Mulder: the question isn't meant to be answered

Kind of like the questions "when did you stop beating your wife?".

Rather it's a dismissive attempt to smear you before you can even respond.

Exactly. Although I think I might post an answer to that question that would "checkmate" them. Maybe I'll do it later, just to see the responses.

There was a time when a thread such as this one would be filled with intelligent debate, but I'm afraid finding substantive conversations on this forum is a difficult task anymore. Easier to just dismiss your opponents as people who have "never done anything for their country" I suppose...

Exactly. I bring up Patriot Act 2, and several posters insult my patriotism, without addressing the legislation.

I bring up Bovard's new book "Terrorism and Tyranny", and people talk about tinfoil.

But like I said before, I hope they enjoy their police state. When they violate some victimless "law", like Limbaugh did, maybe they'll realize how un-Free this country is unless you have money.

UHHH, seems to me that Limbaugh has money. Not to mention fame and a national audience. Want to try again?
