That's because you read Runner, Stuey, LiRM, and that lot.

Actually, you're wrong again. I read very little of Gunner, and Stew,
and perhaps a little more of LiRM. I find most of my time is spent
reading TMT, Winton, Brock, Myal, and Bugleman. and you.

Then you will have noticed, if you can read critically, that each of us is quite distinct. Our background knowledge, current knowledge, sources of information, information presented, writing styles, and subjects of interest are quite different, though, to be sure, there is some amount of overlap.

Well, no, I'm being quite honest when I note that your sources are
pretty much single point, though it may be true that each of you
individually gets the same information from a different place.

Well, you are being dishonest again.

Well, no, I'm not. It is your lack of reading skills that hurt you so much in topic after topic, and this is just one more reminder of that.

The truth doesn't need to be
manufactured. As a matter of fact, the truth cannot be manufactured.

On that we can agree, then. See, there is even overlap between you and me!

Some would even say that it is self-evident.

Perhaps, but they would be hopelessly naive. Now, perhaps, SOME truths might be so-described, but hardly "truth." Were that the case, we'd all be the same religion, and fake religious politicians wouldn't be asking that Creationism be taught in the science curriculum of ANY school, let alone public schools...

Maybe that's how conservatives seem to arrive at the same point.

Hardly, for a variety of reasons, foremost of which is that I am far more conservative than any of the people I name above, and I hardly arrive at the same point you do. Then again, I use actual facts to arrive at my conclusions...

Well, we do sometimes pat each other on the back,

Sometimes, huh? Sheesh!

Perhaps a percent or two of our combined posts. Much less than the group above (which, since you do not read them, you have no basis to comment upon that observation).

In the future I'll use the key word, "SLAPFEST." Be sure to keep an
eye out for it.

I'll use it as a term to mean "what follows and/or precedes is nonsense."

but in a
congratulatory way for coming up with something witty and/or original,
quite distinct from your group behavior, which is to repeat, almost
verbatim, what has already been said.

It bears repeating.

Usually, it was nonsense the first time, and the hundredth time. The NeoRepublican method is to repeat endlessly until the meme becomes indistinguishable form truth. Worked for Hitler - it is hardly original, but they certainly have polished it to a bright shiny finish. Intelligent people, and those trained in rhetorical and advertising techniques are hardly fooled, but the ornery citizens seem to go for it...

....for a while.

Yawn. See. Repetition, no original thought, adding nothing...

I'm merely encouraging you to success. I apologize that I'm no Zig
Ziggler.

I'm quite successful, thank you very much. I'm not the one endlessly and mindlessly repeating propaganda slogans...

Glad we can agree on something. Signed up for a reading comprehension
course?

The Nuns did a pretty good job of it.

Obviously they spared the ruler a bit too much with you.

I'm satisfied.

So is the hog being led to slaughter.

You made a false assertion. I called you on it. YOU back it up...
Don't worry, since you cannot, I only expect much more of this same
deflection behavior.
So answer the question.
Ding, ding, ding. We have a winner!

You SURE you are not Runner?

More deflection? I thought you wanted to get back on-topic?

And when I attempted to do so, all I got was more disdirection from you.

Now, you made several statements that were false. Either retract or attempt a defense, but quit stalling.

And all this mindless referencing of the mythical "Bobs" is just making you look silly. Autodelete mode on.

Now about that habeas corpus thingie...

What about it?

Well, he IS your resident...

Dole passed legislation which allowed a single
individual or entity to own ALL media outlets in any media market.
Very unhealthy.

And Bob Dole is from WHICH political Party? Take your time, it is obviously a trick question for you. And WHICH political Party OWNS the vast majority (there's that word again) of the supposed "public interest" mainstream media?

Of course, "vast" incorporates financial clout as well as sheer numbers.
So how "vast" would that make Soros?
Not very, since he hasn't been heard from since 2004... And he is just
one single person!

You say that ""vast" incorporates financial clout" yet it excludes
Soros because he is one person.

So, your definition of the term "vast" is "at least one?" That explains a lot.

Back-pedalling noted.

Nary a backpedal in the post. Do try to keep up (learn to read).

But then, you wouldn't know that, would you, since your "news" sources
aren't so much news as propaganda.

Propaganda indeed. I watch mostly mainstream stuff like CNN, BBC, and
listen to Air NPR.

Yet you ignore all the facts and keep spouting nonsense. Maybe it isn't only a reading comprehension problem...

Again, he can defend himself.
A pacifist defend himself? Best of Luck.
He accomplishes the feat far better than you can even dream of...

That is not evidenced on misc.survivalism. Perhaps he participates in
WWF where I do no watching.

Comprehension failure noted.

Once again you make foolish statements. Habits are hard to break.
You should be quite knowledgeable on that one.
I do! I've bitten my fingernails since childhood, and don't ever
envision a time when I will stop.

Do you still wet your bed?

Do you still beat your wife?

But at least I am not foolish.

Others see you much different than you see yourself.

Well, the only ones to claim I am foolish are spouting demonstrable nonsense, so their opinion is hardly a problem for me.

Think "people that want America to soak up terrorist attacks."
I don't know any of those, on the right or the left,
Sure you do. But you choose to believe otherwise.
Well, I was giving you and Runner and Stuey and LiRM a chance to skulk
off... You should have taken the offer.

Appeasement?

You don't even know when you've been insulted. It's no fun having a battle of wits against an unarmed person...

Consider two American Embassy bombings in Africa, the person who
planned them, and the person who refused Ethiopa's offers to hand him
over to America.
Nope, can't think of anyone that fits that description. Oh wait, did
you mean around Tora Bora, where a certain world leader called off the
chase for reasons as yet not made public? A genuine documented case of
letting a certain known terrorist off the hook? That guy?

Or are you talking VRWC fantasies that have no basis in fact?

You are definitely into denial and diversion.

Well denial, as in denying falsehood, is a perfectly legitimate technique, especially when accompanied with counter-examples.

Perhaps you should stop gainsaying everything those more educated than you say and actually take the responsibility to become educated yourself. Then you won't look so silly.

though there is
some evidence that NeoCons and other Republicans have more tolerance of
that (witness the lack of any coordinated plan to stop same) than do us
liberals and other thinkers.
Please don't use the claim of "thinkers" in the same sentence with
"liberals." Thanks.
Us liberals can think circles around you NeoCon types, any day, any place.

You are good schemers, having to get around the truth somehow.

That would be "Republicans." At least for the last 50 some years.

You mean you don't want me to tell the truth? Typical NeoCon...

I'd love to see you tell the truth. You can start any time.

Reding comprehension failures noted.

Think "pennance."
You got me on that one. What does that statement even mean?
Liberal guilt?
Nope, still doesn't register.

Denial.

Aardvark.

Think "appeasing pacifists."
Well, the only ones appeasing Osama Bin Laden are Republicans (Resident
Bush being appeaser-in-chief). The only ones hampering international
efforts to track down terrorists are in the current administration
(though, to be sure, the Democrats aren't putting up much of a fight).
The only ones to yell at the Turks for attempting to track down
terrorists are, you guessed it, George Bush and his clan...
As Brock likes to claim, Osama will turn up when we need him to most.
Yes?
I really don't know. Do you?

Brock seems to know all.

Not the Brock I have been reading.

Good luck with the reading program. You have no where to go but up.
Dan
My reading is just fine. At least it's fine enough to catch you in
your lies.
Current score:

Dan: + infinity
HHaC: 0 (zero)

Not too proud...

Dan

Wishful thinking, huh?

Damn, caught me... I admit it, that "infinity" part was certainly hyperbole, since I have only been alive for a short time, and have only made a finite number of statements over that lifetime...
