Oops. No, probably I confabulated a word again. It's not quite
dyslexia. More lack of attention.

Hey - effwit moron. Care to enlighten the world on how "liberals" want to

cede
"sovereignty"? Wait - are you one of those ****wits that's convinced

there's a
Trilateral Commission plotting a OneWorld future?

Geeze....


I'll take brain cells for $1,000, Alex.

The answer is:
You'd think the right could come up with someone with a couple of
functional brain cells...


Ding! Who are the ones that aren't cross-posting their political views to
recreation groups in Usenet?

;-)

Unless you're representin' the Libertarians now, Timmay ;-) you're gonna have
to disown him.


He's not one of mine, whatever that is. I have no problem disowning the views of
folk on either side of the isle when they start drooling. I also feel no need to
admonish them or rush to their aid after they've stuck their foot firmly in
their mouth.

Luckily for most of of us non-Americans, ( at least without oil), your aim
is about on a par with your intelligence.


HEAR, HEAR! Thank you Mr. Connor.

Op --an ugly Amerikan liberal, I think--

Ah, Frank, you are getting the bull**** engine going again.

Ah, anything that opposes your "world view," no matter how valid, is
obviously "bull****."

BTW. Liberals don't even make up half of the Democrat voters.


BTW. Liberal is often the catch phrase for Democrat, as much as
conservative is for Republican. Granted, there are "liberal Democrats and
conservative Republicans" but that is pretty much newspeak tautology.
further survivalist neocon ranting snipped

By the way, could you please (and I ask here politely as opposed to
degenerating into childish schoolyard vitriol), address my points re the
"sovereignty" issues I pointed out? See, Sun Tsu pointed out "If you know
yourself but do not know your enemy, you will sometimes meet with victory,
sometimes with defeat. If you know your enemy but do not know yourself, you
will sometimes meet with victory, sometimes with defeat. But if you know
yourself and you know your enemy, you will be victorious on a hundred
occasions." As a someone sworn to uphold and defend the Constitution
against all enemies, foreign and domestic, I think it would be appropriate
if I "knew" my enemy. Since you seem so opposed to the pluralism of our
present form of government, that enemy sounds like you.

Frank Reid:

How many of these little delicacies did you down, sir? After how many prior
drinks?

I do believe that this bar appetizer was truly the most disgusting thing
I've ever downed, including c-rats, MRE's LRRPS, and assorted campfire
specials.

One. I was stuck with 4 other guys in a trike sidecar (half hanging out the
"window"). My buddies paid the ladie to give me one, i.e. she knocked the
top off, held it under my nose, and when I opened my mouth to gag, she
dumped it in (my arms were being held behind me). I did get revenge as I
ralphed on her, her basket, and three of the four guys in the sidecar. By
the way, this was after about 15 San Miguels, so even so ****-faced I
couldn't feel my feet, I know bad juju when I taste it.

Fifteen San Miguels means means you won't have a normal bm for *at least* 15
days. Talk about bad juju. Wonderful beer when you're drunk. But, there's a
**** in every bottle.

Peace.

Some of us, here, like myself, are trying to do what we can to protect
those flyfishing places here in the US for you to come and enjoy. I
here partly to "give 'em hell", partly for entertainment, and mostly
to let those that would destroy our environment here and around the
world know that folks like me exist and will be fighting against them.

Good luck with your catch.

Oh I appreciate your efforts, and applaud your motives, even though I will
never fish in any of those places. My only problem with the whole thing is
that arguing politics on a newsgroup like ROFF ( the group I subscribe to),
is unlikely to save anything at all. Although it may occasionally be
entertaining.

For many people who subscribe to specific newsgroups, the constant, (
arguably "off-topic"), cross-posting, is merely an expensive nuisance. They
are forced to download and pay for something they do not want. The noise to
signal ratio is sometimes very high indeed.

There are plenty of political forums, where those of like mind, and opposing
opinions, can batter away at each other to their heartīs content, without
bothering anybody else. Unfortunately, it seems to be in the nature of the
beast, that many feel called upon to foist their opinions on others,
irrespective of the otherīs wishes. This is most unfortunate.

Lastly, environmental destruction is a result of our society. There is not
much anybody can do about it, without making sweeping changes to society,
and hardly anybody who is even remotely well situated ( read, practically
all of the western world),wants this.

Nevertheless, I wish you luck in your endeavours.

MC
