Former State Department Chief of Staff Lawrence Wilkerson gives a
talk.

For people interested in the Constitution, like Toad, or those interested in the ways the Government relates with the military, like Wolfala, or just folks like me who are interested in how things work.... this talk won't dissapoint.

is this the entire transcript? Don't have time to listen to it now; very busy this week.

If this is the entire speech, I'll print and read tomorrow.

I just don't have time to listen to the intro guy natter on and on.

How the hell would you find something like this?

It's not the entire speech.

lol...

Whatever. You're a busy guy.

I read way faster than people talk. Way faster.

And the tiny little men talking in the box from far, far away in another place and time don't mesmerize me.

So, if there's a transcript....yeah, I'd prefer that. Funny Financial Times didn't print the entire thing.

Transcript is out.

I'll read it tomorrow; I figured it'd come out in the short term.

You should really watch the guy.

When it comes to politicos, he's refreshingly real.

Way too nerdy to get elected for anything though.

Some are strong on auditory but I'm not one of them. I like to read stuff like this and re-read as I'm reading sometimes.

Nash · « **Reply #10 on:** October 22, 2005, 12:58:02 AM »

Would you quit making excuses for not watching it? I mean fine, okay, really... I don't give a damn.

Toad · « **Reply #11 on:** October 22, 2005, 01:06:36 AM »

I doubt I'll ever watch it. I don't watch CSPAN either.

While I think I'm going to enjoy reading it and it will interest me, the idea of watching the speech interests me not at all.

But since this isn't your view, your "way", I'm somehow "wrong" or "less" or "making excuses" right?

Nash · « **Reply #12 on:** October 22, 2005, 01:17:31 AM »

Nope - you're just lazy.

Vocal, but lazy.

Sandman · « **Reply #13 on:** October 22, 2005, 01:22:55 AM »

You two are almost as fun as lazs2 and Beet1e.

Let me get this strait. I just wanna be sure I'm reading this correctly. Nash is calling Toad lazy for reading the transcript of the speech, rather than watching the video? Do I have that correct? Really? Nash, go take a walk or something.
