Palestinians are semites. I support their cause. Therefore I am not anti-Semitic. I am anti-Sharon. Let's be perfectly clear about that. As I am also anti-Bush. Which really lousy logicians like you conflate with being anti-American. Where I'm failing you is that I don't have the suck-up loyalty to Bush that creates monstrosities like Stalin, Hitler and Saddam. How ironic and troubling that you demand of me the very thing that you criticize the Ba'athists of Iraq for. Your reference to my quip about 'traders not being innocents' shows that you don't deal in facts but easily jump to fictional conclusions. There is an urban legend on SI, created by Right Wing Extremists that I'm bitter about the "traders" because I lost money. This is false. THe RWEs are merely projecting their prejudices and most likely their results. On balance, I was one of the real winners in the Internet stock bubble, relatively speaking. Right wingers simply can't wrap their mind around the fact that anyone could actually be concerned about the purported ethical principles that Richard Grasso, for instance, so regularly mouths as a necessity; i.e. fair and transparent markets. Instead of admitting that Wall Street is a den of thieves and back stabbing cut-throats, they attack me incorrectly for being a luzer. It's quite bizarre, as are you for regurgitating this clap. Re: I also consider you one of the few people on SI who is simply not worth conversing with. Of the folks I've got people marked, you are one of the most prolific. I keep you listed just to gauge how manic I am in production of quality posts with tons of URLs and real analysis. I'm always disappointed when I bother to read your posts. They're gossipy chatter and I've learned nothing from your vast production, though I am getting the measure of a man who deals in the shallow end of the gene pool. Your erstwhile "contribution" to this thread is a good case in point. You specialize in prejudice, bold blandness and conventional generalizations. There's more fluff in your posts than there is in your pillow. Your saving grace is that you lack the viciousness of, for instance, a jla. But you do share a trait with him and most other right wingers. You firmly act upon the notion that facts don't matter when matters of ideology are concerned. This is the definition of the hypocrite.
