Erick.......How dare you?

Publius — 10/15/2004 3:06:58 PM (archived)

To suggest the "War on Terrorism" is bogus is like suggesting the "War on Drugs" is bogus.

Next, you might even suggest that words have meaning and that concepts have validity. Why, I can even picture someone like you saying that terrorism is a tactic, a methodology and not any special group or nation.

To suggest that terrorism is a way of opposing government by the use of intimidation, but is also factually a way in which a government seeks to maintain control of the people by intimidation would be to inject a rational examination of the subject.

The last thing conservatives want you to do is to turn on a light in a dark room.

How dare you attack the holy of holies? You might even suggest that there are over 140 named terrorist groups in the US according to the State department. Don't you dare lable Christian Identity movements as terrorist--we all know you have to be an Arab to be one of those.

      - I have noticed the same thing. ALL of the ESP, UFO, and other occult freaks are LEFTWINGERS. I am sure that there are exceptions, but the majority of Occultists that I have come across are VERY Left. (n/t) - David F Mayer - 10/15/2004 9:43:49 PM

        On the other hand, people who reject any cosmology or biology that doesn't depend on a literal interpretation of the Bible are right-wing in their politics. - Mary Anne - 10/16/2004 12:42:47 PM
