Mq,
Re: Here is a key sentence which may have passed you by.
Ahem, Mq, why in the world would you think that I didn't get the key to the whole game? I'm terribly disappointed in your grasp of my oeuvre over time. I'd have assumed that you'd have a clue that I can actually comprehend the game.
After all, I did call the present Iraq quagmire much more intuitively and observantly than you in the run up to the cock-up.
Your dismissiveness has an ugly, rather Anglo cast about it.
Are you letting some of your closeted racism express itself inadvertently?

Re: Now, in the defence of "freedom", the USA is developing conscription systems, "just in case they are needed". Talk about Alice in Wonderland, 1984's Big Brother etc!! To be free we must take you hostage and force you into the army to kill and be killed.
Yes, your writing is much better when it is not gratuitously dismissive. You've pretty much nailed this concept down to its essence.

Re: As Smedley says, it's a racket. If taxpayers aren't prepared to pay the going rate, they don't deserve to be defended.
Oops, back to gratutious dismissiveness, eh? Sorry, the taxpayers never have had and never will have a say in infamous adventures like the Viet Nam War and the Iraq Quagmire. In order to create such stupendous messes, it takes leadership. Anglo leadership. |
