Um...those "radical" muslims were in Afghanistan. It's not even spelled like
Iraq. Look...Iraq ends in a "Q". See it? Afghanistan ends in a "stan". "Q". "STAN" I put them real close so maybe it would be easier for you to see the difference. mike "Ron Lee" wrote in message ... W is somewhat liberal IMO. He is hardly a Reagan conservative but he does stand by his convictions and is an honorable man. He has done a fair job of fighting the muslim radicals who want to kill Americans but he is wrong on the illegal worker (erroneously called immigration) amnesty program, protecting our borders, Katrina relief, etc Ron Lee |

"Jessica Taylor" wrote in message ... Not at all, thank you for asking. But I speak several other languages, if you'd prefer another. I doubt you'd do any better in some other language. I do just fine. [...] And where can we find this new law of trolling that apparently doesn't need any support other than you say so? It's not a "law of trolling". It's a simple matter of intent. Part of Jay's intent was to troll. That's trolling. Suppose a person mugs another person, killing them in the process. Suppose also that the mugger was looking to a) obtain some property from the other person, and b) murder the other person. Does the fact that they wanted property from the other person negate the fact that their intent was also murder? Do we decide that the mugger was not a murderer, even though they DID intent to murder, simply because they also wanted to obtain property? No, of course not. Your assertion that Jay's other motive somehow obscures this motive to troll is, quite frankly, idiotic. I found Jay's story entertaining and interesting to read. Since you knew that you thought it was just a troll, why would you respond to a troll? I did NOT think it was just a troll, until Jay admitted that it was. In that respect, I admit he was quite successful. There's a true art to trolling, as an effective troll can be accomplished only by hiding the fact that one *is* trolling. Secondly, the word "would" is an English language construct to describe a future outcome. Among other definitions. The other definitions, such as they are, are irrelevant. The "would" with respect to the definition *I* was using is still appropriate, and very much "there". I disagree. I also find it amazing that you think Jay has some crystal ball and knew that you *would* post. No crystal ball is needed when predicting another person's reaction, based on previous experience with that person. It's the reason that, as I said, most of the regulars in this newsgroup are *very* predictable. But in any case, Jay has in so many words admitted that he "knew I would post". I find it remarkable that you would even consider debating that point. Of all the points in this thread, it is the most directly provable, since Jay has written an explicit statement to that effect. The comparison of sharing one's experience with others in a public forum to mugging, stealing, and murdering is quite impressive, if not eccentric. But you like to toss around words like idiotic, so suit yourself. |

And yourself... mike "Jessica Taylor" wrote in message ... The secondary reason was because it was fun to watch the reactions from other posters who are predictable, such as yourself. There was not "would" involved. How so? |

I'll vote in favor of it.
mike "Jessica Taylor" wrote in message ... Peter Duniho wrote: First of all, the presence of any other reason is irrelevant. If trolling was ANY reason for posting according to Jay, then he's trolling. Having other reasons doesn't take away from the desire to troll. And where can we find this new law of trolling that apparently doesn't need any support other than you say so? |

If you can't figure it out by now, you never will. mike "Jessica Taylor" wrote in message ... mike regish wrote: I know. He just exposed them. They've always been like that. They just hid it better. mike "Matt Whiting" wrote in message ... George Bush didn't magically change all Republicans, or even the party, all by himself in the span of 6 years. Exposed what? What are you talking about? "Been like 'that'" --what stereotype are you trying to make? That you are intolerant of others who don't talk and believe and think like you? That wasn't hard to figure out, Mike. |
