I’m not the one bullshitting, and you were trolling. But it didn’t make me mad. I wasn’t referring to your overall argument just the last few posts where you were playing around with my comment regarding how I wasn’t going to address individual points where you presented me with an option A or option B where both are insufficient explanations.

Seriously, you haven’t come up with a good argument yet. Your thinking is too black and white. None of your multiple choice options had any validity to them. You just aren’t thinking about the subject very deeply. You are trying a very superficial Marxian analysis that is pretty trite and deals entirely in stereotypes. ‘Either whitey was savior or oppressor.’, it’s you trying to paint it as one or the other. So no, I’m not even going to try and knock down your leftist Freshman 101 grievance theory straw man because it’s so wide off the mark that there isn’t even a point. You’re not even arguing against what I am saying. You’re arguing against the presupplied argument that you’ve already come up with answers for.

When you want to come out of your solipsistic little world and actually address what I am saying, then we’ll be able to have a discussion, but your smug superiority is entirely misplaced because your argument is so juvenile.

Oily Titz is at it again, and got another willing idiot to help her. Oily’s filed a “Temporary Restraining Order” against Secretary of Defense Gates and President Obama on behalf of Dr. Connie Rhodes, (soon to be ex) Captain, US Army. To quote the thread at [Democratic Underground](http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=132x8615970) (beware, Liberal cooties!),

Captain Rhodes is both a US army officer and a medical doctor, a flight surgeon. On May 15th of this year 501 brigade out of Fort Campbell, KY, currently stationed in Iraq, has requested a support of medical personal in Iraq. Two days ago, August the 23rd, an order was given through the chain of command via e-mail for Captain Rhodes to arrive in San Antonio TX, Fort Sam Houston for Tactical Combat Medical Care Course (TCMC) to be held from August 30th till September 4t and next day, on September the 5th to arrive in Fort Benning in Columbus GA for immediate deployment to Iraq for a period of one year and twelve days from September 5th, 2009 until September 17th 2010. Captain Dr. Connie Rhodes wants to serve her country and fulfill her tour of duty, however as a US army officer and a medical doctor she has severe reservations regarding legitimacy of Barack Obama as the Commander in Chief and repercussions of her service under his orders, particularly in light of mounting evidence of him having allegiance to other Nations and citizenship of Kenya, Indonesia and Great Britain.”**
> 
> The request is here, signed 25 August 2009, filed on 28 August 2009 in United States District Court for the Western District of Texas, San Antonio Division. Though it is such a cut and past job from the Cook case that the filing EVEN SAYS “United States District Court, Middle District of Georgia, Columbus Division” on it. Not to mention Dr. Orly hasn’t changed the “hes” to “shes” either.

(bolding mine) I hope she does refuse to deploy, and gets her ass thrown in jail. Or at the least, get a dishonorable discharge and then good luck paying off her medical school loans if she can’t find a job with that on her record. Cook lost his security clearances and therefore lost his job. Rhodes obviously didn’t keep up with what happened to him.

Birthers are really really stupid.

_Quadruple_ citizenship?

Wow, I didn’t even know it was possible to do that.

Only three. He’s not a citizen of the United States (in their deranged minds). Three’s quite an accomplishment though, give him credit!

You know, I just did a search for Stefan Cook and posted at the end. Now that I’m reading through the thread a bit, it did get derailed after I quit following the original thread. I should have started a new, all-purpose Oily Titz thread probably.

I cannot imagine how the Board of Governors of the California Bar can see Oily Taints on TV and not think about how incredibly low she is making their standards look.

Petition denied half an hour after submittal: she didn’t get it signed properly.

Given his political views, I think it’s more likely that he just saw this as a chance to air his political [del]idiocy[/del] than to actually get out of deployment.

Nitpick: only enlisted Soldiers can be dishonorably discharged. Officers are dismissed. This dismissal, like any sort of bad conduct/dishonorable discharge, severs any benefits.
