And I also use; Republican = right = conservative and Democrat = left = liberal = imbeciles and I don't know where the words originated but I don't care because I know that is how they are correctly used.

and traditionally the left hand is associated with evil and the right hand with good, but seeing as how you have gotten my curiosity about the origins of the words up why does left=liberal and right=conservative ? Which incidentally are the names of Canadas two major national political parties.

Mike.... that's very rude and insolent. You really have no idea what you're talking about.

There really IS a "right" and a "left", but you don't know what it is... anyone who knows anything about parliamentary politics can tell you, but YOU don't know squat... so stop ranting and raving about "socialists" and "left" and blah blah blah, because you really don't know... and may never know.

You're not the sharpest knife in the drawer, bud...

Posted: 12/21/2004 7:59:24 PM
LOL Ya I got that link from a friend who tried like heck to get me to vote for Kerry to. he got from his democrat mailing list.
One thing you forgot to throw in there though.......How about Bushs business ventures with the Bin laden family that one is a good one to.
Ok now for your quotes.............
Even in your own post O'Neill couldn't answer why Iraq, although from a third party (Suskind) at the end of your statement. O'Neill himself directly could not confirm that. So once again your opinion as a liberal and that's fine.
As for calling me a Moron that's fine to I wont even reply to that one, its always last resort to a losing battle.

He obtained one Pentagon document, dated March 5, 2001, and entitled "Foreign Suitors for Iraqi Oilfield contracts," which includes a map of potential areas for exploration.

“It talks about contractors around the world from, you know, 30-40 countries. And which ones have what intentions,” says Suskind. “On oil in Iraq.”

Funny how its just worded as countries wouldn't want to be to specific then we cant blame the US. As for the document from the Pentagon cant say which department I sure, since the Pentagon holds the Military branchs including ATF, FBI, CIA, and DEA. And Im sure there are all sorts of interesting documents on just about anything you would like to discourage. And Im sure we have reports on just about every other country that has interests on other countries sitting in the Pentagon, but that doesn't matter since it wouldn't work for your argument now would it?

So like I said before back to the Iraq inspectors ( which btw happened during Clinton), that's why Bush had Iraq in his sites from the start.
And again I go back to Afghan, Bosnia, and Columbia. Don't want to talk about them either since they don't support your war for oil theory either doesn't it?
Your still upset about the country voting Bush in again aren't you? It'll be ok I promise, we will go back to cutting the military and building a false sense of financial security so we can blame the next Republican.

And I don't really give a **** that I'm noy the sharpest knife in the knives in the drawer sharper than me are: Albert Einstein,Newton,Plato ARisotle,DesCartes, Galileo, Max Planck, Edmund teller,Darwin, shakespeare, etc.etc.etc.etc...................................................................................

No Mike. You're wrong... you didn't really look it up. BAD BOY!!!

Now Mike... you need to tell me the country... first off...
This information is fairly accessible and it's a good primer excercise for political discussion.

Hint: go to wikipedia and look it up.

WITHOUT even looking anywhere on the net I would guess if were talking about the origins of the political terminology we'd be talking about Greece and Rome and their senates.

Mike-This is your "contact" speaking. I am posting under Rhiannon's name right now, as to not seem suspicious. No one other than you will probably be able to see this post, anyway. I am supposed to tell you to stop posting on the forum boards, but if you insist, you absolutely MUST stop the maniacal use of those dancing green bananas.The 'Higher Ups' (you know what I mean) are monitoring your behavior, and are concerned about your sanity. The Captain of the ship, and Head of Operations are considering major repercussions if this disturbing behavior continues. I have also been instructed to tell you to take your medication AS DIRECTED.You skip a few days and this is what happens. I will now report that I have informed you of your mission, and that you have agreed to comply. P.S. The most recent voice that has intercepted brainwaves in your cranium via the electromagnetic activity of your computer screen and become audible is a liar...don't listen to him. Now...back away from the computer slowly, and focus on your 'mission 'from here on out.

Elwood I read the wikipedia and it said the terms originated in the french revolution but right after that it said the terms left and right were modified yo fit whatever opposing political movements were around,meaning the relationship I gave is correct.

well then its probably what i said the Conservative party seated on the right side of the houses of parliament and the Liberal party seated on the left side of the houses of parliament because theu are seated facing one another.

And I would further guess we'd be talking left and right in relation to where the speaker of the house is seated,the speakers left and right hands.

Mike: From the approach, the house of commons (elected representatives of the people) is on the left and the house of lords (counts, lords, etc...) is on the right.

The term "leftist" is just propaganda... as you should know the house of commons is not some socialist organization, but merely those who represent the common people in government... that is: all those who are not royalty.

you're way too caught up in the name calling to know anything about politics. You need to study the issues better and find out what they're actually about before you go hollering names at people.

ANd there's also the house of lords in england, and wikipedia said the term left, at one point,represented the bourgeoise, the capitalists. Which brings us back to my very first statement that I don't care where the terms originated but I know how to use them correctly today.

In Canada today the house of commons is socialist organization because the Liberals hold power.What you call name calling is in fact calling a spade a spade.I like to refer to things by their real names rather than by some thouht police euphemization, hence I call abortion murder, I call homos fags(although Canada is so ****ed up now I think I could be charged wiyth a hate crime for doing so.) Not calling things what they are is a form of deception,a lie. Are you familiar with George Orwell's 1984.Big Brother is alive and well in CAnada today.My way to counter the lies and deceptions is to call things what they really are, not what their politically correct euphemisms pretend they are.

Wow, I'm having a lot less epeleptic fits since Mike has kept his gangrenous penis off the screen.

Casper: you said
And again I go back to Afghan, Bosnia, and Columbia. Don't want to talk about them either since they don't support your war for oil theory either doesn't it?


The bombing of the Afganistanian people and the supposed hunt for Bin Laden proved a smokescreen for the development of an oil pipeline.

The US govenrment as well as corporations the world over want to attack Columbia and take control because of the power that the coke industry has. Something like half the money of the world is caught up with the drugs trade. More money is spend on drugs in the world than oil. It isn't that the US wants to take over the coke trade, they want to irradicate it so people spend their hard earned money on stulifying naroctics like beer, dvds, holidays to florida, satilite tv and trips to the mall.

As for Bosnia - it's always a good idea to test your weapons out from time to time, especially when the government and industry always makes money out of the war and clean up operation. If you organisation are then able to sell new weaponry to people in the country afterwards you create on ongoing market...

Apart from all those reasons, strategy and flexing the countries muscles on the international stage is always part of it. I'm picturing the US today as embodied by one of those egotistic guys in prison dramas - you know...pumping iron in the yard, swaggering around as though a dog pissing on everyone, finding a nice vulnerable boy to express it's manlyness with lol.

I've just got home and noticed this pearl of wisdom. Do you really think that prior to toilet paper people simply wiped sh*t off their a***s with their hands Mike? So, that was what they did - despite all the other things that would have been effective - and then 'hey-presto' some genius provokes a paradigm shift and we all suddenly start to use tissue paper. Wow - how fascinating. I guess we know what you do Mike when you run out of toilet roll. Yuck!

DMT I notice you have the habit of transposing your own neurotic behaviours on others.Just because you are desperate for dates,hire prostitutes and wipe your a** with your hand doesn't mean I do.I have never been desperate for women or dates or anything else in my entire life and never will be.As to your allusions that I sniff glue as you do, I don't drink,smoke,or do drugs and never will.Print this out and ask your mummy to explain all of this to you when she brings you your hot cocoa and tucks you in at beddy-bies tonight.

And I find your lunatic fantasies as to who did what in World War Two extremely disgusting.hundreds of thousands of Canadians and Americans died horrible deaths to save your skinny British asses.Thousands of Canadian Mercahant Seamen died of exoposure,froze to death and drowned whemn their freighters when they weresunk By U-boats.And if youthink your British weres so ****ing big and brave and heroic then howcome it was Canadians who were used as machine gun and cannon fodder at British planned disaster at Dieppe and did allthe dying.The boring cliches and half-wit logic of you leftist surrender monkeys is one thing but when you belittle the supreme sacrifice of hubdreds of thousands of young men who had their entire lives ahead of them it becomes truly sick and revolting.

I'm actually left handed, but I wipe my bum using my right hand to hold the toilet paper. Does that make me a 'sit on the fence liberal'? lol Maybe I'm expressing my disgust in neo-conservatism eh?

and as for my answer to this. There will never be a McDonnalds, a Starbucks, or a American theme park in Iraq. There will never be an Iraq in the way that we have, over the last century, tried to contruct one. It was never realistic or appropriate or sane, for the sake of western interests', to try to glue together a group of historically waring tribes. However much western elite groups try to bully people into compliance, it just isn't going to happen!

By trying to create a distinct, harmonious and compliant culture from so many tribal and religious differences we basically put lots of antagonistic chemicals in a fire. It will explode in your face time and time again, hurting all of the people within and sending burning bits of coal and shapnen all over the place, injuring anyone within range. The hotter the fire gets the further the bits of burning material fly.

Wishing all you lovely enlightened, patient, warm people I have seen on here a very peaceful and happy christmas and a wonder-filled new year.
