You assumed she hadn’t traveled, just as you assumed that all the mess in NOLA is the fault of GWB. Where does Bon Bon lack a sense of humankind? For someone that is sensitive to your own treatment by others, you sure lack any sense of decorum in your attacks on those you know absolutely nothing about..So one should travel the world to understand the complex issues facing the US and the world in general, but one not be in the military to understand what is happening in the war? I just want to be clear of this…

Eben may actually be SF Liberal, wearing another hat. Notice how they seem to agree with each other so much, so cuddly?

Nobody ever accused the Left of being original in thought or deed…

Ah the impenetrable condescension of a hawk.

PCD – individuals like you are the reason we are in this fix. Drop you in Baghdad and you’d be dead for supper. Drop you in Zimbabwe and I doubt you’d have ever seen so many black people congregated in one place after your lilly-white ass in your entire life.

You, old sport, are terminally doomed to the repetition of what those morons who gave you life taught you to believe. The arrogance of self-righteousness is YOURS and yours alone PCD (properly called dunce).

You, dear chap, are terminally stupid and termially arrogant.

Oh man, there is no hope of breaking through to any of these true believers.

Indeed not.

I’ve only just come to realise this hence the futility in responding for anything short of agreement with the Republican status quo invites slander or selective refute from nearly every resident member.

FOA is the only one who doesn’t go after the jugular from what I can see.

At least he’s a gentleman.

Where you’d refute my opinion of necessity peejz – you’d let someone with such obvious lack of a broad sense of humankind like BonBon goes unchecked. You can’t be oblivious to it.

#40-

BonBon?

The broader picture is so much more than you’ll ever be able to grasp. Had you not taken that road I’d not have followed you with my snow plow.

Don’t think you can insult with bonbons and not have it noticed.

I have no particular opinion of you other than to note that your nose is shoved so far up the arse of the establishment as you’ve learned it by rote that you simply spew the rhetoric taught you by those who instructed you.

God gave you (at least I assume He did) the ability for independent thought.

I suggest (after your thirty-one years in academia) you begin to use it for the ability to discern truth from fiction.

Hers (I assume she’s a “she”) shows an intractible stubbornness against seeing any view other than to say “oh I couldn’t agree with you more peejz”yet you let that fly as opinion with veracity at its core? If the opposing view made sense, she would probably agree with you, but as it is, you made a statement that is not based on fact. George Bush didn’t let NOLA down. The state and local government did. Our government reacted during the crisis, but not fast enough. From there, it is out of the feds hands..it is up to the local and state authorities to get the city going..the feds gave them the money. What blanket statement did she make? Show it to me and we can move on to that…until then, we were discussing NOLA..We were also discussing the war..

What exactly are you getting at with the lack of traveling? 

everyone shouldn’t take these discussions too seriously.
