LOL, she seems like a tough girl, I'm sure she can take some skepticism and viciousness, (from an obscure forum like FR), since she has handed out a healthy dose of viciousness to her President, her country, and her country's soldiers for 3 years, by writing in papers worldwide for tens of millions.

Never fear, she will be making the rounds to defend herself and "Saddam's Stability" soon enough!

Post #119Please see the troubling (and at this point unverified) post # 131 here.

Thanks for the heads-up.

No....Allegra is...and knows what it is like. Why this hostility towards Allegra?

Sometimes people who aren't very bright get hostile when they're trying to distract people from their lack of intelligence. They aren't sharp enough to realize that anybody with an IQ in three digits can see straight through that.

I have pity on BSD, but he has become tiresome and boring with his insistence on distoring my words. He's nowhere near as good at that as the MSM is and I see through their work all the time.

Thank you for your kind words, though, Dog. ;-)

Post 59 was as clear as it gets. Allegra stated clearly that it IS unsafe in bagdahd because of our troops presence there.

You just hang on to your little delusion, OK? If it makes you feel better, that's all that matters.

I highly recommend remedial reading classes, though. You need some work on your comprehension skills.

Now, run along and let the grown-ups talk.

" I truly don't understand why there are some here who refuse to believe that a woman, in fear for her life, would say anything to make sure she wouldn't die. Why are people here so damn vicious."

Read post #9 and you'll have your answer.

McCain was in 'Nam? Who knew.

So it seems, was Anderson Cooper of CNN. See his bio at CNN.com:

"Cooper graduated from Yale University in 1989 with a bachelor of arts degree in political science. He also studied Vietnamese at the University of Hanoi. Cooper is based in New York City."

What does that have to do with anything? So everyone who is against this Country, against the war, against this President should have their heads chopped off?

My comment had everything to do with the post I was responding to and nothing to do with your rant. The poster said that "thugs" forced her to make those statements, so I asked what "thugs" forced her to make her previous statements. I don't see where your rant came from...

So everyone who is against this Country, against the war, against this President should have their heads chopped off?

Please show me where I ever said that!!

I distorted nothing allegra. You said quite clearly that a reason bagdahd is unsafe is because of troop presence there.I disagree with that notion on the basis that our presence there is part of the solution rather than part of the problem. The problem being unsafe streets. If we left today,every soldier left today, those streets would not be safer. Indeed they would be less safe than they are today.

If you did not mean such a thing then by all means clear it up with a retraction and explanation. The streets of Iraq have been unsafe for a long time. Unless of course you were a Dan Rather type that would kiss Saddam's butt and only report what he wanted reported. Care do disagree with that statement?

I didn't call you names or insult you. I did compare your position to that of Murtha and Pelosi because your position does mirror theirs. That the streets are unsafe because of our presence. That is what you said and you know it.

You know what I have pitty on Allegra? I have pity on a person that refuses to aknowledge their own position. Mine is clear. Our troops are part of the solution in Bagdahd, not part of the problem. You seem to disagree with my position in that you have said the streets are unsafe ,in part, because of our presence. This leads a person to think that if our presence was not part of the equation then the streets would be safer.

DO you honestly believe such a thing? If not, then how do you square your post where you stated that our presence IS part of the problem?

Allegra if all you have is petty insults then your content is seriously lacking.
