As a first-generation American, raised in the 1950s, I am intimate with the difference between ethnicity and character and the prejudices that span it.Hit a nerve did I? Snoogums, I don't need to psychoanalyze. Anybody who's had a real post secondary education can tell when somebody's faking it.We had to EARN the confidence of our neighbors. It wasn’t granted to us by politically correct fiat.
My prejudice against the Arabs stems mostly from their abject hatred of the Jews and especially of Israel, even among the Arab “Christians”, but most especially among the Moslems, who constitute the vast majority of them, and the extraordinary measures they take to express that hatred, specifically targetting women and children to amplify the “terror” aspect of their misanthropic mischief.
No other ethnic/religious group can claim the distinction of having killed over 3000 Americans on American soil in the span of just two hours.
Yes, I’m faking it all the way to the bank. :)
Do you never use words bigger than “goober” or “boob” or “snoogums”?
What’s that say about your personality?
You pretend to psychoanalyze me based on the words I use, not having ever met me, nor spoken to me, knowing absolutely nothing about me beyond the constraints of a few replies I made in this one-dimensional medium.
In my experience, namecalling and amateur psychoanalysis, given nothing upon which to base any diagnosis, are what I typically find in responses coming from the Left.
It's pretty funny to see you flail around like this and play the victim. Especially after you were so quick to whine about arabs. Here's a hint snoogums, I know plenty of lebanese, Christian or otherwise, and they're better people than you'll *ever* be.
I'll also venture to guess that a 4 star general is just a *tad* bit more successful than you.
You seem to like words with “oo” in them. “Snoogums”, “boob”, “goober” ...
You’re the one playing psychoanalyst, tea-leaf reader, and name-caller. You still know virtually nothing about me.
Conservatives base their arguments on facts.
Liberals base them on feelings.
Here’s a fact for you.
God has blessed me with an income in the six figures to provide for the houseful of children with which He has also blessed me (see my tag line).
Here’s another fact.
Your general’s income is substantially enhanced, perhaps geometrically, by going out on the paid speech circuit second-guessing foreign policy in American-hating gulags like Berkeley. Having been given a place of high privilege, access to sensitive information, and a sacred trust to protect that information, he is now violating that trust by using his privileged position to increase his wealth, even though the information he has is dated at best and probably inaccurate for the situation in Iraq as it exists today, since he is no longer privvy to the current stream of sensitive information there.
Here’s another fact for you.
On 9-11-2001, there were thousands upon thousands of people of Middle Eastern extraction dancing in the streets celebrating the murders of thousands of Americans on their own soil.
Not only were they celebrating in the Middle East, they were celebrating in the predominantly Middle-Eastern neighborhoods of Patterson and Newark, NJ. I know a retired NJ policeman who was called back to duty to provide cover for the riotous celebrations in these cities, while much of the full-time force were in NYC helping at the WTC.
Not all of them participated in the celebrations, you may say, but where are the condemnations of such revelry in the pain of others from their spiritual and community leaders?
