Mike, we don't care WHAT Kagan says and, as we are not talking to Kagan, it is irrelevant anyway. How about YOU responding to the three (Sorry OT, not two) points that OT raised? Don't quote Kagan or some other talking head or pundit, give us YOUR response. Consistently OT has viewed the war in a pragmatic way that is a response to what he sees is going on. He does not quote people except to support his perspective. You have no perspective. You quote people and expect that quote to make your point for you. Why would anyone in their right mind debate a point that has consistently been proven wrong even if it is in a published media outlet? Kagan's bias is easy to see. He is a shill for the talking points of the administration. Demanding that we respond to him, when the facts and the hearings and the polls and the news and the people all agree that he is wrong, is simply absurd.

Why would you think that? As I stated above, we are not discussing anything with Kagan. Perhaps if YOU posed the question a response would be indicated.

Not really. He IS long winded, but he is ignoring all facts that don't agree with his point of view........now that I think about it, you and Mike and Steve and the rest of the neocons do the same thing. |
And you are not long winded?? I have set in on enough of commitee meetings to know you have more hot wind than a hot air balloon!

What is even worse you make less sense at the meetings than you do here!
You wouldn't know a fact if it slapped you in the face!

I cannot believe how incredibly stupid you are. I mean rock-hard stupid. Dehydrated-rock-hard stupid. Stupid so stupid that it goes way beyond the stupid we know into a whole different dimension of stupid. You are trans-stupid stupid. Meta-stupid. Stupid collapsed on itself so far that even the neutrons have collapsed. Stupid gotten so dense that no intellect can escape. Singularity stupid. Blazing hot mid-day sun on Mercury stupid. You emit more stupid in one second than our entire galaxy emits in a year. Quasar stupid. Your writing has to be a troll. Nothing in our universe can really be this stupid. Perhaps this is some primordial fragment from the original big bang of stupid. Some pure essence of a stupid so uncontaminated by anything else as to be beyond the laws of physics that we know. I'm sorry. I can't go on. This is an epiphany of stupid for me. After this, you may not hear from me again for a while. I don't have enough strength left to deride your ignorant questions and half baked comments about unimportant trivia, or any of the rest of this drivel. Duh.
