Sorry, Bahu, for using your post to make a point. But, drmiler just gave me the opportunity, so I jumped on it.

Show me where in that sentence where I insulted you. You didn't insult me. You insulted Bahu, calling him "ignorant" for his point of view on the Iraq debaucle. You have yet to make any kind of point regarding his post, other than insulting him and responding to me pointing out your bad habit

And you should most certainly stay out of other peoples arguements. And again, Are you the only person here allowed to step into others' arguments? I think not. You start throwing stones, you better watch your own glass house. I don't care if you're swearing or not. You still just continually

I completely agree with Bahu. I see it as a kind of baby steps. For every step forward in Iraq (schools, elections, ??), there are two steps backwards. The right wing spin machine only posts the forward steps, while completely ignoring the backward steps. I consider the backward steps to be the predominant steps, because of a few reasons: 1. We are no safer now than before the US invasion of Iraq, which was one goal. 2. The Iraq

"The news from Iraq is getting *more ignorant" by the day"!! And you're buying into it. What does this say to you about your intelligence level? This is exactly the kind of nastiness I was referring to, drmiler, in another thread. You don't debate issues. You just insult the poster. I wil

feel like I'm arguing in a schoolyard! Not far from it, it seems. Very frustrating. I'm just finally reading this thread, and it's yet another repeat (no offense, Kingbee) of how these rightie JU's support Americans torturing Iraqis in the name of The War Against Terrorists, and get all aghast wh

I have yet to be convinced that marriage is a right, period. So until I am, I stand on my original point, gays have no right to marry. No-one does. I don't understand. Are you saying that you don't believe in the institution of marriage at all? Also, I find it pretty disengenuous to e

The gift of articulation/debating is one part knowing how to say what you mean, and one part knowing when to just keep your mouth shut Point well taken. I apologize, sincerely.

No....the Supreme court defined marriage as Constitutional. The Constitution does not say it directly, but it is included in Amendment Nine and to some extent in Amendment Ten. Thank you, DH, for clearing that up. I've not had time to find it in the Constitution, and I know that marriage wasn't ex

So... you're abandoning your unsupported blanket judgement that Conservatives at JU make unsupported blanket judgements about Liberals who don't make unsupported blanket judgements? Talk about righty spin........ Oh migod, this is really exactly what I see right wingers do all the time, both here

Reply to Liberals vs Conservatives in Politics JoeUser Forums

So far, this is exactly what I see. Any liberal viewpoint is immediately pounced upon by the conservatives here with a nasty condescension, calling liberals a bunch of names, like "loony" or "luddite" or "misinformed" or "ignorant", even going so far as to call people traitorous, which is absurd. And, what's with the "luddite" thing anyway? That one has me totally confused. <img src="http://images.stardock.com/JU/smiles/Hmm.gif" border=0 ALIGN="ab

BOTH scenarios are well within the realistic reach of a government that requires ID checks for "free" travel within the city. The staunch support that you and other Republicans show for increasing scrutiny to prove one's innocence underscores whyl, as a vehement opponent of the left, I do not find a home in the GOP. </TA

YOUR the one who couldn't be more wrong if you tried! Saddam's killing had NOT stopped prior to us going in! Proven fact that the no-flys were not working! Or have you conveniently forgotten they were shooting at our planes? And just an FYI...Saddam was NOT allowing weapons inspectors back in. So that kinda shoots you theories in

Uhm, no, we are killing the insurgents who are killing Iraqi citizens who dare apply to be policemen, or innocent civilians who happen to be in the wrong place at the wrong time. Big freaking difference, thought I'd point that out to you. Well, thank you for pointing that out. I guess our bombs

Little_whip, why are you so judgmental? What is it about rights for gays which would possibly affect you and your life? What skin is it off your back if gays have the civil rights they are fighting for? I agree with Latour. The Constitution calls marriage a civil right. It's only religion and self righteous believers that are trying to limit the civil rights of gays. In fact, this is very much an issue of equal protection under the law fo

I wish people would remember that bush lied about the WMD's, that it was all over the internet that the Niger documents were forgeries before we invaded Iraq, and therefore the bushies knew it was a lie, but advanced the lie anyway . I wish people would remember that we armed saddam during the Iran/Iraq war because he was our buddy. I wish people would remember that Cheney was shaking saddam's hand a few years before we invaded
