There are reasons every company he actully ran failed. Just saying.

We could all learn Esperanto.

What I thought was interesting about that exchange was the suggestion, from a native of Iran who is unsympathetic to the current regime, that bombs would entrench the current regime for a long, long time.

I assumed that he was GOP muckety muck, given the nature of the event, and so it didn't occur to me that there might have been an insult, and the fact that he was a magazine editor didn't even register.

Sorry, Ty. If you'd look in the supersecret KOS archives (password "Slaveland!"), you'd see a densely written set of instructions to this guy to infiltrate the GOP muckity muck meeting so that he could level this scathing insult at our president. Since we now know that the Democrat Party is a fearsome, monolithic force set on destroying America except when it's being feckless and subject to derision, we also know that this magazine editor, in reality, had little choice but to obey.

This mental paralysis -- gratitude decaying into idolatry -- is sterile: Neither the man nor his moment will recur. Conservatives should face the fact that Reaganism cannot define conservatism.

Damn, boys. You gonna let Will piss in your cereal like that?

you realize the part about Cheney was an insult, though, don't you?

as to the great work the dissidents are doing, Howard Stern has been asking some interesting questions: If the Iraq people are so willing to fight and die, why didn't they do it with Sadamm? I know the Sunnis would have no reason, and broad based revolt were Chemical attacked, but why wasn't there some onging resistance fro the Shites in Baghdad?

this is an example of the "blindly kissing up to Ty" that I mentioned.

Poll: How many logical flaws can you identify in Gattigap's post?

The post is mocking what you, Slave and Penske have been chanting for the last day or two. If you really want to count flaws in something that's tracking your arguments, go wild.

cite please. find anything within a year where I cite DU or Kos. or, alternatively, explain how "does Cheney know" is not an insult to the President?

Your position, then, is that KOS and DU represent something less than the monolithic voice of intolerance and hate that Slave suggests constitutes the Democratic Party today? Your posts over the last couple of days -- no, make that the last 365 days -- have masked that well. W p, p!

translation: ............ well I can't translate it. he's just ful of shit. I have taken nothing from DKos or DU, since I've read enough LGF to know that you have to discount the nuts.

Again, if you can post anything I posted that implies something else, please do.

I do note that your party leader told a radio interviewer that it was quite possible President Bush knew about 9/11 and was involved in it somehow.

Apropos, Hank, because I can't follow what the fuck you're arguing about either.

Here's the thing, Hank. My post made fun of Slave's preposterous argument that the Democratic Party somehow acts with one voice, and that the KOS and DUs somehow represent that voice.

Your point, such as it is, seems to be, "Hey, I don't quote KOS. You know, in the last 365 days. Point for Hank." Is this how you pursue all your arguments here?

Taking that to be true, I would further note that Bush hasn't denied it. Hmmmmmm . . . .
