TINFOIL HAT: Sec State Injured, SEAL Killed During Iran Incident?

Comments Filter:
  • Instead, She's prolly face-down, in Madeline Allbright...

  • In your previous JE you said

    Despite the mostly amusing back-n-forth on Benghazi with the fellas, I'd like to hold fire on further exchanges until there is some no-kidding news on the topic.

    And here you are introducing more speculative drama that you relate to your favorite current non-troversy. Or does any speculation you post automatically count as "no-kidding news"? Your post that you link to here does, after all, bring up Benghazi again.

    • If you followed the link, I was laughing at the story, while wishing the Secretary of State receive good care.
      You DO want the lady to receive good care, don't you?
      • wishing the Secretary of State receive good care.

        That sounds like what you would call OMG SOCIALISM. Or do you just want her to receive good care so that you can throw her into the stocks and question her until she breaks and gives you whatever answers you want?

        You DO want the lady to receive good care, don't you?

        Orange. There is no right answer to this question when you are asking it, so I will say orange. If I said yes, you would call me a collectivist socialist pig. If I said no you would say I was trying to protect her from being questioned about Benghazi.

        • You say "Orange"
          I say "Apple"
          You say "Tomato"
          I say "Toma... aw fuck... that doesn't work without Unicode... Give it a rest Frances

          HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYBODY!!

          Should be exciting..

        • Why would I want anyone to receive less than good care? As though I were some sort of judge? Is your question whether, as per the President's advice on voting, I act from a spirit of revenge?

          There is no right answer to this question when you are asking it

          How in the world is there not a correct answer? She's in the hospital. How do you ethically deliver sub-par care?
          I'm not the lady's biggest fan, but what I always strive to pray for when it comes to any of these people in office is that they pass old, ful

          • Why would I want anyone to receive less than good care?

            Good care is a purely subjective term. If you wanted everyone in the country to receive what I consider to be good care, then you would have to support a single-payer healthcare system as there is no other way to do it.

            As though I were some sort of judge?

            You have been passing plenty of judgement - most of which coming without anything resembling factual information - so describing you as a self-appointed judge is accurate.

            Is your question whether, as per the President's advice on voting, I act from a spirit of revenge?

            What the hell are you referring to by "President's advice on voting"? Since you didn't say "BHO" this time, I suspect

              You move beautifully from the subjective to the objective. I'm so glad you've got all that sorted. Though, beyond the positive assertion of non-zero care, I'll leave that single-payer to you. The empirical evidence of, e.g. the UK is s

              • I'll leave that single-payer to you. The empirical evidence of, e.g. the UK is sufficient to scare off rational people. See Daniel Hannan.

                Calling that book empirical or evidence is an insult to both terms. When people who are not conservative hacks evaluate health care systems they universally find that the American system is the most wasteful on the face of the earth with regards to money spent versus outcomes. The UK system is dramatically more effective than the American on virtually every measurable aspect with the sole exception of executive monetary compensation.

                'Most'? Why not just toss me completely under the bus and accuse me of having no factual information whatsoever, in your omniscience?

                Because everyone is capable of finding factual data on occasion. You

                  Your arguments are so superior; your negation of every event, motive, and argument I offer is so comprehensive; the innate superiority of your thought so blatantly obvious, that my only regret is that I was not plumbed a female, so that I could track you down and bear your children.

                  I see the welfare and opportunity of the individual as being critical. You see liberty as being solely the property of people with an (R) after their name.

                  • Wow, so I point out that you are mistaking garbage editorialization for legitimate news and you respond by turning the sarcasm up to 11? Interesting move there, smitty.

                    You appear to be arguing an equality of condition, whereas I'm after equality of opportunity

                    No. How you came to such a bizarre conclusion is a mystery.

                    Meanwhile, I'd argue the GOP stands revealed a branch of the Progressives, along with the Democrats.

                    First, I'm not sure what progressive means to you, but I can tell you there are none in Washington currently by the understanding that I share with most of the world.

                    Second, I did not say that you place all people with the (R) after their name as having the right to dictate w

                      It's all artillery, all the time, isn't it? How liberal, in the classic sense of examining all viewpoints.

                      At any rate, the sarcasm is due to being rather done with spending time in discussion when it's not an actual dialogue. "damn_registrars" hints at a possible academi

                      The book that you were referring to was a giant editorial piece that some publisher decided to bound up and sell. Just because people purchased said book does not mean that it actually has a factual point to make. You are trying to sell it as being a worthwhile reference for reality, which it is not. Jonah is a conservative hack who couldn't come up with anything factual to write about, so he made shit up and then found a publisher who was willing to put it out in book form for a nominal fee.

                    • No, actually I've read and studied a fair amount. Your office seems about midway between Abuse and Arguments, and you've essentially turned into a royal bore. You can reply to this, and I guarantee you the last word.
                    • No, actually I've read and studied a fair amount

                      Quite nearly every source you have provided recently has been an editorial. Why would you consider reading editorials to be equivalent to having "read and studied"? If someone watched Bowling for Columbine and claimed to be an expert on the NRA as a result, you would not accept that. Yet you have read a bunch of editorials and claim to be an expert on their topics.

                      you've essentially turned into a royal bore

                      I'm sorry that facts do not have the entertainment value of your favorite editorials and conspiracy theories.

                      You can reply to this, and I guarantee you the last word.
