Have you lurked for any length of time on FR? I would say not, as most FR posters would know that socialistworkers.org is probably not a very reputable source for news.
It is my opinion that your post was intended solely as a slam against our Secretary of State, Hilary Clinton, but cleverly veiled as a slam against the USA, in order to “match your bona fides” with the people on FR. That’s exactly what I would expect from a site called “socialistworkers.org”.
Granted, she is not the most popular person on FR, but it seems to me your post is only intended to draw the ire of the Hilary bashers. And further, to bash the humanitarian efforts of the United States to give urgent aid to the people of Haiti. As I’m sure you are aware, if you have been reading the news at all, we have come under recent fire for not doing enough to help the dire humanitarian efforts in Haiti.
Considering that the United States of America has just earmarked upwards of $180 million to Haiti, not to mention the deploying of almost 20,000 of our finest troops, plus the Carl Vinson and her sailors, plus the Bataan and her sailors and Marines, plus the hospital ship Comfort, etc., etc, etc, to help alleviate their suffering, your post seems petty.
So please, don’t come on to FR today, and post your BS about a pantsuit controversy from a BS site, that is pure BS, and expect anyone here to take your seriously. Hundreds of thousands of real people have died, or been seriously injured in a disastrous earthquake in Haiti and you post crap about a pansuit. My God. I’m reeling at your crassness.
And, you dare to quibble about a “conservative approved” publication??? You, sir, (or madam) are an ass!
>>It is my opinion that your post was intended solely as a slam against our Secretary of State, Hilary Clinton, but cleverly veiled as a slam against the USA…”
Slam against the USA? Are you serious? The article shows how the left puts politics above helping Haitians. Re-read that last sentence so you don’t miss anything.
>>Granted, she is not the most popular person on FR, but it seems to me your post is only intended to draw the ire of the Hilary bashers. And further, to bash the humanitarian efforts of the United States to give urgent aid to the people of Haiti.<<
Bash the humanitarian efforts? If I wanted to do that, what would I care about somebody holding up relief from landing at a one-runway airport? If you cared at all about Haitians, you would be alarmed at someone holding up relief efforts for a photo-op, but you can’t seem to grasp this central point.
>>As I’m sure you are aware, if you have been reading the news at all, we have come under recent fire for not doing enough to help the dire humanitarian efforts in Haiti.<<
Really, you lead with hominem attacks too much. I subscribe to three newspaper and scan/read dozens of online news sources. Your haughty presumptuousness that people are not as well-read as you makes you look silly and a bit insecure.
>>Considering that the United States of America has just earmarked upwards of $180 million to Haiti…[SNIP -— Post goes on like this]…etc., etc, etc, to help alleviate their suffering, your post seems petty.<<
No, no, no, no. How is pointing out that relief efforts may have been held up for a cheap photo-op petty? The United States is the most generous country on the planet. We agree on that.
>>So please, don’t come on to FR today, and post your BS about a pantsuit controversy from a BS site, that is pure BS, and expect anyone here to take your seriously.<<
It’s not a “pantsuit controversy.” The fact that a political stunt may have held up relief effort deserves more attention, does it not?
>>Hundreds of thousands of real people have died, or been seriously injured in a disastrous earthquake in Haiti and you post crap about a pansuit. My God. I’m reeling at your crassness.<<
Again, it’s not about the pantsuit. It’s about holding up relief efforts. Where is the crassness in that? You make unwarranted assumptions and are off an running. Your imagination bears you along.
>>And, you dare to quibble about a “conservative approved” publication??? You, sir, (or madam) are an ass!<<
Again with the insults. You remind me on an old Soviet babushka in an apartment lobby scolding everyone who comes along.
