Petreausgate

[Coito ergo sum]

Which posts are these? I searched this thread, and the word "convinced" does not appear. At no time have I ever stated I was convinced of anything about the Petraeus matter.

"Well, this about seals it for me."

Oh right....you love to parse down to the last syllable, so you'll hang your hat your not using the exact word "convinced" and think yourself victorious.

That post relates only to what the job of "unpaid social liaison" meant. It has nothing to do with being convinced of anything about the scandal. What is it that you think I was talking about there?

Great -- so, you're beef with me is that I accurate suggest that there are multiple possibilities, and I assume you agree too that there are many aspects to this matter that are interesting and important.

"Is this just a love affair....or could it be a smokescreen for a massive government conspiracy?"

I never said that, or anything like it.

Gosh Mr. Beck, all you're doing is "raising possibilities".

Learn to read English.

You aren't disagreeing. You're shitting all over the thread and shouting about how this is all "Glen Beckish" -- meaning that the topic isn't fit for discussion, at least not unless it is presented in terms you find agreeable.

This is what you do -- you go to threads you don't have an interest in discussing, and you shit all over them with irrelevant, off topic posts. Yours are the tactics of a troll, like Zilla -- you like to disrupt conversations.

Poor baby. Must really suck for you.

Not really. I am just very thankful I'm not you. Being borderline retarded must be fairly difficult for you. How do you manage?

And, it must be nice to successfully derail a thread.

Terrific job Trolly-McTrolls.

Some people make a mission in life of being stupidly obtuse.

It's fascinating to observe the parallels between debating politics with conservatives and science with creationists.

Republicanism is a faith-based initiative.

You're a troll, you know that. Why lie?

Good to see you've admitted being a troll.

I'll let the moderators decide which one of us has been trying to discuss the issue, and which one is just posting irrelevant one-liners to shit on the thread.

I'm not trolling. I'm just waiting for nekkid pics of Paula.

That I can respect.

I'd like to see the Paula and Jill scenes....

So CES, what were you speculating this might be a "smokescreen" for? And what were you talking about when you said, "That about seals it for me"?

But at least it's nice to see you evolve a bit from just saying "Fuck you, fuck you, fuck you!" over and over, up to calling people trolls. Who knows? Maybe soon you'll evolve further into someone who puts everyone on ignore! There's always hope....

You're a troll too, Mr. Underbridge. And one-liners are all you get, you babble enough in response to those. Giving you more to rattle on about is silly.

I've already told you. It was one of the extremes mentioned in the media. Why do you insist that only part of the news coverage be discussed?

And what were you talking about when you said, "That about seals it for me"?

The shenanigans about a local "socialite" being given unsupervised on-base access as a "social liaison." It's obvious to me that people like Kelley are folks being brought on base for shenanigans.

But at least it's nice to see you evolve a bit from just saying "Fuck you, fuck you, fuck you!" over and over, up to calling people trolls. Who knows? Maybe soon you'll evolve further into someone who puts everyone on ignore! There's always hope....

If you weren't acting like such an unmitigated ass most of the time, you'd not get that reaction.

Again, if you don't like the topics discussed on this thread, go to another. You could even create your own. There is no point in being here just to derail the thread, which is what you're doing, and it is your sole intent.

As a hypothetical -- imagine someone takes an actual Glen Beck quote espousing a wild conspiracy theory and makes a thread out of it. Your practice would be to enter that thread and shit all over it, and rail against the fact that it is even being discussed at all. That's ApeLust's modus operandi, too. If they don't like an issue, they try to shut it down, derail it and they personally attack anyone discussing that view.

Now, someone who is intellectually honest can discuss even the most extreme ideas (if it interests them) like climate change denial, holocaust denial, Moon Hoax theorists, ancient astronauts and such. But, an intellectually honest person would not spend their time shitting all over those threads and just mindlessly derailing and screaming about how the topic is "GlenBeck-like" and ought not be even talked about. It's easy to see which camp you fit into.
