reassessment anthropological roped:cheapness pander knotting,…

I tune those jokes out, just as I do the “Bush is an idiot” jokes. In each case the only reason to laugh would be shared hatred with the teller. And none of the premises for those joke threads are true. They only raise the hate levels and inject bitterness into disagreements that, while they may never be removed, can at least be calmly acknowledge while preserving the humanity of ones opponent.

Re: “Who’s the little troll wannabe with the brush stroke a mile wide that always want to paint conservatives as the evil people who are always licking at the boots of Bush no matter what?”

I never mentioned “boots”.

Re: “O.k., but you CAN have both, you know…”

Interesting point…. Actually that was partly the concept behind the Broadway play “Wicked”, which has received great reviews.

It says the more we tell it that someone is not spam, the more it “learns”. I have yet to see it…..

(don’t click on that first sentence in my post #89, it was just supposed to be italicized. I inadvertently used the “a” instead of the “em” tag, and all it will do is bring you to the top of the page.)

O.k., but you CAN have both, you know…

IGGEDY BIGGADY ZAGADY ZOOOOP!

It’s yours!

ooops! Now where did THAT come from?! Guess I don’t know my own strength.

Besides, why should we be so deadly serious or visciously attacking each other all the time. A litle self-depricating humor can lighten up any discussion.

Who’s the little troll wannabe with the brush stroke a mile wide that always want to paint conservatives as the evil people who are always licking at the boots of Bush no matter what? Oh yeah, that’s you steve. Although you should be good at jokes, your entire existence here is one big one.

Must be high

Let’s test it. I heard this great joke this morning. Hillary and Obama run for President…

She was such a wonder shade of green.

Why am I not surprised?

I’m at work at the moment so limited time for posting, research, and linking now.

Re: “Why is it that whenever I see a comment from Philly Steve, this image comes to mind”

I always preferred Margaret Hamilton to Billie Burke myself.

As executinve Editor, Mr. Barnes takes credit for his publication

Now that’s some funky odd-ball freakish logic right there.

Surely you jest.

Again, I’ll ask you, what did Mr. Barnes himself say?

You claimed that he said something, now what was it?

What were his words?

That would be Bill Clinton appointed Judge Baer, no?

Yes, that’s him.

“Here, in part, is what Judge Baer had to say about the Iraq-9/11 connection:”

That would be Bill Clinton appointed Judge Baer, no?

If you have an example of me citing Matt Drudge, I’ll eat my hat.

This report specifically lists numerous examples of Saddam’s regime working with Egyptian Islamic Jihad (a link that was also reported by the FBI during the Clinton and Bush Admins). This is significant because the leaders of EIJ were also 2/3 of the leadership of AQ (Zawahiri for example, but he’s only 1 of hundreds). The report also documents dozens of examples of Saddam’s regime working with radical Islamics like Al Queda, and much more.

Your information is hugely dated, based on very little very old intel, and you’re afraid to open your mind (remember, liberal means “open-minded”) to the possiblity that you’re wrong.

Why doesn’t Bush go on TV? Getting the truth out there is the greatest shortcoming and example of ineptitude of his administration, but it doesn’t help that media outlets (like NBC this week) prefer to make up their own truth and misrepresent what he actually says. That’s why so many arguments against the Iraq War are paper tigers.

5 million killed-reality is about 100,000 in 5yrs (a slower rate than the Kosovo war)
3 trillion in costs-reality (even DNC admits this now) is under $500bn over 5yrs-less than the cost of containment was in the Clinton years)
no wmd-reality in the 1000+pg of the ISG report is that there was a WMD threat just not in the form of stockpiles
inspections woulda worked-reality, even Blix, Ritter, and others acknowledge that they couldn’t work without Iraq’s help, and we know Iraq couldn’t/didn’t want to help because it would remove their deterrent against others
no ties to AQ-reality from captured docs and hundreds of regime leaders caught working with AQ is that yeah, Saddam was a huge state sponsor of terror, far worse than was previously known, and that the war in Iraq is part of war on terror
AQ is only small part of insurgency-reality, small in numbers, but most of the killing come not from the large numbers of part time insurgents but from AQ suicide bombers; ie AQ does most of the work in the insurgency

I could go on and on, but in the end…the real distortion of intel, facts, etc isn’t some BUSHLIED bit, but rather Demslied and MSM hyped (gosh, American media would never do such a thing, right).

And of course the answer is:
