I wonder if that is what is behind the obvious hatred of those on the
far right here for those who do not share their beliefs. That those of
us who do not share your political beliefs, beliefs you believe are
universal, make you nervous, at least subconsciously, and you strike out
at us.

Wow, I didn't know that voicing an opposing opinion showed a sign of
hateful paranoia.

Why don't you leave the 'striking ' to JPS and Frogwatch. Well that
really couldnt' be fair, because Frog actually does put forth a
boating post occasionally.

Tim, I don't strike because other's thoughts make me nervous about my
own beliefs. I strike because I don't suffer fools lightly and there
are a gaggle of fools frequenting rec.boats. Most of them are in my
bozo bin but I still occassionally see their comments.

You don't have a bozo bin.

Most of these idiots supported Bush's wars, think Obama is a muslim,
think liberals are out to destroy the country. They deserve a good
thrashiing for their willful ignorance. I'm standing by to oblige.

The same wars that Obama has increased the troop levels.

Decreased combat troops to zero in Iraq. Increase them in Afg. which
is where they should have been to begin with.


Is Gitmo closed?

Did Bush authorize torture? That's the problem.

Are the detainees at Gitmo being tried in Military Tribunals or
Civilians courts?

Soon to be yet again.

There are plenty here who I also disagree with but they're not prickly
assholes flinging wild statements. I enjoy those exchanges because
they can and have expanded my own thinking.

You suffer from from severe paranoia as Harry explained.

You're delusional.

And, as far as boats are concerned, there are many who have
significantly more experience than I so most of my interest is in
listening rather than spouting.

Except when it comes to fine German screw drivers, which you are the
expert.
