BEIRUT Thousands of Americans whose vacations and business trips to Lebanon have degenerated with sickening speed into stints in a battle zone remained stranded here under Israeli bombardment Monday, their frustration and anger mounting because the U.S. government hasn't gotten them out faster.
Waiting around Beirut with bags packed and fingers crossed, U.S. citizens derided the embassy for busy phone lines, a lack of information and gnawing uncertainty over when and whether they will get out. Hundreds were expected to be shipped to Cyprus today, but how long the full evacuation will take remains uncertain.

Is that supposed to be a snappy comeback? If so, you need to try a little harder. Come on, you girls put your heads together and I am sure you can come up with something better than that.

I think we have to assume that yellowdoghunter belongs to bykr babe's [is that it, ydh?] pack. I suggest ignoring it completely.

If you guys want to defend the Los Angeles Times, go right ahead. Usually that paper is derided around here, called the LA Slimes, etc....but I guess if the "right" people agree with what they are saying, then it is okay, that one time.
I guess we can assume that you are in the usual suspects pack. Be careful that you never disagree with that small pack or you will get banned.

So, you don't agree with the LA Times assessment of being "bogged down in Lebanon? This is what this thread was about.

I can see that you have lost your senses and perhaps your meds. Be a good bykr babe crony and pester someone else with your nonsense.

Well, since you refuse to say whether you agree with the article, I will assume you do. How can one just completely ignore the article the thread was based on? Well, I guess we just witnessed how one can.
Oh, and the typical response by the "pack"....take your meds, etc....I wish you girls would come up with something else, that one got old about 3 years ago.

rewording people's FRnames, Is that or is that not your post? Since that's plural, why don't you point out for us which freeper names I've reworded?
I've already said I don't remember how BikerBabs spells her name, and I don't feel like going back 400 posts or so looking for it.
But since you're so certain I've mutilated other names, I'm sure you won't mind pointing them out for us. And if you can't do it, you're a liar.

I guess so. I've noticed that liars tend to stick together. And putting it on ignore is good advice.

You know what I meant. Who cares if I typed it plural? I was referring to Bykrbayb's name and you know it. Once again, it is the "little innocent ole me" routine.
You are just so desperate to prove that I am a liar but you will never be able to do it because I have no reason to lie.

You know, Clara Lou, I don't think that prior to this thread we've ever even talked and let me just say, it's really nice of you to "carry my water" as "she who shall be ignored" is claiming. So thank you. And it's nice meeting you.

The only reason I don't object is that 'Zatamazal' happens to be the very Etruscan Demigod I revere.
