> I think iagreewithyou has been suspended from FR

"This account has been banned or suspended."

The basenote wasn't very provocative as trolls go,
just a small straw. Must have triggered some admin
data mining on the account's activities here, and
became the last straw.

[manwiththehands]

That's a great Troll zappin' vid you got there. It's perfect. Too bad he doesn't burst into flames, too. :)

[Knitting A Conundrum]

Not in before the zot. Shucks.

Only a moron would believe that fighting in the mideast would end all attacks here.
True, but that is exactly what we were told: "We have to fight them over there so we don't have to fight them here." I would go as far as to say that only a moron would believe that fighting in the Middle East would not increase attacks here.
______________________________________________________

It is moronic not to be able to understand more than a simple literal interpretation of an idea. The phrase " We have to fight them over there, so we don't have to fight them over here." means that we must fully engage our enemy. We must summon the necessary resources to fully and totally defeat them and incapacitate their threat. This involves attacking their strongholds as they tried to do ours ( 911, London, Bali, world trade 1992, USS Cole, etc.). That does not mean the enemy won't try additional attacks here. The point of the statement refers to the level of forces necessary to prevent their ultimate success. If we merely defend ourselves and our shores the enemy will grow stronger and bolder and the result will be much more destruction to our society and way of life, not only in America, but throughout the world. Why can't you liberal appeasers understand that ?

Well, it's good to see the admins doing their job. Their have been so many multiple postings of news stories lately.

[somerville]

Oops. I meant "There have been", not "Their have been."

[Delta 21]

Hey, its still early!

........tweak...tweak....tweak......

[leadhead]

Isnt it true if we fight them there, they would not come here ?

And you saw them where? And they blew up what?

I'm sure the DHS jumped the gun to make themselves seem relevant.

Trolling for replies, DHS=.....?

[Chode]

Tired of hitting Troll holes BIGGER than J-Lo's ASS???
Then call the RKBA Fast... Pavers UP!!!

Looks like meat's back on the menu boys!!!

[photodawg]

Can't you useful idiot Libs understand what's at stake here?

If you succeed I hope for your sake that your wives and daughters look good in Burkhas and that you enjoy watching them gang-raped!

I think you'd be amazed at the stuff you never see
because they nuke it so fast (or block it in the first
place).

> There have been so many multiple postings of news

Regular readers need to ride herd on that and report
them or post a rely linking the earlier, and include
Admin Moderator in the To: list.

Dupes result from several causes. I'd guess the
prioritized reasons (and there may be others) are:
- same story, different headline in other publications
- search is weak on FR
- simultaneous posting (search wouldn't find anyway)
- people who don't bother to search

What FR needs here is an alerter when posting, advising
the poster that a substantially similar story already
exists, and that perhaps they need to check into it.

[hummingbird]

Do you think they are talking about their Sunday or our Monday?

[somerville]

All good suggestions. They need a full time Alerter.

[NicknamedBob]

Was that Vince, or Larry? I kinda thought it looked like Larry, but it could have been a younger Vince.

Did they lose the basketball?


Darn! Being a Pisces gives one's curiosity so many opportunities to be left unsatisfied.

[Grut]

The joys of troll-zotting aside, it does seem a little odd for the attack to be on a Sunday instead of a work day. Maybe we're supposed to get indignant about terrorists profaning the Sabbath and quit wondering there was a significant threat at all?

[El Gato]

Isnt it true if we fight them there, they would not come here ?

Well, the ones we kill there aren't coming here. I guess we aren't killing enough there. Certainly not as many are coming here, and we are catching at least some, probably most, who try to come here. Often based on information we get from those we capture there, as in this case.

[El Gato]

If hundreds of Bomb blasts go off in New York, will we surrender and retreat from Iraq and Afghanistan,

Some may wish to, but

The Hell We Will

Not this time, it's not 1973 any more, as much as the Code Pinkos and ANSWER types wish it were.

[KylaStarr]

ewww... you smell like ozone

[Delta 21]

They did recover the ball, and yes, it still glows in the dark.

[concretebob]

In response to your tagline...YES!!!!!!!!!
