I have to admit, I tend to just not read his posts anymore, despite the fact that we seem to agree on a few issues (I think, anyway). They just seem like he wrote a normal post, then ran it through a thesaurus a few times.
Plus he tends to write two/three/four posts in a row. I’d understand that if he’s just forgotten something he needs to add (I myself frequently forget things, and make a new post) but it seems like in every thread he’s in he’ll make his point, then make a new post with his cite, then another new post with a non sequitur, etc.
I disagree with him completely, but I think you guys are being way too harsh. He’s not a troll, or a sock. He actually tries to argue and make his points. And he’s usually polite enough about it. I’m not the style police - if I can’t understand what he’s saying, I’ll just ignore his message. If I can, I’ll respond to it.
You can also play the fun, “Guess the exact composition of tonight’s alaricthegoth drug cocktail” game.
Lemur, if he bothers you so much, use the feature in your control center we’re not allowed to discuss. And Alaric is people. He’s neither pig nor elephant.
Some of us like the crackpots, and it’s entertaining to prod them with a stick and light them on fire.
All I can say is, Who does he think the Office of the Special Inspector General for Iraq Reconstruction, who issued this report, is. A Democratic spy? A whistle blowing, self-sacrificing low level operative?
