In your experience, are American southerners also cowards as Don is saying?

I don't recall Don saying that. Is that a lie, or could you show where
he did?

"Must be southern boys running those organizations. Y'all sure do panic and then cut and run

I suppose 'southern' doesn't mean 'southern', and 'panic and cut and run' doesn't imply cowardice.

John H. -- Hope you're having a great day!


YOU said: "also cowards as Don is saying?" That is a lie, Don never said
that. The words "cut and run" can mean any number of things. Instead of
asking Don directly what he meant by that, you just started making
ASSumptions, that then turned into you lying.


I made a mistake responding to you.

You belong on the same pedestal as Don.

Perhaps you'd care to give us the meaning *you* give to the phrase, 'panic and then cut and run'.
That would be interesting, especially as it applies to those folks with whom you had so much
experience.

John H. -- Hope you're having a great day!


It matters not what I think the meaning of the phrase is, I didn't say
it. But, what I don't do is ASSume that it means something, and then
produce a lie based on that ASSumption.

Are you really that much of an idiot?

"Cut and run is a pejorative phrase used in the context of a war or battle meaning cowardly retreat. Thus, stripped of emotional connotation, the phrase simply means withdraw or retire from the conflict at issue. The added pungency of the phrase comes from the partially obscured implication that this withdrawal is a course only undertaken by dishonorable fools whose fear and confusion has overcome their better judgment."

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cut_and_run

Just for one cite.

We all know you love to argue, and don't mind looking like an embicile while doing so, but c'mon... really?

Oh, I see them and I think they are disgusting. But it's also
interesting to me to see how people interpret events in life and how
they justify their own decisions.

Harry obviously never served in the military. He never "served" period
(Peace Corps or other) to my knowledge. He said he spent some time in
'Nam identifying dead bodies but my impression is that it wasn't
something he did as a service to his country or even his fellow man. I
have the impression he did it because the pay was good. I think he has
said he was originally sent as a journalist but the job was cancelled or
something by the time he arrived.

I treat your buddy FlaJim and John the Racist and a couple of other
right wing assholes here with the same respect they treat other posters.
Your buddies like to **** on Don and a few others, so I feel it only
fair to **** on them. You've told me you think your boy FlaJim's posts
are funny. I don't see many of them, but the ones I do so remind me of
the little boys in the 7th grade who thought they were funny smartasses
but, in fact, they were only asses. From what I have seen, that's about
all your boy FlaJim does here...**** on other posters. Why you think
that is funny is beyond my understanding.

That's right. I was never in the military.

No, I was not sent as a journalist. I had written a number of newspaper
and magazine feature stories on farming and ranching while I was in the
Kansas City area. They were noticed by some of the "locals" of the USDA
and I was recruited by that agency to work on a "pacification" program
in Vietnam that involved exporting U.S. farming technical knowledge to
local farmers in that country. The bucks were not that attractive but
the assignment was. So, I was trained and was flown to Saigon for a
short training session before going out in the field. About the same
time my training was completed, I got word that the program for which I
had trained had been cancelled. I was offered a choice of being shipped
home or being seconded to the DIA for "another" assignment. I chose the
latter. The bucks there were not attractive, either.
