Only in
Texas? Not really...but it's certainly par for the course...
That's a great example of a misplaced inappropriate and hateful mindset that breeds more callousness and cynical overtones being accepted towards an entire race and I'm not an Arab fan. The reason is that when I see people from Arabian countries it makes me think about how in my view. we would have been a lot better off if the trade structure and manufacturing sector/trade deficits etc... could have struck a balance with globalization where as in the 50's and 60's, many countries were strong and thriving with mostly common sense restrictions and policies that pretty much kept everyone happy. We might have been better off without planes. But I wouldn't think of saying something to a child of any race that was insulting and had absolutely nothing to do with their existence, good, bad or indifferent. It really pisses me off when I hear a parent speaking with an 8 year old as if the child is an emotional equal and fully comprehends the attitude. I'm not suggesting there's not a need for discipline and guidance, I'm saying that many parents are incapable of the enormous responsibility they signed up for.
Posted by: lil mike Wow. I'm really sorry you let youself get so twisted that you think that. You know, I don't think your lying. I think after a full day of hyperpartisan frenzy, not to mention two and a half years of unlearning how to think critically, I've no doubt you really did read my post and saw nothing but BUSH BUSH and MORE BUSH.
heh.
Anyway, you've convinced me that there is literally nothing I could have written that you would not have seen the spectre of Bush in my words. All I can do is roll my eyes.
As an almost impartial observer, I see truth in what's being said here. It goes both ways and sometimes three ways. The three of you obviously have a deep seeded love/hate game that's not as serious as it appears to me at times. My thinking is that if you want to move away from that being your constant unchangeable m.o. which is not entertaining...Instead of beating the dead horses that Jack Kirpatrick and Shana Alexander covered on 60 Minutes in 1970:Have a Sweden spirited thread or section where issues, policies. whatever, can only be discussed based on verifiable facts of x event;maybe recent history that's not still being investigated. Something that goes deeper than a battle of threads of the day type thing and anything, even if it's only one thread...that stops the endless cycle. It's like if my music stuff was only about my faves or was any
one thing, it wouldn't have gone anywhere.
