -

So here it is:

and you should stay away from the Schnaps.

dig deeper glenn -

now that you are getting to the heart of the matter. I finally would love to get an honest answer to the questions you are not asking.

Can I (we) trust all this statements of outrage about the lawlessness of Cheney and Bush which are posted here?

How many of them (including you) had expressed completely different thoughts right

after 911? (Like: "Its payback time - dudes" - or 'let's excuse Torture or even worst'?)

And please don't tell me I am playing some type of stupid moralizing game here.

It's not my fault, that Bush not only gave 'ideology' a bad rap but also ruined the idea of a consistent moral standpoint for years to come - You see - I am a member of this funny 'moral cult' of Pazifismus, which was not very popular right after 911 and now suddenly is

very much 'en vogue' and I don't know how to deal with it - and how long it lasts - and as I also share your interest in hypocrisy could a good investigator like you are find some deeper reasons all these legalizing busybodies should really spend a lot more time thinking about?

really?

sorry heru-

I just got confused - couldn't get over it that nobody ever voted for Bush - but i always knew you were my best friend!
