Belongs right in response to your quote. Apparently your memory of 5 minutes ago is *****

Recap for the obvious Alzheimers dude, Lendaddy.

Rodeo:
I know on this board, for instance, that opposing warrantless spying on Americans is considered "far left," but I also know that when the country returns to normal, that position will be viewed as a prefectly normal, even conservative viewpoint.

Lendaddy:
That's not at all the argument and you know it. The question is one of wartime surveillance of enemy calls to/from our country. This is not even remotely close to the tipping point you paint it to be.

Level-headed people understand this, and your irrational response is what makes you extreme. The fact that you don't even accurately summarize the dispute makes you extreme..... your amazingly generous helpings of unwarranted drama and hyperbole make you extreme....

Cool_Chick
That's such bull. The WHOLE ISSUE is WARRANTLESS and you KNOW IT......

Don't bother CC ... when you argue with a radical, it makes you look like a radical yourself.

Ask me how I know

I'll quote myself for you coolie. What say you?

lendaddy · 10-31-2006, 09:21 AM

Anyway, my point is that this could be discussed in a rational way...but when Rodeo misrepresents what we're even talking about what's the point? Back in an hour or so....

I'm staying in my corner for this one.

It took me 5,000 posts, but I have learned something

scottmandue · 10-31-2006, 09:41 AM

I am at one with my duality.

lendaddy · 10-31-2006, 10:41 AM

Coolio? No answer to my question?

Wait, I got one...

Is the visable presence of a Wild Turkey Bottle in the passenger seat grounds for an assumed warrant to search a car?

If it means an all-out search for the hopefully now-nekkid female passenger, then yes.

Rodeo · 10-31-2006, 10:49 AM

WILD TURKEY SUCKS.

How's that for bias?

"I know on this board, for instance, that opposing warrantless spying on Americans is considered "far left," but I also know that when the country returns to normal, that position will be viewed as a prefectly normal, even conservative viewpoint."

Or opposition of the suspension of, lets say, habeus corpus. Color me radical.

Agreed

But how about a warrantless search of my person just because I crossed the yellow line?

Chicky?

We'll just color you Canadian, hows that?

Only if it's an open bottle... ha ha... got you on that one... neener neener.

My 911 is biased toward the rear. As long as she's hot.

Rodeo · 10-31-2006, 11:26 AM

This thread went to ***** without my participation ... let that be a lesson to all of you

True, and only if the guy on the other end of the phone is a terrorist.

Jim Richards · 10-31-2006, 11:37 AM

Hot rear? Who? No, don't even think of mentioning snowman!

Why are so many people convinced that their view is absolutely correct and anyone who does not believe the same way are somehow flawed? Could this aspect of humanity be its ultimate downfall?

I know what you mean and Pelican is just a small mirror of society. Narrow mindedness (is that the correct term?) is among the most intolerable traits in my book. It´s a stone age strategy that very much limits the possibilities for further development in any given situation.

Are you being intolerant of my intolerance?
