I saw his post because I was not logged in; you're shooting your guns in the air CMAC save your ammo.

If it is my opinion that people are Saddam pundits its my opinion and in a free thinking society that shall be encouraged.

No, I've only read The Fountainhead and Atlas Shrugged. Maybe I'll get We The Living and read that soon. I think you're the second person to recommend that to me. Yeah, I bet that would be an interesting conversation over a bottle of scotch maybe with a Macanudo thrown in for good measure.

Well, that seems like a safe bet. This thread doesn't show any signs of running out of steam yet. What were we talking about . . . ?

Oh, yeah. I scored a few Cubanos while in Beijing but only one was left by the time I returned. I partook of that lovely thing and part of a jug of JD one evening on my cabin porch. Mmmmm...

Free thinking? Maybe. Free speaking? Here? Definitely not.

The man who feels free to ignore any critic who displeases him is likely to be a limited man.

Yes, you're entitled to your opinion. You're not entitled to hijack our country's destiny along with Ollie North type buddies because you're so damn certain that your POV is the utterly correct one. You could be the poster boy for American bull-headedness.

Your education is far from complete.

Furthermore, this business of throwing bricks at me while hiding behind your pretense of not peeking at my responses is cowardly.
