WT: " You're insane. You do know that, don't you? The WT of your fevered imagination exists only there. ..."

And that is why you do not adress a single point? The main one being that your support of a government strong enough to do your "ever so liberal" bidding is also strong enough to wring all our necks.

yeah, well, Bloomburg can kiss my ***. Too.

I don't know about you'all, but it's 2008 (here) and we've (Americans) been fighting a War in Iraq, which Bloom is all for, for ... I forget how long, and don't have no idea why. That is poofing crazy... my fellow Americans, esp. those of you who may be living in Iowa.

It's not, as William puts it, that I'm agin fighting. But, by God, when I'm fighting I at least want to know who/what I am fighting. It just makes sense to do it that way.

I've got to go for now. Just wanted to say a word or three to all the sweet-talkers around here;

happy new year.

burp,

bah.

bethincary, thanks for the link. The Washington Post has an article about the dispute out this morning, they are citing a forensic doctor in Maryland that he doesn't think the little radiological dots are evidence of a bullet, but he questions how a blunt trauma to the side of her head could have killed her that quickly, I had been wondering about that, too. The original, in which a bullet entered her neck, severely damaged her spinal column and exited from her right temporal, and another bullet entered her shoulder and exited her chest would have produced the correct result -- lots of blood, instant loss of bodily function and breathing, followed by loss of heartbeat either from shock, lack of oxygen, or tamponade.

WT -- I had noticed Hillary's acumen on foreign policy suddenly. I hoped that perhaps the Hillary behind the handlers would come out. I keep hoping every election that the (wo)man behind the curtain will speak, I'm tired of all the great and powerful Oz stuff. BTW, a certain South Asian whose opinions I respect said you only have to look at Benazir Bhutto to understand why she could never vote for Hillary -- we've had a dynastic recurrence of the Bush family, we follow it by a dynastic recurrence of the Clinton family, and to her that looks like South Asian politics -- the Nehrus, the Bhuttos, the Aung Sans, etc. She has a point.

If Barack were an ex con doing day labor?

That is what Obama the candidate wishes on Obama the teen/young adult.

Barack claims to be a man of faith and yet he apparently has no clue that the sin Jesus the Christ most often and vociferously denounced was that of hypocrisy.

I think his "faith" is about as thick as the coating on an M&M.

Don't tell me you're a Christian, let me figure it out.

Why is no Pres candidate other than RP and DK advocating the end of the fascist "war" on "drugs"?

Because they're beholden to big Pharma, Big Law, and keeping the niggers down?

This white nigger says fuck them all.

MS: " ...We now know that Bucky does believe in evolution, but apparently not as the producer of different species...."

Now where the hell did you get that? I see two ways. One, you just can not read; and I was plain.

Two: you think that only gradualist Darwinism is evolution --- which means you pleased the hell out of your secondary science teachers.

Which is it?

By the way, read:

http://www.edwardgoldsmith.org/page29.html

and see how scientists are treated when they confront the Church of Darwin. Especially given Goldschmidt's personal trails.

You've misunderstood me. Truly. I'm neither a pacifist nor a non-interventionist, but when I think of intervention, I don't generally think of pointing guns at people, or moving aircraft carriers around, not immediately, anyway. I hate shortcuts, especially those which tend to get people killed for no apparent reason other than to demonstrate that we can kill them.

You know what I mean/meant. I should have said it better. You resist the inevitable, often for good reason. Like Al Gore taking the high road and not fighting back in 2000 or Kerry taking the high road many times in 2004 and not fighting back.

As Mencken once said,

"Every normal man must be tempted at times to spit upon his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats."

There was that time you seemed to agree we could have stayed out of WWI. Really, it wasn't possible. To do so would have put off the inevitable and maybe changed the course of history for the worse. Just send the idjit boy over to PZ Meyers with Fred Reed's stupid nonsense. One thing I regret is Glenn's decision to let Lew Rockwell carry his articles. They retitle them sometimes.

Wow William T., I just received a fax that I'm to warmonger you and get vexed. The GOPS want me to wake you up from a s;leep.

I'm ordered to grow some hot cherry bombs, red rocket bomb peppers, habaenro, and long Joe's cayenne peppers for your bowl of New Years chilly con-neocon soup. Your to be told

you contribute nothing to the conversation.

I's faxed that you are a warmongering shrill.

There is no "intelligent design" in what you have said all year....Fax, fax, fax.

Your are to be compared to scientist Richard Dawkins, Carl Sagan, Darwin, Cinderella, and John Polkinghorne.

The faxed meme orders your adversaries!

You are to be labled a savage warmonger.

You are a academonic and know-knowing adversary.

The Plan:

You are adversarial. Everybody else is peaceful. Gads.

With no charm or beauty like old Angus, the notion to prevail by non-conversation...is to

go round and round, round and round. The GOP box ring will demand nothing to be positive or allow any good to take place HERE ever all year.

Only egg-head complex arguments must take place. Use side-faxed birch - bark scrolls which are so-called "informed" scientific works. Pedinska is a ball of cats-fun

W.T. is a 'homo sapiens' who recorded on cave walls .

Yet trolls can add to the conflict about the 21 century threatened environment until the cows moo.

Context and local "contextuality" are to befuddle.

Avoid any hope of true conversation. Argue "abstract thought" and be slanderous and savage.

There is to be no allowance for self-transcendence.

Call other thinkers names every day. Have no discernment and especially have no concern for other's unique contributions of thought. Stunt the brain with whiskey, wine, or drug stimulants. Use grunts, groans, and mumble ugly linguistic rubbish. skip this. 'um itch for a fight. Why? Damaged. sad.

Or- Refuse to be adversarial.
