Saner focus (Ithaca barf alert)

[Behind Liberal Lines]

Has there been enough yet said? Has the U.N. adequately said that there is "no smoking gun?" Is it clear that we are not yet in an impending crisis in which the U.S. government and its allies must attack Iraq? Has there yet been enough focus on the negative possibilities of war? Can there be a focus on creation of a safe world?

Wow....

What can I say?

Friends dont let friends write drunk?

Let me try to break this quite possibly drunken (or stoned, this is Ithaca, after all) screed down.

Has there been enough yet said? Has the U.N. adequately said that there is "no smoking gun?"

People like this need to realize that the phrase "no smoking gun" simply means that there is no direct, eyewitness, evidence, not that the perpetrator is innocent or that there is no evidence whatsoever.

People perform "uncompassionate behavior" for one of two reasons: they hurt like hell, or they have it in for somebody else.

I'm sure the author thinks Saddam "hurts like hell," and the President "ha(s) it in for somebody else." I am equally sure that the author would never, ever, admit the truth, which is that Saddam has it in for EVERYONE else.

Look, spell the word "war", backwards! Raw.

Okay, and "God" spelled backwards is "Dog." Your point being?

As an American citizen, I am not represented by this minority president.

I thought CLINTON was the first minority president.

He does not speak for me. He does not support my goals.

Thank God.

Ithaca is the City of Evil.

City of Evil bump

"Would the saner people of this country please come to attention..."

At least he recognizes he is not one of the saner people.

This is one of the more amazing diatribes I have ever seen published. The world continues to get loonier every day. What is it about Ithica that spawns this strangeness? I know that New York State has its pools of liberalism but I also know that much of rural NY, if not conservative, has the ability to think and discuss issues in a rational manner. This guy is irrational to the point of mandatory commitment to a federally funded health care facility for a mental colonoscopy.

[Soaring Feather]

Would the saner people of this country please come to attention and end this craziness so we can focus on compassionate development of one another for the good of the whole and not the good of the hole? Please!

And just who would these "saner people" be? hmmmmmm?? oooooohhh man stuff as this just drives me up a wall!! I have no idea where this thinking comes from...However, in the City of Evil it's the norm not the once in a while loose canon.

What is it about Ithica that spawns this strangeness?

Ithaca is host to two colleges, Cornell U (aptly nick-named "the Big Red") and Ithaca College (which flies the gay flag over its campus), the two major employers in the area. They insure that a disproportionate amount of "ivory tower liberals" dominate the city.

[Movemout]

I get it. Kind of like Berkley-East. Even so there must be some sort of editorial control at the newspaper. Or maybe this guy is the editor which is even scarier. It reads like a flier during the anti-vietnam war era back in the 60s.

And don't forget that some anagrams for "Ithaca is the City of evil" are:
IVY SATIATE CHOICE FILTH,
IVY FACILITATE ECHO SHIT,
and IVY CHAOTIC ATHEIST LIFE.

Ithaca is host to two colleges, Cornell U (aptly nick-named "the Big Red")

And don't forget the Cornell mascot is the bear, reminiscent of the "Russian Bear", keeping with the commie theme. And their hockey team is a bunch of goons.
