For, as we all know, it is both tactically and strategically sound, to the highest degree, to invite into camp (and give them a place to pitch their own little camp-within-the-camp) those who committed to one's destruction and the destruction of all that one holds dear. But then, DryRot is a cynic (that's how he knows he's superior to you); do cynics hold anything, other than their own superiority, dear?
Well, Troy, at least Stan had the balls to put on a uniform and end up in Vietnam. You, on the other hand, are far too cowardly to ever do anything like that.

Ezra Levant is making a different point than I am, and that's OK: Ezra Levant: The Christians are going to save the Jews[^]
There was an anti-Semitic protest at Stephen Harper's riding office in Calgary the other day. ... There was precisely one counter-protester, with a tiny Israeli flag: At one point, the police told that counter-protester that if he didn't leave, he'd be arrested for "inciting civil disorder". I'm not making that up -- the lone pro-Israeli protester was told that, not the 175 people trespassing on the parking lot of a private mall. Maybe that's why the cops were too busy to station someone inside. ...
According to this UK website: Madonna targeted by Muslim fanatics over Israel's attack on Gaza[^] How can this be??!!! She's on record as hating Bush! She's on record as stating the "fact" that Bush is the problem in the world (and, unless I'm misremembering, "conservative Christians"). How can *she* be a target?

You foolish, foolish, intellectually dishonest thing, you. It was *over* years before I came of age. If you weren't so committed to intellectual dishonesty, you'd not step in it all the time like this. But, you can't help but be yorself, can you? edit: Hell! You can track down my address (or so you claim), but you can't figure out my age, even though the two numbers needed to compute it are on one of those pages you love to look at? (Which, by the way, ought to disappear in a few days.) Frankly, I'm shocked that a "chicken-hawk" like you could miss that.

Same tactics they teach everyone else - Army War College (by correspondence of course).
Chaining ourselves to the moral high ground does not make us good guys. Aside from making us easy targets, it merely makes us idiotic prisoners of our own self loathing.

Really? So the U.S. didn't maintain any armed forces during the 70's? Surely you don't think there was no chance for you to serve your country? Admit it. You are a lying coward, content to let others fight and die, while you post heroic messages on the internet.

What a coward. Taking down your website because I found it. Are you afraid I won't figure out that your email is tdhailey@sprintmail.com? What a yellow-bellied coward :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

Interesting. You seem to know all the gayboy insults. Now I worked as a lighting designer in theatre for years, so I've heard 'em all from the chorus queens insulting each other, but why is it you know them? Does it have anything to do with that 'wide stance' you like to take?

Or perhaps it's just his fantasies kicking in again.
Pathetic. Actually editing quotes as if the original would somehow go away. Or are you so narcissistic that you think that there are people who read only your posts? By the way, your use of illiterate was incorrect. I know it stung when I called you that yesterday, after you demonstrated your total lack of knowledge about Dickens, but still and all, you should have checked out exactly what it meant before you started using it.

He has a point. I assume you are wise enough to understand that when the wise man argues with a fool, it becomes hard to tell the difference. Take your own advice: vote to remove his message and move on.

Which is precisely why I do not even attempt to argue with you "community" boys: there is no there there with you all.

Because it is way too much to expect people to OBEY the friggin LAW? :omg:
Persons of certain "protected" classes are not to be expected to be law-abiding. And certainly not in Canada (of course, in many European countries the crisis-point is even closer). Far too many in "the west" ... and here in the Sandbox ... imagine that we can satisfy Islamic blood-lust by tossing the Jews to them. And, of course, I must be silenced because I scoff at that rank foolishness [edit: both the immorality of it, which is one sort of deliberate foolishness, and the futility of it, which is another].

No doubt. But isn't the important question whether anyone else shares this preference? edit: And isn't it odd that you intend to simultaneously assert that there is no objective truth, or at least that objective truth cannot be known if it does exist (which assertion is a self-contradiction), with the assertion that what you see, or choose to see, is objectively true?

OK. Though it pains me to admit it, I guess you guys are right. (you, too, Josh, if you read this. You hit the nail on the head. I do have better things to do) No more back-and-forth with Ilidgit. I promise. It's a waste of my time and Chris's bandwidth.

When overwhelmingly outnumbered, always charge uphill into a heavily fortified position. :laugh:

It is standard US combat policy to be prepared to engage the enemy on any ground, chosen or not, and remove him from it. To gain the offensive initiative and maintain the offensive initiative, going on defense only for as long as is required to regroup, resupply. SO, yes, absolutely, you want your enemy on the defensive and worrying about choosing his ground.
