You're delusional.

And I eat those people for metaphorical breakfast every day.


And vain.

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.


"Just go with the flow," in other words, "and you won't
get hurt." Defeatist nonsense.


That's not even close to what I said. I said "bide your time and wait
for the right moment." If you can't see the difference between that and
"just go with the flow," you've got a reading comprehension problem. I
said one thing and you read something completely different. JEEZUSS!

The Left certainly didn't follow that advice during the Reagan era,


Go ahead then, knock yourself out by banging your head against a brick
wall. The stuff that you're trying to tar him with will eventually
stick, but not for a year or two, minimum. Go ahead and waste your
energy attacking a rolling tank with your bare fists, and see if I care.
But don't come crying to me when you break your hand.

in the wake of the Carter debacle, so why would I?


Because you seemed calm, cool and collected.

I needed to verify that you weren't a sock puppet for
a neo-con who's a *lot* meaner than you.


You only just encountered me. What makes you think you
have any idea how mean I am?

Not all conservatives are neocons. Contrary to popular
belief and careless usage, the terms aren't interchangeable.


What's a "hoop." Are you saying that I'm asking you to
give me somthing to screw you with?


No. I'm saying that you're asking me to go to a degree
of hassle that's unreasonable under the circumstances:

Jump through hoops (idiomatic): To put forth effort for
the sake of appearance or demonstration. "They really made
the salesman jump through hoops before buying anything."

Etymology: reminiscent of a circus animal performing tricks
by jumping through hoops.

In other words, I don't know you from Adam. You don't even
post under your actual name. Why should I care whether or
not you believe what I have to say?

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?
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

You know, for an American Idol guy you speak pretty good.

What's with that?


Whatever gave you the idea that I watch "American Idol"?


Oh, I saw the groups and thought you did it.

BTW, does *anyone* here watch American Idol?

I've never seen it.
