    The Truth About The So-Called War On Terror

    "We've decided to wage war with any of the poor who won't buckle under. Only my fellow ill-educated Americans are dumb enough to go for that, hook, line and sinker." What I mean is, only we Americans would approve of THAT kind of war. I really don't think anyone else would be dumb enough to buy...

    The Truth About The So-Called War On Terror

    You missed a few points here. The difference between us and them is, since we're a 'democracy' we ARE legitimate targets - whereas THEY have a dictator/monarch, etc. It's a long held tenet of war that the head of state (us in our country, supposedly) is a legitimate target in war. If you don't...

    The Truth About The So-Called War On Terror

    Terrorism is a technique, not an ideology. People who engage in 'terrorism' have few other reasonable means to wage war, generally. Ergo, to be at war with 'terrorism' is to be at war with anyone opposing us who is without reasonable means to wage war i.e. with tanks and planes, etc. Or, for...

    Hey, why only build walls at the Rio Grande?

    So it's all right if I shoot the first Cuban I see floating toward me in Florida? They're not citizens and they get royal treatment as do an assortment of crooks and mass murderers whenever we think it in 'our interest'. Besides they're quite willing to stay in their own countries, believe me...

    Hey, why only build walls at the Rio Grande?

    C'mon, be honest, it's an argument you have no answer to.

    Hey, why only build walls at the Rio Grande?

    Actually, Wisconsin is a hotbed of White Supremacists, you're right. But I'm not the one living in an area where almost everyone thinks a fence ought to be put up, you are. But somehow you find the grit to object when WE up here want to keep YOU guys out. Explain that to me B.C. Joe. Oh, and...

    Hey, why only build walls at the Rio Grande?

    Gee, I wonder who would want RACISM taken off the table? Can you identify a Mexican when you see him?

    The Truth about Freedom, American-style

    Well, I'm not about to run from one. This country's got to wake up and smell the coffee.

    The Truth about Freedom, American-style

    LOL! Try again, G-man. I'm thinking I didn't get much of a response because NO ONE THINKS THERE'S A PROBLEM. Perhaps you should tell me what YOUR freedom has in store for ME, Mr. MudPerson, because, as far as I can tell, we Americans believe in 'my way or the highway'. And pretty often it's not...

    The Truth about Freedom, American-style

    OK, try this. This obsession with 'Freedom' without any sense of the other's interests and the other's legitimate claim to them, is essentially sociopathic. It's pathological. I would be surprised if that didn't insight some emotional crisis in those so afflicted. Meanwhile the carnage and...

    The Truth about Freedom, American-style

    When I say Freedom means never having to care about the other guy, I mean that as an explanation of a lot of our actions, probably the most important is our going to war, because THAT'S the ultimate 'not caring about the other guy' situation. You see? Where else, except for a few backwoods...

    Hey, at least somebody's awake out there. Maybe if I beef it up a little more.

    Why I Shop At Wal-mart Despite My Progressive Politics

    "High production, especially in places like China, comes at a really high price for those who do the producing." And yet just TRY taking away their sweatshops. The key question is, are they better off? They'll tell you YES. "...low, low prices tell me one of two things, something's fishy about...

    The Truth about Freedom, American-style

    C'mon now, there's got to be a cowboy out there willing to go toe to toe on this! Don't tell me I've stumbled on Wuss Central. Aren't you Red state types going to tell me how good and great we are, Christian even? What's this silence all about? Silent assent? Are you telling me you're not...

    The Truth about Freedom, American-style

    It's hard to understand why foreigners don't get it. We've acted it out every chance we've had, all over the globe. And with the Fourth coming up, it's important to say it. To us Freedom's simple, it means... never having to care about the other guy. End of story. Why's it take a couple of...
