Jonbouy
I was just responding to the usual "America is an evil country" claptrap that always pops up in response to stuff like this.
It's not something I've ever thought, let alone something I would say, nor can I honestly think of anyone that I know that would think it or say it either.
As with many of your generalizations it doesn't hold up in comparison to the high regard many outside of the US have for the American nation. Of course it has it's enemies but what nation doesn't?
No you're right I should leave you to it, after all leaving you with your need for self-importance, weight and influence on World events fulfilled on a specialist back-water of the internet is probably more healthy than having you in a position where you could do any real harm.
I just wish you'd do it somewhere else because I generally enjoy this place and it's a bit of a drag and all that.
But by all means have at it!
Also it's many years since I've been bothered whether somebody likes me or not, it's kind of inevitable that when you become true to yourself that you ain't gonna please everyone else. It's very liberating, I highly recommend it.
Of course I never claimed that everyone hates America, I was just responding to one specific person who was taking that slant. Be honest Jonbouy. Like many people, I make comments, have opinions, respond to other people's opinions. There is nothing wrong with that whatsoever. But because I've gotten into political arguments with you (in which you have disregarded the forum's TOS as much as anyone, let's be honest), it seems that you're going to take umbrage every time I express a view that you don't like. I would just get over it mate, all that pent up bitterness is going to eat you up inside.
The funniest part of all this is where you accuse me of politicizing a thread in which you were so respectfully "paying your respects to Margaret Thatcher," when in reality you were just using the thread to take a politicized swing at her (
"Personally I think it her greatest credit to us all was by giving us the clear opportunity to see that greed ultimately will eat itself."). Hilarious! You are one of the biggest hypocrites on this forum.
And you're also an extremely nasty and unpleasant person. "Reporting me to Cakewalk" for expressing political views, when you've done exactly the same yourself? Launching personal attacks on me because you've got some pathetic grudge? I'll say it now and get it over with: you're scum. I bet your neighbors loathe you
