what I think is ridiculous is THIS from your post:
"your false opinion that supporting someone voting against those things, is equal to shooting women in the head who don't wear a cover over it, and executing gays for being "defective" as well as other human atrocities committed by alQeda."
I DO accuse you of voting for people who did not support civil rights. I do accuse you of voting against a state constitutional amendment that would remove racist language from the Alabama constitution. You yourself have admitted as much.
You point out differences in degree only...not in kind. Please tell me how allowing two gays to marry is an EXTRA right simply because their genitalia is the same.
Because no two people with the same genitalia are currently allowed to marry, gay or not! That's how! My position on gay marriage does not equal discrimination against gay people, much less, discrimination to the point of advocating they be executed for being inferior, as alQaeda believes. You are throwing out a red herring here, and it has no basis in this debate.
I have also NOT voted for anyone who did not support Civil Rights! The state measure you speak of, has been discussed, and I thoroughly explained my rationale for my vote, and it was NOT because I advocate discrimination against blacks or any racist viewpoint. The specific legislation in question contained a hidden tax increase, which the governor had already vetoed and vowed not to let the Democratic state legislature pass! They slipped it into a phony bill regarding the "removal of racist language" in our state constitution, a document that is the longest constitution in the world at over 700 pages, in hopes of getting the tax increase they wanted anyway! It was a dirty Democratic TRICK to get a tax increase, and it was REJECTED by the people of my state resoundingly. I'm sorry if you personally view that as a "racist" sentiment on my part, but it has been explained to you, and it was not as you like to claim. Regardless, that has absolutely NOTHING to do with the topic we are debating, it is yet another cheesy attempt to divert the topic and excuse deplorable violations of human rights by impugning my character.
I have no problem with you speaking out against injustice. I encourage you to speak out about it. I merely discourage your attempting to foist your irrational and inconsistent attitudes on our country's foreign policy and your willingness to use other American citizen's blood to advance your views when you yourself - even after being cured from your mysterious blood disorder - never found the time to put your OWN life in harm's way for your country.
My blood disorder in 1978 has nothing to do with this debate, my service or lack of service, has nothing to do with this debate! You don't have the right to tell me what my rights are! Nothing about MY attitudes are inconsistent or irrational, however, as I have pointed out, yours certainly are!
That would make sense to the western mind... odd that it doesn't seem to work out that way very often. As I said before.... sunny cool summer days increase attendance at Red Sox games. That does NOT mean that Baseball is "ABOUT" weather.
It's working out that way for about 85% of the Iraqi general public at present. Perhaps it's as you claim, they are disillusioned with the hopelessness of radical Islam and seek the promise of economic equity through western-style democracy? THAT makes sense! What you tried to argue is devoid of logic. This has nothing to do with baseball games, please stay on topic.
if you really want to stand up and fight against evil, why don't you go do it and quit blathering about it from the comfort and safety of your home office? And you call ME a coward???? :lmao:
Yes, I call you a moral coward because that is what you are! For your own petty selfish reasons, you refuse to acknowledge the evil of radical Islam and the need for us to stand united against it. Instead, you want to prop up phony excuses and reasons we should continue to allow it to thrive and grow, and pretend it is our own fault it is happening in the first place. You are perfectly okay with these thugs torturing women and children, executing homosexuals, and denying people any personal freedom at all! As long as you don't have to get your hands dirty, as long as you don't have to allow your tax dollars to be spent to combat it! You couldn't care less about these people, you're completely hung up in your own little insulated world, where you can claim to be some big shot and impugn the integrity of others at will.
When it comes to what you are, "moral coward" is putting it nicely!
