RT, can ypu verify that it actually was the current Ty who passed the Mod test for this board?

Ty, I don't give a crap what Hanson said - now, in the past, about Dingell or otherwise.

You posted the smear here, and you wouldn't have any idea what Dingell actually said if I hadn't responded.

I care about what Dingell said, though. I think it's shocking that Dingell couldn't just fricken answer that he's "against" Hezbelloh and had to make the qualifications he did. He sounds like an ass. And knock it off with our "failure to condemn North Korea." We weren't talking about North Korea. If were were, I'd condemn it. Dingell was talking about Hezbollah. He didn't flat out say he was against them. He only condemns their "violence". WTF? And why would he offer up the "I don't take sides". Nobody fucking asked him if he would take sides. This is a slam dunk.

No shit, but it's a slam dunk that he wants the U.S. to be an honest broker. [eta: That is the debate in U.S. foreign-policy circles about our overall policy re Israel and the Palestinians, which is why Dingell was speaking to it.]

I would think that your experience here so far would keep you from saying more about what Dingell thinks or wants, since you haven't tried very hard to find out.

Hate the terrorists, not fellow Americans. Stop dividing us.

Ty, I don't give a crap what you said -in the past, about Israel's existence, self defence or otherwise. I care about what you are willing to say now, though. I think it's shocking that you can't just fricken answer that Israel "has an unqualified right to exist and you support them in the self defence of the Jewish homeland" but instead had to make the burden shifting comments that you did. You sounds like an ass (no offence). And knock it off with the "I have a keyboard too" We weren't talking about my statement any longer. If were were, we can note that I already said what I am asking you to say. I support Israel. You are now talking about keyboards and burden shifting. You didn't flat out say that you accepted your own burden. You only attempt to shift it. WTF? This is a slam dunk. Sleep on it. You'll agree in the morning after you take some aspirin for the boxed wine hangover.

Why does what I say in my current shiraz-addled state have any more currency than what I said yesterday or last week?

I think it's shocking that you haven't repeated in your last post that you condemn North Korea and Iran and racism. Clearly you are backtracking on your prior commitment to standing with America against bad things. Stop the hate!

His quoted support of Hezbollah remains troubling., but at least he acknowledges that the Bush administration is responsible for democracy in Lebanon. The leftists here should take note that your side doesn't always have to make up false claims of negativity about our CinC, but instead can (and should) give him credit for bringing democracy and freedom to the ME.

!

Shiraz?!?

Intreresting, while the names Shiraz and Syrah are interchangeable, Shiraz is more commonly used in South Africa, Australia, and Canada (with Syrah being the more common name in America)

Further, the name shiraz comes from the City of Shiraz, Iran, the city of flowers, wine and poetry in Iran.

Do you hate America? Even worse [ SHUDDER] do you support Iran?

eta: a little research also shows that the California Senate voted to make Zinfandel the "historic wine" of California.

Why do you hate Zin? Dp you [ SHUDDER] hate the great state of California?

Spanky, take note of his answers, you may want to talk to Arnold about excommunication. I hear Nevada has some nice boxed Shiraz to offer.

And still you won't admit that you were wrong about his views. Interesting.

On the recommendation of a local wine store, my wife bought me a bottle of Morambro Creek shiraz, a tasty bottle from Oz. I have no reason to doubt that they recommended an Aussie wine because of Prime Minister Howard's support in the GWOT, and I have no reason to believe it had anything to do with John Quiggan.

Conspicuously absent in this response was any acknowledgement of the democracy the Bush administration has brought to the ME, as noted by Mr. Dingle. It seems to me, and I am sure many others, that this lack of support of American sponsored democracy in the ME could be inferred to imply a calculus on your part to bolster the ability of the terrorists in al Qaeda, Hezbollah and Hamas to bring down their reign of oppressive anti-freedom based false-G-d-faux-theocratic dictatorship of Islamofacism on the peoples of the ME and in the process destroy Israel. Why do you support this?

....I do not unqualifiedly support Israel's right to exist or its right to self-defense....

Go figure.

Actually, I'm backing Ty on this one. He has never personally said anything of the sort.

Why do you support Israel's destruction of Lebanese democracy?

Please note that Hezbollah and Hamas are political parties with substantial support, and that Hamas won in free elections.

Oh, Penske knows that. He was just funnin' me. He's just working on developing a slightly lighter comedic touch when he throws around accusations of anti-Semitism.

Ty,

The Honourable Mr. Dingle from Michigan tells us that Hezbollah is a terrorist organisation..........please tell me you are not voicing support for a terrorist organisation in the middle of America's War on Terror???
