I'd prefer it if you kept posting crap of this nature actually, although it would be nice if you could stop sulking.

Also, dont insult clocker by putting him in the same boat as you. Your the one who consistently replies to my posts with childish insults motivated by personal dislike.

You'll notice clocker and I can vehemently disagree on one thread but we don't carry the bad feeling through to the next one. We also tend to stick to the topic at hand.

Its called maturity, and yes I am being purposefully condescending here, its very appropriate considering your last post.

Actually, I am just off my model post, my conclusion you are free to disagree with and it can be discussed.

1. Established my perspective, mentioning pertinent postives and negatives relevant to the topic.

2. Acknowledged the pressure that Bush is under due to his religion and constituants.

3. Stated the the consequences of his actions.

4. Concluded that the "cons" outweighed the "pros".

5. Proposed a solution.

6. Failed to resort to rhetoric by calling anyone a "babykiller".

I'm feeling a little bit supirehyor, at the moment.

Wooah! Hold your horses!! No one called anyone a babykiller

The problem with JPauls argument was highlighted by showing that killing children could be justified if it was taken to its logical conclusion.

For what its worth (take a cheap shot here if you want j2k4) I actually liked your post for all the reasons you stated. Unfortunately its not typical of the anti-evilbagpuss brigade. (Woe is me! )

I was actually talking about Myfiles, but really just to point out how exactly a discussion can tranform into "quibbles", post dissections and distortions.

I am medically not allowed to join a brigade because of back problems.

Anyway, I am being taunted by the worm at the bottle of my tequila bottle and I need to go teach that boy some manners&#33;

Wow, I actually meant that I was feeling up a little Eeyore. Good clean fun&#33;

[ShockAndAwe^i^]

Wow, this was a great thread to read&#33;
I love it&#33;&#33;
JPaul, you are excellent my friend&#33;
I thought you said you weren&#39;t ever gonna join us?
Glad you have&#33;&#33;&#33;

You guys have hashed it out pretty good, so I&#39;m not going to comment on it except to say that I thought it had more to do with the US&#39;s soverignty.
I really haven&#39;t paid too close attention to the news today as I bought a new comp with a VIA mainboard and I&#39;m in an exceptionally good mood&#33;

What I wanna know is - Why are we sending troops to liberia??
Reallly, I&#39;m not kidding.
Have any of you ever played the board game called RISK?
It just seems we&#39;re spreading our forces out a little thin.

BTW, I am a Risk Master&#33;&#33;

Oh, one more thing, I don&#39;t have a spell checker installed just yet, so your gonna have to put up with my spelling.

EBP-

Your post was apropos of what, exactly?

Your name was undeniably absent from my post-you seem to have taken offence at this absence, and again are posting accusations of insults so as to be insulting yourself.

I would never insult Clocker (and he knows it) nor Hobbes, who you apparently have no affection for (nor urge to defend) as he has called you on the carpet in the past for your peculiar type of churlishness.

I do not sulk-anyone here will tell you.

I am likewise "aces" at sticking with the subject.

I have no time to waste "disliking" you EPB, though I have spent some of it disagreeing with you.

Now, if you will kindly excuse me, I must console Hobbes, as the fact you failed to mention him in your attempt to chide me has upset him greatly.

Shock-

The greatness will no doubt continue, as we now have our world renamed and stand at the dawn of a new age", as it were.

In light of this, why don&#39;t you start a new thread on the Liberian question? B)

I hereby laud a sterling example of what constitutes a worthwhile post; Hobbes-I salute you-you provide a lesson for us all.

I am (as ever) astounded by your astuteness.
