If you'd like to be on this middle east/political ping list, please FR mail me.

Quite a lot has been written about the swooning attraction lefty/libs have for unrepentant evil. Arafat/Fidel/Che/Huey Newton/Gerry Adams/John Gotti/Ted Bundy are such glamorous, charming buggers.

With all due respect, you had no cause to include John Gotti in that bunch of Terrorist-Commie scum. (Bundy qualifies as a terrorist IMHO)

The night that he finally and really and officially died, I went over to FNC to confirm the good news and to watch their collage of Arafat for about 5 minutes. That was enough of that for a lifetime.

It is obvious that FNC/ABCNNBCBS & the MSM fishwraps worshipped this vile/ugly POS terrorist.

Whatever he had done in the past couple of decades was recorded on film/video like some Diety on earth. I'm sure that if FCC had allowed it, they would have videoed his bowel movements and defied them.

Comparing their love for Arafat and hatred for our President is confirmation of their mental illness.

John, this long worded POS praise for a mass murdering Islamofascist Thug/terrorist is more proof that 'FNC/ABCNNBCBS & the MSM fishwraps are the Rathering Fraudcasters of America! They serve no legitimate role or purpose.

"The beloved, when he is found in any disgraceful situation, will be pained at being detected by his lover. If there were only some way of contriving that a state or an army should be made up of lovers and their loves, they would be the very best governors of their own city, abstaining from all dishonour . . . For what lover would not choose rather to be seen by all mankind than by his beloved, either when abandoning his post or throwing away his arms. . . . Or who would desert his beloved or fail him in the hour of danger?" -- Plato

In ancient Sparta, a soldier in training was fined if he did not have an older male lover as his mentor.

378 b.c to 2004 a.d

Pinch Sulzberger as Gorgidas ? NYT the Sacred Band of Thebes ?

Gorgidas was a Theban military leader of the Sacred Band of Thebes, an elite corps of paired Theban gay lovers.

The Ancient Art of Recruiting:

Ask, Tell, and Bring Your Boyfriend, Too

Plato makes the case in his Dialogues that the best army of all would be made up of pairs of male lovers who "...when fighting at each other's side, although a mere handful, they would overcome the world." The theory here is that they would fight to the death to protect each other and look good in front of their boyfriends.

The "Sacred Band of Thebes"

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

Homosexual lovers, according to Plutarch formed by the Theban commander Gorgidas. The motivation for the use of such an "Army of Lovers" in battle is also stated by Plutarch:

"For men of the same tribe or family little value one another when dangers press; but a band cemented by friendship grounded upon love is never to be broken, and invincible; since the lovers, ashamed to be base in sight of their beloved, and the beloved before their lovers, willingly rush into danger for the relief of one another."

According to Plutarch, Gorgidas initially distributed the Sacred Band of Thebes throughout his battle lines as an elite to strengthen the others' resolve, but later Pelopidas, after the Band had fought successfully at Tegyrae, used it as a sort of personal guard. For about 33 years, the Sacred Band of Thebes remained an important part of the Greek infantry.

Its defeat came at the Battle of Chaeronea, the decisive battle in which Philip II of Macedon and his son Alexander the Great ended Greek independence of the city-states. The Band fought on until every man was killed.

Plato wrote about the code of honor of the Sacred Band of Thebes:

"The beloved, when he is found in any disgraceful situation, will be pained at being detected by his lover. If there were only some way of contriving that a state or an army should be made up of lovers and their loves, they would be the very best governors of their own city, abstaining from all dishonour... For what lover would not choose rather to be seen by all mankind than by his beloved, either when abandoning his post or throwing away his arms... Or who would desert his beloved or fail him in the hour of danger?"

Nauseating - there really isn't a word to describe just how depraved and foul this Lewinsky-in-print to one of the truly evil men of the 20th century really is.

And it's even worse when you set this next to the obituary the Slimes wrote for one of the truly great men of the 20th century, Ronald Wilson Reagan. The Reagan obituary was nothing but a long screed of pure sneering hatred. And even at that, it had to share billing with the latest manufactured "outrage" over Abu Ghraib. I'm sure that the editors didn't let anything else even get near their homage to Arafat.

So in the eyes of the MSM, a child-raping terrorist is worthy of adulation while one the greatest Presdients in American history is worthy of nothing but contempt. And they have the gall to call us stupid and immoral.

Still works.

I was wondering. I did have some trouble because I put "unrepentant maniac killer" on my cards. This led some to believe that I was unrepentant about killing maniacs (mostly the blondes I had trouble with).

Well, as you know, if you're unable to convince them that you are a killer and a maniac, you might as well go home empty handed - because even the hottest filly will get so frigid that the heater will kick on every time she spreads her legs if she finds out that you're not a killer.

LOL!
