Newsmax talks to Max Burbank.....

[The_Rorschach]

"Idiots like you were saying the same thing to critics of Cold War tactics. . .some said, supporting these dubious Latin dictators, or these questionable Arab extremists is a bad idea."

I hope you're purposefully confusing those who viewed the Cold War as a necessity -which I do now, even if I didn't know of its existance back then (it ended when I was kid buddy, fuck you!)- with those who back our rather shortsighted Foreign policy.

"People like you lack complete vision, Ronnie. You don't possess the mental capability to see beyond these borders. Hell, you can't even see beyond the next Presidential election. The world is 20 second images and good polling data to you."

In that case, you can Clinton up there, because largely he ran an extrememly successful, and equally shortsighted, campaign based upon polling data. How many lasting foreign affairs measures that he implimented are still pervasive now? How many will remain ten years? He was fairly typical as a modern day politician.

"How much Engels have you read?"

Why would anyone want to read Engels? He largely reworded unoriginal concepts which were first concieved, more persuasively, by others. Hopefully, he will be best known for bankrolling Marx by future generations, or as a plagarizing(Sp?) hack.

Vibe - "With a moron you never know what is gonna come next."

He's really not you know. Even Kevin, if memory serves, agreed with me that his political appointments and strategems actually suggest he has an uncanny ability to guage his opposition and respond with surprising clairty. :/

Vibe "I would much rather hear the unglossed truth than have someone try to cram rose colored glasses over my eyes."

I would suggest you stop watching whatever news channel you currently have set because otherwise you'd know that arguments such as:

"This man needs to be taken out of power. He is a danger to his own people and the rest of the world."

. . .were points made extremely clear in quite a few of his non-televised speeches. I don't support Bush, I don't even like him, but half truths wouldn't profit your arguments much at all.

Jen - "Thats because you are too much of an ass to admit to yourself that you were wrong about something."

Ronnie has been around for at least four years or so. You haven't even been here one. What the fuck do you know about it?

Spectre -"you are a lot like me Ronnie, and I have scarred myself for life by saying this"

No, despite his often fanatical support for Bush, Ronnie is educated and at least bothers to read the news -Even if many of the places he reads that news I find questionable. I realize its fun to pick on Ronnie, and I find myself doing it sometimes too, but you really are an idiot. I'd rather have a half dozen Ronnies posting in hte Poli Phil than one of you. Back to Blabber with you, and take Jen with you.

Jen -"I find on forums from people who are convinced it is their mission in the world to bring everyone over to their point of view is amazing."

The irony of this statement is mind boggling.
