But now I feel thoroughly disappointed with the behavior of several people here I once looked up to. Believe it or not, this includes you Randall- I looked up to you for creating this site, and for choosing one of the most beautiful quotes from Gooberz on the home page.....etc.

Just because I am brave enough to give people my honest opinions, or air my concerns, does not mean I have no respect. I truly feel I have always made an effort to keep it as respectful as possible. This is not easy over the internet- after all, all we have are words to go by. You can't hear a person's tone of voice or see their body language, etc. So I can understand how these misunderstandings arise so often.

I am disappointed at the biases here. Now some people may say this includes me, but actually I wouldn't be doing something only for that reason. So people can think what they like. As we have seen by their recent posts, BlueRoamer and AG are only interested in thinking for themselves, and I feel they made some very good points.

When I speak of biases, I am not applying this to everyone, as I feel there are indeed some who are making at least an effort to see things from different sides.

I don't know why you had to bring up posting on GG thread again, Randall- that has been done and dusted. Apologies have been made, and I believe she would rather move on now than have people keep bringing it up.......

Why am I even bothering to type this up....I don't know.

At the end of the day, we all have our opinions.

None of us are perfect.

Tell Me Congress Isn't Full of Socialists and Communists
True, Hillary and O'Bomber are both in Congress as is Bernie Sanders. The "Progressive Caucus" is a socialist group of congressional members including Nancy Pee-lousi.

Hillary's Radical Skeletons
True. Hillary studied at the feet of a dedicated communist agitator and activist and wrote her thesis based on his birdbrained communist theories...Saul Alinsky.

Who Would the Terrorists Vote For??
True. Top terrorist leaders have expressed a preference for the cut and run cowardly demoscats...going back to the 2004 elections.

Conservatives Almost Twice as Happy as Leftists
True. Leftists spend their days and nights screeching in fits of juvenile rage that America won't accept their vision of a socialist gulag state. I'm a conservative and I'm very happy, especially when I'm kicking lying leftist as$es. Other conservatives I know are equally happy.

Top Psychiatrist Concludes Liberals Clinically Nuts
True. Dr Rossiter delivered that opinion. He cited the reasons which propelled him to his clinical diagnosis of the Clinically Nuts status of liberals. For reasons of brevity, most people lump liberals and leftists into the same category. Leftists are really socialists and communists...like Hillary and O'Bomber. Liberals are reasonable, loveable, truthful, love America, love the rule of law..etc, etc, etc. Liberals are everything good which leftists most certainly are not.

I don't see anyone whine more than you, Jwhop. Every one of your anti-Democrat/Left/Leftist posts/threads indicates your inability to cope with the more popular party in American politics. You don't like it, you campaign against them, you show no tolerance for them whatsoever. To accuse those who do no such railing against your party of whining is highly hypocritical on your part.

On Children
Kahlil Gibran

Your children are not your children.
They are the sons and daughters of Life's longing for itself.
They come through you but not from you,
And though they are with you yet they belong not to you.

You may give them your love but not your thoughts,
For they have their own thoughts.
You may house their bodies but not their souls,
For their souls dwell in the house of tomorrow,
which you cannot visit, not even in your dreams.
You may strive to be like them,
but seek not to make them like you.
For life goes not backward nor tarries with yesterday.

The Holy Longing
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

posted May 06, 2008 02:54 PM            

"Truth is infinitely more than scientific correctness. Communication, too, points to this more.
Communication is the way to truth in all its forms. Thus the intellect finds clarity only in discussion."

"If my lectures do not come even close to satisfying these demands, it is still essential that the ideal of one's concerns be recognized. One can take courage to try to do that which passes beyond his strength from the fact that it is a human problem, and man is that creature which poses problems beyond his powers. And also from this, that whoever even once thought he heard softly the authentic philosophic note, can never tire of trying to communicate it."

"There is something in me which might have been great,
but due to the unfavorable market, I am only worth a little."

"When, in a generation, a thunderstorm begins to threaten, individuals like me appear."

~ Soren Kierkegaard

"Nietzsche knew himself to be an exception, spoke 'in favor of the exception, so long as it never wants to become the rule'.
He required of the philosopher 'that he take care of the rule, since he is the exception.'"

"This exceptionality, which was as excruciating to them as it was the unique requirement of their problem,
they characterized -- and here again they agree -- as pure mentality, as though they were deprived of any authentic life.
Kierkegaard said that he was 'in almost every physical respect deprived of the conditions for being a whole man.'
He had never lived except as mind. He had never been a man: at very most, child and youth. He lacked 'the animal side of humanity'.
His melancholy carried him almost to the 'edge of imbecility' and was 'something that he could conceal as long as he was independent,
but made him useless for any service where he could not himself determine everything'."

"Nietzsche experienced his own pure mentality as 'through excess of light, through his radiance, condemned to be, not to love,'.
He expressed it convulsively in the 'Nightsong' of Zarathustra: 'Light I am; ah! would that I were NIGHT!... I live in my own light...'"

"Nietzsche compared himself to a fir tree on the heights overlooking an abyss:
'Lonely! Who dares to be a guest here? Perhaps a bird of prey, gloating in the hair of the branches....'.
And Kierkegaard: 'Like a lonely fir tree, egotistically isolated, looking toward something higher,
I stand alone, throwing no shadow, only the wood dove building its nest in my branches.'"

"Nietzsche compared himself to the 'scratchings which an unknown power makes on paper, in order to test a new pen'.

The positive value of his illness is his standing problem.

Kierkegaard thought he indeed 'would be erased by God's mighty hand, extinguished as an unsuccessful experiment.'
... He felt like an 'interjection in speaking, without influence upon the sentence.'"

~ Karl Jaspers
Kierkegaard And Nietzsche

posted May 06, 2008 02:56 PM            

Kierkegaard called it Providence. He recognized the divine in it: 'That everything that happens, is said, goes on, and so forth, is portentious: the factual continually changes itself to mean something far higher.' The factual, for him, is not something to abstract oneself from, but rather something to be penetrated until God himself gives the meaning. Even what he himself did became clear to him only later. It was 'the extra which I do not owe to myself but to Providence. It shows itself continually in such a fashion that even what I do out of the greatest possible conviction, afterwards I understand far better,'.

Nietzsche called it Chance. And he was concerned to use chance. For him 'sublime chance' ruled existence. 'The man of highest spirituality and power feels himself grown for every chance, but also inside a snowfall of contingencies,'. But this contingency increasingly took on, for Nietzsche, a remarkable meaning: 'What you call chance -- you yourself are that which befalls and astonishes you,'. Throughout his life, he found intimations of how chance events which were of the greatest importance to him carried a secret meaning, and in the end he wrote: 'There is no more chance,'."

I catch you in the most egregious spinning, and this is what you believe of yourself? It's laughable really.

---

Absolutely. If you had any peace about it you wouldn't feel compelled to post so prolifically. There's a lot of security in having confidence in your beliefs. I don't get that from you, though. What I get is an overwhelming nervousness that the Left may be right about something, and you trying your best to prevent anyone from gaining a positive perspective on the Left. Of course, in the process you make the Left look positive in that they aren't nearly as vitriolic as you, so you really shoot yourself in the foot as far as I'm concerned.

..."the people's right to know"? What I'm doing acoustic is acting in the greatest traditions of the "people's right to know" and I'm telling the truth about them.

That's the silliest notion you've come up with in quite awhile. You've never had a chance at kicking my butt. It's never been put on the table for you to take advantage of. Quite a few people here have tried only to find me more resilient than they imagined.

When I watch you come, baby, I just want to run far away
You're not the kind of person around I want to stay
When I see you walking down the street
I step on your hands and I mangle your feet
You're not the kind of person that I want to meet
Baby, oh you're so vicious, you're so vicious

Vicious, you hit me with a flower
You do it every hour
Oh, baby you're so vicious
Vicious, hey why don't you swallow razor blades
You must think that I'm some kind of gay blade
But baby, you're so vicious

When I see you coming I just have to run
You're not good and you certainly aren't very much fun
When I see you walking down the street
I step on your hand and I mangle your feet
You're not the kind of person that I'd even want to meet
'Cause you're so vicious, baby, you're so vicious
Vicious, vicious...

We filed slowly, languidly into the hall
The auditorium was vast and silent
As we seated and were darkened, the voice continued.

The program for this evening is not new
You've seen this entertainment through and through
You've seen your birth your life and death
you might recall all of the rest
Did you have a good world when you died?
Enough to base a movie on?

I'm getting out of here
Where are you going?
To the other side of morning
Please don't chase the clouds, pagodas

Her **** gripped him like a warm, friendly hand.

It's alright, all your friends are here
When can I meet them?
After you've eaten
I'm not hungry
Oh, we meant beaten
