"So I shut your mouth."
Are you insane? Look at my mouth. open.

And as I said, I am grateful for your grandfather's sacrafices, though I could wish he'd sacraficed his reproductive capabilities while he was sacraficing.

Ahhh. A Lampshade joke. Nothing says class like a lampshade joke. Hey, jumbo, if you'd been there, they coulda made made a Circus tent! Becuase you have lots of skin! Becuase you are fat, and when the Nazis cleaved off youy skin for making a lampshade, they'd have had lots to work with!

"Sorry Im not trying to build some kind of credability with you."
How about building up some credability, period?

"So max, what is your big solution to solving a wave of Muslim Fundimentalist that want to destroy us?"
Just so you don't get all uppitty about me not taking your seriously. Lord knows it's an effort. First of all, I'd put some of my war cash into homeland security and put it in cops on the beat and firemen. Right now my local police force is down a lot of guys off fighting the people of a very nasty but fairly secular country called Iraw, and that's got them all tied up. Then I'd get our troops out of Saudi Arabia, becuase they're presence there is a big source of the tension between us and the Islamic world. Then I'd work on a peace treaty in Israel becuase daily footage of Palestinians getting run over by bulldozers and living permanently in refugee camps breeds terrorirst like stagnant water breeds mosquitos. Then I'd leverage trade with our various freindly dictator states in the gulf becuase they lean on their populations and the ony vent they allow them is hatred of America. I'd make damn sure I stopped funfing Islamic Extremist groups in places I tought they'd make trouble for other folks I didn't like the way we did in Pakistan and Afgjanistan. Then I'd make it clear the United States was in favor of a Kurdish state. Then I'd start a Manhattan project for alternatives to fossil fuel. In the meantime, I'd handle any terrorist attacks that did take place like the brutal crimes they are and not as acts of war. Now that might do the trick. But I'll tell you what. Unless you plan to kill every Muslim over there, our current strategy is just making more fundamentalist terrorsist daily.

Did I take you seriously enough, Submarine boy? You may not like my solution but how many times are you going to trot out that Bullshit about how "All you people do is complain! What you gonna do! Hah! I knew y'all din't have no answer!"

What are YOU going to do? I'll tell you. Not one damn thing. Sit there and croak like a bullfrog about what you'll stand for and what you won't. I'm working for my vision. What are you doing for yours?

What would I do about the Fundies? Work on the miserable conditions that create them. So there might be less of them. Attack theirfunding, catch them whenever I could and put cops on the beat and firemen in the firehouses. I'm not big or bad. See, I believe that conditions are good, like here in the USA, your fundies restrict themselevs to running TV stations and hating gay people. I think if you made Pat Robertson live on a garbage pile, he'd be as dangerous as any towel head in a week.

"they consider it a holy war."
So do you. You're both nuts.

"And no matter your view on it, your throat is cut no matter what you think or believe."
Well, I hope I'm lucky enough to have a tough guy vigilante Submarine boy with a baseball bat who isn't afraid of anything but the IRS and Hives watching my back and making wisecracks about people's skin being used for Lampshades.
