“far sighted”… as in unable to see what was right in front of him? Ok.

a farsighted leader with nearsighted tendencies-just pick an event, incident or situation and go anywhere you want from there.

I haven’t taken time to read all of the previous postings. I should not be surprised if some one else has already spewed the epithet “turd blossom”. Or if some one else has already pointed out that these jerks don’t care anymore for history than I do for lutefisk. This is more smoke to reinenforce their tried beliefs that they are actually doing something good. The sad part is not that they believe their own tripe, But that there is someone else in the next generation who will believe it also

I am confident it will judge the 43rd president as a former male-cheerleader, alcoholic, and war-coward not worthy of the great office he twice stole.

romans 13. the verse. 13 being one of the US’ favorite numbers. Romans. a civilization in love with strong men and war. roman/greek. the style of architecture openly express in DC. the united states is not a democracy. these cowards use religion as a tool to herd sheep into giving up their lives to THEIR god. we dont know who they really worship. remeber that.

Far-sighed? No wonder he can’t see the evidence that’s clearly right under his nose.

You still around?

Good point about LBJ and Nixon (although the whole quitting / resignation thing kinda sealed their fates, history does see the good they did more clearly now).

Now there you all go again. Giving air time to something KRove has said. What an utterly vapid waste of time. Once one has taken the garbage out, one doesn’t discuss it on the Metro or at the lunch counter. One simply returns from work expecting to see the empty barrels waiting in the street.

Farsighted? Well, maybe he just needs a new prescription to cure his tunnel vision?

jake – i have asked you several questions on this thread that have not been answered – i take it that i am on ‘the list’?

By: Jake D.

Jake D. — Sun, 02 Sep 2007 23:31:27 +0000

If anyone NOT on the “Ignore List” still wants to discuss the thread topic, or even why personal attacks and/or refusing to answer my questions (even if you think they are “demented” or “a bunch of inane non-sequiturs”) are deserving of the “Ignore List” in the first place, let me know.

thanks, tripmaster – if you’re on thelist, does that spell trouble now at the airports? for the record, i don’t think jake is a bad guy. i’m probably naive for imagining that a serious debate with the pro-war crowd will lead anywhere other than a dead end.

Cazzie Russell sez:

My last chance to answer your question, Jake? Or else what? I donâ€™t win the toaster oven? Sorry, amigo. Youâ€™ve followed what at first seemed to be an honest attempt to debate an issue with a bunch of inane non-sequiturs.

Heh heh. Let me be the first to welcome you to The List â„¢, Cazzie…well said.^_^

Shakey Jake isn’t interested in honest debate…he only appears that way to try to suck you into answering his increasingly demented questions, and when you decline to continue playing his absurd game, he uses that as an excuse to add you to The List â„¢. Of course, if you manage to ask him a question he can’t answer (as have I, among several others here), that will fast-track you onto The List â„¢ as well. And, of course, if you tell him what you actually think of him, he’ll interpret that as a personal insult (which it usually is) and put you on The List â„¢ as well…never mind that before Shakey started this whole “ignore list” nonsense, he was more insulting than anyone else…Shakey doesn’t let a little thing like hypocrisy stand in the way of his idiocy.

Again, welcome to the club, Cazzie. Membership on Shakey’s “list” is considered a badge of honor hereabouts. ^_^

Far-sighted – must mean he needs reading glasses – hey that explains why Bush never reads anything unless it’s in big print.

>You ignore the fact that we started
> the war/occupation in Iraq,
>a pretty significant distinction
>if youâ€™re going to haul WWII

Leave Jake-and-Bake alone, hes “old” and he can’t remember that hitler declared war on us, and that japan attacked us…which is, uhm, pretty different than Iraq, which never initiated any hostile acts again us, or any country we had any mutual defense treaties with…
