You know - the only thing that could ever draw me or anyone |
|
like that is that goddamn war. You know that - right??
SO - What a weird collection we really are.
But in the bigger sense we are all the same - A feeling for humanity, for the larger picture morality - we are all the same now. Libertarians - you know?? War - it is
The great equalizer - so to speak.

1. I equate Libertarians with celery. |
|
I don't care if they're a few mixed in the porridge but I don't want them highlighting the recipe or dominating the flavor.

a difficult time dealing with things, as you might imagine.

7. and that excuse has been used by various posters for weeks now.. |
|
when this question has been brought up.. And guess what, other people also have family serving, and other people have lost loved ones, and other people have lost loved ones etc etc etc.
However, this is a pattern of incoherent paranoid rants and after reading them for weeks im finally asking, as others have before me, how long its going to go on...hate to be mean, but ya know,its gettin old.

13. Well, I think that's a pretty heartless thing to say. Maybe you would |
|
act "incoherent" and "paranoid" if you went to sleep every night not knowing whether your child survived his day.
All you have to do is put him on ignore if you don't have the self restraint to avoid clicking on his threads.
See how easy that is?

15. no its not heartless... |
|
everyone has a cross to bear, and everyone has issues that they are dealing with.
Funny, a certain mother lost her son, decided to run agenst the Speaker of the House and half of DU vilifies her.
These incoherent posts have been going on for weeks and are a joke on the site that shant be named..Im just to the point of asking, well, whats the point.. I am SO SORRY he has a son in Iraq, but ya know, A LOT of people have sons and daughters in Iraq and they dont go all tinfoily on here...

18. This made me think... |
|
"act "incoherent" and "paranoid" if you went to sleep every night not knowing whether your child survived his day"
Welcome to life as a parent of a child living in impoverished and "economically depressed" US cities. Hell, welcome to life as a parent. If you don't go to sleep every night a little bit paranoid that your child won't survive the day, then you probably don't have a child. Now, that level of anxiety might go up if your child is living or serving in a "high risk" zone, but even with the protected, nurturing environment most parents create for their toddlers, that fear is still there in the back of their minds...

6. I guess I am going for a record. |
|
I am pretty fear motivated.
Aren't you??
Maybe you have nothing to fear.
Joe
I think most people understood just fine.

14. I understand that your living in a paranoid world. |
|
I understand you are living in cold war mentality of mutual destruction. You think something is going to happen in the middle east and suddenly there will be mushroom clouds across the midwest.
You keep posting these gloom and doom prognostications. attacking Iran next week, Iran set to strike, Bush and his evil empire!...
yeah its going to happen, but it will be small and well timed.. this is all a chess game with multiple players <turkey, russia, and china>..

16. Oh no - I had an opnion Turkey would strike. |
|
I have no idea about Iran - never did.
Mushroom clouds - what the hell you talking about?
I think - my kid is going to get hurt soon - that is all. And if you ever read what I said in the past I know the days he needs to careful about. It is that "witch" thing in the slavic part of my blood - maybe. And if I am wrong about this - he will walk away soon - and that is much, much better.
Two times - we got bulletins -and I knew what was coming. First time I said nothing - just made sarcastic comments. Second time - more serious - I sent the draft to the Mods, cause I didn't know what to do with it.
Not this time.
Watch the north in Iraq - cause this is going to blow. And that doesn't mean we "win" or lose anything - just means a lot of kids are about to die. That IS what I really care about.
Nothing more.

17. well certain parts of the media have said northern Iraq will be a hot zone... |
|
hell, the clash from Turkey could have been predicted for 2 or 3 years.. So I dont credit your slavic moonbattery for that prediction.

20. You don't get it - I have feelings for my kid - those are feelings. |
|
That I understand a war- that is upbringing - learning.
I read the stuff - sometimes - we get out of the brigade - that is not a feeling -that is a holy shit moment of the most objective kind - if I am going to speak of it. You know??
It is like - I can seperate morality from technique. I can do that in a way. ANd I can seperate feeling from the objective situation.
Anyway - what happens to me personally is likely to be totally different than the overall.
Got it.
