Hmmm…Uday and Qusay, known rapists and murderers, as well as torturers versus Tony Snow, a press secretary for the White House.
Man, they seem equal in the evil department to me!
Nice analogy!
Perhaps you could dig up the Snow family’s email addy’s and send them your thoughts. I’m sure they’d appreciate it.
Read the fucking exchange, douchebag. You’re making yourself look stupid. Let’s follow the chain, shall we, starting with you:
Then me:
Notice I did not quibble with the characterization of “rejoicing,” even though it wasn’t the precise word I had used.
Now Frank speaks:
Do you see what’s going on yet? Frank is either quibbling with semantics at this point or is under the impression that I was expressing regret for some other post beside the one that both you and I had just been talking about. My response to Frank
Do you get it now? I wasn’t “weaselling,” I was clarifying that the statement Frank was quoting was one and the same as the post YOU referred to as rejoicing…a characterization which I did not object to. Is this penetrating? I was trying to make it clear that there was no other post and that what Frank was quoting from WAS the post which I was expressing regret for. Are we clear now?
I thought you were dropping out of this thread. What happened, liar?
Perhaps you will be so kind as to offer me a list of approved opinions that I am permitted to express without offering a direct insult to you. See, generally, when I wish to insult someone, I usually do it straight up. I’m not tricky enough to insult somebody by defending somebody else, that’s just a bit too abstract for a country boy.
I think Brett Favre’s being kind of a dick. OK with you that I think that? I think Hydrox are vastly better than Oreos. Nothing personal! Perhaps you a have a list of people I can defend when they say something you disapprove of, so that you are not personally insulted.
Really, Frank, that’s nuts. I didn’t insult you, I didn’t even directly address you until you asked me questions. I sure as* hell * didn’t start calling you a cocksucker!
It was just a question. You’re the one who brought up the idea that certain people deserve to suffer, so there is no hijack. And it’s not hypocritical to hold conflicting views. You argue passionately that all humans should be treated equally. And then you blithely tell us that some deserve to suffer. Doesn’t make sense to me.
No, I think Frank is saying he doesn’t believe you when you say you weren’t literally rejoicing nor that you sincerely regret it. And even if he isn’t, I am. I’ve seen you post this kind of shit too often to think it’s just you shooting your mouth off without thinking anymore.
You are mindlesslessy, even slavishly, defending DtC’s view. A disgusting view.
I guess I don’t see why you are not the equivilant of Herr Goebbels.
Now you’re changing your line of attack. Why not just admit you were wrong and you misunderstood something?
Frank didn’t say he didn’t believe my sincerity. He said “what about THIS post,” as if it was a separate post from the one you characterized as “rejoicing.”
Not at all, and I stand by it. You can ask Frank what he actually meant; perhaps it is as you say, but that doesn’t change my position. You’ll have to take that up with him.
I’d consider that the post I quoted was “rejoicing”; I would not consider that your characterization of it in later posts was anything more than back-pedaling.
Does that help?
Be that as it may, how is that an insult to you?
Did I say “DtC has a point, and Frank is a dick”? No, don’t think so. Did I say “DtC is a bit vexed, he’ll calm down, and, oh, Frank is a yellow-eyed pizzle sucking Aggie”? Not as I recall.
So absent any direct reference to your sorry ass, without even *mentioning * you, how in the bleeding gums of Og did I insult you?
No, because it has no relationship to reality or to what you’ve actually said. If you understoood that my first post was one and the same as the one Q.E.D. characterized as “rejoicing,” then why did you single it out and say it did not contain the word “rejoice?”
I AGREE that a couple of lines in my first post could be accurately characterized as “rejoicing.” As I said, those particular lines are the only ones I regret.
Well, if you were amongst sinners, saying you regret it would be good enough. But this is a tough room.
I’m starting to wonder if this “Minnesota nice” I keep hearing about is just bullshit. I sure don’t see much of it here.
It would be, indeed, if it were not Dio’s perennial habit to say nasty things and later “regret” them–only after being piled on for it, of course.
Why do you act so bewildered, elucidator? One is known by the company one keeps, after all. You are attempting to defend a leftist for his unacceptable views that a painful and suffering death are merely due retribution to his opponents; I am a leftist; I do not care to be associated with those views. How does it not insult me to imply that, as a leftist, I am also a holder of those views? Which you have! You have implied that all of us who feel strongly (in a negative way) about the Bush administration should feel that all members of the aforesaid should die a horrible and lingering death.
You have defended someone who has stated that.
I think anyone with any form of Obama in their location field is a fucking moron.
I’m not from Minnesota. I’m from the deep south.
You’re killing an ant with a grenade here, man. You just insulted a whole bunch of posters who haven’t done a thing to deserve it. Point the gun at me, ok.
In my opinion that sort o thing would be more usefully expressed in a sig. 
What the hell, I bet my sig offends far more folks.
