Hello Everyone !
Bobchai writes: Geoff is a newcomer [...] My first post to this newsgroup was on July 6th, 2004 -- the better part of five years ago: http://preview.tinyurl.com/dl8mkz What was that you were saying? who is all bombastic about right wing politics. Why is it "bombast" when I express a conservative point of view in a calm and reasoned tone -- but not when liberals hysterically attack me for it, insult me, threaten my life, and wish painful death on me simply for being a Republican? Perhaps you'd be kind enough to explain that to me. And please type slowly; you know how dumb we conser- vatives are. I'm not a philosophically complex person, so I may need help when it comes to understanding the sophistry involved. If he just got rid of his political posturing, he might be worthy of some worthwhile childfree discussion. Why is it "posturing" with me but not with you and your fellow liberals? Other than that, what more do you want to know? I can't speak for the other poster, but since you ask, something *I'd* like to know is whether you think it might be a wee bit hypocritical of you to ride my ass for fueling a crossposted thread, and then turn around and post to it twice yourself.

Because George Bush really, really screwed up badly. By doing so, he put such a massive quantity of political capital into his enemies' bank account that nothing a conservative can say is listened to, and nothing a liberal can say is wrong. Content is irrelevant. Keep your head down, because everything you say just invites abuse. No matter what you do, you can't win, so don't even bother to play. Bide your time, husband your resources and don't strike until the moment is right. Right now, the moment is not right. You know, for an American Idol guy you speak pretty good. What's with that? |

Content is irrelevant. Only to the tendentious, the shrill, and the intellectually undisciplined. And I eat those people for metaphorical breakfast every day.

Bide your time, husband your resources and don't strike until the moment is right. Right now, the moment is not right. "Just go with the flow," in other words, "and you won't get hurt." Defeatist nonsense. The Left certainly didn't follow that advice during the Reagan era, in the wake of the Carter debacle, so why would I?

Bluuuue Rajah Bluuuuue@Rajah. writes: Would you please post a link to the message where your life was threatened? No. That's a hoop, and I don't do hoops. But I'll provide you with what you need to find examples your- self, giving you the benefit of the doubt and assuming that you're truly interested. Google my name in con- junction with "Pete" in alt.support.childfree. Why would you immediately be so skeptical as to make such a request?
