I do not recall ever having accused you of having your own party. I merely stated that you are very much a proud member of a party. The statement of "your party" does not indicate ownership, but rather membership.

What privilege are you accusing me of accusing you of having?

You regularly accuse me of being a member of an established party. I could provide cases of you doing so but you won't read them.

I never accused you of accusing me of having any power within a party, though you have in that wonderful snippet of nonsense again indicated that you believe me to be a part of a party.

Considering most of your "isms" are based on peculiar new meanings of (generally root) words, I have no idea what you might be trying to accuse me of there. I would love for you to tell me what "statism" means to you, but I don't have any reason to expect that you will do so.

So why do you get that privilege but I do not? You insist that I am part of an established party while demanding that I view you otherwise.

I love how you, again, discarded the overwhelming majority of the text of my comment in favor of your favorite snippet. Nonetheless, as much as you try to assign me to a given party - or to claim that Obama is somehow secretly a part of some grand political movement / conspiracy that is counter to everything he has done to date as president - you are at least equally as much a member of the GOP. You can pretend that the Tea Party is somehow distinct from them but we all know how that song will go.

i wasn't trying to change anything. If anyone here is trying to change the topic it would appear to more likely be you, with the way you so carefully discard text that you find to be too uncomfortable to reply to.

Although when you say "OUR" rather than "YOUR" you get closer to the truth than you have been in a long, long, time. What Obama has actually DONE as president is vastly closer to the goals that you champion than any of the ones that I ever have. Why you keep claiming that we are femtoseconds away from some grand about-face - when you should instead be celebrating the fact that by and large you are getting from legislation basically everything you have asked for - is beyond me.

One, why is a "coherent strategy" - or any strategy really - required only when the man at 1600 Pennsylvania is not of your own party?

And two, why are you pretending that this would somehow change your feelings regarding the POTUS?

We haven't had strategies for decades, why start now? The only difference is this time we're lobbing missiles first, before committing boots to the ground. Last time we went on an adventure in Iraq we figured we could Han Solo the mission as we went along, and we saw how well that turned out. At least so far we haven't sent any ground troops to die.

But will it run Crysis?

Came to instigate a reinstallation. Saw that I was beaten to it. Left satisfied.

Everytime someone mentions Deus Ex, someone reinstalls Deus Ex

Here are what I consider to be the best games I've ever played (in no particular order):

Skyrim
Batman: Arkham Asylum
Doom
Pac-Man
Tetris
Final Fantasy 6
Final Fantasy 9
Megaman 2
Megaman 3
The Legend of Zelda
The Legend of Zelda: A Link To The Past
The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds
Super Metroid
Castlevania: Symphony of the Night
Castlevania: Harmony of Dissonance
God of War II

.... ought to be a little entertaining. Almost makes me wish I'd get mod points, but I haven't seen mod points in a decade now.

You sure have a lot to say for someone who claims to be disinterested. Why invest so much energy into running around telling everyone they're wrong if you are disinterested?

It's a better description of Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid.

I almost closed out my comment by saying that I was channeling you.

You're missing the point. Smitty (and others) are trying to claim that Obama is somehow both incompetent and on the verge of launching the NWO, and they don't seem at all bothered by the obvious contradiction.

I can't speak for all non-fans of GWB, but I myself not once claimed that GWB was an evil genius or even of marginal competence. I and every non-fan I have ever met have consistently viewed GWB as being of extraordinary incompetence while being directed primarily by the puppetmaster Cheney (who took many orders from his corporate masters).

I have never heard a single conservative ever claim that Biden is somehow capable of passing down orders to President Lawnchair (or even competent at being a normal VP), so that parallel doesn't exist either.

C'mon, to a Yuropeen, Ohio and California are exactly the same thing, but Scotland and England are totally different.
