marichiko, I don’t seem to be in the best of spirits presently, I am tired and its impossible to sleep. Your post lifted me. Thank you. For what it is worth, coming from an arrogant Canadian, you are a good man.

or Woman?

Woman. If you came to the Cellar to get your spirits lifted by liberal Americans, I'm afraid you may be disappointed. But Cellar Dwellars do come in just about every political flavor and are always up for a good flame war. It passes the time.

Jeez, Beestie, at least get your facts straight. I don't live in Boulder, which thanks to the presence of the University of Colorado, is a cess pool of bleeding heart liberals. I live down south in Focus of the Family Land. You'd adore this county for its arch Republican make-up. Therefore, your quote should have been:

That's OK, you don't have to thank me. :p

I saw your pic, incredible environment. You look very happy.

I am noticing the variety here. Gives me the freedom to be me. (Potentially, I have that pretentious mask on as I usually do when I walk into an unfamiliar room.) I am good at what I do, and I bore easily. I have been on forums where the posters were consistently ultra left wing Marxist feminists or others sights where the rednecks pass around a bottle of JD, or my fave, closets bacs. Within five minutes I can pigeon hole them. Not so here, plus you all have a certain respect for one another which transcends your political doctrines.
I like it here and I hope you can tolerate my arrogant facade long enough to get to know me.
(The jury is still deliberating whether it is a facade or not.)

I guess I've figured out from context what "bac" means, but what's it short for?

*sigh* He's older, he's Jewish, he's depressed and, if that weren't enough, he's arrogant.

Just the kind I go for!
In a perfect world, we would've hooked up, but, now, *SIGH*, we never will.

You are pretty insightful, fuck the iggy, I never iggy anybody whoe can see through at least 66 layers of my persona. Square that and you will be close to knowing me.

The odor I get off of this guy is 'crank.' Like tw, he is ruled by his resentments, and his resentments border on hysteria, as his "about me, and I hate Bush" post shows.

I don't think anybody has any business hating on somebody who breaks two totalitarian regimes while in office. That's the action of colossally stupid people. Or of people who just can't cope with human liberty -- but now I'm repeating myself.

Afghanistan had its largest poppy crop in its history, supplying the world with eighty six percent of its opium. The War Lords are crying all the way to the bank.

Seems you are a fan of Anarchy re both Afghanistan and Iraq. Anybody can break anything, (who breaks two totalitarian regimes.) Fixing it take brains and there definitely is a lack there of. He has not a clue how to fix it. He cannot stay, he cannot leave, and worst of all, he cannot even steal their oil. Four billion dollars a week, out of your pockets, for the troops to do absolutely nothing, other than being killed.

At least now I know your standards, if you have any at all is the question. You do the clone thingy pretty well, but then again all clones do the clone thingy pretty well.

Answer me two things, Urbane Guerrilla, please, where are the WMDs, not the WP and Napalm the American troops are using, and do you remember that guy OBL?

Beestie, you missed yet another entity that cheated Marichiko.

dov, we have previously and thoroughly debunked the 100k figure. I know that won't mean anything to you.

Been there, done that, including the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health, Lancet study.

Impossible for you to have done so, come to a decisive conclusion on either side of the coin. It matters greatly to me. I have not a clue as to why you would say, I know that won't mean anything to you.

Gen. Tommy Franks, the top officer in the U.S. Central Command for the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, summed up the American military's attitude when he told reporters during the Afghan campaign, "We don't do body counts.
Iraqis Murdered"

I must have taken part in over 3000 wasted posts on the topic. I hold that at least 100k Iraqi citizen were murdered by the Americans. There is nothing you can do, say, or cut and paste, which will alter my position. I will not attempt to prove my belief.

What upsets me the most is when even one murdered Iraqi child becomes a number, a stat.

Say what you will, you've got to admire someone who refuses to change his position NO MATTER WHAT sort of information he's given to the contrary. That's what my mom calls 'stick-to-it-tiveness'.

If America did, in some strange parallel universe default we're *all* screwed.
That's my 2c, in Australian dollars.
