    Then what were you disagreeing with considering I said 'you process it' in my reply? What you just said completetly describes 'processing'.

    I disagreed because you said that we absorb opinions, with no preconceptions. The opinions we absorb filter through a partisan lens before they are internalized.
    And you ask me what I want this year
    And I try to make this kind and clear
    Just a chance that maybe we'll find better days
    Cuz I don't need boxes wrapped in strings
    And desire and love and empty things
    Just a chance that maybe we'll find better days

    There is a fine line between a worthless alcoholic and a functional alcoholic. I'm sure you're in the latter group :)

  • Hmm...personal attack. Go figure.

    El Kabong, I respect your point of view and appreciate the fact that you seem to give reasonable posts that dissent with your view the benefit of the doubt. All I was getting at is that you seem to post a lot of links and assume that that equates to credibility.


    If you were in any way showing respect then none us of would have had a problem in the first place. We give links to info, you can decide for yourself how credible you deem them. If you have a problem with the sources then point them out and explain why.
    If you want to tell people the truth, make them laugh, otherwise they'll kill you.

    Where did I say 'with no preconceptions'. Everyone has those and I've never stated otherwise

    One man's "information" is another man's propoganda. It's all about who's on the defensive.

    I wouldn't call it bold. I would say that happens all the time, from all spectrums.

    no i don't. i never hesitate to give my opinion on things, granted i may post articles to start a thread off (like so many here do) but it's not like i give the link and nothing else.

    and how can i give reasonable posts if i just post links and don't have any original thoughts and all my thoughts, er, opinions are based on links to fringe websites?
    standin above the crowd
    he had a voice that was strong and loud and
    i swallowed his facade cos i'm so
    eager to identify with
    someone above the crowd
    someone who seemed to feel the same
    someone prepared to lead the way

    Why are people fighting? I haven't come to any conclusions on 9/11, but this is very interesting evidence. I don't get what the big deal is. You should always question everything. If not you're a tool.

    I didn't say you ONLY post links. I merely said links do not equate to facts. I actually enjoy reading your posts that are based on opinion rather than linked to someone's articles.

    If you could please mop up all your drool with a stick of intelligent thought it would be expected (and appreciated).

    I respond to stupidity with stupidity. It's the only thing you can probably handle, and actually worth my time. Never underestimate the value of a humorous approach.

    If I were to grab a beer/dinner with any celebrity/athlete/politician, I'd seriously choose AJ. One angry Pole-ock to another, I think he'd be an interesting guy to talk to.
