And its been true for centuries. It never changes. The New South was a bunch of crap. Message 27289609 It's not just the south...look at this guy...he digs up stuff that actually makes my case but thinks of it as a reasoned counter argument...to him it's incredulous that the AG of the USA would know more about criminal cases of international terrorists that members of congress ...these are people whose motivation is solely driven by the emotions of their elective constituencies...emotions they gauge and stir up accordingly...it's rigid political rhetoric driven by years of cynical conservative demagoguery...it's so absurd I don't even know where to begin with this kind of garbage...f__k it...i am gonna go do some gardening. I disagree. Ten is ruled by his wallet. He greedily counts every schekel he earns. He steeps himself in his faux Christianity in order to cover this weakness of his. That way he tells himself he is a good person while working to screw his fellow American who isn't as fortunate as he is. And just like Boehner, they all tell themselves that someone is poor because they are lazy. That allows them to eliminate any chance of guilt for their self serving ways. Where he gets into trouble is talking with people like yourself. After all, he is educated and is ambivalent about denying that education completely. That's why he became king of the strawman. He desperately looks for ways to get out of a discussion that may betray his fukked up ideology so the truth doesn't hit him over the head. The irony of course is that, frequently, he ends up unending himself like he did in his exchange with you over Holder. The weak are never pretty to watch in action. Its why I encourage them to leave.

See, to me, this is so typical of a southerner in action: Maybe John Chambers of Cisco (CSCO - commentary - Trade Now) fancies himself as a stock trader. Who else, other than a mutual or hedge fund, has spent $70 billion on stock in the last decade? That's right, he's spent $70 billion buying back stock, and the company's only worth $90 billion! Not only that, but he's got a cost basis of $20, according to Barclays Capital. The stock's at $17.40. So not only is he a stock trader, he's a terrible one. When he should have been selling stock, he was buying. He's down more than 12% during the decade. He should have just bought Treasuries. Or better, he should have bought the S&P 500, which was up 15.7% during this period!

Al, > to him it's incredulous that the AG of the USA would know more about criminal cases of international terrorists that members of congress ... No Al, it's incredulous that the Attorney General of the USA would hold himself above reproach and above criticism from the voting public and its representatives in Congress. Dismissing their concerns is typical of liberal elitists who think they know more than everyone else. And for what? You're fooling yourself if you think this is all about ensuring convictions for known terrorists. Most people see the domestic trials as part of the liberal ideology that there is no "war" on terrorism. No war, no military tribunals. Just treat it like law enforcement. And to see you run from the argument doesn't surprise me in the least, given your habit of running away from indefensible positions. Such as why Eric Holder would do a flip-flop instead of sticking to his beliefs. You really buy the notion that his hand was forced? LOL ... Tenchusatsu
