nash you are re-enforceing everything everyone allready thinks of liberal socialists...  

you have a very plain agenda to make republicans look bad enough that democrats seem allmost a reasonable alternative.

You think that you are being sneaky and appear fair an openm minded about it and that no one notices how dishonest you are about your real agenda.   That is right out of the commie handbook.

So tell us.... what should we do?  You tell us how bad the republicans or some republicans are at every opportunity but...

I see no solutions from you?   are you afraid that your solutions will look even worse than the republican rot you point out?

Of course you are.   That is just plain dishonest... it isn't clever and.... the end does not justify the means.   I know you are smart enough to understand what you are doing so it disgusts me.

I would have a lot more respect if you were a lot more upfront about your agenda.

I may not agree with the right wingers on this board but they are refreshingly candid compared to you..

There are a few honest lefties here but....

you ain't one of em.

That is correct, I went with what my former commander told me. That was part of my decision process and it was a factor. Unlike some fence sitters, I did take a position.

And now you're gonna sit here and have us all believe that your bets were motivated by nothing other than to force the fence sitters amongst us to put their money where their mouth was?

Review the 10bears thread; that's what it was. It was "I call".

Finally, it's great that you post all these quotes of yours in an attempt to put distance between yourself and this mess. While I respect your writing ability, Toad, I aint about to let you rewrite history.


The nice thing is I don't have to rewrite history. That is what I wrote and the dates are part of the posts on the BBS. There are many more posts in that vein that I didn't link. I think they show "where I was" pretty clearly. I think the copy of the letter you got that I sent to all our politicians showed what I thought.

If there's any rewriting to be done, it's you rewriting your idea of what my position was. You complain about folks that won't look at the facts... check the mirror.

Silly me, though.

The more I hear him talk about what he didn't do, the more I lose respect for him.


Good for you! See, if you'd have posted this with the first post, there could have been discussion.

Powell failed the nation but likely only because he tried to "work within the system". With the prestige he had, he might have made a difference if he "went public" and maybe even quit.

However, he always was a "political general".

Now, that worked so well, let's move on to your point two, "The Generals Revolt".

So what's your postion on that? What importantance do you attach to it?

About 3 weeks ago I went to a client conference with an investment firm. On one of the days, Colin Powell was the keynote speaker after lunch. Good fortune to me (or we have 3/4 of billion with the investment firm), I was at the lunch table with Colin before he spoke.

Very interesting person & truely amazing. Definately a man of high integrity and high morals. From the discussion, it came across he had no regrets of presentation made to the UN, acting on the best information available. Also no regrets the US went into Iraq, thinks it is definately good to get rid of Sadam & good for long term middle east. He says only regret is US didn't keep up with massive force & squash insurgancies before they had chance to get foothold.

He said he had absolutely no plans to run for a public office. He bought a corvette & is having too much fun. He is now involved with some venture capital firm, probably making a boatload of $$.

Wow what a great thread, started by the coolest guy on the board.


We get it Nash, you are smarter then the people you don't agree with and like to bash.

We get it man, you are more well read and logical then the people you don’t agree with and don't like.

We get it, you KNOW how things work and the people who do not agree with you are blind fools, scared little girls clinging to their mommies.


We get it, you are the are the stand out, the god among geeks, the artsy guy who is going to show all those trailer trash lesser humans how stupid and petty and scared they are when they do not agree with you.

Now that you have made it very clear that you feel you are, smarter, better, worldlier, trendier, hipper, groovier, more level headed, then everyone who does not agree with you maybe you can post something interesting?

Yup - I see it the same as you, Yeager.

With the looming elections, this isn't so much a demotion as it is a transfer.
