well, i'll just "turn my face to the wall & pine away" because you don't respect/like me/my opinions.(sarcasm button:ON) you fit right in with the rest of the coven, despite your contention that you're a "neutral". (everybody i know thinks that SILLY claim is FUNNY!)

the feelings you express are TYPICAL of the haters out of the most extreme south-HATING lunatic fringe of FR.

furthermore, i'm not surprised that you regard the common courtesies generally required of gentlemen/ladies as UNimportant. (of course i knew that, given your propensity to be a cyber-stalker.)

frankly, i think "old sarge" is angry with me PRIMARILY because he doesn't like ANYONE disagreeing with him (fwiw, there are LOTS of other people on FR who share that same attitude.). what he said to me sounded like a temper tantrum.

may i gently point out to you/all that i served in the US Army for 20.5 years of active duty & am also retired with about 30 years of combined AUS/USARNG service. thus i'm a veteran TOO & support the soldiers/sailors/airmen/marines FULLY, but do NOT necessarily think that being "in the service of the USA" makes you INFALLIBLE. nor do i think that everyone "in theatre" has 100% knowledge of "all that is true & wonderful".

also, PLEASE do NOT capitalize my screen-name OR the "sw". it's an Indian cultural/quasi-religious thing.

"i pushed the abuse button----"

isn't that special? (one wonders how many times you "pushed the button", when someone made a hate-FILLED,self-righteous,mean-spirited,self-serving,arrogantly ignorant, KNOWINGLY false, vulgar,bigoted or racist comment to anyone else on FR.)

fwiw, i think that pushing the "abuse button" should be discouraged, as "if you can't take the heat, stay out of the kitchen" AND i think "pushing it" is generally SILLY & marks the "pusher" as a "whiner". (fyi, i've NEVER pushed it & don't plan to. i like to think that i'm bigger than that.)

say/think/do what you will. it's called FREEDOM of SPEECH & EXPRESSION.

"turn my face to the wall & pine away"

Don't do it stand!!

More people are becoming involved in posting contrary to your postings and that is definately a good thing!!

I really don't want you gone....you have made such a mockery of some of these threads and til now have done so with impugnity. I think those days are gone.

I too have willingly reported your vitriol several times to no apparent avail previously. But now the mods have taken notice, people have read your fake resume noted below

(post 948 of "Lincoln holiday on its way out (West Virginia)" thread for reference)

and know who you are.......and hopefully these threads can continue with insight (respectful) from both sides and YOU as the entertaining sideshow.

LOL!!!

So whatever happened to that retraction on the "south will rise again" at the United States fall?

Anything??....anything stand???

Then by all means, document them. In this thread. No offense, but I believe that your claims are false and that you are a liar.

It really wouldn't matter if I posted them or not. My posting them could never convince as to their veracity, you'd just claim I made them up. Additionaly, it'd be pretty easy to figure out my name if I did, and lastly I'm not your servant.

It goes back to one point, you believe that innocent civilians - Jews in World War II, my family, yours, the innocents killed by Sherman, Iraqi civilians, those killed 9/11 - are all legitimate targets.

I do not. As the article notes,

"The orders are so valuable because they "show Sherman's intentions, the deliberateness of his movements," Bruns said. "They make it clear that he wasn't going to camp here, and he wasn't going to garrison the city. So he had to destroy the city."
You keep your heros. Sherman admitted that he should have be charged with war crimes.

This has gone on long enough.

Admin Mod, please check this guy's cookies.

I think he's a banned poster -- capitan_refugio, very likely, who was banned by JR personally -- and in any case he's just baiting and flaming someone and not contributing anything to the forum except hate and discontent.

If you're not a zombie, jag, why are you foaming at the mouth about some guy who hasn't posted here in nearly a year? You didn't show up until months later, but you've been going on and on and on about this other guy who hadn't been around for something like five months by the time you showed up.

Admin Mod, please get the hook for this poster. If he's legit, a thousand pardons -- but I've got $20 that says he isn't.

Oh, and if he's a zombie, could we please have a sidecar of the global thermonuclear zot with that for jaguaretype? If it's not any extra trouble.

MEG33, this is how you push the button.

We now return to our regularly scheduled program.

Oh, sorry -- no, it's something he posted to me once, a while ago.

So I took it as a tagline.
