With all due, but flagging respect, I've posted repeatedly in great
detail rebutting Walt's continual repetitive (that's redundant, I
know) assertions.

Now, you, George Z and the ubiquitous and inane Walt, have entered a
circle jerk in which the three of you keep echoing the mindless drivel
of one-liners that have been rebutted in great detail by many of us
here.

Speaking for only myself, I wonder if it occurs to you that I don't really give
a **** either how you characterize what I say on any specific subject or that
you consider your detailed rebuttals at all convincing. Your calling it a
circle jerk seems to imply that we've gotten together to annoy you with our
mindless drivel of one-liners. You know that that is total nonsense....you're
dealing with three unrelated people who independently agree that, on this
subject, you don't know what you're talking about.

I get the point. You don't agree with the President.....

Congratulations. You noticed.

.....You think that Kerry is a hero because he got wounded three times.....

I challenge you to produce one thing I've said that relates Kerry's wounds
(however superficial they may have been) with any event in which he was involved
that resulted in the issuance of awards to him that involved heroism. Produce
one!!!

You neither know me nor do you know what I think about Kerry or much of anything
else.

.....You ignore the Winter Soldier testimony and you accept the fact that all
of us who
fought in Vietnam were war criminals guilty of atrocity.

Wrong again. Produce one thing I've ever posted where I said "all of us who
fought in Vietnam were war criminals guilty of atrocity" (sic).

At this point I'll let you vote the way you wish, but fervently hope
that you'll wake up tomorrow morning, have a hot cup of coffee, and
begin to engage in meaningful, intelligent dialog. I also hope to win
the lottery this week.

It's very generous of you to allow me to vote however I wish, which fortunately
is somewhat akin to giving me something I already have. It's also nice of you
to wish that I wake up tomorrow morning, and have a hot cup of coffee, neither
of which should put much strain on your wishing capabilities. As for engaging
in meaningful, intelligent dialog, I always do that.....for those who fail to
perceive that, it's their loss. As for the lottery, I've been trying for twice
a week for years, and the best I've ever been able to do by way of winnings is
fifty bucks. I hope you meant a bit more than that.

George Z.
