It was really a pretty simple question, if you can take yourself beyond your self righteousness to answer it.
Correct, I will not. What I wrote above was a pretty simple summary of why I won't answer your question, if you can take yourself beyond your self righteousness to refrain from positing it.

That said, I now realize I used too many polysyllabic words, thereby causing your eyes to glaze over and a bit of spittle to trickle down your lip. Forget it then: I will not answer your question, therefore you have free reign to assume that you have "won".

All hail King Lowing, master of debate.
I didn't know that the question I asked was that tough to dodge, but ok, it might be best if you don't answer it.
Yes lowing, it's a toughie, you got me again! I lose, you win!
Good job, lowing, we're all rootin' for you!

The key word is PROOF, not a bunch of conspiracy theory web sites.

Do you really need me to show you proof that 911 and Spain and London was carried out by Islamic terrorists. I mean the fact that they took responsibility is really NOT good enough for you??

Here is a thought, we all agree that the terrorist hate Bush, right? then tell me, if Bush is hated so much by them, why they themselves, are not EXPOSING HIM in the terror plot against the 911 targets. I mean what better way to destroy Bush than for the terrorists themselves coming out and explaining everything BUSH did for his part in the planning of the attacks.
Ok, I'll try to stay cool like The ship builder does with you, so I do know that those attacks were hand made by terrorists, but the responsibility falls totally on GWB.  Do you understand the difference.  The guy is an asshole and a drunk, took awful decisions in every issue since he stole 2000 election to democrat Al Gore, then he stole another election.  He fucked up in the war in Iraq, he cut taxes, he blew the budget, he almost broke US economy and the people is paying the price for his faults, he's a major danger to America and the World and should be impeached.  If you think Clinton lied to grand jury once, lets imagine how many lies would have to say this asshole if he were impeached.  He didn't planned the attacks, besides he can't plan anything.  He dances as Cheney moves the stick in his ass.
NO I don't know the difference. If it is all Bush's fault, please explain all the terror attacks against the US during the entire 8 years of the Clinton administration, before Bush came to office. Hell, evem before that with Pan Am and the barracks bombing in what 83??

The rest of this is emotional opinion and I won't touch it.

Well the USSR as an ally played ball all through the war to defeat the common enemy, or is that not the case, I don't remember reading anything to the contrary.


to answer your question it is called personal responsibility, they were ordered out and did not go.


In our system, the state govt. is the first line of defense in its own affairs. It is up to the state govt. to provide first response action. and ask for assistance when needed. I agree that FEMA was ill prepared for this, however, the people of New Orleans bare the greater responsibility by NOT doing what was ordered. If they had  taken care of themselves like they were supposed to, ALL levels of govt. might have been able to handle the crisis far more effectively. As it turned out, because of the residents and local and state govt. inaction in the beginning, the first priority HAD to be search and rescue, then body recovery of all the people that broke the law, instead of effective clean up. They had a weeks notice, bubbalo......PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY!!!!

Please read the following carefully, lowing.

I have no complaint against immaturity or insults in general. I often employ insults myself. When an insult is lobbed at me, I can appreciate it if it is creative, apropos, witty, or contains an original turn of phrase. Heretofore yours haven't qualified as such.

That said, lowing, I think you're doing a tremendous job. Both BF2S and America are very proud of you!

Serge: Lowing's schtick is this:

- he demands proof and sources for every statement that disagrees with his own viewpoint.
- he posts his own opinions - always completely free of sources or facts.
- if he is asked to provide sources and facts to back up his statements, he sarcastically says "GOD it's just SO obvious to EVERYONE, why should I provide sources, are you that stupid?!?!?!?" or something similar. He then asks YOU another question, to distract people from the fact that he doesn't back up his opinions, and puts YOU on the defensive.
- if he feels he has lost an argument, he will distract everyone from that fact by inventing some other way to prove that you are an idiot, and he will defensively bring this up again and again until you get bored of arguing with him.

Lowing is the ultimate troll. His communication strategy is very similar to that employed by North Korean negotiators.

He is insecure and needs constant validation, either from himself or from others. Serge, I would advise to give up attempting to discuss anything with him. Instead, just try to make him think he's doing a "good job". We should clap for him, and encourage him, just as we clap and cheer for Special Olympics athletes.

The above BS is what you want ME to show links to dis prove. I don't think so. The burden of proof is most definitely on him, not me.

It doesn't. Personal responsibilty comes to into play when you aretold of a level 5 hurricane headed your way that has a 160 MPH punch and YOU yourself ignore the warning. I guess the govt. is responsibly for the 55 or deaths when MT. St. Helens erupted as well. They were also told to leave. I cite a Mr Harry Truman as an example. http://seattlepi.nwsource.com/mountsthe … ry11.shtml

No, at some point you HAVE to expect that people will obey the laws. Do not blame the govt. for this bubbalo. These people refused to leave, at their own peril as it turned out.

Yet domestic spending under the Bush administration has increased and overseas spending under the Bush administration has also increased, massively. Tax revenues under Bush have also dropped by $600 billion. That's why the US have record levels of budget deficit under Bush - whereas under Clinton there was a surplus.

Is it the spending you don't like, or the taxation?

Because Bush is doing the spending, but without the tax revenue to pay for it.
