    Ramp it up all you want Mr. Intellectual but I do take off points for waffling and ad hominems. What got you all bent out of shape about a simple question anyway? I thought you might have had something going there for ya for a little while but you snapped.

    I am not trying to turn this into a pissing contest...I think that I clearly distinguished between my comments about the current administration, and my rhetotical comments about any candidate's need, in my opinion, to not piss off the world from the git-go.

    I know I am new to this board, but it sure seems like sniping from the peanut gallery is much more prevalent here than other places I have been.

    Well i just jumped in when the argument turned to a debate on grammar and speaking. Thats usually already at the peanut gallery level.

    Which I what I wanted to discuss with you in the first place. Sometimes you just can't make the whole world happy. Radical Islam apparently wasn't real happy with the US before Bush ever took office. So unhappy in fact that they killed many soldiers and citizens.

    I have never suggested that we even bother to TRY to make the whole world happy.

    I happen to believe there is a better way than the confrontational arrogant path chosen by the current administration.

    Would the negotiations between WJC and KJI be an example of such non-confrontational, non-arrogant path?

    I hope you're right---I just haven't ever seen it work with this bunch and while we pussy footed around they murdered us. I got tired of watching that.

    You know Dillo, you do exactly the same thing with me. You take absolutely inane positions, or parts of a post, that are totally irrelevent and go off on tangents. And when these things are explained to you, you get all pernicky and go off on other tangents. When people finally lose patience, you get this "what did I do?" crap going. I used to think you were a wind up merchant, but on second thoughts maybe you're just not the brightest bulb in the socket.. That may seem like an ad hominem, but it's been building...

    I thought MFM was being pretty up front... That being said, your subsequent post re Islam re Bush would have been the best starting point instead of the other nonsense. That aside, I thought Clinton dealt with it best he could. And if you look at the number of deaths on his watch compared to Bush, they don't even compare. That being said, I blame the radicals than either president in that they caused the actions. What I find more interesting is the "why?"
