Quote of the day

I predicted the inevitability here... Iknow... it's akin to predicting the wetness of water or the blueness of the sky... nevertheless, from she who has become most quotable at Brutally Honest:

I also find it rather hypocritical for GW to call into question the invasion of Georgia on Russia's part, and yet it's somehow ok for us to invade Iraq? Do as I say, but not as I do!

Which makes bringing this back up all the more necessary:

This highlighted statement is an astonishing one. The clear implication is that what America did in going to war with Iraq is the moral equivalent of what Russia has done to Georgia.

...

In the situation in Georgia, a lawful, self-governing nation which respects human rights (and happens to be an ally of the United States) is under attack. In Iraq, we deposed one of the most wicked and cruel regimes of modern times. Saddam Hussein committed genocide against his own people; President Mikheil Saakashvili has not. As for the nature of the "invading" nations: one (the U.S.) was performing an act of liberation; the other (Russia) is attempting to crush a newly-liberated nation. As for the legal justification for the war: Russia has none; the United States, on the other hand, won unanimous approval in the United Nations for Resolution 1441, which stated that Iraq was in material breach of its obligations and warned Iraq of "serious consequences" (which all parties understood to mean war) for its continued violations. In addition, Iraq, unlike Georgia, had violated 16 U.N. Security Council Resolutions in the course of a dozen years.

The shallowness astounds. 

Seriously.

Logic? Logic?

say little britches. you have linked us to a very questionable source for your cut and paste opinion. Can you find anyone more reliable?

ps. I'm willing to get together with you. are you game?

Not the same as the US going into Iraq. Saddam ignored the UN for twelve years and the UN did nothing. He killed his own countrymen. He was a monster. How can you say it's the same as Russia?

This is a link to a site that you have been banned from due to your threats and vulger langauge. Even your history of comments, so vile, have been wiped off the record.

is there a reason you are so anti Christian? What did they ever so to deserve your ire?
have you ever read the Bible?

[*Rick - Name of commenter changed to protect the innocent and because I can.

A word of caution Fuquod. Posting under tim's name (with lower case t) is fraught with risk. The dude served in the USMC. The USMC has little tolerance for nimrods like yourself, especially a nimrod passing himself off as another marine. Capece?

I was kicked off the DPS because people like yourself, posting under assumed names, complained time and again, after my being there for nearly 10 years and doing the same things for the entire decade, about my confrontational manners. In other words, my getting in the face of people like yourself who are pathologically ignorant and diabolically deceitful.

Now, back to surfing porn Fuquod. And do be careful. Surfers like yourself do eventually trip up. Your time will come too. I guarantee it. Won't your congregation be surprised?

As to my reading the Bible... yes... numerous times... one of my favorite quotes... "Satan, get behind me"... ]

[Fuquod]

blame all you want, you were kicked off-no one else. you are sick and so unworthy of the domain name "Brutally honest."

"lying coward" would be more appropriate.

[*Rick - Name changed once again... you're definitely not my brother and he too would love to talk to you about using his name... love to...

I was banned for the same reason I'm banned at other sites... they can't handle in your face dissent, especially that dissent that can be buttressed with facts and substantiated with truth... and since we're talking about honesty... why not reveal what role you played in that banning... hmm?]

Please keep me in mind concerning this clown's identity when/if you find out Rick.

He tried posing as me!?!

He did indeed.... more proof that the guy's an idiot...

If we happen to find the clown, there'll be nothing left for you and me tim...

Mrs. BH will kick his a$$ with one hand tied behind her back...
