gee, I'm so hostile
(this was the post to which she is referring, my response to the idiot who was whining about the "war on terror":

I see you have not yet gotten it through your head that there cannot be a war on a NOUN, or a state of mind, if one doesn't understant the word "noun". it's just about as stupid as talking about the "war" on christmas" or the "war" on democracy" or any other blatant deliberate misuse and obfuscation of the language and the typical rhetoric of those who assume that the rest of us don't understand what they are doing.



by the way, let us refer to the situation in iraq exactly--it is not a "war", since congress has never officially declared it such. the maladministration, and its mouthpieces on the right, actually have gotten something correct, when they refer to this unending horror as OCCUPATION. look it up."

. . . .


"May I ask why you are so incredibly hostile about everything, no matter what? You must be very young, and have been badly hurt by someone, to react with such venom no matter whom, no matter what. It isn't a show of fervor, adult behavior, true beliefs, etc, to always react to any post with such venom. It's more a sign of someone who can't control themselves, who is immature in thought and action, who has yet to learn respect at any level for any idea that differs from their own. Rarely do you post anything rational; it all seems to require your response be as vitriolic and as venomous as you can possibly make it. I feel very sorry for you - you must lead a very lonely, depressing life if the only emotion you demonstrate is anger. I've known a few people like that in my life....all of whom were very miserable people and had no success in making friends, maintaining relationships, or even just living from day to day without alienating someone. What a sad, sad life. "
. . . . . . .

don't you all feel incredibly sorry for me?

1. "What a sad, sad life. " she said with melodramatic flair...
or so she thinks :rofl:


She couldn't think of a synonym for 'venom'?

2. Typical.
Freepers and neocons never speak to the facts. I've seen this thousands of times (no kidding)... in every kind of political discussion.

You come armed with facts and the psychos go off in some disfunctional personal attack.

I guess when they go off like that it means you won.

3. or, as we say, "you can't engage in a battle of wits with an unarmed
opponent"

my standard response to something like this is, "OH, how EVER will I bear up under your disapproval?"
I'm pretty sure they don't get it.
