Frankly, Jonathan, I don't give a damn what you think.

Then why on earth do you keep responding? It's pretty clear that you DO
care a
great deal what Jonathan thinks.

Ah, yes. I never had much success persuading children that the stories
told
by the Brothers Grimm were fantasy either. If someone wants to believe a
fairy tale there's no point in trying to persuade him otherwise.

I agree with you. People see what they *want* to see.

I see that many of Bush's friends (and family) are making millions of
dollars out of Iraq.
I see that *no* WMD have been found.
I see that Saddam had *no* links with Al Qaeda.
I see that the world is becoming more dangerous as a result of Bush's
arrogance.

What do you see, Dave?

Do you see an eloquent, well spoken, President?
Do you see an end to International terrorism?
Do you see an increase in civil liberties?

Wow! I smell another beautiful conspiracy theory here, DOD in bed with Glaxo-Welcome,
got kind of a nice ring to it doesn't it? Do you suppose we could get Mel Gibson
to do another movie?

I the chanting of your mantra as totally unresponsive to the question I
asked.

I really hate to burst your bubble - but you didn't actually ask a question.
Did you?

Are you some sort of communist?

Unless, that is,

Who cares if the Clinton administration was corrupt? At least they kept Al
Qaeda out of New York.

Sounds to me like you have your own "disease," which has nothing

Donal, you seem to be catching Ganz's disease. What I said was:

Do you suppose that might be relevant in determining whether the
decision to
use the pills was motivated solely by profit as Doug hallucinates?

That looks to me like a question. Anyway that's what the funny little
thingy
at the end is supposed to indicate.

So you did indeed intend to say that the DOD was on the take from the
pharmaceutical industry during the Clinton administration? I expect there
are some folks who would have a keen interest in the evidence you have for
that. However, I don't think they'd find "profit is a great motivator" to
be
very persuasive as evidence.

Nope! I intended to say "Who cares if the Clinton administration was
corrupt? At least they kept Al
Qaeda out of New York."

In fact, that's exactly what I said!

Let me try to explain it in simple terms.

The Clinton administration was quite successful in it's efforts to keep Al
Qaeda at bay. The Bush administration oversaw an attack which resulted in
the deaths of over 3000 Americans.

So, when I say "Who cares if the Clinton administration was corrupt? At
least they kept Al
Qaeda out of New York." - I am referring to the fact that Clinton did a
much better job of protecting American lives.

You seem to think that semen stains are worse than dead Americans!!
