“There is an old song which asserts that “the best things in life are free”. Not true! Utterly false! This was the tragic fallacy which brought on the decadence and collapse of the democracies of the twentieth century; those noble experiments failed because the people had been led to believe that they could simply vote for whatever they wanted… and get it, without toil, without sweat, without tears.” - Robert Heinlein, “Starship Troopers”

...”Americans had bad information from GW Bush & Co about going into Iraq. It was a deliberate denial of, and alteration of information concerning justification for military action. Most of us were supporting something for reasons that in reality didn’t exist.”...

BS. DNC talking points.

Admin, I have a question for you: I poked a little fun at this guy, nothing too big. I got a reasonable response via freepmail from this guy, then an "F U buddy" like an hour later, with no response from me in the interim.

Normally I would be tearing this guy a new one, following him and mocking the crap outta him. Right? Making his Freeper Life miserable!

But I'm trying to be a better guy. So what do I do?
